Implementing the 6th Generation Cardiac Troponin T
Implementing the 6th Generation Cardiac Troponin T: A Stepped Wedged Cluster-randomized Trial
This study will test how a new blood test for troponin T can be introduced into routine hospital care in Denmark and Norway. The study will look at whether the new test helps doctors assess and treat patients with possible heart problems more effectively and safely.

详细说明
Background Cardiac troponin (cTn) is the key biomarker for diagnosing myocardial infarction (MI). There are two cardiac specific isoforms of cTn, cTnT and cTnI, considered equal in contemporary guidelines. About half of hospitals in Denmark and two thirds of Norwegian providing acute cardiovascular care use cTnT from Roche Diagnostics in routine practice. An improved version of this assay has recently been developed, named the 6th generation cTnT. This novel assay expected to be implemented worldwide within the next years, but there is still limited data comparing it with the previous generation of cTnT. We aim to implement and test the use of the new 6th generation cTnT assay in Danish-Norwegian collaborative, stepped-wedge trial.
Methods This will be a stepped-wedged cluster-randomized implementation study investigating the medical and practical real-life consequences of switching from the 5th to the 6th generation cTnT assay in routine use. All hospitals using cTnT in either Denmark or Norway will be invited to participate in the study. Centers will be randomized to an implementation date. The hospital should switch assay within 1-15 days after the applicable deadline. Following admission, patients will be followed through national registries.
Assay specifics The 6th generation cTnT assay is expected to have a limit of quantification at 1.5 ng/L and an analyti-cal variation of 3% at the 99th upper reference limit. All sites will use the reference values estimated in the assay insert.
Timeline There will be 7 centers in Denmark and 4 centers in Norway in the study. Data collection will begin on the 1st of August 2026 with the first centers expected to switch on the 1st of October 2026. This will mean that the final center will switch on the 1st of August 2027, and the primary results will be available by the end of March 2028. Each laboratory will receive a plan for local analytical verification of the assay.
Collaboration The study is designed and performed as a collaborative effort between Danish and Norwegian re-searchers and led by Kristin Aakre, Rasmus Bo Hasselbalch, Torbjørn Omland and Kasper Iversen. All centers will be invited to participate and contributors fulfilling Vancouver criteria will be invited as authors of any publications. This implementation study will be performed in collaboration with the national societies of clinical biochemistry.
Ethics The project has been presented to the Danish regional ethics committee and is expected to receive a waiver for patient consent in this study. A similar ethical waiver has been given in Norway. The data will follow GDPR guidelines regarding data protection.
Power calculations In a stepped wedge design the period between successive interventions (i.e. stops) is the main design parameter. The study is designed as a primary superiority trial. Given 11 centers and an ex-pected event rate of about 4% and each center including between 200 and 800 patients a month, the study would have above 90% power to show an absolute risk difference of 0.8%. This calcula-tion was performed in collaboration with Professor Theis Lange.
