Screening for Coronary Artery Disease After Mediastinal Irradiation - Full Text View

Purpose

Survivors of Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) are known to have an increased risk of developing late treatment sequelae such as cardiovascular events due to coronary artery disease. At present no active screening is performed in these patients since it is not known whether screening and subsequent treatment by means of revascularization is effective in reducing the risk of cardiovascular events in symptomatic individuals. In the trial the efficacy and therapeutic consequences of screening for coronary artery diasease by multi-slice CT (MSCT) among asymptomatic HL survivors will be evaluated.

Further study details as provided by Leiden University Medical Center:

Primary Outcome Measures:

accurately identifying asymptomatic coronary artery disease [ Time Frame: one year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
to determine whether Ct coronary angiography as a screening method acuurately identifies asymptomatic coronary artery disease in a high risk poulation (HL survivors after mediastinal irradiation)

Secondary Outcome Measures:

prevalnce of cornary artery disease and frequency/type of subsequent intervention [ Time Frame: one year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
to establish the prevelence of coronary abnormalities in HL survivors treated with mediastinal irradiation, and to determine the frequency and type of subsequent interventions


Enrollment:	50
Study Start Date:	January 2011
Study Completion Date:	June 2013
Primary Completion Date:	June 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Intervention Details:

patient will undergo one CT coronary angiography

Detailed Description:

Objectives:

to determine whether MSCT as a screening method of HL survivors treated with mediastinal irradiation accurately identifies asymptomatic significant coronary artery disease.
to establish the prevelance of coronary abnormalities in HL survivors treated with mediastinal irradiation
to determine the frequency and type of intervention
to evaluate the acceptance of screening and asses quality of life among Hl survivors.

Study polulation:

50 long term survivors of HL, previously treatef with mediastinal irradiation without present evidence of cardiovascular disease

Intervention:

CT-coronary angiography and calcium score, to be performed as a screening method (to indicate further diagnostic treatent procedures)
