Filter by:Recent clinical trials have proven the cardiovascular benefits of new medications for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), especially sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. There are no existing randomized clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin (nor any other SGLT2-inhibitor) to limit cardiac remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Preventing cardiac remodeling, an established predictor of subsequent heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular death, is likely to translate into benefit in reducing clinical events in post-MI patients.
This is a Prospective, Observational Multicenter Non-Interventional Cohort Study. The primary objective is to determine whether platelet expression of FcγRIIa is associated with risk of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and death. Secondary objectives include: 1) Develop a score that combines clinical characteristics plus platelet expression of FcγRIIa to determine the risk of MI, stroke, and death; and 2) Determine whether platelet expression of FcγRIIa is associated with risk of major bleeding. The primary endpoint is the composite of death, MI and stroke. A secondary endpoint is the incidence of clinically significant bleeding according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) scale type 2-5. Approximately 800 male and female subjects with confirmed MI [ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI)] will be enrolled before hospital discharge for the index event. Approximately 10 sites in the United States will participate in this study. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 12 months to enroll approximately 800 subjects. The study and subject follow-up will continue until 1) at least 80 ischemic events (MI, stroke, and death) have occurred, and 2) the last subject enrolled has completed 18 months of follow-up.
The purpose of the OPTIMISER Registry is to prospectively and retrospectively collect baseline, clinical and procedural data in patients who present with AMI and are treated with PCI as well as prospectively collect the clinical outcome data. Outcomes will be compared in different clinical subgroups. The impact of PCI in AMI in general as well as cardiovascular outcomes after AMI will be assessed.
Recovering blood flow to a coronary stenosis may improve left ventricular (LV) function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the reported data about evaluation of LV function post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in CAD was limited. The aim of this study was to compare the LV function measured by 3 min low dose exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) combined 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) in patients with CAD underwent PCI, and to identify factors affecting the change of LV function. Patients with CAD who underwent acute PCI were enrolled.
The ELECTRA-SIRIO 2 study is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, investigator-initiated clinical trial aimed to evaluate safety and efficacy of two ticagrelor-based de-escalation antiplatelet strategies in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). During the hospitalization due to ACS, participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio into one of three arms: low-dose ticagrelor with aspirin (LDTA), low-dose ticagrelor with placebo (LDTP), and standard-dose ticagrelor with aspirin (SDTA), the latter being the control arm. Up to day 30, all enrolled patients will receive standard-dose ticagrelor (2x90mg) + aspirin (1x100mg). Starting from day 31 LDTA and LDTP patients will receive low-dose ticagrelor (2x60mg) + aspirin (1x100mg), SDTA - continuation of previous treatment. Starting from day 91 LDTP patients will receive low-dose ticagrelor (2x60mg) + placebo, SDTA and LDTA - continuation of previous treatment. The aim of the study is to evaluate the influence of ticagrelor maintenance dose reduction from 2x90mg to 2x60mg with or without continuation of aspirin versus dual antiplatelet therapy with standard dose ticagrelor in reducing clinically relevant bleeding and maintaining anti-ischemic efficacy in ACS patients.
An observational, retrospective, multicenter, blinded adjudication study to evaluate the clinical appropriateness of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) indication and execution in patients with stable Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and in patients with acute coronary syndrome without ST-segment elevation (NSTE-ACS) (ratio 4:1). Half of the included patients will be diabetic. Also the implementation of selected, key guideline recommendations will be examined. At least 400 patients will be retrospectively selected among 22 Catheterization Laboratories in Italy in the region of Lombardia and Veneto. This study will be conducted in compliance with Good Clinical Practices (GCP) including the Declaration of Helsinki and all applicable regulatory requirements.
