This is a Phase I study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of the novel compound, AZD5718 in healthy Japanese men. The results from this study will form the basis for decisions on future studies.
The background for performing the present study is to compare the mass calculations by CT scanning and by invasive absolute blood flow measurements and thereby corroborating both methods.
This randomized, multicenter, prospective study seeks to compare left radial and femoral access during cardiac catheterization of patients with prior history of CABG surgery, with the primary objective of demonstrating that the two access techniques do not differ in the net procedure time (non-inferiority study) expanding the documented benefits of radial access to this group of patients.
Flaxseed consumption has beneficial effects on cardiovascular risk factors. In addition, the benefit of the Mediterranean-like diet in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases has been shown.The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of flaxseed consumption, alone and in combination with the Mediterranean-like diet, in adjunct to conventional medical treatment, in improving vascular endothelial function, plasma lipid profile and high sensitivity c-reactive protein of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients.
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death in the western world. Myocardial infarction pathogenesis usually involves the development of an atherosclerotic plaque and thrombus. Past research has shown a correlation between thrombin generation values and ischemic heart disease, however, to our knowledge no investigation has been done into the correlation of thrombin generation and cardiac catheterization results in ischemic heart disease patients. In the current research the investigator will investigate the correlation of thrombin generation values using calibrated automated thrombogram and cardiac catheterization results in active ischemic heart disease patients.
This trial will compare the procedural success rate between right and left radial approach in patients undergoing coronary angiography and coronary intervention.
Taken together the results from DAPT and PEGASUS-TIMI54, it appears that physicians may consider extending beyond 1 year or reinitiating treatment with a thienopyridine or ticagrelor 60mg bid in patients with a prior MI and features of high ischemic and low bleeding risk. Comparative clinical or pharmacodynamic studies, however, between prasugrel 5 mg od and ticagrelor 60 mg bid in the chronic phase of stable post MI patients have not been performed. In light of this, we believe that a dedicated pharmacodynamic study of ticagrelor 60 bid mg vs prasugrel 5 mg od in a PEGASUS-like population would be informative for the practicing clinician, thus setting the rationale for conducting this specifically designed investigation.
The goal of this study is to find out if a drug called selatogrel (ACT-246475) can prevent platelets from binding together when administered by an injection under the skin in the thigh or in the belly. Another goal is to know how fast and for how long selatogrel (ACT-246475) works and if there is a difference if the drug is injected in the thigh or in the belly. This study will also help to find out more about the safety of this new drug.
Enrollment: - Patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) and moderate coronary artery stenoses (30-70 %) - Patients with acute myocardial infarction and moderate stenosis of non-culprit arteries (NCL; BYSTANDER LESION) Aims: - To assess the diagnostic accuracy of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) and invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement - To assess the prognostic impact of reclassification by a mismatching negative test Hypothesis: - DSE and FFR have similar prognostic value in both clinical settings (SCAD and NCL) - Considering the strong negative predictive value of both DSE and FFR, one negative test is sufficiently enough to defer revascularisation, even in the case of mismatch
