Follow-up With CT-FFR in CHD Patients After DCB
China92 participantsStarted 2021-06-01
Plain-language summary
In recent years, based on CCTA data, CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) developed by artificial intelligence and other technologies can provide both anatomical and functional information of coronary artery disease. Compared with CCTA alone, CT-FFR has a better ability to diagnose coronary ischemic lesions and can effectively reduce the need for unnecessary ICA, to predict revascularization more accurately.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion criteria
. Be able to understand the purpose of the test and sign the informed consent form.
. 6-12 months after DCB for coronary heart disease, there is no contraindication of coronary artery CTA examination.
. Non-target lesions of unplanned revascularization within 6 months.
. According to the clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations (such as EET, SPECT, CCTA), the attending doctor will make a comprehensive judgment on the patients who plan to undergo ICA.
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Proportion of non-obstructive coronary heart disease in ICA examination
Timeframe: Clinical follow-up at 6 months after ICA or CT-FFR
. Persistent or active symptoms of clinical instability, including acute chest pain (sudden onset), cardiogenic shock, unstable blood pressure (systolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg), severe congestive heart failure (NYHA heart function III or IV) or acute pulmonary edema.
. Acute myocardial infarction occurred within 7 days before selection.
. Patients with other severe diseases are not suitable to participate in clinical trials, such as history of complex congenital heart disease, sick sinus syndrome, long QT syndrome, severe arrhythmia or tachycardia, severe asthma, severe or extremely severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal dysfunction (serum creatinine level \> 2.0mg / dl or creatinine clearance \< 30ml/ Kg ·1.73m2).
. Allergic to iodinated contrast medium.
. Other serious allergic diseases such as allergic asthma.
