The purpose of this research study is to determine whether rosuvastatin is safe and can help people living with cirrhosis lead longer, healthier lives. The study drug, rosuvastatin, is investigational, meaning it has not yet been approved for market use for this disease condition by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Participants will…
This is a prospective multicenter study whose purpose is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 and SAPIEN 3 Ultra valves with Commander delivery system in patients with severe symptomatic calcific mitral valve disease with severe mitral annular calcification (which is a progressive loss of function of the mitral valve due to…
This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will compare the clinical outcome of MitraClip device versus surgical repair in patients with severe primary MR who are at moderate surgical risk and whose mitral valve has been determined to be suitable for correction by MV repair surgery by the cardiac surgeon on the local site heart team. In this trial,…
LCN Cohort Study is an observational study designed to identify risk factors and develop prediction models for risk of decompensation in adults with liver cirrhosis. LCN Cohort Study involves multiple institutions and an anticipated 1200 participants. Enrolled participants will have study visits every 6 months for a total of 3 years. Some of the visit…
The study is designed to compare the safety and effectiveness of the PASCAL System to the MitraClip System for reduction of degenerative mitral regurgitation.
This is a prospective, single arm, three stage, multi-site, clinical investigation evaluating the safety and efficacy of the Carag Bioresorbable Septal Occluder (CBSO) to treat patients with clinically significant hole in the atrial septal defect compared to other commercially approved devices. The study is being done to determine the safety and efficacy of…
The Red-C 3131 Study is a phase 3 study is looking to see if a study medicine, rifaximin, can safely delay or prevent HE in adults who have been diagnosed with advanced liver cirrhosis. Adults who have been diagnosed with advanced liver cirrhosis, but who don't yet have HE may be eligible to join. About 466 patients will be enrolled across 200 sites.…
This study is designed to look at the safety and performance of The Intrepid TMVR System using transfemoral transseptal access (TF). TF is a procedure that requires access to the femoral vein by an incision in the lower limb between the knee and the hip. The study population is for patients with severe, symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR), a condition…
The Millipede Feasibility Study is a prospective, open-label, single-arm study to assess the safety and feasibility of the Millipede Transcatheter Annuloplasty Ring System in subjects with functional mitral regurgitation. The Millipede Annuloplasty Ring System is a novel transcatheter, fully adjustable, complete annuloplasty repair device for the treatment…
This prospective, multicenter, open-label, single arm, first-in human study will enroll up to 75 subjects aimed at examining the performance of the LAAC device for LAA closure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new device to treat patients who may benefit from the repair of their mitral heart valve due to mitral regurgitation. The device is called the Edwards Cardioband System (Edwards Cardioband System or the device). The device is investigational in the United States but has been approved in Europe. This clinical study…
The purpose of this research is to find out whether it is safe to shorten the length of time that people at high risk for bleeding take blood thinners after being treated with a coronary stent.
This study is for patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and require a stent placement. The purpose of this clinical research study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Orsiro stent or a non-investigational Xience stent. The Orsiro stent is investigational, which means it is not yet approved by the FDA and can only be used in research…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether cirrhosis occurs as a result of NASH. NASH is a disease that results when fat accumulates in the liver. GS-6624 is an experimental medication designed to help reverse the scarring process, and the purpose of this study is to see if GS-6624 can reverse the scarring in the liver and heal cirrhosis.
The purpose of this research study, is to learn whether an experimental device (called Evolut R) can help clear hardened blockage in coronary arteries (blood vessels that feed the heart muscle) in patients with a disease is called aortic stenosis.Subjects that choose to participate and are eligible will have their interventional cardiologist use this device…
This trial is a non-randomized, prospective, multi-center early feasibility study to evaluate the safety and performance of the AccuCinch system in patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction HFrEF
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the drug OCR-002 for the treatment of an acute hepatic encephalopathy episode in cirrhotic patients requiring hospitalization. Subjects who have been recently hospitalized will potentially receive OCR-002 via infusion on top of their standard care for 5 days. Patients will be assessed 24-hours after…
The purpose of this study is to see if a new medication called ticagrelor given twice daily ismore effective than aspirin alone in preventing the occurrence of heart attack, stroke and/ordeath due to cardiovascular events in patients who have type 2 diabetes. Ticagrelor is anantiplatelet therapy (stop platelets from clumping together) and is approved for…
The purpose of this study is to survey patients who have undergone a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at Columbia University Medical Center in which the physician used a stent called the Promus Premier stent. Patients will be asked to do a brief 15-30 minute survey regarding their health since the PCI and stent implantation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Biosensors BioFreedom Biolimus A9 Drug Coated Coronary Stent on people with coronary artery disease (blockages in the heart arteries) to determine if it is safe and effective.
