In this study, participants will be randomized you will get either tiragolumab plus atezolizumab plus bevacizumab or placebo plus atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. A placebo…
The ALLEVIATE-HF study is a prospective, randomized, multi-site, interventional, investigational device exemption (IDE) study. The purpose of the study is to gain experience with utilization of an integrated device diagnostic-based risk stratification algorithm to guide patient care in subjects with NYHA class II and III heart failure. The study will…
We are doing this study to collect sensor and heart failure (HF) event data that will be used to develop and test new diagnostic (not providing therapy) features for the insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) systems. ICMs are small devices implanted under the skin and are now widely used for the long-term monitoring and detection of abnormal heart rhythms. ICMs…
The purpose of this research study is to understand if aspirin is needed in patients heart failure implanted with the HeartMate 3. Patients with devices like the HeartMate 3 take two blood thinner medicines, specifically warfarin and aspirin. Patients implanted with devices like the HeartMate 3 experience both clotting and bleeding complications. Data…

The purpose of this study is to learn more about TPST-1120. The aims of the study are to find out if TPST-1120 can be given safely to people, to determine a safe dose of the study drug, if it is safe when given in combination with other anti-cancer drugs, what effects the drug may have, and to learn more about how the body processes the study drug. This is…
Patients will be asked to participate in this research study because they have been diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) which is a type of liver cancer. By doing this study, researchers hope to: Find out more about patients that have HCC including their age, race/ethnicity, and other medical conditions they may have; learn more about how…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the NuPulseCV intravascular ventricular assist system (iVAS), a device similar to an Intra-aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) that helps circulate blood from the heart throughout the rest of the body. This study aims to: (1) See if the iVAS improves your blood circulation (2) Better understand how the iVAS device could…
The CDC estimates that 10-20% of patients with Lyme disease will go on to have chronic symptoms despite having had appropriate treatment, a condition known as Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome (PTLDS). While there is currently no known cure, various therapies are being investigated. One promising approach is the practice of meditation and yoga which have…
The purpose of the study is to characterize von Willebrand Factor (VWF) profiles in patients receiving HeartMate 3 (HM3) and compare them to HeartMate II (HMII) Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD).
