CREDENCE and PACIFIC-1 study data demonstrate potential power of AI-QCT ISCHEMIA
DENVER: Cleerly, the company on a mission to create a new standard of care to aid in the diagnosis of heart disease, shared findings from a study published online in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology: Cardiovascular Imaging on March 13, 2024. The study describes the validation of Cleerly's artificial intelligence-guided quantitative coronary CT angiography (AI-QCT) ISCHEMIA technology for diagnostic accuracy and prognostic risk stratification.
In two trials,1-2 the CREDENCE and PACIFIC-1 studies comprised a total of 513 patients who underwent coronary CT angiography, myocardial perfusion imaging with single photon emission CT (SPECT), and fractional flow reserve derived from CT (FFRCT). For patients with an abnormal Cleerly AI-QCT ISCHEMIA finding, a positive result was associated with an approximately 7-fold increase of adverse cardiovascular events during an 8-year follow-up. Collectively, this study shows that Cleerly AI-QCT ISCHEMIA, when used in conjunction with Cleerly LABS, can provide a 3-in-1 approach for the assessment of atherosclerosis, stenosis and ischemia.
"This pivotal study was performed in two different international populations which shows that CCTA analyzed with the Cleerly AI-QCT ISCHEMIA device provides an accurate assessment of coronary ischemia,” said James P. Earls, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Cleerly. “These promising findings offer the possibility of a novel care paradigm for symptomatic coronary artery disease evaluation that performs comprehensive analysis of atherosclerosis, stenosis and ischemia from a single non-invasive CCTA test, which may offer the benefit of guiding clinical decision making for both coronary revascularization and medical therapy."
These study results come after Cleerly announced that its Cleerly ISCHEMIA software device is billable using the new Category I CPT® code 75580.
