15 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
There has not been a prospective, randomized controlled trial of colchicine to reduce post-AF ablation pericarditis in an era of newer AF ablation techniques. The hypothesis is that an empiric pre and post AF ablation treatment protocol with colchicine may reduce the incidence and symptom severity of post-AF ablation related pericarditis. Thus, the goal of this study is to 1. Identify the incidence of post-AF ablation related pericarditis in patients undergoing ablation via high power, short duration strategy (shorter total RF time, but increased stability due to steerable catheters and possible difference from resistive vs conductive heating). 2. Identify potential differences in patients undergoing PVI only versus PVI + additional ablation 3. Identify whether patients on who are already on anti-inflammatories such as ASA or statins have a lower incidence than those without 4. Determine if an empiric treatment strategy with colchicine (for 7 days post ablation) reduces the incidence of post-operative AF

The goal of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of anakinra for the treatment of acute pericarditis when initiated within 6 hours of diagnosis and continued for 3 or 7 days. 1. to determine the efficacy of anakinra with respect to chest pain resolution 2. to determine the safety of anakinra with respect to adverse drug events
This is a study to understand if taking VTX2735 is safe and effective in participants diagnosed with Recurrent Pericarditis (RP). Approximately 30 patients will take VTX2735. The study consists of a 30-day Screening Period (to see if a participant qualifies for the study), a 6-week Open Label Treatment period (a participant receives active Dose A), a 7-week Extension Treatment period (a participant meets criteria for continuing and receives active Dose A) and a 14-day Follow-Up Period.
Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase-3 Trial. Patients with a history of recurrent pericarditis who are being treated with an IL-1 blocker for at least 12 months, scheduled to be discontinued, will be approached for potential trial participation. Double-blind treatment will be initiated 10 - 14 days prior to the last scheduled dose of the IL-1 blocker and continued for 24 weeks. The objective is to assess whether patients who discontinue therapy with an IL-1 blocker for recurrent pericarditis remain free of pericarditis recurrence while receiving CardiolRx.
Patients with recurrent pericarditis who are refractory or intolerant to current therapeutic management options or who require long-term administration of corticosteroids to control their disease are particularly challenging to manage. The pathogenesis of pericarditis involves the activation of the inflammasome. CardiolRxTM (a pure cannabidiol \[CBD\] solution) is known to have anti-inflammatory properties, including modulation of inflammasome signaling. This pilot study is to assess the tolerance and safety of CardiolRxTM during the resolution of pericarditis symptoms, assess improvement in objective measures of disease, and during the extension period, assess the feasibility of weaning concomitant background therapy including corticosteroids while taking CardiolRxTM.
The primary purpose of this study is the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of RPH-104 treatment in patients with recurrent pericarditis. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of RPH-104 multiple doses in this patient population will be assessed as well.
The registry will focus on furthering the understanding of the natural history of recurrent pericarditis (RP), as well as document RP-related clinical, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and economic burden and will assist the medical community to refine or develop data-driven recommendations for clinical management of RP patients to optimize clinical outcomes. It also aims to generate data in support of the impact of rilonacept on clinical outcomes in a real-world population.
The purpose of this study is to assess the preliminary efficacy and safety of KPL-914 treatment in participants with recurrent pericarditis.
The primary objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of rilonacept treatment in participants with recurrent pericarditis.
Until now, diagnosis of constriction was based on pressure changes of ventricle by conventional pressure-wide hemodynamic evaluation but not on ventricular volume change. This study will provide answers to persisting questions about volume changes during respiration in patients with constrictive pericarditis by directly measuring both right and left ventricular volume.
The primary aim of this study is to determine the clinical and radiographic findings with constrictive pericarditis in the adult congenital population and determine the degree of right heart failure and dilation from pulmonary insufficiency in the presence of constrictive pericarditis The secondary aim is to elucidate ways to better diagnose constrictive pericarditis and elucidate ways to diagnose right heart failure in the presence of constrictive pericarditis.
The COR-INSIGHT trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Peerbridge COR advanced ambulatory ECG wearables (COR 1.0 and COR 2.0) in accurately and non-invasively detecting cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary conditions using AI-based software (CardioMIND and CardioQSync). The study devices offer non-invasive, multiplexed, AI-enabled direct-from-ECG detection as a novel alternative to traditional diagnostic methods, including imaging, hemodynamic monitoring systems, catheter-based devices, and biochemical assays. Continuous COR ECG data collected in hospital, outpatient clinic, or home settings will be analyzed to evaluate the predictive accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and performance of these devices in differentiating between screen-positive and screen-negative subjects. The panel of screened indications encompasses a broad spectrum of clinically relevant cardiovascular, cardiopulmonary, and sleep-related diagnostic parameters, which are critical for advanced patient assessment and management. In the cardiovascular domain, the protocol emphasizes the detection and classification of heart failure, assessment of ejection fraction severity, and identification of myocardial infarction, including pathological Q-waves and STEMI. It further addresses diagnostic markers for arrhythmogenic conditions such as QT interval prolongation, T-wave alternans, and ventricular tachycardia, as well as insights into ischemia, atrial enlargement, ventricular activation time, and heart rate turbulence. Additional parameters, such as heart rate variability, pacing efficacy, electrolyte imbalances, and structural abnormalities, including left ventricular hypertrophy, contribute to comprehensive cardiovascular risk stratification. In the non-invasive cardiopulmonary context, the protocol incorporates metrics like respiratory sinus arrhythmia, cardiac output, stroke volume, and stroke volume variability, providing critical insights into hemodynamic and autonomic function. The inclusion of direct-from-ECG metrics for sleep-related disorders, such as the apnea-hypopnea index, respiratory disturbance index, and oxygen saturation variability, underscores the protocol's utility in addressing the intersection of cardiopulmonary and sleep medicine. This multifaceted approach establishes a robust framework for precision diagnostics and holistic patient management. The COR 1.0 and COR 2.0 wearables provide multi-lead ECG recordings, with COR 2.0 offering extended capabilities for cardiopulmonary metrics and longer battery life (up to 14 days). COR 2.0 supports tri-modal operations: (i) Extended Holter Mode: Outputs Leads II and III, mirroring the functionality of COR 1.0 for broader ECG monitoring applications. (ii) Cardiopulmonary Mode: Adds real-time recording of Lead I, V2, respiratory impedance, and triaxial accelerometer outputs, providing advanced cardiopulmonary insights. (iii) Real-Time Streaming Mode: Streams data directly to mobile devices or computers via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), enabling real-time waveform rendering and analysis. The COR 2.0 units are experimental and not yet FDA-cleared. Primary endpoints include sensitivity (true positive rate) \> 80%, specificity (true negative rate) \> 90%, and statistical agreement with reference devices for cardiovascular, cardiopulmonary, and sleep metrics. Secondary endpoints focus on predictive values (PPV and NPV) and overall diagnostic performance. The study employs eight distinct sub-protocols (A through H) to address a variety of cardiovascular, cardiopulmonary, and sleep-related diagnostic goals. These sub-protocols are tailored to specific clinical endpoints, varying in duration (30 minutes to 14 days) and type of data collection. Up to 15,000 participants will be enrolled across multiple sub-protocols. Screening ensures eligibility, and subjects must provide informed consent before participation. Dropouts and non-compliant subjects will be excluded from final analyses.
The aim of this trial will be to determine an effect-size for the administration of chronic low-dose colchicine in the reduction of serum levels of triglycerides (TG), very-low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and apolipoprotein CIII (apoCIII) in human subjects over a period of 4-6 weeks.
