NCT01173666

Brief Summary

The Stenting of Renal Artery Stenosis in Coronary Artery Disease (RASCAD) study is a randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effect of renal artery stenting+medical therapy versus medical therapy alone on left ventricular mass progression and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients affected by coronary artery disease and renal artery stenosis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Left Ventricular Mass (LVMI, g/m2) changes

    Intervention in patients with RAS was hypothesized to produce a reduction in LVMI in a range between 5 to 10 g/m2. By using a 2-sided 2-sample t-test, it was calculated that a sample size of 168 patients (84 in the revascularization arm and 84 in the medical management arm) provides a 80% power to detect as significant (p\<0.01) a difference of -4.0 g/m2 between patients in the revascularization arm (expected change in LVMI: -9.2 ± 7.9 g/m2) and those in the medical management arm (expected change in LVMI: -5.2 ± 5.9 g/m2).

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Cardiovascular mortality and morbidity

    5 years

  • Progression of renal function

Study Arms (2)

Drug therapy

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients will be treated by standard medical therapy.

Drug: Medical therapy

Drug therapy + stenting angioplasty

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be treated by standard medical therapy + stenting angioplasty of renal artery.

Procedure: stenting angioplasty plus medical therapy

Interventions

Patients will be treated by stenting angioplasty of renal artery plus medical therapy. Medical therapy is based on antihypertensive, statin or antiplatelet drugs according to clinical indications.

Drug therapy + stenting angioplasty

Patients will be treated by standard medical therapy. Medical therapy is based on antihypertensive, statin or antiplatelet drugs according with clinical indications.
