Current Trials

ACTIVELY ENROLLING STUDIES
 
Acute Coronary Syndrome 
TRANSLATE ACS: An observational study to evaluate “real world” effectiveness and use of Prasugrel and other ADP receptor inhibitors among MI patients treated with PCI during index hospitalization.

VISTA-16: A double-blind randomized study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of A-002 when added to atorvastatin plus standard-of-care in subjects with ACS. Subjects will be randomized to either a-002 500mg QD or placebo, in addition to atorvastatin plus standard-of-care, within ≤96 hours of index event diagnosis.

Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients with Low Ejection Fraction <35% (Weak Heart Muscle)  
VEST: To find out whether wearing a LifeVest external defibrillator (device that can shock the heart back to a normal rhythm) can prevent death from an abnormal heart rhythm in the two months after a heart attack.  

Atrial Fibrillation
ACT V: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Vernakalant Hydrochloride Injection in patients with recent onset symptomatic atrial fibrillation. (Temporarily “ON HOLD”)

Carotid Stent
CHOICE: Registry to provide additional information that the commercially available Abbott Vascular Carotid Stent Systems and Embolic Protection Systems can be used successfully by a wide range of physicians under commercial-use conditions.

Congestive Heart Failure
PARADIGM: A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, active-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LCZ696 compared to enalapril on morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure and reduced ejection fraction.

Coronary Artery Disease
GE Cath (GE-145-002): To evaluate the effects of GE-145 and a comparator, Iopamidol, on cardio-renal safety in high risk elderly subjects undergoing a coronary catheterization procedure with or without PCI.

Ventral Hernia
VIBE (Post-Market Study):
 To determine how often hernia recurrence occurs after ventral hernia repair with the Veritas collagen matrix. Study also collects quality of life information.
