Active clinical trials for "Angina, Unstable"

In this study, typical cases of coronary heart disease are selected. They will be intervened by Xuesaitong soft capsules to investigate efficacy and safety for Coronary Heart disease.

to evaluate safety and efficacy of CGBIO stent(DES) compared to Biomatrix flex stent(DES)

This clinical trial studies patients treated with the Coroflex ISAR Stent for coronary artery disease in order for the objective of verifying the non-inferiority of results that among patients who were administered DAPT for 3 months compared to patients who were administered DAPT for 6 months, in terms of the efficacy and safety of DAPT.

International guidelines support the use of a full-dose heparin (anticoagulants) during coronary intervention. However, a lower dose of heparin may be adequate, thanks to advances in angioplasty techniques and the widespread use of pretreatment with two antiplatelet agents. Thus the investigators designed a study comparing safety and efficacy of standard dose heparin (100 UI/Kg) versus low-dose (50 UI/Kg) in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty who are on aspirin and clopidogrel at the time of the procedure.

The utilization of paclitaxel-eluting coronary stents in small vessel diseases is effective in reducing both repeat revascularization and major adverse cardiac events within two year follow-up. To evaluate the procedural, short and long term clinical outcomes of the Taxus Liberte™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent in small coronary arteries of ≤ 2.5 mm in the reference vessel diameter.

MRI has the ability to visualize the arterial vessel wall. Wall thickening and atherosclerotic plaque components can be visualized in the carotid arteries and the aorta. Previous studies also demonstrated the ability of MRI to visualize the coronary vessel wall. The ultimate goal of coronary vessel wall imaging is to detect vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque thereby. This might prevent complications, e.g., chest pain (angina) or myocardial infarction. The goal of this study was to validate MRI of the coronary vessel wall by comparing it to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), to detect atherosclerotic plaque in the coronary vessel wall and to look at the uptake of the albumin-binding contrast agent gadofosveset in atherosclerotic plaques. The main hypothesis is that due to the albumin binding characteristics, uptake of the contrast agent will take place in the more vulnerable plaques compared to less vulnerable plaques. MRI will be compared to X-ray coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound, two techniques currently considered as the standard of reference for imaging of the coronary arteries and vessel wall.

Study aim : To compare a novel strategy of lesion preparation with noncompliant balloons before implantation of BVS (Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold). Hypothesis: Predilatation with non-compliant balloons could facilitate optimal deployment of BVS. By achieving good scaffold apposition a need for post-dilatation could be significantly reduced. This is expected to result in better short- and long-term outcomes.

Non-invasive evaluation of patients with stable angina and unstable coronary syndromes with transthoracic Doppler echocardiography to evaluate presence of significant coronary stenoses. Blinded evaluation and comparison with coronary angiography: presence and location of stenoses, and head to head comparison of clinical value and patient classification.

A multicenter, randomized clinical trial in elderly patients (over 80 years old) with unstable angina pectoris or Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). A total of 200 patients will be randomized to medical treatment (100 patients) or coronary angiography with revascularization if feasible (100 patients). Information regarding prior history, frailty, clinical presentation, in-hospital events, complications, angina, quality of life and mortality will be collected. Follow up time is 1 year.

In this study, typical cases of blood stasis syndrome of coronary heart disease are selected, by using microRNA chip, cDNA microarray and other bioinformatics technologies to filter and verify related miRNA and its target gene of Coronary Heart disease. Meanwhile, intervene by Xuesaitong soft capsules to investigate related miRNA and its target gene of Coronary Heart disease.
