Filter by:The goal of this study is to find out how fast a drug called selatogrel (ACT-246475) can prevent platelets from binding together. This study will also help to find out more about the safety of this new drug. The drug selatogrel (ACT-246475) will be used in 2 different doses (8 mg or 16 mg) and will be administered in the thigh.
A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Safety and Efficacy Study of Dutogliptin in Combination with Filgrastim in Early Recovery Post-Myocardial Infarction
A total of 50 participants diagnosed with ACS (group A ticagrelor 180mg/d, n=25), group B (clopidogrel 75mg + rivaroxaban 5mg/ d, n=25)) were consecutively enrolled and treated with study drugs on top of aspirin (100mg/d) for 1 month. VerifyNow® and Global thrombosis test were performed at day 2 and 1 month after administration of study drugs. The investigators compared aspirin reaction unit (ARU) and P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU), occlusion time (OT) which reflects shear stress-induced thrombotic activity, and lysis time (LT) which showed endogenous lytic activity between the two strategies at both time points.
The OxAMI-PICSO is a study about the use of pressure controlled intermittent coronary sinus occlusion (PICSO) to improve the treatment of patients presenting with heart attack. PICSO is a device consisting of a balloon which is deployed in the coronary sinus. When inflated the balloon can improve the blood flow to the region of heart affected by the heart attack. The study aims to analyse the potential benefit of PICSO in improving blood flow to heart muscle in a selected group of patients admitted with a large heart attack involving the anterior wall of the heart. The comparator group will be a well-matched group of participants of the ongoing OxAMI study. In order to select patients with a large heart attack, we will measure the index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), before completion of the heart attack treatment procedure. The IMR value provides measurement of the blood flow at the level of the tiny vessels branching from the large coronary arteries. Our preliminary data from the OxAMI study have shown that an IMR > 40 suggests that the patient is having a large myocardial infarction (heart attack). Only patients with starting IMR > 40 will be considered eligible for the PICSO treatment. The benefit of PICSO will be assessed by measuring 1) indexes of coronary blood flow, 2) the extension of the infarcted area and 3) the levels of different molecules released in the blood.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of three dose levels of FDY-5301 compared to placebo in STEMI patients undergoing PCI.
Today the treatment of ischemic stroke in acute phase is based on medicinal or endovascular revascularization. Cerebral MRI sequences help the diagnostic. This procedure uses deoxyhemoglobin as an endogenous tracer. This is also a scorer of cerebral ischemia and the increase lets visualized transcerebral veins in the suffering zone giving a brush aspect. Several studies show the interest of this sign and conclude that deoxyhemoglobin presence is a predictive factor of cerebral ischemia. The aim of the study is to evaluate this brush-sign and correlate it with the prognosis retrospectively.
The investigators plan to evaluate the correlation between carotid plaque enhancement on Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), significant coronary artery disease (CAD), and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in a systematic manner. The investigators hypothesize that increased levels of CEUS-detected vulnerable carotid plaque will be predictive of CV risk determined by angiography and future cardiovascular events.
The aim of this study is to compare circadian variability of antiplatelet effect of prasugrel and ticagrelor maintenance doses during the initial days after acute myocardial infarction.
This study aims to identify factors influencing the time span and success of reperfusion after a mechanical thrombectomy in the acute phase of cerebral infarction, and in particular the effect of intra-venous thrombolysis.
The FLOW trial is a randomized placebo-controlled trial analyzing the effect of coupling an anti-depressant, fluoxetine (Prozac), and exercise to improve motor recovery following a stroke.
