Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography Combined With CT-FFR in Intermediate-Risk Chest Pain Patients.
China2,000 participantsStarted 2026-04-01
Plain-language summary
This study aims to investigate the guiding value of coronary CTA combined with CT-FFR in diagnostic and treatment decision-making for emergency chest pain patients at moderate risk, as well as its impact on clinical outcomes. Through a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial, this research compares the preventive effects of early application of this technology versus standard care on major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), with the goal of optimizing the diagnostic and treatment processes for emergency chest pain patients.

Questions worth asking your doctor
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
Incidence of Major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), defined as the composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, coronary revascularization, and unstable angina pectoris
Timeframe: The enrollment phase will last for 2 years, and follow-up for all participants will continue until 12 months after the last participant is enrolled.
. Concomitant severe congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] class III-IV or left ventricular ejection fraction \[LVEF\] \< 30%) or acute pulmonary edema;
. Severe hepatic insufficiency (Child-Pugh score ≥ C, or aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\] \> 5× upper limit of normal); severe renal insufficiency (estimated glomerular filtration rate \[eGFR\] ≤ 30 mL/min/1.73 m²) or patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis, or peritoneal dialysis;
. History of prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG);
