Global Observational Study to Evaluate the Correlation Between Coronary and Carotid Atherosclerotic Disease (CAD) and Links with Clinical Outcomes
Description
Detailed Description
Observational study to collect F/U imaging & clinical endpoint data from pts. who successfully completed baseline coronary IVUS (intravascular ultrasound) imaging in the dal-PLAQUE 2 (DP2) study to determine the correlation & clinical relevance of such imaging as related to coronary artery disease (CAD). Pts. who have had baseline angiography/IVUS, with or w/o baseline carotid ultrasound but NOT undergone follow-up angiography/IVUS as part of DP2 will have F/U angiogram/IVUS within 18-27 mos. of baseline imaging. Pts. who have had baseline carotid ultrasound but NOT undergone a F/U carotid ultrasound as part of DP2 will have follow-up carotid ultrasound within 18-27 mos. of baseline imaging. Main objectives is to compare: extent of atherosclerosis in coronary arteries with the extent of atherosclerosis in carotid arteries at a single point in time. Pts. who have successfully undergone baseline IVUS imaging, with or w/o baseline carotid ultrasound, in DP2 will be included. Pts., who successfully completed baseline angiography/IVUS in DP2, with or w/o baseline carotid ultrasound, will be scheduled for final F/U angiography/IVUS any time between 18-27 mos. after DP2 baseline imaging. Pts. who successfully completed baseline carotid ultrasound in DP2 will be scheduled for F/U carotid ultrasound any time between 18 -27 mos. after DP2 baseline imaging. Endpoints: death, death from coronary heart disease, resuscitated cardiac arrest, non-fatal MI, stroke, hospitalization for documented acute coronary syndrome, coronary revascularization procedure & carotid artery surgery or angioplasty. Pts. will have annual phone contact for 3 yrs. to check for the occurrence of cardiovascular & cerebrovascular clinical endpoints. Imaging parameters from this study will be combined with the imaging data from DP2 to compare coronary & carotid atherosclerosis extent at baseline & rate of progression up to 2 yrs.
