NCT02008110 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 360

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Preliminary data suggest a potential role for monitoring and up-titrate pharmacological therapy of plasma levels of antigen carbohydrate 125 (CA125) following and admission for acute heart failure (AHF).

This study will evaluate the effect of a CA125-guided management strategy versus standard therapy on the composite endpoint of 1-year all-cause mortality or readmission for AHF in patients recently discharged for AHF.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

CA125 guided strategy

Up titration of loop diuretics according to plasma levels of CA125 in the active arm

DRUG

CA125 guided strategy

Consider statins in all patients in the active arm

DRUG

CA125 guided strategy

Consider omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the active arm

OTHER

CA125 guided strategy

Frequency of monitoring according plasma evolution of CA125 in the active arm.

DRUG

Standard treatment strategy

All patients should be treated following standard european guidelines regarding angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers, aldosterone antagonists, diuretics, ivabradine and other treatments such as (diet, anticoagulants, antiarrhythmics, statins, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, digoxin, nitrates and vasoactive group).
