We are doing this study to test the use of a drug called bromocriptine for women with a condition called Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). The study will look at how the heart muscle improves in women taking bromocriptine compared to a group of women given a placebo or inactive pill.
The purpose of this study is to find out if the study medicine called EDIT-301 will help in the treatment of Severe Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and how safe it is to be used in people. EDIT-301 (study medicine) is a new investigational therapy which uses the patient's own stem cells, modifies them by CRISPR technology, and infuses them back to the…
The purpose of this study is to learn about whether the study drug (PF-07209326) is safe and effective in people with sickle cell disease and learn about what the right dose is. We will look at drug levels in the blood, see how fast drug levels rise and fall, and what effects the drug has, all of which are known as the pharmacokinetics (PK) and…
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and long-term effects of CK-3773274 and to learn how well it is tolerated at different, increasing dose levels in participants with HCM.
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…
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 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 compare the effect of the investigational drug, Mavacamten, to a placebo (an inactive drug). This is being done to evaluate whether Mavacamten is safe in obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients and helps to improve symptoms or ability to exercise. Mavacamten is an investigational drug. This means that it has…
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…
The purpose of this research is to learn how to help parent youth pairs work together to help youth with sickle cell disease take hydroxyurea every day as a daily habit. This study is for children and teens ages 10-18 with Sickle Cell Anemia taking hydroxyurea, and their parents (or guardians). Many children and teens do not use hydroxyurea every day. Daily…
The purpose of this outpatient study is to examine if oral Spironolactone (100mg/day) in addition to loop diuretics (water pills) can improve signs and symptoms of fluid retention in patients with heart failure and prevent hospitalization.
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…
This research study will evaluate the effectiveness of CEP-417 (Mesenchymal Precursor Cells (MPCs)) when administered through an injection catheter to your heart muscle improving your symptoms, helping your heart function better, improving your quality of life, and in reducing the number of times you may need to be hospitalized due to your heart failure.…
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 trial is to determine if people with impaired heart function, that may have been induced with chemotherapeutic drugs and/or radiation, will have improved heart function with a cardiac device that can pace the heart more efficiently using cardiac resynchronization therapy.
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.
This study is being done to see if giving your child a lower dose of chemotherapy (drug therapy), than has been used historically in bone marrow transplant, to kill his/her own diseased cells before he/she receives a bone marrow transplant, will possibly result in the permanent control of your child's sickle cell disease. Patients will receive busulfan…
