This study is a prospective, single center cohort study that primarily registers the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and influencing factors of patients with different types of cardiovascular diseases. Evaluate multiple examination indicators of patients at baseline, 1 year and longer, and follow up on the incidence of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events, heart failure readmission, death, and other endpoint events.
NCT00005429
To examine clinical cardiovascular outcomes of African Americans.
NCT01420016
The objective of this project is to develop and implement sophisticated point-of-care Electronic Health Record (EHR)-based clinical decision support that (a) identifies and (b) prioritizes all available evidence-based treatment options to reduce a given patient's cardiovascular risk (CVR). After developing the EHR-based decision support intervention, the investigators will test its impact on CVR, the components of CVR, in a group randomized trial that includes 18 primary care clinics, 60 primary care physicians, and 18,000 adults with moderate or high CVR. This approach, if successful, will (a) improve chronic disease outcomes and reduce CVR for about 35% of the U.S. adult population, (b) maximize the clinical return on the massive investments that are increasingly being made in sophisticated outpatient EHR systems, and (c) provide a model for how to use EHR technology support to deliver "personalized medicine" in primary care settings

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Advanced cardiovascular imaging using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has proven to be effective in providing gold standard myocardial tissue characterization. Moreover, the intrinsic advantage of MRI's lack of exposure to ionizing radiation is particularly beneficial. At the same time, blood work can be very useful in early detection of certain cardiomyopathy, such as amyloid. However, there is a lack of agreement of on which markers are the most sensitive. This multi-study will allow us the unique opportunity to form a more comprehensive understanding for various cardiovascular diseases. Our team has developed novel cardiac MRI techniques that leverages endogenous tissue properties to reveal a milieu of deep tissue phenotypes including myocardial inflammation, fibrosis, metabolism, and microstructural defects. Among these phenotypes, myocardial microstructure has proven to be most sensitive to early myocardial tissue damage and is predictive of myocardial regeneration. In this study, the investigators aim to further study the importance of cardiac microstructure revealed by MRI in patient and healthy population and compare this novel technology with conventional clinical biomarkers.
NCT00101478
The purpose of this study is to improve cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes in racial and ethnic minorities. Specifically, the study will aim to improve provider and patient approaches to treatment of hypertension and diabetes, respectively.
NCT03823911
This is an interventional, non-randomized, controlled prospective study to treat HCV in mono-infected and HIV co-infected individuals and compare cardiovascular risk outcomes to HIV mono-infected controls. This pilot study will demonstrate whether functional cure of HCV reduces myocardial injury and risk of cardiovascular disease.
NCT03001713
This project aims to reduce disparities in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor control and in rates of heart attacks and strokes among the low-income, racially / ethnically diverse Americans who receive primary care at safety net community health centers (CHCs). To achieve this important objective, the investigators will adapt a successful clinical decision support (CDS) system currently used in CVD care at several large, integrated health care systems, to meet the patient needs and workflow processes of 60 CHCs. The investigators will determine if use of this CDS improves CVD care, reduces disparities in CVD care and outcomes, and increases patient engagement in CVD treatment choices, in CHCs. Results of this randomized trial will help accelerate the translation of major investments in health informatics systems into substantial clinical benefits for large numbers of high-risk, low-income patients. Results will also provide a template for CVD care improvement that can be spread to other CHCs and extended to other clinical conditions.
NCT05202509
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study in participants with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled despite maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
NCT07181109
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zilebesiran versus placebo reduces the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, or heart failure (HF) events. This is an event-driven study that will continue until the targeted number of positively adjudicated primary endpoint clinical outcome events (COEs) have been reached.
NCT01313702
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a polipill improved the compliance with treatment compared to usual care that use two or more drugs,in patients at high cardiovascular risk or previous cardiovascular disease.
NCT05919056
The CRITICALLY study is a cluster randomized trial that will evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-based dynamic monitoring strategy for the primary prevention of cardiovascular high-risk Chinese adults.
NCT03060577
This clinical study was designed to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of long-term dosing of inclisiran and evolocumab given as subcutaneous injections in participants with high cardiovascular risk and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
NCT05130489
This will be a cohort study of all patients receiving Cluster of Differentiation 19 (CD19)-specific CAR T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory B cell haematological malignancies. Patients will receive cardiac assessment and have serum cardiac biomarkers, ECG, transthoracic echocardiogram and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging performed at baseline prior to CAR T cell therapy, 7 days post CAR T cell infusion, and 3 months post CAR T cell infusion. Abnormalities in these cardiac investigations will be used to demonstrate cardiac injury and identify which patients are most at risk of developing cardiac injury related to CAR T cell therapy.
NCT05827718
Problem. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are the best way to determine if interventions are safe and effective. Usually only a small number of eligible patients enroll. This is because trials require people to consent to be enrolled and randomized. Black and Hispanic people are more likely to develop heart disease. They are also more likely to have risk factors for heart disease that are not controlled. Yet they are very under-represented in heart disease trials. This raises concerns about if trial results can be applied to the general population. Trial sponsors are required to enroll patients that reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of real-world people. Black and Hispanic people continue to enroll in trials at a lower rate. The goal of this study is to conduct a series of small randomized trials to test recruitment strategies to increase how many Black and Hispanic people enroll in heart disease clinical trials without diminishing trust. The investigators will test different recruitment strategies for participant enrollment in a few different areas. They will study the method of outreach, the way messages are framed, defaults, and enrollment incentives. They will run smaller recruitment strategy trials within larger parent trials (e.g. Penn Medicine Biobank cohort study). They will run a small recruitment strategy trial to test each approach and then include what they learned in the next small trial.
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.

NCT06888466
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the disclosure of Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) combined with personalized coaching on risk factors can lead to significant improvements in lifestyle behaviors among staff members at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS. The study includes staff members from Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS, enrolled at the outpatient clinics of the Cardiology Department. Main Research Questions: 1. Does receiving PRS disclosure and personalized coaching lead to significant improvements in lifestyle behaviors compared to baseline measurements? 2. How do different levels of genetic predisposition to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) impact behavioral changes following intervention? This is a single arm, pre-post clinical trial. Participant will: * Undergo genetic testing to assess their Polygenic Risk Score for CVDs * receive personalized, in-person consultation with a medical cardiologis, together with and individualized recommendations for CVD prevention based on PRS results and traditional risk factors.
