Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to evaluate comparisons between a hybrid program of center-based CR which incorporates mHealth remote case management technology (CON+) to a traditional center-based program alone (CON) as well as comparisons between home-based mHealth remote case management alone (HOM+) to a traditional center-based program (CON).

The main purpose of the study is to examine the effect of two different high intensity interval training (HIIT) prescription approaches on improving fitness, heart function, and the ability of the body's muscles to receive oxygen. The two approaches of the same total exercise durston will include: 1) HIIT with progressively increased interval durations (PRO-HIIT) versus 2) HIIT with constant shorter interval durations (CON-HIIT). The study hypothesis is that the progressively increased interval duration at high-intensity (PRO-HIIT) will result in a greater increases in fitness, heart function, and the ability of the body's muscles to receive oxygen in patients enrolled in cardiac rehabilitation. 

The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of selatogrel when self-administered upon occurrence of symptoms suggestive of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in subjects at risk of having a recurrent AMI.

The secondary objective is to assess the safety of self-administration of selatogrel.

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if there are significant differences with respect to baseline between those randomized to CGo and standard-of-care versus standard-of-care alone after completing 12-weeks of therapy in terms of peripheral endothelial function measured by EndoPAT.

The purpose of this study is to determine the acute and long-term dose limiting toxicities of intracoronary infused PEP and the maximum tolerated dose in a cohort of coronary stent implantation patients.

The purpose of this trial is to identify cancer survivors who are at increased risk of developing late-occurring complications after undergoing treatment for childhood cancer. A patient's genes may affect the risk of developing complications, such as congestive heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and second cancer, years after undergoing cancer treatment. Genetic studies may help doctors identify survivors of childhood cancer who are more likely to develop late complications.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether DDP3 identifies patients at early risk of cardiogenic shock presenting with STEMI in order to benefit from more aggressive cardiology scrutiny.

The purpose of this study is to establish a registry that will address the data gap regarding the course of NSTEMI (Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction) between ED (Emergency Department) arrival and diagnostic angiography in detail, by characterizing and following the ED and peri-ED use of advanced OAP (Oral Anti-Platelet) agents. In addition to exploring ED treatment patterns and success of both ischemic and bleeding risk stratification prior to definition of the coronary anatomy, data generated via the UPSTREAM registry will allow plausible attribution of ischemic and bleeding outcomes to pre-catheterization antiplatelet therapy in the management of NSTEMI. This registry further seeks to demonstrate that contemporary use of upstream ticagrelor is associated with an economically-sound utilization of hospital resources, and smooth transition of care into the outpatient, secondary prevention setting for the first 30 days after hospitalization. Finally, it will allow characterization of patient selection factors and processes for ticagrelor vs alternative OAP agents, carrying out that descriptive comparison through discharge. Patients transferred in to an UPSTREAM hospital are eligible for inclusion, but the timing for OAP agent administration and diagnostic catheterization begin with ED care at the first hospital.

The purpose of this study is to characterize TRPC6 risk variants for doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity in prospectively collected samples from breast cancer patients.   

Breast cancer patients are more than three times at risk for developing congestive heart failure (CHF), compared with patients who did not have cancer. The increased risk of HF is observed as early as one year from diagnosis of cancer and overall, 7% of patients develop CHF (median follow-up 8.5 years)
