Primary
Percentage of Participants With Reclassification of CAD Management, Assessed as the Therapeutic Recommendations Made Based on Review of Coronary CTA Alone Versus CTA + FFRCT, When Available, by a Central Integration Core Laboratory.
at 90 days
The reclassification rate of management plans was assessed by the blinded independent review committee and local physician teams separately. These evaluations are meant to assess the potential impact of FFRCT on downstream testing and clinical decision making but were not be used to determine actual patient care. This endpoint is aimed at determining the incremental value of FFRCT over coronary CTA alone in the management of stable angina. FFRCT is non-invasive method to determine FFR which computes the hemodynamic significance of CAD (FFRCT) from subject-specific cCTA data using computational fluid dynamics under rest and simulated maximal coronary hyperemic conditions (Taylor 2013).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Reclassification Between Investigator Management Plan Based on cCTA Alone Compared to Actual Clinical Managementat 90 daysCoronary computed tomography angiography-derived fractional flow reserve resulted in revision of the clinical management plan as determined by the site investigators.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Invasive Catheterization Without Obstructive DiseaseAt 90 days
Invasive catheterization without obstructive disease was measured by either site read coronary angiogram showing no stenosis of ≥ 50% or no invasively-measured FFR ≤ 0.80 in a segment distal to a stenosis.
SecondaryPercentage of Major Adverse Coronary Events (MACE) at 90 Days90 daysMACE is defined as the composite rate of all cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and unplanned hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) leading to urgent revascularization.
SecondaryPercentage of Individual Components of MACE at 90 Days90 daysIndividual components of MACE defined as all cause death, non-fatal MI, unplanned hospitalization for ACS leading to urgent revascularization
SecondaryCumulative Radiation Exposure From cCTA MilliSievert (mSv)Baseline
Cumulative radiation exposure calculated in non-invasive coronary diagnostic tests: cCTA effective radiation dose. Effective radiation dose measured as the product of dose-length product times for conversion coefficient for the chest (K = 0.026 mSv/mGy·cm).
SecondaryResource Utilization at 90 Days. Site-determined Post FFRCT Treatment Plan90 days
Resource utilization composite defined as the composite of invasive diagnostic and therapeutic coronary procedures and noninvasive cardiac testing. Site treating physician recommended clinical management strategies following coronary computed tomography angiography-derived fractional flow reserve.
