Filter by:The purpose of this trial or study is to determine if pacemaker therapy can be a beneficial alternative to conventional medical therapy in patients with a history of moderate heart failure. The investigators are looking to enroll approximately 180 people in this trial. Patients will be randomized in two groups. One group will be implanted with a pacemaker and will continue to receive conventional medical therapy as prescribed by their doctor. The second group will continue to receive conventional medical therapy as prescribed by their doctor and will not be implanted with a pacemaker. Clinical histories, physical exams, and external device testing will be collected both at the time of enrollment in the trial and during follow-up study visits. Patients who enter the study will be seen for study visits at 1 month, 3 and 6 months.
This study is looking at whether the electrical treatment provided by a special type of pacemaker called a Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) pacemaker may keep a patient's heart failure from getting worse. When the lower heart chambers (i.e. ventricles) are electrically paced to beat together by the CRT pacemaker, blood may be pumped to the body more efficiently. The CRT pacemaker being studied in this clinical trial is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for patients with moderate to severe heart failure, whose hearts pump blood inefficiently. In the MIRACLE EF study, patients who have heart failure with slightly less inefficient hearts will be observed to see if the electrical pacing treatment is better than not getting the treatment. This study is being conducted to support FDA approval of this type of pacemaker for people whose heart failure is less inefficient.
The purpose of this study is to determine if udenafil improves exercise tolerance in patients with systolic heart failure.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind , placebo parallel controlled, standard therapy based phase III clinical trial, to evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human neuregulin-1 on cardiac remodeling, as well as safety in patients with chronic heart failure.
Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human Neuregulin-1 for Subcutaneous Administration in Patients With Chronic Systolic Heart Failure
The principal aim is to investigate the safety and efficacy of rosiglitazone in patients with chronic systolic heart (Dilated cardiomyopathy). We hypothesize that in patients with heart failure, rosiglitazone is safe, and can reduce nitric oxide (NO) derived oxidative stress (in particular, nitrotyrosine) thereby improving endothelial dysfunction, left ventricular performance, and metabolic parameters.
