Filter by:Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly effective to treat Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions in coronary arteries. This trial will examine modern dissection and re-entry approaches to treat more complex CTO lesions with the Absorb Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold (BVS).
The purpose of this study is to understand routine use of FFR (Fractional Flow Reserve) and alternate indices in clinical practice. This study will determine the use and clinical outcome of FFR-guided PCI in patients presenting with either stable coronary artery disease, or in patients presenting with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) on culprit and non-culprit lesions as well as during index and secondary procedures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel dual drug-eluting stent (DXR stent), which slowly releases both cilostazol and paclitaxel, for strut coverage, malapposition, and thrombus formation, assessed by an optical coherence tomography.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BVS(Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold) implantation with optimal medical therapy can improve the outcome of patients with variant angina and moderate coronary artery disease.
Regional absolute myocardial blood flow during stress (sMBF) as measured by Positron Emission Tomography (PET) improves post mechanical revascularization provided there is a baseline stress induced perfusion defect. Coronary revascularization performed on regions without a stress induced perfusion defect does not increase the sMBF.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether high intensity interval training (INT) is more effective in suppressing platelet reactivity than continuous, moderate intensity training (CONT) in patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation after percutaneous coronary intervention.
The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of polymer-free sirolimus-eluting coronary stent system (NANO plus) in patients with coronary artery disease . The primary endpoint is target lesion failure, a composite endpoint of cardiac death, target vessel related myocardial infarction and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization at 1 year follow-up.
The Bifurcation ABSORB OCT Trial is a prospective, randomized (1:1) evaluation of the efficacy and performance of single ABSORB everolimus eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold provisional strategy in the treatment of (a) coronary bifurcation lesion(s) in consecutive subjects with and without fenestration towards the side branch. Patients included in this study will be divided into three different cohorts: - Cohort A (patient 1-20): Angiographic FU with OCT at 12 months. - Cohort B (patient 21-40): Angiographic FU with OCT at 24 months. - Cohort C (patient 41-60): Angiographic FU with OCT at 36 months. All patients will also have telephone FU at 30 days, 12, 24 and 36 months. Inclusion of patients in the BISORB OCT trial stopped in November 2016 after safety concerns of the ABSORB BVS were reported. BISORB OCT included 3 patients, which were all included in the Academic Medical Center
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single intracoronary infusion of an adenovirus serotype 5 virus expressing the gene for human fibroblast growth factor-4 (Ad5FGF-4) is effective in improving angina-limited exercise duration, angina functional class, frequency of angina attacks, frequency of nitroglycerin usage, and quality of life. Half of the study participants will receive Ad5FGF-4, and half will receive placebo. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline to Month 6 in Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) duration. Long-term safety of Ad5FGF-4 will also be assessed.
A total of 30 subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. Thirty subjects without AD matched for sex, age and coronary artery disease risk factor with the AD subjects will also be included. All subjects will undergo the following imaging procedures: a 18FDG-PET to quantify vascular inflammation in the ascending aorta and carotids and a MDCT to calculate the Agatston score. Skin and blood biomarkers will also be assessed.
