Filter by:The PRESET Registry--A Registry to Evaluate Patterns of Care Associated With the Use of Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) in Real World Clinical Care Settings (PRESET)--was designed as an observational, post-market, real-world registry to evaluate patterns of care, including referrals to a cardiologist, cardiac stress testing, CT angiography, within the first month after Corus CAD (ASGES) testing.
The investigators will do the study in two phases. The first phase will be a pilot study on up to 18 participants [patients 60 years or older with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) or patients who are eligible to undergo and participate in cardiac rehabilitation (CR)]; up to 6 participants each will be given oral daily rapamycin (0.5, 1, and 2mg) dose for the duration of CR. Baseline and follow-up data will be collected for age-associated impairment (AAI): frailty (primary endpoint) and quality of life (QOL),senescent-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)and abdominal/thigh subcutaneous adipose biopsy for measurement of adipocyte mitochondrial DNA copy number and to quantitate the number of senescent preadipocytes. Safety of rapamycin will be assessed by periodic clinical follow-up, blood draws, and serum rapamycin levels. Following completion of the pilot phase, the data will be analyzed. If favorable changes are noted in the SASP or AAI, the investigators will start a phase 2 randomized trial. Second phase: In a prospective, randomized, clinical trial design, patients 60 years or older will be randomized at the time of CR to a standardized exercise protocol, or exercise protocol with the addition of low-dose rapamycin to test the hypothesis whether low-dose rapamycin (demonstrated in the pilot trial to improve SASP/AAI) will improve measures of AAI, SASP, or findings on the fat biopsy as compared to exercise alone. The null hypotheses are that there is no improvement with rapamycin in measures of AAI or SASP.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect higher intensity interval exercise (HIIT) with standard intensity non-interval exercise on fitness in cardiac rehabilitation patients with CAD. Also to assess practical implementation of HIIT in cardiac rehabilitation.
This is a prospective, multi-center study examining the clinical impact of the Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) assay in approximately 250 evaluable subjects with no history of obstructive coronary artery disease who now present with chest pain or anginal-equivalent symptoms to a primary care physician (PCP) for evaluation.
The objective of this study is to collect data on the commercial use of Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) blood test to evaluate the clinical referral patterns of Primary Care Physicians after receipt of their patients' Corus Score, and to better understand patient management patterns for clinicians ordering the test.
This is a prospective, single-center study that aims to evaluate the acute and delayed effect of exercise stress testing on the peripheral gene expression (PGE) levels using a predefined gene set established in the Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) test in subject with known obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and in control subjects (without known CAD).
The purpose of this study is to measure the percentage of women with known Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) who are hyporesponsive to low dose (81 mg) aspirin.
Introduction: Different groups already showed in retrospective subgroup analyses, that there is an increased risk for cardiovascular events in patients on a simultaneous ASA/NSAID treatment. Methods: Light-Transmission aggregometry Hypothesis: Simultaneous administration of different NSAIDs and ASA impair the platelet inhibiting effect of ASA.
To investigate whether the use of Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) blood assay changes the diagnostic testing pattern in patients referred to a cardiologist for the evaluation of chest pain or anginal equivalent symptoms.
To validate the use of Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) blood assay in subjects who are referred for the work-up of coronary artery disease. The study will evaluate the clinical utility of a gene expression test Corus CAD (Age, Sex, Gene Expression Score - ASGES) in subjects referred for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) work-up for suspected obstructive atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). The Corus CAD (ASGES) is a gene expression test that quantify the expression of multiple genes from circulating peripheral blood cells to detect the presence of clinically significant obstructive CAD in patients with chest pain.
