Filter by:This clinical trial will explore the safety and effect of GCSF-mobilized autologous ex vivo selected CD34 cells for the treatment of CMD in adults currently experiencing angina and with no obstructive coronary artery disease. Eligible subjects will receive a single intracoronary infusion of CLBS16.
The objective of this prospective, single-blind clinical investigation is to demonstrate the superiority of an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)-guided stent implantation strategy as compared to an angiography-guided stent implantation strategy in achieving larger post-PCI lumen dimensions and improving clinical cardiovascular outcomes in patients with high-risk clinical characteristics and/or with high-risk angiographic lesions.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of coronary stenting with the various types of drug-eluting stents (DES) and to determine clinical device and procedural success during commercial use of DES in the real world. The investigators will compare EES (Xience V/Promus and Xience Prime), SES (Cypher), ZES (Resolute Integrity, Endeavor Resolute, Endeavor), and BES (Biomatrix, Biomatrix Flex, and Nobori).
This project aims to assess coronary vessel response to isometric handgrip exercise (IHE) during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in children with T1D children and healthy controls. The investigators will compare the groups in terms of surrogate markers of intima media alteration and arterial stiffness, i.e. carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) and aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV).
The primary objective of this study was to investigate whether there is a clinically meaningful effect on QTc change from baseline relative to placebo after administration of 10 mg at steady state in patients with stable CAD (coronary artery disease).
This prospective randomized study elucidates the effects of exogenous nitric oxide delivered to the extracorporeal circulation circuit for cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury during coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
The investigators propose a pilot study using (1) MRI to assess coronary artery endothelial function, (2) brachial ultrasound to assess systemic endothelial function, (3) serum markers of inflammation and of endothelial cell function and (4) echocardiographic measures of left ventricular diastolic and systolic properties, before and following initiation of PCSK9 antibody in HIV positive subjects.
Recommendations for cardiovascular rehabilitation (CVR) encourage exercise training, primarily involving the aerobic system, to allow patients to regain independence in daily activities. However, the lactic anaerobic process is also involved during these activities (stair climbing, carrying loads, etc.). Hence there is a major interest in accurately assessing patients' anaerobic capacities in order to tailor suitable exercise programs. However, there are no functional tests specifically dedicated to the evaluation of lactic anaerobic metabolism and adapted to people with coronary disease. The investigators offer a dedicated test, the short and fast test (SFST), which can be applied in current clinical practice and has already been evaluated in a population of healthy subjects. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the safety, feasibility and validity of SFST in a population of patients with coronary artery disease.
Polymorphisms of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 enzyme has been consistently shown to modulate clopidogrel response. Accordingly, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning on the potential for reduced efficacy of clopidogrel among carriers of loss-of-function alleles (LOF) for CYP2C19 and suggest considering alternative antiplatelet therapies for these individuals. The pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of prasugrel and ticagrelor are not affected by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms. However, to date there are no head-to-head PD comparisons between these agents among patients with different CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms, which is currently under investigation in CAD patients undergoing PCI at UF Health-Jacksonville (UFJ 2014-12, NCT 02065479). In order to rule out play of chance findings, pharmacogenetic investigations require external validation cohorts to support the study findings. Therefore, the present randomized study is designed to serve as an external validation cohort conducted in patients with established CAD not undergoing PCI testing the non-inferiority in platelet reactivity of prasugrel versus ticagrelor among CYP2C19 LOF allele carriers.
The objective of this prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label trial is to evaluate the completeness of stent expansion following a strategy of lesion preparation with either a Super High-Pressure NC PTCA Balloon (OPN NC) or a Scoring PTCA Balloon (NSE Alpha) after unsuccessful lesion preparation with conventional NC balloon angioplasty in an angiographically well-defined group of patients with severely calcified coronary lesions (grade 3) undergoing coronary stent implantation (SYNERGY everolimus-eluting stent (EES)).
