NCT02350959

Brief Summary

The present study is intended to assess the vulnerability of plaques seen on CCTA by means of TVC Imaging System and to make comparisons between plaques with adverse plaque characteristics and ones without adverse plaque characteristics in terms of plaque volume and lipid core contents.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • the change of max LCBI(4mm): Lipid core burden index in 4 mm

    The primary endpoint for this study is the change of max LCBI(4mm) between initial and follow up angiography in non-target vessel

    1 year

  • Correlation between vulnerable plaque on CT and max LCBI(4mm)

    The other primary endpoint of this study is Vessel level correlation of vulnerable plaque on CT and LCBI(4mm)

    maximum duration of 3 months between CT and NIRS

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • the change of presence of maxLCBI(4mm) > 500

    1 year

  • the change of CT plaque vulnerability

    2years

Study Arms (2)

High dose statin

EXPERIMENTAL

In high dose statin group, atorvastatin 40mg will be used

Drug: Atorvastatin

Moderate dose statin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

in moderate dose statin group, atorvastatin 10mg will be used

Drug: Atorvastatin

Interventions

in moderate dosea statin group, atorvastatin 10mg will be used and maintained until follow up angiography

Moderate dose statin

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 20 years of older
  • Patients with typical chest pain or evidences of myocardial ischemia (e.g., stable, unstable angina, silent ischemia and positive functional study or reversible changes in the electrocardiogram (ECG) consistent with ischemia
  • Patients with signed informed consent
  • Confirmed coronary artery disease in computed tomography

You may not qualify if:

  • The past history of coronary artery disease (e.g., myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), etc.)
  • Less than 2-year life expectancy due to non-cardiac disease
  • If the subject cannot voluntarily agree in writing to participate in this study

  • Allergic reaction to iodinated contrast media
  • Significant renal dysfunction (Serum creatinine \> 1.5 mg/dl) 7 Heart rate ≥ 80 beats per minute even after treatment with a heart rate lowering medication which disable to take CCTA
  • \. Contraindications of either β blockers or nitroglycerin 9. The past history of complex congenital heart disease 10. Pregnant women or women with potential childbearing 11. Body mass index (BMI) exceeding 35 12. Irregular heartbeats which disable to take CCTA 13. Contraindications of statin due to hypersensitivity, past history of serious complication such as myopathy or increased liver enzyme more than 3 times of normal upper limit
