Active clinical trials for "Acute Coronary Syndrome"

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of E5555 in Japanese patients with acute coronary syndrome.

This study will evaluate the relative efficacy and safety of prasugrel and clopidogrel in a medically managed Unstable Angina/Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (UA/NSTEMI) acute coronary syndrome (ACS) population (that is, patients who are not managed with acute coronary revascularization).

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of intravenous Exenatide therapy in hyperglycemic patients admitted to the coronary intensive care unit.

The purpose of this study is to investigate an oral formulation of RVX000222 for safety, pharmacokinetic and efficacy in healthy subjects.

The central hypothesis for this work is that platelet - leukocyte interactions play a critical role in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic events. The primary objective of the study is to determine if early, high-dose administration of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor rosuvastatin in the setting of acute coronary syndrome and percutaneous coronary intervention exerts beneficial vascular effects by reducing platelet - leukocyte interactions.

Clopidogrel and statins are frequently coadministered in patients with ischemic heart diseases. Recent reports suggested that clopidogrel's effectiveness in inhibiting adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelets aggregation is attenuated by co-administration of certain statins. The objective of the present study is to define which kind of statins might interfere with the antiaggregation property of clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary Syndrome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In this prospective randomized study, all patients in test group will receive clopidogrel plus atorvastatin, and all patients in control group will receive clopidogrel plus pravastatin. All patients will be followed up for one year. The primary endpoints include death, non fatal AMI, urgent revascularization. The secondary endpoints include hemorrhage events and subacute thrombosis events at 1 year.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multi-center study to evaluate initial safety and efficacy of GW856553 in subjects with NSTEMI. Up to approximately 525 subjects will be randomized to meet the MRI recruitment target (90 subjects in substudy.) All subjects will continue to receive the local standard of care for the duration of the study.

This study will compare the effect of a prasugrel 10-mg maintenance dose with a clopidogrel 75-mg maintenance dose on platelet activity, approximately 1 week after the first dose of study drug, in subjects who have been taking clopidogrel 75 mg daily following a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with placement of a stent, performed to treat acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

The purpose of this study is to see if rosuvastatin compared to Atorvastatin is effective in treating ACS by decreasing the ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio and if starting statin within 24 h following the onset of the first symptoms is beneficial compared to placebo.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of pitavastatin and atorvastatin on coronary plaque volume in patients with acute coronary syndrome and to clarify the relationship between coronary plaque volume, serum lipids, and inflammation markers in order to determine the significance of intensive lipid lowering therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome in Japan.
