Filter by:The aim of this study is to determine whether biodegradable polymer based rapamycin-eluting stent performs equal to permanent polymer based everolimus- and rapamycin-eluting stents regarding reduction of adverse cardiac events at one year.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two different drug-eluting stents (Everolimus and Zotarolimus-eluting) for treatment of unprotected left main coronary artery disease.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of Rapamycin- and Zotarolimus-Eluting stents for the reduction of Coronary Restenosis
The study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of radial approach in patients undergoing coronary catheterisation without any restrictions based on the results of Allen's test.
The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the safety and feasibility of treating coronary artery lesions which have not been previously treated with the TRIMAXX Coronary stent system as compared to the reported results for commercially available non-drug eluting coronary stent systems which are indicated for the same treatments.
The purpose of this study in humans with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) treatable by PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous delivery of recombinant granulocyte colony stimulating factor rG-CSF (Filgrastim, Neupogen®, Amgen Switzerland) with regard to the promotion of collateral growth.
This trial is to compare PB127 echocardiography to other heart imaging studies.
This trial is to compare PB127 echocardiography to other heart imaging studies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate preparation and administration of PB127, echocardiographic images obtained during PB127 administration, and evaluate the safety of PB127.
Several risk factors including high cholesterol contribute to heart disease. We know that lowering triglycerides and raising HDL (protective cholesterol) in men reduces the risk for heart disease. We expect that women will share this same benefit because the combination of high triglycerides and low HDL appears to be a more important risk for heart disease in women. Niacin reduces triglycerides and raises HDL. We also expect to see improvement in markers of inflammation and clot formation and blood vessel health, which we hypothesize should all confer a reduced risk of heart disease in women. Women already taking lipid lowering statin will receive niacin therapy. We will measure blood lipid levels, markers of inflammation and clotting as well as a non-invasive measure of blood vessel reactivity. After 3 months of therapy we will repeat these measures.
