NCT02798731

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of early microvascular disease assessed by coronary physiologic indices such as fractional flow reserve (FFR), coronary flow reserve (CFR), index of microvascular resistance (IMR) on future occurrence of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in heart transplant recipients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Rates of cardiac death between patients with or without overt microvascular disease (CFR≤2 and IMR≥25) diagnosed with physiologic evaluation at 2-year follow-up after heart transplantation

    72 months

  • Acute cellular rejection between patients with or without overt microvascular disease

    72 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Occurrence of anatomically significant cardiac allograft vasculopathy (% diameter stenosis > 50% on CCTA)

    72 months

  • Comparison of total aggregated plaque volume and presence of adverse plaque characteristics on CCTA between transplant patients with or without overt microvascular disease (CFR≤2 and IMR≥25).

    72 months

  • Comparison of all-cause mortality in transplant patients with or without overt microvascular disease (CFR≤2 and IMR≥25) diagnosed with physiologic evaluation at 2-year follow-up after heart transplantation.

    24 months

  • Comparison of rates of cardiac death in transplant patients with or without overt microvascular disease (CFR≤2 and IMR≥25) diagnosed with physiologic evaluation at 1-year follow-up after heart transplantation.

    72 months

  • Comparison of IVUS and physiologic indices in prediction of CAV progression.

    72 months
