A research team at Columbia University Irving Medical Center is collecting information for a registry studying how safely and effectively the ClotTriever device works in treating patients at least 18 years old with Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), or blood clots in the vessels of the leg. The sponsor of this study, Inari Medical, Inc., is paying the research…
The purpose of the ELEVATE CF study is to evaluate an oral investigational medication called VX-440 tosee if it is safe, effective, and well-tolerated when taken alone or with two other oral medications(VX-661 tezacaftor and ivacaftor) in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). This triple combination(TC) is being tested to see if it improves chloride transport (…
Are you scheduled for an interventional vascular procedure, such as a Trans-catheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR), Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR), Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR), or Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty (BAV)? If yes, you may be eligible for this trial. This research trial studies the safety and efficacy of an Investigational…
Acute inner ear hearing loss is the sudden onset of hearing loss, usually in one ear, without any known cause. Acute hearing loss can permanently destroy some of the hair cells (that govern the sense of hearing) and / or hearing nerve in the inner ear.The drug AM-111 has been developed to protect the hearing cells and nerve following sudden inner ear…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of study drug CCX168 when it is given to patients who are receiving the standard therapy for a certain type of vasculitis called ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). The study will also assess the effectiveness of the study drug, CCX168, in combination with the standard treatment of AAV. This…
The main purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of study drug CTX-4430 when compared to a placebo (sugar pill) taken once-daily for 48 Weeks in adult patients with CysticFibrosis (CF).
Has your doctor determined that you have Type B Aortic Dissection and you would like to learn more about an alternative to open surgery? Type B Aortic Dissection patients are being invited to take part in a research study of an investigational device. Bolton Medical, Inc., the company sponsoring this clinical trial, is studying an investigational device…
The purpose of this research is to find out whether it is safe to use a virus to deliver a new gene to the inner ear of people with hearing loss. This is a kind of gene therapy which involves gene transfer. Once the genetic material and vector are surgically administered to you, it is not possible to remove these agents. The study is designed to evaluate…
The purpose of this study is see if an experimental gene product, the Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) Plasmid (AMG0001) which will be injected into the affected leg's muscles is effective in treating the blockages in your leg without causing adverse effects. Affected leg means the leg that has the severest disease relating to the blockage or narrowing…
This study is for patients who have been prescribed tobramycin inhalation powder (TOBI Podhaler) or another inhaled medication used to treat cystic fibrosis patients whose lungs contain bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The purpose of this research study is to assess how well TOBI Podhaler works on treating Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the lungs of…
Has your doctor determined that you have Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), and that an artery in your upper leg is blocked as a result? Is blood flow to your upper leg(s) blocked?This study will test the safety and effectiveness of the PQ Bypass System (two catheters called the DETOUR Crossing Device and the DETOUR Snare) in improving blood flow to your…
This study is being done to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of study drug VX-661 in combination with ivacaftor in patients aged 12 years and older with Cystic Fibrosis (CF).
