SuperSaturated Oxygen Comprehensive Observational Registry (SSCORE)

August 18, 2026 updated by: TherOx
The SuperSaturated Oxygen Comprehensive Observational Registry (SSCORE) registry, a prospectively designed observational study, aims to evaluate the clinical utility, infarct size reduction, and cost-effectiveness of SSO2 Therapy versus PCI alone among patients with anterior AMI in routine clinical practice.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The goal of SSCORE is to collect real-world data from patients treated with SSO2 Therapy to determine its impact on the overall HF (heart failure) burden on patients and healthcare systems compared with usual care for treatment of patients with AMI. Additionally, the study will confirm infarct size reduction in patients treated with SSO2 Therapy compared to standard of care treatment. The SSCORE Registry will generate effectiveness and healthcare resource utilization data that will be used in cost-effectiveness analysis modeling.

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study will aim to prospectively enroll 500 subjects not treated with SuperSaturated Oxygen (SSO2) Therapy (Prospective Control Cohort), 500 subjects who received SSO2 Therapy in accordance with the product label (SSO2 Treated On-Label) and any subjects that receive SSO2 at an institution that meet criteria inclusion/exclusion (IE) criteria.

Description

Subjects screened for either the Prospective Control Cohort or the SSO2 Treated (On-Label) Cohorts must meet ALL the following baseline criteria:

Patients must be ≥ 18 years and ≤ 80 years of age

Presentation with AMI and successful revascularization of the infarct-related artery with PCI

The subject or their legally authorized representative has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to its provisions and has been provided and signed written informed consent, approved by the appropriate Institutional Review Board (IRB)

Treatment with SSO2 Therapy will be up to the physician's discretion and the decision will be made prior to enrollment in the study. Any subject that is treated with SSO2 Therapy and meets the baseline criteria should be invited to participate in the study.

Subjects who are in the Prospective Control Cohort as well as subjects enrolled in the SSO2 Treated On-Label Cohort must meet these additional criteria:

The primary culprit lesion must be in the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery

Successful primary PCI within 6 hours of symptom onset (defined as persistent symptoms that caused the patient to pursue medical care), as documented by <50% diameter residual angiographic stenosis and Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Grades 2 or 3 flow in the target vessel

No major complications such as presence of post-PCI dissection or perforation, serious bleeding, presence of cardiogenic shock (including the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or mechanical circulatory support (MCS)) before the end of PCI procedure

Not pregnant or nursing

Exclusion Criteria

Life expectancy of less than 2 years

No access to medical records from either the index hospitalization or subsequent outpatient visits

Currently participating in an interventional drug or device trial

cMRI Inclusion Criteria

Subjects will be included in the cMRI sub-study must meet all these criteria:

Meet all the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the overall study

Consent during index hospitalization to participate in the main study

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cardiovascular (CV) death or Heart Failure (HF) burden
Time Frame: Median of 1.5years
The clinical outcome will be a non-hierarchical composite measured during a median follow-up of 1.5 years (minimum of 1 year and maximum of 2 years). The composite will be analyzed as the time-to-first occurrence of CV death or HF event, defined as new/worsening HF requiring hospitalization or outpatient treatment.
Median of 1.5years
Infarct Size
Time Frame: 2-7 days after PCI
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging will be used to measure the co-primary endpoint of infarct size within 2-7 days after PCI in a subset of patients.
