This is a multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, double-blinded trial to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the CADence device in detecting the existence of clinically significant coronary artery disease as determined by either standard or CT angiography.
Full description
This is a multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, double-blinded, trial to evaluate the performance of the CADence in detecting the existence of at least one major coronary artery with clinically significant stenosis in a subject is defined as the presence of at least one lesion with ≥ 70% diameter stenosis anywhere in the proximal Left anterior Descending, mid Left anterior Descending, proximal Left Circumflex, mid Left Circumflex , proximal Right Coronary Artery, mid Right Coronary Artery, distal Right Coronary Artery and Obtuse Margin 1, Obtuse Margin 2, and Ramus Intermedius if segment diameter >2.5 mm or ≥50% diameter stenosis in the Left Main coronary arteries.
Consented subjects will be evaluated with the CADence device and then undergo nuclear stress testing followed by either computed tomography or standard coronary angiography. The maximum expected timeframe between CADence and computed tomography Angiography or standard angiography is 6 weeks.
This is a double-blinded study. All physicians and subjects will be masked to the diagnostic results of the CADence until completion of CADence, nuclear stress, computed tomography or standard coronary angiogram testing for the subjects. Patient care will not be based on the CADence results.
Study participation will conclude after the computed tomography angiography or standard coronary angiography procedure.
computed tomograph or standard coronary angiography are considered acceptable clinical reference standards in this study and are gold standards for detection of coronary artery disease. The experimental unit of this study is the subject. Existence of clinically significant coronary artery disease in a subject is defined as the presence of at least one lesion with ≥ 70% diameter stenosis anywhere in the proximal Left anterior Descending, mid Left anterior Descending, proximal Left Circumflex, mid Left Circumflex, proximal Right Coronary Artery, mid Right Coronary Artery, distal Right Coronary Artery and Obtuse Margin 1, Obtuse Margin 2, and Ramus Intermedius if segment diameter >2.5 mm or ≥50% diameter stenosis in the Left Main coronary arteries.
The study required sample size is 826 but may enroll up to 1,300 subjects. The sensitivity and specificity of the CADence are expected to be 80% and 73% respectively. Observed sensitivity and specificity will be compared to nuclear stress literature-based performance standards of 83% and 80% respectively using one sample non-inferiority binomial tests with a non-inferiority margin of 15 percentage points. Sample size requirements are 109 subjects with the presence of at least one lesion with ≥ ≥ 70% diameter stenosis anywhere in the proximal Left anterior Descending, mid Left anterior Descending, proximal Left Circumflex, mid Left Circumflex, proximal Right Coronary Artery, mid Right Coronary Artery, distal Right Coronary Artery and Obtuse Margin 1, Obtuse Margin 2, and Ramus Intermedius if segment diameter >2.5 mm or ≥50% diameter stenosis in the Left MAIN coronary arteries. to test the sensitivity hypothesis and 268 subjects without the presence of at least one lesion with ≥ 70% diameter stenosis anywhere in the proximal Left anterior Descending, mid Left anterior Descending, proximal Left Circumflex, mid Left Circumflex, proximal Right Coronary Artery, mid Right Coronary Artery, distal Right Coronary Artery and Obtuse Margin 1, Obtuse Margin 2, and Ramus Intermedius if segment diameter >2.5 mm or ≥50% diameter stenosis in the Left MAIN coronary arteries. to test the specificity hypothesis. It was assumed that 15 percent of enrolled subjects would be found to have the presence of at least one lesion with ≥ 70% diameter stenosis anywhere in the proximal Left anterior Descending, mid Left anterior Descending, proximal Left Circumflex, mid Left Circumflex, proximal Right Coronary Artery, mid Right Coronary Artery, distal Right Coronary Artery and Obtuse Margin 1, Obtuse Margin 2, and Ramus Intermedius if segment diameter >2.5 mm or ≥50% diameter stenosis in the Left Main coronary arteries. In order to accrue 109 subjects with significant Coronary Artery Disease as defined in the protocol, 826 subjects must be enrolled. Sample sizes provide 85% power with alpha of 0.05 for each statistical test.
