Atorvastatin Pre-Treatment Influences the Risk of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Study 2 (TIPS-2)

February 2, 2010 updated by: University Hospital, Motol

Atorvastatin Pre-Treatment Influences the Risk of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Study 2

This study investigates potential protective effect of atorvastatin pre-treatment in patient with stable coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on chronic statin therapy. Patients are randomized into two groups: atorvastatin pre-treatment group (80mg atorvastatin seven days before PCI) and control group (PCI without atorvastatin pretreatment, chronic statin treatment). Endpoint is myocardial infarction measured by troponin I and creatine kinase myocardial band.

Detailed Description

This randomized study investigates potential protective effect of high dose atorvastatin pre-treatment in patient with stable coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and chronic statin therapy.

Two arms:

  1. atorvastatin pre-treatment group (80mg atorvastatin for seven days)
  2. control group (without atorvastatin pre-treatment, chronic statin treatment)

Primary endpoint:

Periprocedural myocardial infarction measured by troponin I level (time frame 24 hours)

Secondary endpoint:

Periprocedural myocardial infarction measured by creatine kinase myocardial band (time frame 24 hours)
