Study summary

This is a prospective cross-sectional, single-center retinal imaging study expecting to enroll approximately 400 male and female subjects ≥ 18 years of age. Subjects having undergone clinically-indicated coronary angiography or coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) within one month of consent at the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) will be screened for inclusion in the study.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective cross-sectional, single-center retinal imaging study expecting to enroll aproximately 400 (280 CAD and 120 control) male and female subjects ≥ 18 years of age. Subjects having undergone clinically-indicated invasive coronary angiography or coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) within one month of signed consent will be screened for inclusion in the study.

Subjects will be recruited at the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI). During the screening visit, the investigator will review inclusion/exclusion criteria and the following information will be collected: demographic data including age and sex, relevant medical history including risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking and obesity), history of CAD, concomitant cardiovascular medications and laboratory tests (lipid profile, fasting glucose) Subjects who provide written informed consent will undergo cognitive evaluation and an ophthalmic examination to identify any ocular exclusion criteria. All eligible subjects will then undergo hyperspectral retinal imaging using a Metabolic Hyperspectral Retinal Camera (MHRC)

Safety will be assessed through reporting of serious adverse events (SAEs) related to retinal imaging procedures.

Study population

A sample size of 400 (280 CAD and 120 control) subjects was chosen to allow for the estimation of the sensitivity and specificity of classification models with an acceptable precision, the latter defined as the corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

Subjects having undergone clinically-indicated invasive coronary angiography or coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) within one month of signed consent will be screened for inclusion in the study.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Ability and willingness to give written
  • Age 18 years or older at the time of informed consent
  • Stable (non-emergent) typical or atypical symptoms suspicious for CAD (e.g., chest pain, chest tightness, chest burning, shoulder pain, palpitations, jaw pain, or non-chest pain symptoms such as dyspnea or worsening effort tolerance.
  • Patients having undergone clinically-indicated invasive coronary angiography or coronary computed tomography angiography within one month before consent signature

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. At Screening Visit 1:

    1. Asymptomatic subjects
    2. Previous coronary revascularization (e.g., coronary artery bypass graft surgery, stenting)
    3. Subjects being evaluated for other cardiac diseases (e.g., valvular disease, cardiomyopathy)
    4. Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  2. At Study Visit 2 or Ocular Exclusion Criteria:

    1. Medium or high opacity of the lens
    2. Bleeding in vitreous
    3. Pupillary dilation inadequate or
    4. Deficient visual fixation
    5. Refractive error outside of the range -15 to +15
    6. Inability to obtain satisfactory images with the MHRC
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of a pre-specified classification model based on retinal imaging parameters

    Sensitivity and specificity of a pre-specified classification model based on retinal imaging parameters to discriminate between control subjects and subjects with CAD (defined as stenosis in at least one epicardial vessel of 50% or greater) as assessed by coronary angiography.

    Time frame: 1.5 year

Secondary outcomes

  1. Correlation between retinal imaging parameters and the number of vessels with a stenosis of 50% or greater as assessed by coronary angiography.

    Time frame: 1.5 year

  2. Correlation between retinal imaging parameters and the maximal severity of coronary artery stenosis as assessed by coronary angiography.

    Time frame: 1.5 year

  3. Sensitivity and specificity of new classification models based on retinal imaging parameters

    Sensitivity and specificity of new classification models based on retinal imaging parameters to discriminate between control subjects and subjects with CAD (defined as stenosis in at least one epicardial vessel of 50% or greater) as assessed by coronary angiography.

    Time frame: 1.5 year

  4. Correlation between retinal imaging parameters and cognitive scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and executive tasks

    Time frame: 1.5 year

  5. Sensitivity and specificity, among CAD subjects, of a pre-specified classification model, as well as new classification models

    Sensitivity and specificity, among CAD subjects, of a pre-specified classification model, as well as of new classification models, based on retinal imaging parameters to discriminate between subjects with less severe CAD (less vessels with a stenosis of 50% or greater) and subjects with more severe CAD (more vessels with a stenosis of 50% or greater) as assessed by coronary angiography.

    Time frame: 1.5 year

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 23, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
