The objective of this study is to learn more about how safe and effective the Bare Temporary Spur Stent System is when used in patients who have blocked arteries in their lower limbs. The selection of subjects will be those with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI), a form of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) in which an artery (blood vessel) in the lower leg (…
This study is of a drug called CT1812, that is being evaluated as a possible treatment for Dementia with Lewy Bodies. In this study, which is carried out at multiple sites in the country, participants receive either CT1812 at one of two doses or placebo. The duration of the study is up to about 35 weeks. Participants receive blood tests, cerebrospinal fluid…
This is a research study for persons with memory problems that examines the utility of performing positron emission tomography (PET) scans for the brain amyloid protein found in Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this study is to find out if the drugs called Nivolumab and 5-Azacytidine can be given safely in children and young adults with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) which has come back after treatment or has not responded to standard therapy. These drugs are thought to work by turning on genes that limit the growth of cancer cells. The study drugs…
Columbia Medical Center is recruiting for a study to test whether the drug oxytocin can improve symptoms of emotion and behavior (e.g. apathy) in people with frontotemporal dementia. The study will last for up to 24 weeks (6 months). This is a crossover study, which means that each participant will receive both oxytocin and placebo (medically inactive…
The objective of the LIFE-BTK RCT is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ESPRIT BTK device (which is a bioresorbable polymeric scaffold with the everolimus drug and a bioresorbable polymeric coating mounted on a balloon dilatation catheter) compared to Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA), which is is a procedure that can open up a blocked…
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.
