AI-driven prediction of non-target coronary lesion progression after PCI

DeVelopment of an Artificial Intelligence-Driven Dynamic Prediction and Precision Stratification System for Coronary Non-Target LesIon ProgressiON After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Multimodal Data-Enabled Multicenter Cohort Study in China

Observational China-Japan Friendship Hospital · NCT07312318

This project will test an AI tool that uses clinical data, blood biomarkers, and coronary imaging to see if it can predict which adults treated with PCI are likely to have progression of non-target coronary lesions.

What this trial studies

This multicenter observational cohort will combine clinical records, coronary imaging, and multi-omics blood biomarkers from over 52,000 Chinese patients who have undergone or are scheduled for PCI to build predictive models of non-target lesion (NTL) progression. Researchers plan to identify 2–3 blood biomarkers associated with future NTL progression and integrate those markers with imaging and clinical features. Machine learning models will be trained and validated on longitudinal follow-up data to generate a dynamic risk stratification and early-warning system. The work aims to produce a precision prediction tool for monitoring and guiding care rather than testing a therapeutic intervention.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults aged 18 or older who are scheduled for or have undergone PCI, can provide a baseline plasma sample, and are able to give informed consent are appropriate candidates.

Not a fit: People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have severe hepatic or renal dysfunction, active autoimmune disease, missing critical data, or who cannot attend participating Chinese centers are unlikely to benefit from this prediction-focused effort.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this could help identify patients at higher risk of lesion progression earlier so they can receive closer monitoring or targeted interventions to reduce future major cardiac events.

How similar studies have performed: Prior smaller AI and imaging studies have shown promise for predicting coronary events after PCI, but combining large-scale multi-omics, imaging, and clinical data in this way is relatively novel and not yet proven at scale.
