In this research study, we will assess the safety, tolerability, comfort, and feasibility of lowering intraocular pressure using a novel Contact Lens Drug Delivery System with latanoprost. Latanoprost is a well-studied medication and has been used to treat glaucoma for decades. Currently, latanoprost is FDA-approved to be administered to patients as eye drops, but using eye drops has challenges (having to remember to take the drop, getting the drop in the eye). This clinical trial is being done to determine the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of using latanoprost to deliver latanoprost in a new way (through a drug-eluting contact lens). The study includes two phases. Phase A is intended to assess safety and tolerability and Phase B to assess safety and effectiveness.
This is a multicenter, open-label, dose escalation (Cohort 1) to masked, randomized, parallel-groups (Cohort 2) and (Cohort 3) study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AGN-193408 SR in participants with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension
Pediatric idiopathic pulmonary hypertension has significant morbidity and mortality. An ever expanding body of knowledge indicates the important contribution of inflammation to pathogenesis and successful treatment with glucocorticoids. Over the last several years the investigators have utilized steroids in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension as part of a treatment regimen. These basic science studies possibly identifies a biochemical etiology for the development of disease and may also be impacted by the administration of steroids. Additionally, there is a commercially available assay which tests for all of the above molecules.
With the appearance of the new SARS-COV2 virus, additional challenges are being imposed on the medical community after the resolution of acute COVID-19 illness, resulting in specific pathophysiologic mechanisms that while acutely damage the lung parenchyma might chronically impact the cardiopulmonary system. This study aims to investigate changes after mild COVID-19 illness in echocardiographic indices at rest and stress.
This is a prospective pilot study to assess the plasma levels of particular proteins involved in the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) pathway and its down stream regulators, CHIP, as well as micro RNA molecules in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and compare them to control subjects without PAH to see if they can be used as a diagnostic or prognostic marker of PAH and how this compares to other diagnostic biomarkers N-terminal pro-natriuretic peptide (NT Pro-BNP) and C-reactive protein (CRP).
The investigator compared difference between inhaled and intravenous milirinone in patiens with severe pulmonary hypertension undergoing cardiac surgery
To demonstrate that in patients with resistant hypertension oral treatment with minocycline via inhibition of central immune cell activation and inflammation results in reduced central sympathetic outflow and concomitant lowering of BP.
To analyze the effects of altering the time of ingestion of participants' habitual medication (i.e., metformin, statins, ARAII/IACE) and meals around the time of exercise training (exercise fasted or fed) on the improvement of metabolic syndrome factors (hypertension, insulin sensitivity, dyslipidemia, and obesity). There will be a preliminary study of the effects of training "time-of-day" on the primary study outcomes.
This study is designed to investigate whether sympathoinhibition with moxonidine could provide added metabolic benefit compared to the second line therapy in the current guidelines.
