Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

Prospective, multi-center, 2:1 randomized (Treatment : Sham Control), sham-controlled, double-blinded trial to compare treatment using the CardiAMP cell therapy system to sham treatment Treatment Group: Subjects treated with aBMC using the CardiAMP cell therapy system Sham Control Group: Subjects treated with a Sham Treatment (no introduction of the Helix transendocardial delivery catheter, no administration of aBMC)

Some data exist about the efficacy and safety of rotational atherectomy, intravascular lithotripsy and excimer laser to modify calcified plaques. However there is no direct randomized comparison between these three tools in this scenario. The aim of this pilot randomized trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of these three techniques during PCI of moderate to severe calcified lesions.

"Xuefu-Zhuyu capsule" (XFZY) is made from a classic Fangji "Xuefu-Zhuyu Decoction" in an ancient Chinese medical book "Yi Lin Gai Cuo" by Chinese physician Wang Qingren, which is the most representative formula for the treatment of "Qizhi-Xueyu Zheng" (Qi Stagnation and Blood Stasis Syndrome). XFZY concludes 11 kinds of Chinese herbs: Danggui(Angelica sinensis), Honghua(Safflower Flower), Chishao(Paeoniae Radix Rubra), Shengdihuang(Radix Rehmanniae), Taoren(Peach Seed), Zhike(Fructus Aurantii), Jugeng(Platycodon grandiflorum), Chuanxiong(Rhizome of Chuanxiong), Chaihu(Radix Bupleuri), Chuanniuxi(Cyathula Officinalis),Gancao(liquorice).It is mainly used to treat "Qizhi-Xueyu Zheng", which includes the symptoms such as different types of pain, irritability or depression, insomnia, chest tightness, dark skin, lumps or masses in vitro or in vivo, petechiae on the tongue, and dark purple tongue. The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of XFZY in treating "Qizhi-Xueyu Zheng", and investigate the most suitable diseases of XFZY.

This study is multi-center, open label, two-by-two factorial, randomized, noninferiority trial to compare the efficacy and safety of polymer-free cobalt-chromium thin drug-coated stents (BioFreedom Ultra) with biodegradable polymer ultrathin sirolimus-eluting stents (Orsiro Mission) and prasugrel monotherapy after 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) of aspirin plus prasugrel with 12-month DAPT of aspirin plus prasugrel in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective to evaluate the effect of Shexiang Baoxin Pill on myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction (non obstructive coronary heart disease) through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical multicenter study.At the same time, the effects of exercise tolerance and quality of life were also observed.

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HS-001 CS transplanted into severe heart failure patients with underlying ischemic heart disease for 26 weeks after transplantation.

This trial aimed to assess whether assumed increase in physical activity after tele-exercise training can improve cardiorespiratory fitness of patients with cardiometabolic multimorbidity.

Coronary restenosis has been one of the main reasons affecting the prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). With drug-eluting stents (DES), which elutes an antiproliferative drug to the vessel wall and reduces the restenosis rate; however, the incidence of restenosis is still about 10%. The late stent thrombosis and restenosis, with a hazard of nearly 2% per year after implantation, remained a concern and motivated the development of drug-coated balloons (DCB). DCB angioplasty has the following advantages compared with DES implantation: Firstly, the drug in DCB is uniformly distributed and released; whereas the drug release of DES via stent platform is uneven -85% of the vascular wall is not covered by the stent strut. Secondly, there is no alloy in the vessel after DCB angioplasty, while the coronary stent platform and polymer might cause temporal or persistent inflammatory response leading to intimal hyperplasia. Finally, there is no metal cage restraining vessel motion after DCB, the physiological function of coronary arteries would be maintained. Studies with the strategy of DCB angioplasty with bailout stenting have demonstrated safety and efficacy for the small-vessel disease. The application of DCB in large vessels with de novo lesions is still to be investigated. The DEBUT study showed that in high bleeding risk patients aimed using only 1-month DAPT, DCB was superior to BMS in terms of MACE [MACE (cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction or revascularization of ischemia-reperfusion target lesions)] at 9-month follow-up. However, there is still a lack of evidence comparing the DCB versus DES in large vessels with de novo lesions. The current study aims to investigate if in patients undergoing PCI for de novo stenoses in large vessels, DCB is non-inferior to DES.

Recent studies have shown that withdrawing aspirin and maintaining P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy for up to 12 months post-PCI, after a brief period of DAPT, reduces bleeding without increasing ischemic harm. Such effects have shown to of particular benefit in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, if an aspirin-free approach can be considered after this time frame is a matter of debate. The aim of this study is to assess the PD effects of ticagrelor 60 mg with and without aspirin therapy in CAD patients and to compare this with a standard DAPT regimen of aspirin plus clopidogrel.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of 8 weeks of a stress reduction intervention on atherosclerotic plaque inflammation in adults with stable coronary artery disease, as quantified by positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in individuals with increased psychosocial stress.
