Filter by:The preceding IVORY trial (NCT04241601) has completed. As atherosclerosis and its complications are driven by inflammation the investigators hypothesise that treatment with low-dose IL2 may reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes compared to placebo. In this follow-up study, the investigators aim to collect cardiovascular clinical outcome data for patients who completed the IVORY clinical trial and will look at major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, resuscitated cardiac arrest, ischaemic stroke, or unplanned coronary revascularization. In addition, data on adverse events such as all cause death, haemorrhagic stroke, new atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, hospitalisation due to cardiovascular causes (e.g. stable and unstable angina, TIAs, heart failure), amputations and revascularisation due to peripheral vascular disease.
This study is a multicenter and retrospective study. ACS patients who underwent CCTA or OCT from 1 months to 3 years prior to the event will be retrospectively identified. Plaques in the non-culprit vessels will be regarded as a primary control group.
Purpose : The purpose of this study is to investigate the tracking effect of selfmanagement programs on anxiety, depression, and quality of life in patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS).
The DCB-ACS trial is a prospective, multi-center, non-inferiority, randomized controlled trail. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of drug-coated balloon(DCB) in de novo lesions for acute coronary syndromes (ACS) .
The aim of the REnal Insufficiency Following Contrast MEDIA Administration TriaL IV (REMEDIAL IV) is to test whether the use of the DyeVert system is effective in reducing CI-AKI rate in ACS patients undergoing urgent/immediate (within 2 hours) invasive diagnostic and/or interventional cardiovascular procedures. The DyeVert™ system (Osprey Medical Inc., Minnetonka, MN, USA) is a novel device designed to reduce CM volume during coronary procedures, while maintaining fluoroscopic image quality. Patients with ACS scheduled for urgent/immediate coronary angiography/angioplasty will be enrolled and randomized into 2 groups: 1) DyeVert group (CM injection will be handled by the DyeVert TM system), and 2) Control group (CM injection will be carried out by a conventional manual injection syringe).
Multicenter post-approval observational retrospective cohort study in routine clinical practice (Real World Evidence Study) to assess the 1-year safety profile associated with ticagrelor and clopidogrel therapy in a contemporary reprospective cohort of patients who survived the initial 30-day period after the index hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) result from coronary plaque(s) disruption, which initiates a thrombotic process leading to partial or complete obstruction of the vessel lumen with subsequent myocardial ischaemia and necrosis. The mainstay of treatment is currently focused on the re-establishment and maintenance of coronary artery patency using anti-platelets and anticoagulants with or without mechanical dilatation and stenting of the culprit artery. Despite important advances in management, ACS still carries a risk of substantial morbidity and mortality. The improved efficacy of novel anti-platelet and anticoagulant agents have been limited by increased risk of haemorrhagic events. Future breakthroughs in management are most likely to arise from targeting other relevant pathophysiological pathways. Particularly, the immune response which is an important process that has been neglected in the management of patients with ACS. In this trial the investigators investigate the efficacy of low dose IL-2 compared with placebo in patients with ACS.
The study aims to show inferiority of rivaroxaban plus ticagrelor when compared to rivaroxaban plus clopidogrel in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of death or ischemic event-including myocardial infarction, definite or probable stent thrombosis, stroke, or urgent revascularization.
The antiplatelet agent clopidogrel is an effective drug for the prevention of thrombotic events in patients with acute coronary syndromes, and is therefore one of the most frequently prescribed drugs worldwide. Accumulating data suggest that the response to clopidogrel is characterised by significant inter-patient variability in the degree of platelet inhibition and the risk of cardiovascular events. Recent research findings have highlighted the role of genetic variations in determining antiplatelet response variability, and this has aroused interest in genotyping all thienopyridine-eligible patients in order to identify those who would be at increased risk of harm if treated with clopidogrel. This is a prospective, multicentre, randomised study enrolling consecutive patients hospitalised because of an ACS with or without ST-segment elevation. The patients are randomised to undergo or not tests for CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*17 and ABCB1 3435 genetic variants immediately after diagnosis. The genotyping is done using a Q3 System (a compact platform that enables the classic laboratory analysis of DNA by means of real-time PCR). The Q3 has been designed as a low entry-cost, portable, point-of-care instrument for foolproof use by unskilled personnel. The patients randomised to the pharmacogenomic arm receive one of the ADP receptor antagonists (clopidogrel/prasugrel/ticagrelor) on the basis of an algorithm that consider genetic and clinical variables. The patients randomised to the standard treatment arm receive clopidogrel or prasugrel or ticagrelor on the basis of the standard of care (clinical algorithm alone). For each patient, a record is made of the occurrence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI, stroke, BARC-defined bleeding, and definite or probable stent thrombosis. The primary endpoint is the composite of death due to cardiovascular causes, non-fatal MI and stroke. The secondary endpoints is the occurrence of definite or probable stent thrombosis, and BARC-defined major bleeding events (types 3-5).
