NCT05185232
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases of varying severity, each diagnosis with its unique set of co-morbidities. In addition to the heterogeneity, perhaps the greatest challenge to conducting comparative effectiveness research in CHD patients are the poor rates of successful transition from pediatric to adult centered cardiology care and high rates of gaps in recommend care for adults with CHD. This study will use PCORnet to examine the effects of gaps in recommended care (cardiology visits) on patient prioritized outcomes for adults with non-complex and complex subtypes of CHD. This system will be established through 14 (12 recruiting) PCORnet affiliated institutions and linkage to the Congenital Heart Initiative registry (https://chi.eurekaplatform.org), the first patient powered registry for adults with CHD. This registry launched in December 2020, and is IRB approved at Children's National Hospital (IRB# Pro00014697). Funded by PCORI, this project will recruit patients at the 12 PCORnet affiliated institutions and will invite them to contribute their health records data and then join the established Congenital Heart Initiative. By enrolling patients and linking their PCORnet (health record) data into an existing adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) specific registry, future interventions to reduce gaps in care based on study findings can be rapidly implemented in real-world settings through the strong partnerships established with key CHD stakeholders.
NCT03102437

NCT02929329
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with omecamtiv mecarbil when added to standard of care is well tolerated and superior to placebo in reducing the risk of cardiovascular death or heart failure events in adults with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
NCT04289181
The goal is to conduct a pilot trial that provides 4 weeks of medically-tailored meals (MTM) to patients with heart failure (HF) via collaboration with the Philadelphia Meals on Wheels chapter to assess the feasibility of such an intervention. Patients will be enrolled during either an inpatient hospitalization or an emergency department (ED) visit, and will be randomized into 1 of 2 arms: 1) MTM or 2) usual care that follows guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT). Evidence gathered from this study will guide the design of a larger randomized controlled trial to be submitted to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to evaluate the scalability, sustainability and cost-effectiveness of MTM for improving outcomes for patients with HF.
NCT02104817
The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled (corn oil), parallel group design that will enroll approximately 13,000 patients with hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL and high risk for CVD to be randomized 1:1 to either corn oil + statin or Epanova + statin, once daily, for approximately 3-5 years as determined when the number of MACE outcomes is reached.
NCT04133350
This is a prospective, single-arm, unblinded pilot study and registry that aims to demonstrate adherence to adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) therapy in patients with moderate to severe sleep disordered breathing who have been recently hospitalized. ASV therapy has been linked to improved outcomes in this population, but adherence to therapy is low. The AirCurve 10 ASV device that will be used for this study employs newer technologies, such as web-based monitoring and provides patients feedback, which may increase therapy adherence and therefore improve patient outcomes.
NCT01754064
SCORE is an active, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center outcome-oriented registry of patients implanted with St Jude Medical (SJM) market-released cardiac rhythm management (CRM) products. This registry will be conducted in the United States (US). The primary purpose of the registry is to evaluate and publish acute and long-term performance of market-released SJM CRM products by analyzing product survival probabilities. Product status and any related adverse events will be collected to measure survival probabilities.
NCT02552238
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of Lumason-enhanced dobutamine stress echo (DSE) in subjects having a suboptimal left ventricular endocardial border delineation (LV EBD) at rest and who were scheduled for coronary angiography.
NCT03057977
The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
NCT01925794
This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single arm clinical trial that will be conducted at up to 40 sites in the United States and Outside United States (OUS). This study will enroll patients with symptomatic ischemic heart disease due to a single de novo lesion contained within a native coronary artery with reference vessel diameter between 2.5 mm and 4.0 mm and lesion length ≤ 24 mm that is amenable to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and stent deployment. All patients will be followed at 30 days, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year and annually for 5 years post index stenting procedure.
NCT00624442
This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of CK-1827452 infusion in patients with stable heart failure.
NCT04325191
Increased dietary sodium causes increases in oxidative stress and damages blood vessels. Americans eat more than the recommended amount of sodium. Melatonin is a powerful endogenous antioxidant that has reduced oxidative stress levels in clinical and healthy populations. This study will investigate whether melatonin can attenuate the negative effects of sodium on blood vessels.
NCT01850082
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most common major surgical procedure in the United States with over 300,000 cases performed each year. To restore blood flow to the heart, vascular conduits from another part of the body are procured to create a bypass around critically blocked coronary arteries. The left internal thoracic artery is the conduit of choice for CABG due to its superior long-term patency. However, almost all patients referred for CABG require additional grafts to provide complete revascularization. This necessitates the harvest of other vessels, most commonly the saphenous vein which is used almost ubiquitously in contemporary CABG with an average of two vein grafts per CABG procedure. In the last 10 years, Endoscopic Vein Harvesting (EVH) has been recommended as the preferred method over the traditional open harvesting technique (OVH) because it provides a minimally invasive approach. However, more recent investigations indicate potential for reduced long-term bypass graft patency and worse clinical outcomes with EVH. The long term impact of EVH on clinical outcomes has never been investigated on a large scale using a definitive, adequately powered, prospective Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with long-term follow-up.
NCT04648306
A multi-center, prospective, observational, non-interventional single arm, study of the intermediate-term clinical outcomes collected from electronic health records of high-risk patients which have previously undergone standard of care prophylactic Impella support for a non-emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
NCT00039975
Diltiazem CD and amlodipine are drugs used to treat heart disease and high blood pressure. The purpose of this study is to find out if these drugs interact with the anti-HIV drugs indinavir and ritonavir. The study will also look at the safety of taking the study drugs together. Heart disease and high blood pressure are major health concerns for people with HIV. Standard treatment for these illnesses often includes calcium channel blockers (CCBs). There is a potential for significant drug interactions between CCBs and HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) that may influence the dosing, monitoring, and choosing of CCBs and PIs when used in people infected with HIV. This study will examine the drug interactions between 2 commonly used CCBs and the PI combination indinavir and ritonavir (IDV/RTV). This information should help doctors choose the appropriate treatment for high blood pressure or heart disease in people taking PIs.
