NCT03315234

Brief Summary

The purpose of the research project is to investigate the potential association of 6 genetic polymorphisms with the complexity and the severity of coronary artery disease (SYNTAX score). The aim of the study is to combine genetic, clinical and laboratory data in order to create a prognostic tool that will enable an individualized therapeutic patient approach.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Relationship between genetic risk variants and the SYNTAX score [All-comers population]

    The investigators will evaluate the effects of 6 known genetic variants associated with risk of Coronary Artery Disease on the extend and severity of coronary atherosclerosis \[as assessed by the SYNTAX score\] in patients with significant CAD on coronary angiography, both individually and combined in a Genetic Risk Score

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • MACCEs

    12 months

  • Predictive value of combining a Genetic Risk Score & SYNTAX score for the prediction of 1-year MACCEs

    12 months

  • Ankle-Brachial Index

    At hospital admission

  • Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

    At hospital admission & 12 months after discharge from hospital

  • Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio

    At hospital admission

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

SYNTAX score = 0

Patients with nonobstructive CAD (≤50 % diameter stenosis)

Genetic: SNPs associated with CAD

0 < SYNTAX score < 23

Low SYNTAX group

Genetic: SNPs associated with CAD

SYNTAX score ≥ 23

Intermediate-High SYNTAX group

Genetic: SNPs associated with CAD

Interventions

Genotyping will be carried out by Real-Time PCR

0 < SYNTAX score < 23SYNTAX score = 0SYNTAX score ≥ 23
