Filter by:To compare efficacy and safety of dalteparin compared to unfractionated heparin in patients of non ST elevation acute coronary syndromes who are planned to undergo coronary interventions (angioplasty or bypass surgery)
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy of cangrelor (combined with usual care) is superior to that of usual care, in subjects requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as measured by a composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), and ischemia-driven revascularization (IDR).
To evaluate the effect of the drug Montelukast on the brachial artery's function. By giving a drug like Montelukast, which blocks the effects of inflammation in the lungs arteries and controls asthma, we hope to see positive effects in other arteries such as in the heart.
This study is designed as a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind analysis of atorvastatin 80 mg versus placebo administered on average 4 hours prior to percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI] (at least 2 hours) in patients presenting with unstable angina. Only patients with negative cardiac biomarkers, measured on 2 separate occasions a few hours apart will be eligible for inclusion. Furthermore, patients already on high-dose statin therapy; patients taking any statin within 24 hours prior to the PCI; and patients with contraindications to statins will be excluded from the study. The primary endpoint is a quantitative troponin level at 18-24 hours after PCI. At an enrollment of a total of 150 patients (75 per group), the study is powered to detect a 30% difference in troponin level. Secondary endpoints include elevation of creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB above the upper limit of normal, change in C-reactive protein (CRP) levels from baseline and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) myocardial perfusion grade. All patients will be started on statin therapy the day after the procedure, as deemed appropriate by their treating physicians.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy of cangrelor is superior, or at least non-inferior, to that of clopidogrel in subjects requiring PCI.
Males and females aged 18-80 years who present with ACS (unstable angina and non ST-elevation MI) defined as one or more episodes of angina lasting at least 5 minutes in the last 24 hours before admission and greater than 0.05 mV of presumed new ST-segment depression in at least 2 contiguous ECG leads OR, angina and per confirmatory angiogram, has been scheduled for percutaneous coronary angioplasty. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of Serp-1 injection when administered in 3 daily doses to patients undergoing conventional therapy for Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) requiring early intervention.
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between depressive symptoms and markers of inflammation, two predictors of heart disease.
