26 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, multi-center, observational study to assess the acute safety and efficacy of MINI TREK RX 1.20 mm for enlarging coronary luminal diameter during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures in subjects with ischemic heart disease due to stenotic lesions.
This is a study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Acolyte Catheter System used in CTO-PCI procedures. The system will be used for the placement and positioning of guidewires and catheters in the coronary vasculature for the treatment of patients with coronary chronic total occlusions with persistent symptoms following medical therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the coraFlex, coraForce, and coraCross catheters for crossing chronic total occlusions of the coronary arteries. The study will compare the rate of procedure success to success rates from previous trials. Participants will undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for a chronic total occlusion and be followed for 30 days post-procedure.
CrossBoss First is a single-blind randomized controlled trial that will randomize 246 patients undergoing clinically-indicated Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, to upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter vs. antegrade guidewire escalation strategy The "CrossBoss First" study has two primary objectives. The primary efficacy objective is to compare the procedure time required to cross the CTO or abort the procedure with a CrossBoss first vs. antegrade wire escalation strategy. The investigators hypothesize that upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter will be associated with shorter procedure time required for CTO crossing compared with an antegrade wire escalation strategy. The primary safety objective is to compare the frequency of procedural major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) with upfront use of CrossBoss vs. a guidewire escalation strategy. The investigators hypothesize that upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter will be associated with similar incidence of MACE compared with an antegrade wire escalation strategy. The secondary endpoints are: (1) technical and procedural success4-6; (2) total procedure time (defined as the interval between administration of local anesthesia for obtaining vascular access and removal of the last catheter); (3) fluoroscopy time to cross the CTO and total fluoroscopy time; (4) total air kerma radiation exposure; (5) total contrast volume; and (6) number of wires, microcatheters, balloons, and stents used.
Chronically total occlusions (CTO) are difficult to treat and have high risk for restenosis. Although everolimus-eluting stents (EES) \[(Xience, Abbott Vascular) or Promus (Boston Scientific)\] are very promising for the treatment of CTOs due to their low late loss and excellent deliverability, there are currently no published data on EES implantation in CTOs. The specific aim of this proposal is to examine the 8-month incidence of binary angiographic in-stent restenosis (defined as a stenosis of \> 50% of the minimum lumen diameter of the target stent) after implantation of the EES in CTO. It is the investigators hypothesis that EES-treated CTO lesions will have ≤ 20% 8-month in-stent binary angiographic restenosis rate.
The purpose of this study is to study whether percutaneous chronic total occlusion (CTO) revascularization, by the use of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), stenting, guidewire, and catheter, improves a patient's quality of life and their left ventricular function, reduces angina severity, and improves long-term survival.
Anti-anginal drugs relieve ischemia and symptoms by reducing myocardial oxygen demand by reducing heart rate and or contractility (beta-blockers, phenylalkylamine and benzothiazepineate classes of calcium antagonists) or vasodilatation of the venous system (fall in pre-load) and coronary vessels. Late sodium channels remain open for longer in the presence of myocardial ischaemia. Ranolazine, a novel anti-anginal agent, acts by inhibiting the inward late inward sodium current (INaL), reducing intracellular sodium accumulation and consequently intracellular calcium overload via the sodium/calcium exchanger. It is currently thought that this reduction in intracellular calcium reduces diastolic myocardial stiffness and therefore compression of the small coronary vessels. There is considerable animal data to support this theory. There are good theoretical reasons to postulate that patients with chronically occluded vessels may derive less benefit from conventional anti-anginal agents, particularly vasodilators. The ischemic myocardium, subtended by the occluded vessel, will already be subject to significant concentrations of paracrine vasodilators such as adenosine. Ranolazine, therefore, may on the basis of its mechanism of action, provide greater relief of ischemia in such patients than conventional anti-anginal agents.
A prospective, multi-center, single-arm study to establish the safety and effectiveness of the XIENCE V® Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent, XIENCE nano™ Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent, XIENCE PRIME™ LL Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent, HT PROGRESS and HT PILOT Coronary Guide Wires, and MINI-TREK Coronary Dilatation Catheter in patients undergoing elective percutaneous revascularization of native chronic total coronary occlusions
The goal of this project is to provide an improvement in wire performance to expedite crossing difficult lesions in the coronary vasculature.
Prospective, non-randomized, multicenter study in subjects with coronary artery chronic total occlusions (CTOs). Published results of safety and effectiveness of conventional techniques will be used for comparison. Enrollment of up to 149 subjects with a CTO refractory to currently marketed guidewire use and meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria at up to 15 US clinical sites. Hypothesis is that the BridgePoint Medical System is safe and effective in treating coronary CTOs compared to CTO literature.
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate confirmation of placement of any guidewire beyond the chronic total occlusion (CTO) in the true vessel lumen in patients in which at least one Asahi series of guidewires and/or Corsair microcatheter were used. Procedure success will be defined as angiographic visualization of any guidewire in a position either distal or proximal to the occlusion depending on the route of access and the absence of in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE).
The objective of this study is to evaluate angiographic confirmation of placement of any guidewire beyond the CTO, in the true vessel lumen, in patients undergoing CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in which at least one Teleflex guidewire and at least one Turnpike catheter are used.
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the a novel device called NovaCross to help cross Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions in coronary arteries.
Following unsuccessful CTO crossing a CTO modification procedure is sometimes performed. CTO PCI registries where plaque modification has been performed in some patients, report this to be safe, and associated with higher success rates at subsequent attempts. It has never been investigated whether a planned investment procedure, with an intention that both the initial and staged completion PCI are of shorter duration, could improve safety and efficacy. The investigators hypothesize that 1. A planned investment procedure in the treatment of CTOs will be associated with improved patient safety 2. A planned investment procedure will be associated with improved cumulative procedure success rates 3. A planned two stage procedure will be associated with improved patient experience
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the SoundBite™ Crossing System - Coronary (SCS-C) in a subject population with chronic coronary artery disease including Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO).
The is an observational, prospective study to evaluate the effect of the DyeVert System on contrast volume administration in patients undergoing clinically-indicated chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
XIENCE V USA is a prospective, multi-center, multi-cohort postapproval study. The objectives of this study are * To evaluate XIENCE V EECSS continued safety and effectiveness during commercial use in real world settings, and * To support the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) initiative. This initiative is designed to evaluate the composite of all death, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke (MACCE) and the survival of patients that are free from Academic Research Consortium (ARC) definite or probable stent thrombosis (ST) and that have been treated with drug eluting stents (DES) and extended dual antiplatelet therapy.
A prospective, open label, multi-center, single arm, observational study designed to evaluate the acute safety and device performance of the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter coronary dilatation catheter in predilatation of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention. One hundred seventy (170) subjects will be enrolled with a target of one hundred fifty-three (153) evaluable subjects by the angiographic core laboratory at up to 15 clinical sites with the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter PTCA dilatation catheter to pre-dilate CTO lesions in coronary arteries during their index procedure. All subjects will be screened according to the protocol inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be followed through study completion, which is defined as 24-hours post-procedure or hospital discharge, whichever comes first.
The objective of this randomized safety and observational study is to demonstrate CorPath GRX chronic total occlusion PCI is safe, and that Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory staff have no additional exposure to radiation when compared to conventional manual chronic total occlusion PCI procedures without added procedure time.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is increasingly being performed in patients with advanced coronary artery disease, but there is limited information on the techniques utilized and the procedural outcomes. The goal of this multicenter, investigator initiated registry is to collect information on treatment strategies and outcomes of consecutive patients undergoing CTO PCI among various participating centers. The information collected will be used to determine the frequency of CTO PCI performed at the participating sites and examine the procedural strategies utilized, and the procedural (both immediate and during follow-up) outcomes.
Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the US. . Heart blood vessel chronic total occlusions are 100% blockages of the heart vessels. These patients often suffer from chest pain, shortness of breath, and depression. Heart doctors thread special cables from the groin and wrist to the heart and open up these 100% blocked vessels. . This treatment improves symptoms and quality of life. Exercise is very beneficial for health. Previous studies suggest that even a 1000 steps/day increase in daily steps can improve health. But, patients with occluded heart vessels are often inactive because they have chest pain, feeling tired, or are short of breath. It is unknown whether opening these 100% blocked heart vessels will help patients have a more active lifestyle, which is good for health. The goal is to measure the impact of opening these occluded heart vessels on daily exercise in this project. Specifically, the investigators will give a smart watch to patients referred for this treatment. The smart watch will track the patients' daily steps before and after the procedure.
This is prospective cohort study in subjects with a planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of their chronic total occlusion (CTO). The study will enroll subjects who have been scheduled for a clinically-indicated cardiac catheterization, and will evaluate coronary microvascular function in all subjects meeting inclusion criteria with a coronary flow wire. Evaluation of coronary microvascular function may be performed using indirect methods, however the rationale behind the present study is to directly measure microvascular function using direct coronary flow measurements, since the subjects in the study are to undergo a clinically-indicated cardiac catheterization. The overall purpose of the study is to define the presence and severity of coronary microvascular dysfunction subjects with CTO. The study is designed to enroll 50 subjects with CTO in the span of 3 years. There will be a 6-month assessment of the outcomes of death and cardiovascular death. As the study includes FDA approved tests, there will be no safety endpoint per se, however there will be a mechanism for monitoring adverse events as will be described in detail.
The purpose of this registry study is to gather real world standard of care (SOC) data on the safety and performance on the Roxwood Medical catheter devices in the treatment of stenotic lesions and CTO.
