The OPTION2 trial (randomized controlled trial of IndObufen versus asPirin after coronary drug-eluting stent implantaTION in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome) was designed to compare the 1-year clinical efficacy and safety of indobufen-based dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) (indobufen 100mg bid plus ticagrelor 90mg bid) or conventional DAPT (aspirin 100mg qd plus ticagrelor 90mg bid) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients aged over 70 years old undergoing coronary drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation.
The objective of this imaging substudy of RESTORE trial is to demonstrate the superiority of drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment on non-flow limited vulnerable plaque as compared to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) in improving plaque stabilization in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Create a multicenter prospective registry that collects information from women affected by acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This registry aims to understand the diversity in the presentation of women with ACS. It proposes to conduct a thorough characterization of the women involved in the study through genetic, biochemical, and molecular analysis.This approach aims to identify any differences in the characteristics of women with ACS and to identify disease subtypes that may influence treatment options and clinical outcomes.
In this study the investigators aim to study the effect of supplementation of CoQ10 in decreasing the incidence of contrast induced acute kidney injury in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing coronary angiography.
1.1. Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in our country for over four decades. The pathophysiology of CVD begins with various cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs) and their poor management, leading to subclinical lesions in target organs such as albuminuria or left ventricular hypertrophy, which may evolve into CVD. This progression is referred to as the cardiovascular continuum. Patients with chronic cardiovascular conditions require comprehensive periodic health monitoring in primary care (PC), including lifestyle advice and an assessment of comorbidities. Risk factors linked to disease progression are monitored and managed, along with medication reconciliation and planning follow-up care. Such activities, especially post-COVID, help maintain clinical stability and organize healthcare demand, reducing unnecessary interventions and costs. In Galicia, continuity of care programs for ischemic heart disease focus on optimizing service delivery at appropriate levels, including electronic consultations that improve healthcare accessibility, outcomes, and cost-effectiveness. Introducing Inclisiran for chronic CVD patients post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) hospitalization might streamline care continuity, reducing healthcare costs and improving outcomes. 1.2. Purpose The disruption of care continuity in patients post-ACS increases their risk of mortality and hospitalizations due to coronary complications and comorbidities, as well as emergency visits and unplanned healthcare interactions, thus elevating healthcare costs. We propose reorganizing care continuity for ACS patients by establishing a PC pathway with scheduled semi-annual visits to assess overall and cardiovascular health and to evaluate patient prognosis and healthcare resource utilization. 2. Objectives 2.1. Primary Objectives The main goal is to evaluate whether a follow-up program incorporating Inclisiran treatment in patients with chronic coronary syndrome can optimize follow-up (reducing unscheduled visits to PC and hospital emergency departments), improve control of risk factors (like physical activity, adherence to a Mediterranean diet, lipid profiles, blood pressure, glycemic profile, and renal function), and decrease direct economic costs. 2.2. Secondary Objectives The secondary objectives include analyzing adherence to prescribed chronic pharmacological treatment, factors driving higher demand among patients with chronic coronary syndrome, reasons for emergency visits, hospital admissions, and causes of mortality among these patients. 3. Methodology 3.1. Study Design A pilot, multicentric, analytical intervention study will be conducted involving five health centers in the Santiago de Compostela health area, with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria outlined. The study will monitor patients over 27 months, following a detailed protocol.
The PASSIVATE-CAP study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, multicenter, open-label superiority trial focusing on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with nonflow-limiting vulnerable plaques in nonculprit vessels. In this study, eligible patients were randomized at a 1:1 ratio into two groups: patients who received guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and patients who received GDMT combined with a drug-coated balloon (DCB). In this study, the use of PCSK9 inhibitors was limited to inclisiran. The primary endpoint was the minimal lumen area of the target lesion 1 year after randomization. The secondary endpoints encompass a range of factors, including the proportion of patients with vulnerable plaques in the target vessel, fibrous cap thickness, lipid core arc of the target lesion, minimal lumen area of the target vessel, and extent of LDL-C reduction in patients treated with inclisiran.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to appraise the impact of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in the treatment of early stages of cardiogenic shock, irrespective of etiology. Findings of this randomized trial may enhance clinical decision making regarding the use of MCS in specific subsets of patients in early stages of cardiogenic shock. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the effects of IABP on a composite of clinical endpoints representing clinical deterioration at 30-days in patients presenting with SCAI stage B or C cardiogenic shock? - What is the 1-year clinical outcome (including mortality and hospital admissions for cardiovascular causes) of patients treated with vs. without IABP for early cardiogenic shock? - Is there a difference in efficacy of IABP within the treatment of early cardiogenic shock related to Acute Coronary Syndrome versus non-ischemic causes? - Is there a difference in efficacy of IABP within the treatment of SCAI stage B versus stage C cardiogenic shock? Participants will be 1:1 randomized to IABP support or standard of care (a treatment strategy including inotropes and/or vasopressors but no IABP insertion). Patients will be stratified for Acute Coronary Syndrome/non-ischemic etiology and stage B/stage C cardiogenic shock, following stratification to center. Researchers will compare the group who was randomized to IABP to the control group (i.e. standard of care) to see if there is a difference in the primary trial endpoint after 30-days, including 1) all-cause mortality, 2) escalation to invasive mechanical ventilation, 3) escalation of mechanical circulatory support strategy, 4) acute kidney injury and 5) stroke or transient ischemic attack.
This is a multicentre, prospective, randomized controlled trial that will investigate the role and performance of the 3rd generation resorbable magnesium scaffolds "DREAMS 3G" labeled under the name "Freesolve" vs contemporary biodegradable polymer scaffolds in non ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes. Patients fulfilling the eligibility criteria will be enrolled and undergo PCI with either Freesolve or Orsiro platforms for the culprit lesion only. They will be followed-up for 12 months (1, 6 and 12 months). The primary endopoint will be Target Lesion Failure as defined by ARC definitions.
The purpose of this study is to utilize an innovative healthcare delivery strategy via telehealth group counseling sessions to improve engagement, adherence, and ultimately outcomes in female patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
