Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will assess the safety and feasibility of sonothrombolysis in the acute management of STEMI undergoing reperfusion therapy with systemic fibrinolysis as part of a pharmacoinvasive approach

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This study is an open label, single-centre, randomized investigation of sonothrombolysis in 60 adult patients presenting with STEMI within 6 hours of the onset of clinical symptoms and receiving perfusion therapy with fibrinolysis as part of a pharmacoinvasive strategy.
Patients will be randomized 2:1 to either adjunct treatment with sonothrombolysis or standard therapy alone according to the current American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) or European Society of Cardiology (ESC) STEMI and PCI guidelines. All patients will receive serial echocardiography assessments during and after reperfusion with the final ECHO assessment at 90 days (+/- 7d) post reperfusion. Patient outcomes (medical records review) will be followed for 1 year after reperfusion.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Complete ST-Segment Resolution [90 minutes post TNK administration]
ST-segment recovery as assessed by complete ST-segment resolution (>50%)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Frequency of rescue/urgent PCI [approximately 3-24 hours post TNK administration]
Frequency of rescue/urgent PCI following the administration of fibrinolysis.
- ST-segment resolution (>50%) [approximately 30 minutes post TNK administration]
ST-segment resolution (>50%) following a pharmacoinvasive approach at ~30 minutes post PCI as assessed by the worst lead on electrocardiogram
- ST-segment resolution (continuous) [approximately 30 minutes post TNK administration]
ST-segment resolution (continuous) following a pharmacoinvasive approach at ~30 minutes post PCI as assessed by the worst lead on electrocardiogram
- Left ventricular ejection fraction [Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction.]
Left ventricular ejection fraction by ECHO (Simpson method) assessed on Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction.
- Wall motion score index (WMSI) [Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction.]
Wall motion score index (WMSI) by ECHO assessed on Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction. Each of the 17 LV segments is classified as: 1 normal 2.hypokinetic 3.akinetic 4.dyskinetic The WMS index is the sum of the scores divided by the number of segments. Usually 17, but if a segment cannot be classified, the sum is divided by the number of readable segments. Minimum value is 1 : all segments are normal - best outcome Maximum value is 4: all segments are dyskinetic - worst outcome
- Microvascular perfusion score index (MPSI) [Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction.]
Microvascular perfusion score index (MPSI) by ECHO assessed on Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction Each of the 17 LV segments is classified as: normal, contrast replenishment within 4 seconds mildly reduced, contrast replenishment takes longer than 4 seconds no contrast replenishment over 10 seconds The MPSI index is the sum of the scores divided by the number of segments. Usually 17, but if a segment cannot be classified, then the sum is divided by the number of readable segments Minimum value is 1 : all segments are normal - best outcome Maximum value is 3: all segments are not perfused - worst outcome
- Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) [Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction.]
Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) by ECHO assessed on Day 1 (pre reperfusion), Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge), and Day 90 +/-2d after infarction GLS is measured using speckle tracking imaging (Epiq, Philips). The scale is - % which means percentage of longitudinal shortening of myocardial segments. Similar to the WMSI, GLS is calculated by dividing the sum of the longitudinal strain measurements in the myocardial segments segments by the number of segments which can be assessed by speckle tracking (18 when all segments in all 3 apical views can be analysed. The lower the absolute strain value the worse the LV function.
- QRS Score [Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge)]
Selvester QRS Scoring System, assessed on Day 3 +/-2d (hospital discharge) ECG. Minimum score 0, Maximum score 32. Higher score indicates worse outcome.
Other Outcome Measures
- Composite of death/shock, heart failure/new myocardial infarction in hospital [Until hospital discharge, approximately 5 days]
Composite of death/shock, heart failure/new myocardial infarction in hospital
- Composite of death/shock, heart failure/new myocardial infarction at 1-year [1 year]
Composite of death/shock, heart failure/new myocardial infarction at 1-year
- TIMI flow grade pre and post PCI on index angiogram [pre and post PCI on index angiogram, approximately 3-24 hours post TNK administration]
TIMI flow grade pre and post PCI on index angiogram
