Brief summary

This trial is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo, parallel controlled study. Objectively evaluates the curative effect of Huoxin Pills (concentrated pills) intervention on improving the prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease after drug-coated balloon implantation from a functional point of view. Huoxin Pill(concentrated pills), a traditional Chinese medicine, has been prescribed widely in the treatment of coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and other diseases.440 patients were selected and followed up for one year. The quantitative blood flow score of the target vessel, late lumen loss, MACE incidence, and safety index were observed at 12 months.

Detailed description

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is currently the main treatment for coronary heart disease. Drug-coated balloon (DCB) is an emerging interventional therapy technology. DCB can effectively reduce the incidence of vascular restenosis and cardiovascular composite event endpoints after PCI. However, the incidence of target lesion failure and major adverse cardiac event (MACE) of DCB in the treatment of primary coronary artery disease within one year after surgery can also reach more than 10%. Therefore, how to reduce vascular restenosis after DCB and other related cardiovascular composite endpoint events through the combination of DCB and drug therapy is a potential development direction of existing DCB therapy. The research results of Chinese scholars have shown that the traditional Chinese medicine of replenishing qi and activating blood circulation can significantly reduce the restenosis rate after PCI, the recurrence rate of angina pectoris and the incidence of cardiovascular composite endpoint in three and six months after PCI. It has significant clinical efficacy in improving the symptoms and prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease such as angina pectoris. In addition, basic research has further shown that Huoxin Pill (concentrated pill) can significantly reduce the degree and scope of myocardial ischemia and has the effects of dilating coronary artery and improving microcirculation. Quantitative flow fraction (QFR) technology is the new method with the most sufficient clinical evidence in recent years, and can rapidly calculate the coronary stenosis-related lesions and severity of the diseased vessels in real time during the operation. Therefore, in this study, the QFR technology was used to evaluate the postoperative efficacy of DCB and the combination of Huoxin Pill (concentrated pill). This trial is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo, parallel controlled study. Objectively evaluates the curative effect of Huoxin Pills (concentrated pills) intervention on improving the prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease after drug-coated balloon implantation from a functional point of view. Huoxin Pill(concentrated pills), a traditional Chinese medicine, has been prescribed widely in the treatment of coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and other diseases.440 patients were selected and followed up for one year. The quantitative blood flow score of the target vessel, late lumen loss, MACE incidence, and safety index were observed at 12 months.

Interventions

DRUGYuekang Huoxin Pills (concentrated pills)

Huoxin Pill (concentrated pill) is composed of Radix Ginseng, Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata, Ganoderma, Flos Carthami, artificial Moschus, cultured calculus bovis in vitro, Fel Ursi, Margarita, Venenum Bufonis, and Borneolum Syntheticum. It has the effect of invigorating qi and promoting blood circulation. It has been marketed in China for more than 30 years. Clinical studies have shown that Huoxin Pill (concentrated pill) has significant clinical efficacy in improving the symptoms and prognosis of coronary heart disease and angina pectoris. Basic studies have also confirmed that Huoxin Pill (concentrated pill) can play a role in myocardial protection by dilating coronary arteries and promoting angiogenesis.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
QFRAt the end of the 12-month follow-upquantitative flow fraction was measured by coronary angiography at 12-month follow-up. The AngioPlus system (Pulse Medical Imaging Technology, Shanghai Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China) is used for computation of QFR in this trial. n order to obtain accurate QFR measurement, analysts are required to follow the SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) for angiographic image acquisition.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
QFR change valueAt the end of the 12-month follow-upquantitative flow fraction change value was measured by coronary angiography in 12-month Drug intervention. The AngioPlus system (Pulse Medical Imaging Technology, Shanghai Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China) is used for computation of QFR in this trial. n order to obtain accurate QFR measurement, analysts are required to follow the SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) for angiographic image acquisition.
Late Lumen Loss Late lume lossAt the end of the 12-month follow-upThe software was used to automatically profile the artery by subtracting the minimum lumen diameter at the 12-month follow-up from the minimum lumen diameter immediately after coronary angiography within the drug-coating balloon.
incidence of main adverse cardiac events composite endpoints incidence of cardiovascular composite endpointsAt the end of the 12-month follow-upthe occurrence of death, myocardial infarction and revascularization
