Active clinical trials for "Coronary Disease"

Background Endothelial dysfunction is one of the early events in atherosclerotic plaque development. It is characterized by an increased ratio of substances with vasoconstrictive, pro-thrombotic, and proliferative properties over substances with vasolidatory, antithrombogenic and antimitogenic properties. Endothelial dysfunction is also associated with high-risk patients with coronary artery disease. Hyperglycemia, obesity, hypertension and fat mass also impair the endothelium by increasing the expression of cytokines, inflammatory markers and vascular markers. Hypothesis Administration of dapagliflozin in addition to metformin background with clinical or subclinical cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease improves endothelial function when compared to those using glibenclamide in addition to metformin. Objectives Evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin vs glibenclamide on a metformin background on endothelial function in patients with clinical or subclinical cardiovascular atherosclerotic disease and poorly controlled diabetes. Enpoints Prymary Change in flow mediated dilation (FMD) and its related endpoint (FMD post reperfusion lesion) between the randomization visit and over 12 weeks of treatment. Secondary Change in plasma nitric oxide, isoprostane, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, ET-1, leptin, adiponectin, C-reactive protein, TNF- α, interleukin-6, interleukin-2, weight and body composition (% of fat mass and % free fat mass) at the randomization visit and over 12 weeks of treatment. 3 Design Randomized, parallel-group, comparative, prospective clinical study. The study is divided in two phases: Run-in and Randomization. In the former phase, which must have the maximum period of 16 weeks, patients will visit the outpatient to adjust metformin and blood pressure medications. After run-in phase, patients that fulfill inclusion criteria will perform an ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in order to asses BP; body composition will be assessed by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA); endothelial function as assessed by flow mediated dilation and vascular cytokines. Patients will by randomized to dapagliflozin or glibenclamide on a metformin background. After 12 weeks, the ABPM, DXA and endothelial function will be assessed.

This study is a small scale pilot trial for Sirolimus Target Eluting Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold (Firesorb) in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease for the first time. The goal is to access the preliminary safety and efficacy of Firesorb implantation in the human body, and to provide evidence for subsequent large-scale, multi-center, randomized controlled clinical trials. Then provide the basis for the formal application of the product in China.

The purpose of this study is to evalute the clinical safety and effectiveness of released specification (2.25mm) of FirehawkTM Sirolimus target-eluting coronary stent system.

BIOSOLVE-III Study is a pre-market, prospective, multi-center trial to assess the acute clinical performance of the DREAMS 2G Drug-Eluting Coronary Scaffold in de novo coronary artery lesions.

To compare the effect of Phase 1 cardiac rehabilitation with lower limb paddling, with phase 1 cardiac rehabilitation without lower limb paddling Effects in Post Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) Patients.

RUC-4 is a novel, promising and fast acting (5-15 minutes) αIIbβ3 receptor antagonist with a high-grade inhibition of platelet aggregation (≥80%) shortly after subcutaneous administration. This study is designed to extend the findings in CEL-01 to patients with ST-elevation myocardial Infarction (STEMI) presenting to the cardiac catheterization laboratory with planned coronary angioplasty.

The risk and prevalence of cardiovascular disease in United Arab Emirates (UAE) is high with ischemic heart disease ranks first in terms of major cause of mortality. Large number of patients undergoes coronary angioplasty but very few participate in cardiac rehabilitation because its awareness is not widespread in middle east region. The objectives was to find the influence of standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking on Heart quality of life (Heart QoL), functional exercise capacity, Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction and metabolic equivalent task (MET's) among patients with post coronary angioplasty. The investigators conducted a randomized clinical trail in out patient physiotherapy department at Thumbay hospitals Dubai, on patients who underwent coronary artery angioplasty. After meeting the inclusion criteria, participants were randomized into standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking (intervention group) or standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program (control group). A 4 weeks of 12 outpatient cardiac rehabilitation sessions consisting of 3 sessions per week was provided to both the groups. Intervention group received standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking based on targeted heart rate and weekly steps, whereas control group received only standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program based on American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Guidelines. The investigators measured Quality Of Life (HRQoL) by HeartQoL questionnaire, Exercise Capacity by 6 min walk test (6MWT), Left ventricle Ejection fraction (LVEF) using Echocardiogram, Metabolic Equivalent Task (MET'S) using Symptom-limited exercise stress test and Average number of steps walked daily using step up smartphone Pedometer App.

This study is a Prospective, Multi-center, Single-arm clinical study, in patients with Coronary Artery Disease, including patients with silent ischemia (excluding STEMI), who qualify for elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), aimed to assess the Safety and Efficacy of the R-One device in elective PCI.

To evaluate the safety of a new bioresorbable (non-permanent) stent platform in native coronary arteries.

Impact of intraventricular electrical activation in resynchronization therapy. We seek to evaluate the impact of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) on electrical activation of the Left Ventricle (LV). The first goal of the study is to evaluate if CRT is able to decrease the heterogeneity of LV activation in heart failure patients. A second goal is to evaluate the electrical determinant of clinical response to CRT using invasive and non-invasive mapping technology.
