Influence of Intensive Lipid-lowering on FFRCT (The FLOW-PROMOTE Study) (FlowPromote)

February 3, 2021 updated by: Bjarne Linde Noergaard

Influence of Intensive Lipid-lowering With Statin and Ezetimib Prescription on Computed Tomography Derived Fractional Flow Reserve in Patients With Stable Chest Pain (The FLOW-PROMOTE Study)

The FLOW-PROMOTE Study is an investigator-initiated, Danish multicenter study of patients with stable chest pain investigating whether lipid lowering is associated with recovery of impaired coronary flow as assessed by CT derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT).

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Multicenter study (4 centers in Denmark), including 120 patients with stable chest pain and hemodynamically significant coronary artery disease as assessed by FFRCT. By using two lipid lowering treatment strategies ("usual" vs "intensive" care) over 18 months, the effect on coronary plaque regression and flow recovery are assessed from repeated CT angiograms with plaque and FFRCT analyses at 9 and 18 months.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

40 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
18-month change in coronary flow
Time Frame: 18 months
Coronary flow will be assessed by repetitive FFRCT assessments (0,9 and 18 months)
18 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
18-month change high risk coronary plaque volumes
Time Frame: 18 months
Will be assessed by measuring low attenuation coronary plaque (LAP) volumes at repetitive CT angiograms (0,9, and 18 months)
18 months
18-month change in high risk coronary plaque features
Time Frame: 18-months
Will be assessed by quantifying the proportion of lesions with positive remodeling at repetitive CT angiograms (0,9, and 18 months).
18-months
18-month change in coronary vessel volumes
Time Frame: 18-months
Will be assessed by calculating the vessel volume relative to myocardial mass (V/M) ratio determined from repetitive CT angiograms (0,9, and 18 months).
18-months
18-month change in indices of coronary inflammation
Time Frame: 18-months
Will be assessed by the pericoronary fat attenuation index (FAI) determined from repetitive CT angiograms (0,9, and 18 months).
18-months

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Reproducibility assessment
Time Frame: 9-months
There will be performed 2 CTA investigations at the 9 month follow-up. Reproducibility assessment of CT derived FFR, plaque markers, FAI and V/M ratio will be performed by calculation of standard error of measurement and within-subject coefficient of variation.
