Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

The purpose of the SIROOP Registry is to retrospectively and prospectively collect baseline, clinical and procedural characteristics of patients who have undergone PCI and are treated with either currently available sirolimus or paclitaxel coated DCBs (see Table 1), irrespective of clinical presentation as well as to prospectively collect data about their clinical outcomes. Outcomes will be compared in different clinical subgroups. The impact of current DCBs in different clinical settings and coronary artery lesions on cardiovascular outcomes will be assessed.

The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the effect of Semaglutide on the burden of coronary atherosclerosis, based on the change in Percent Atheroma Volume (PAV) by quantifying atheroma plaque throughout the coronary tree based on the analysis of CCTA in asymptomatic subjects with T2D in optimized and stable treatment with Semaglutide.

METHOD is a prospective observational program that will be conducted in 1centre of the Russian Federation. Prospective follow-up will be for about 6 months. The METHOD study is a 2 visit study with first visit of inclusion and second visit of completion of the study. Patients with stable angina pectoris eligible to the study inclusion criteria will be invited to participate in this observational program. The parameters for analysis will be collected by doctors and entered into CRF. The final analysis will include data from patients who were taking TMZ 80 mg OD during the observational period. The decision to stop the study will be made once 36 patients receiving treatment with trimetazidine 80 mg OD will have been evaluated at V1. It is expected that 5 cardiologists will participate in the program. The planned number of patients is 36.

Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM), which can significantly increase all-cause mortality and the incidence of serious cardiovascular events, and increase the burden of the national economy. The epidemiological characteristics and the clinical progress of CAC are still not clear. Moreover, the pathogenesis of CAC has not yet been fully elucidated, and lack of specific diagnostic indicators. Arterial calcification is an active, reversible, and multifactorial biological process like bone formation. It is generally believed that early detection of calcification lesions and active targeted treatment may be the key to prevention and treatment of vascular calcification. In addition, statins are commonly used in patients with dyslipidemia and can stabilize CAC plaque. However, the timing, dosage and effect of statins are controversial. Moreover, our previous study found that the expression of miR-32 is significantly elevated in patients with CAC, and can promoting vascular calcification. Herein, this study is to conduct a prospective cohort study on T2DM patients with CAC in Hunan province through a multidisciplinary and multi-center cooperation model, the main research objectives include the following three parts: ① To identify the prevalence, incidence, and characteristics of CAC in T2DM patients in Hunan province, and to build a risk assessment model. ② To observe the effects of statins on the occurrence and development of CAC in patients with T2DM, and to provide clinical data for the improvement of medication guidelines; ③To observe the dynamic changes of serum miR-32 in the progression of CAC in patients with T2DM, and to explore its possibility as a serological diagnosis or prognostic bio-maker of CAC. The completion of this research project is expected to bring a new breakthrough in the field of early diagnosis, prognosis evaluation, and intervention treatment of patients with T2DM combined with CAC, and provide an important reference for the formulation of cardiovascular disease prevention and control strategy.

The purpose of SCADIAB is to assess the real-life efficiency of systematic screening for ischemic heart disease in T2DM patients at very high cardiovascular risk, without known coronary heart disease, from the databases of the National Health Data System (SNDS).

Despite advancements in medical care, ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains the leading global cause of death. IHD develops through lipid accumulation into the coronary arteries with subsequent formation of larger atherogenic plaques. During myocardial infarction (MI), a plaque ruptures and subsequent occlusion leads to a death of the heart muscle. The tissue is rapidly replaced with a scar, which may later lead to heart failure (HF). Optimally, disease biomarkers are analyzed from blood, provide insight into the disease progression and aid the evaluation of therapy efficacy. Unfortunately, no optimal biomarkers have been identified for IHD. The vast but uncounted number of patients with undiagnosed IHD, benefitting from an early diagnosis, underscore the dire need for an IHD biomarker. Epitranscriptomics, the study of posttranscriptional modifications on RNA, has recently been properly re-established. This expanding field is uncovering a new layer of regulation, controlling processes ranging from cell division to cell death. Over 170 modifications have been identified as posttranscriptional marks in RNA species. These modifications influence RNA metabolism, including export, stability, and translation. One the most common and intensively studied RNA modification is the N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the abundance and effects of which are determined by the interplay between its writers, readers and erasers. Recent findings suggest a local dysregulation of the m6A dynamics in the myocardium, coalescing in signalling pathway and contractility related RNA transcripts during hypertrophy, MI and HF. While these early reports have focused on the myocardium, the role of the m6A in the circulation during IHD remains unexplored. We hypothesize the IHD pathophysiology to be reflected in the epitranscriptome of the circulating RNA. The objective of the IHD-EPITRAN is to identify new IHD biomarkers via cohort comparison of the blood epitranscriptomes from patients with: (1) MI related with coronary angioplasty, (2) IHD treated with elective coronary artery bypass grafting, (3) aortic valve stenosis treated with valve replacement and (4) IHD-healthy controls verified with computerized tomography imaging. The RNA fractionation is followed by the quantitative modifications analysis with mass spectrometry. Ultimately, nanopore RNA sequencing with simultaneous m6A identification in their native sequences is carried out using recently published artificial intelligence-based algorithm.

Despite optimal angiographic result after stent implantation, a number of patients will undergo repeat angiography within 1 year of index procedure. EASY-PRIPCI is an observational study evaluating the incidence of abnormal physiology results in patients undergoing repeat angiography after uncomplicated percutaneous intervention (PCI).

Multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study to confirm and support the clinical safety and performance of Angiolite sirolimus eluting stent to meet EU Medical Device regulation (MDR) requirements in all the CONSECUTIVE patients treated with Angiolite sirolimus eluting stent.

The overall purpose of the FAVOR III China trial is to investigate if a strategy of quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) yields superior clinical outcome and cost-effectiveness compared to a strategy of standard coronary angiography-guided PCI in evaluation of patients with coronary artery disease.

The Prospective REgistry of Stable Angina manaGEment and Treatment (PRESAGE) is an observational study on an all-comer stable angina population hospitalised in a highly specialized cardiovascular centre with cardiac surgery facilities. The aim of the study is to assess the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, early and long-term outcomes in this population.
