NCT00088179
During a heart bypass procedure, a substance called "complement" is activated by the body. This "complement activation" causes an inflammatory response that can lead to side affects such as chest pain, heart attacks, stroke, heart failure, or death. The purpose of this study is to find out if the study drug (pexelizumab), that blocks "complement activation," can reduce such side effects and be given safely to patients requiring the bypass procedure with the use of the heart-lung machine.
NCT00048308
During a heart bypass procedure, a substance called "complement" is released by the body. This complement causes inflammation, which can lead to side effects such as chest pain, heart attacks, heart failure, or impairment of memory, language and motor skills. The purpose of this study is to find out if the study drug (pexelizumab), which blocks complement release, can reduce such side effects and be taken safely.
NCT02638129
The purpose of this study is to evaluate cardiovascular (CV) safety of naltrexone hydrochloride (HCl) and bupropion HCl extended release combination (NB) compared with placebo and rule out excess risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) when given in combination with standard of care in overweight and obese participants with documented history of CV disease.
NCT00064753
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if lowering homocysteine levels in renal transplant recipients with a multivitamin will reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular disease outcomes.
NCT01096043
Study CXL-1020-02 employs is designed to further define suitable clinical dosages for CXL-1020 which will be utilized in a later Phase IIb study. The study is conducted in 3 different stages called 'strata" and evaluates the potential utility of this drug for the treatment of patents who are hospitalized with heart failure.
NCT00683696
The EchoCRT trial evaluates the effects of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) on mortality and morbidity of subjects with heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction, already receiving optimized HF medication, with a narrow QRS width (\< 130 ms) and echocardiographic evidence of ventricular dyssynchrony.
NCT01644331
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effects of oral Tolvaptan vs. placebo as an adjunct to fixed dose IV furosemide on dyspnea relief in patients with acute decompensated heart failure The primary hypothesis is that the addition of oral Tolvaptan to fixed dose furosemide will be more effective at relieving dyspnea than fixed dose furosemide alone
NCT00116428
This trial compares the safety and effectiveness of catheter ablation for PAF with antiarrhythmic drug therapy. The investigational catheter being studied is the NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® irrigated-tip catheter. At the time of this study, the NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® catheter was FDA-approved for commercial distribution in the U.S. for treating patients with Type I atrial flutter and drug refractory monomorphic ventricular tachycardia post myocardial infarction. The catheter was approved for use in Europe for endocardial ablation for treating cardiac arrhythmias.
NCT01783483
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate sternal bone healing following a full median sternotomy versus standard of care for sternal closure with wire cerclage. Additional outcomes on post-operative pain and analgesic usage, patient function and quality of life, and complications will also be collected. A health economics study will also be conducted, in which cost and billing data will be collected from sites participating in this clinical study.
NCT02477579
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the a novel device called NovaCross to help cross Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions in coronary arteries.
NCT02148679
Study subjects will receive either pre-prepared, home-delivered DASH/SRD-compliant meals or attention control for 4 weeks after hospital discharge.
NCT00831116
In April 2008, a coronary catheter based imaging system, LipiScan, was cleared by the FDA for use in detecting lipid core containing containing plaques of interest (LCP). These plaques are rich in cholesterol. The way that cholesterol and other lipids deposit with the coronary artery is unique to each patient. This study is an organized attempt to observe the LCP and the variety of ways that it presents in patients as detected by this recently approved device. This information will be used for physician training and to observe the behavior of the LCP in response to no therapy and currently approved therapies. The purpose of this project is further medical knowledge of the LCP and its treatment.
NCT02635477
A multicenter prospective randomized clinical trial testing the hypothesis that a patient-centered actigraphy intervention will result in increased physical activity for frail older adults increase during the critical first 30 days after a cardiovascular hospitalization.
NCT02577484
This study will assess the differences between Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measurements made by the Navvus catheter and a commercially available pressure guidewire in up to 240 subjects where FFR is clinically indicated. All subjects will receive diagnostic treatment according to clinical indications and center standard practice.
NCT02468336
The objective of this study is to demonstrate that the investigational device, AngioDefender, is comparable to the established procedure referred to as 'brachial artery ultrasound imaging' in their abilities to quantify flow-mediated vasodilation of the brachial artery.
NCT00991120
The purpose of the Extension Phase of the COMPASS-HF study is to continue to observe the safety of the Chronicle® Implantable Hemodynamic Monitor (IHM) system and Chronicle ICD system and provide study doctors continued access to the heart pressure information recorded by the Chronicle devices which may be used to help manage heart failure. The Extension Phase of the COMPASS-HF study is limited to people who have already received the investigational system and are currently enrolled in a Chronicle IHM or ICD study.
NCT01346189
Using a 4-arm, cluster-randomized controlled trial, the investigators will test the effectiveness of different behavioral economic interventions in increasing statin use and reducing LDL cholesterol among patients with poor cholesterol control who are at very high risk for CVD. The investigators will test these approaches among primary care physicians and their patients at very high risk of CVD at Geisinger Health System and University of Pennsylvania outpatient clinics.
NCT00573560
The CardioKinetix Ventricular Partitioning Device (VPD) is intended to isolate the malfunctioning portion of the left ventricle in patients with symptoms of heart failure due to ischemic heart disease. By isolating the malfunctioning portion of the left ventricle, it is hypothesized that the left ventricle will pump more effectively.
NCT02188784
The purpose of this study is to determine if oral iron (Fe) polysaccharide is superior to oral placebo in improving functional capacity as measured by change in peak VO2 (oxygen uptake) by CPET (Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing) , of a broad population of patients with HFrEF (Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction) and Fe deficiency at 16 weeks. Hypothesis: In a broad population of HFrEF patients with Fe deficiency, compared to oral placebo, therapy with oral Fe polysaccharide will be associated with improvement in functional capacity at 16 weeks as assessed by CPET.
NCT01800968
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that, compared with placebo, therapy with Subcutaneous (SQ) GLP-1 agonist in the post-Acute Heart Failure Syndrome (AHFS) discharge period will be associated with greater clinical stability at six months as assessed by a composite clinical endpoint.
