Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Ischemia"

The objective of this study is the assessment of the performance, safety and efficacy of the ProNOVA XR Polymer Free Drug Eluting Stent System in the treatment of patients with de novo native coronary artery lesions.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate two approaches to red blood cell transfusion in anemic patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Background: Retrospective analyses of long-term BASKET findings identified patients with large drug-eluting stents (DES) (>2.5mm Stents) as patients at risk for late cardiac death/nonfatal myocardial infarction. In view of new DES with absorbable polymers and new bare metal stents BMS) with thin struts and biocompatible polymers, BP-II will be launched to test their comparative clinical safety up to 12 years if treated with an aspirin/prasugrel combination, since prasugrel halved stent thrombosis rates compared to clopidogrel in a large ACS trial. The primary objective is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the Nobori DES stent compared to the Xience Prime DES stent on safety and e cacy in patients requiring stents >=3.0mm in diameter on the background of contemporary dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with prasugrel and aspirin Set-up: Multicenter open-label randomized trial. Patient inclusion: Unselected series of patients in need of large (>3mm) stents only in native vessels irrespective of clinical indication. Patient exclusion: In-stent restenosis, Left-main disease, cardiogenic shock, planned surgery <12months, increased bleeding risk, no compliance expected, History of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Randomization: By centre using sealed envelopes 1:1:1: Nobori:Xience Prime:Prokinetik-stent.

This is a prospective, randomized study conducted in patients undergoing coronary revascularization procedures (PCI) through angioplasty. All patients who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomized to receive, before the procedure, an oral aspirin reload (325 mg) and to be re-evaluated at 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 6 hours, 48 hours, 5 and 30 day, 3 and 6 months.

The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of coronary stenting with the Zotarolimus-Eluting stent compared to the Sirolimus-Eluting stent in the treatment of de novo coronary stenosis in patients with diabetic patients.

The clinical investigation is an international, prospective, double-blind, randomized safety and efficacy study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the NIRx(TM) Paclitaxel-Coated Stent (1.0µg/mm2 of paclitaxel incorporated into slow- and moderate-release formulation of a triblock copolymer carrier system)in patients who present for stenting of de novo lesions of a native coronary artery.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of fenofibric acid (ABT-335) + atorvastatin combination therapy with ABT-335 and atorvastatin monotherapy in subjects with multiple abnormal lipid levels in the blood.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of fenofibric acid (ABT-335) + rosuvastatin calcium combination therapy with ABT-335 and rosuvastatin calcium monotherapy in subjects with multiple abnormal lipid levels in the blood.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 3 different rapamycin-eluting-stent platforms to reduce coronary artery reblockage after stent implantation

Patients with coronary artery disease have an abnormal cardiac metabolism. The hypothesis of this study is that shifting cardiac metabolism from free fatty acids to glucose will improve myocardial ischemia
