A Randomized Comparison of Personalized Therapy Mgmt Based On Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaque Vs. Usual Care for Symptomatic Patients With Suspicion of CAD
Purpose
PARAMOUNT is a prospective randomized open-label trial testing the hypothesis that a personalized management strategy in symptomatic patients with suspicion of coronary artery disease (CAD), using a CT-based coronary atherosclerotic plaque assessment by AI-enabled quantitative software improves: certainty for diagnosis of CAD, control of CAD risk factors and efficiency of ICA referral with appropriate PCI compared to the usual care strategy based on current AHA/ACC guidelines for care of symptomatic patients with suspicion of CAD.

Arm Groups
Arm | Description | Assigned Intervention |
---|---|---|
Experimental Coronary Plaque-Based Care |
Patients randomized to the Coronary Plaque-Based Care arm will undergo CCTA with AI-enabled quantitative assessment of the morphology and composition of coronary atherosclerotic plaque and will receive medical and interventional management informed by CCTA findings and per discretion of the treating physician. All patients will receive a standardized assessment of clinical and risk factor status at baseline and 180 days. |
|
No Intervention Usual Care |
Patients randomized to the Usual Care arm will be referred to their usual care providers for standard of care management post stress test findings, possibly including coronary angiography and/or revascularization per the treating provider's recommendation. All patients will receive a standardized assessment of clinical and risk factor status at baseline and 180 days. |
