Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Ischemia"

The PRESILLION Study is a non-randomized, multi-center, single-arm study evaluating the safety of an approved Cobalt Chromium bare metal stent system for the treatment of ischemic heart disease attributable to a stenotic de novo lesion in a native coronary artery. The study population will include 100 patients with up to two de novo native coronary artery lesions with a maximum lesion length of 30mm in a maximum of two major coronary arteries with reference vessel diameter >= 2.5mm and <= 4.0mm by visual estimation. Patients will be followed for 1 month and 6 month post-procedure for assessment of MACE and all other adverse events.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dosing with mipomersen for 26 weeks in treating severely hypercholesterolemic patients who are on a maximally tolerated lipid-lowering regimen and who are not on apheresis.

One of the most common ways for preventing coronary heart disease (CHD) is to take aspirin or clopidogrel. However, studies have shown that not all people respond to these medications. The variance in treatment response may be linked to genetics. This study will examine the effects of aspirin and clopidogrel in a population whose genes are well known in order to determine the role that genes play in treatment responses.

OBJECTIVES: The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Supralimus - Core™ Sirolimus Eluting Stent in de novo native vessel obstructive coronary artery disease. STUDY DESIGN: This is a single centre, prospective study. Approximately 105 patients were enrolled in the study. Patients were followed for twelve months post-procedure. All patients were to have a repeat angiography at 8 months. STUDY POPULATION: The study population consisted of approximately 105 patients with de novo native vessel obstructive coronary artery disease with no specific criteria. Patients from the daily practice were included. Patients had to meet all eligibility criteria for inclusion into the study. ENDPOINTS: The primary safety endpoint of the study is defined as Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) at 30 days. The primary efficacy endpoint is the in-stent binary restenosis rate at 8-month follow-up determined by off-line Quantitative Coronary Angiography. The following secondary efficacy endpoints were assessed Angiographic success Procedure success Quantitative Coronary Angiography derived vessel parameters in-stent and 5 mm proximal and 5 mm distal from the edge of the stent: acute gain, MLD, % DS, late loss, mean diameter. In-stent pre-, post and at 8-month follow-up. Clinically justified Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) at 12 months The following secondary safety endpoints were assessed: MACE until 12 months Device related SAEs until 12 months Angiographic stent thrombosis: Subacute (after procedure until 30 days) and Late (after 30 days until 12 months)

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common disorder that can lead to heart failure. Not all people with CAD are eligible for today's standard treatments. One new treatment approach uses stem cells-specialized cells capable of developing into other types of cells-to stimulate growth of new blood vessels for the heart. This study will determine the safety and effectiveness of withdrawing stem cells from someone's bone marrow and injecting those cells into the person's heart as a way of treating people with CAD and heart failure.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the AVJ-09-385 Small Vessel Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (EECSS) (2.25 mm diameter stent) in treatment of subjects with ischemic heart disease caused by de novo lesions.

The purpose of this study is to see whether apadenoson is as effective as adenosine when used as a pharmacological stress agent in myocardial SPECT-imaging (SPECT-MPI)to detect defects in the supply of blood to the heart muscle (myocardial perfusion defects). The study will also look at whether apadenoson is better tolerated than adenosine when used in SPECT-MPI.

The objective of the study is To verify the safety and efficacy of the MDT-4107 Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent in the treatment of de novo lesions in native coronary arteries with a reference vessel diameter (RVD) that allows the use of 2.25mm diameter stents.

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

The purpose of this study is to assess the extent to which combining exercise and stress management training (SMT) is more effective at improving biomarkers in vulnerable cardiac patients compared to exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation alone.
