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 study is for individuals who have Cushings disease and want to join voluntarily in this study to find out if a study drug called osilodrostat (LCI699) is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have Cushings disease. Cushings disease is a rare but debilitating disease. Cushings disease is caused by a benign tumor of the pituitary gland. The tumor…
The purpose of this study is to determine if measuring blood levels of proteins called POMC, AgRP, and chromogrannin A (CGA) can be used to diagnose and track tumor growth and recurrence in patients that have ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome, non-secreting pituitary tumors, and other neuroendocrine tumors. We invite you to participate if you have: a…
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,…
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 study will test a computer-based behavioral intervention to decrease cocaine use. Those who fail to achieve cocaine abstinence after the first 4 weeks while receiving the behavioral treatment will continue the behavioral treatment and be randomly assigned to one of two groups (one group will receive Adderall-XR (MAS-ER) and the other group will receive…
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…
The study is a two group outpatient study, one group receiving medications (Adderall-XR and topiramate) and one group receiving a placebo (inactive sugar pill). The study is looking at the safety and effectiveness of Adderall-XR (MAS-ER) and topiramate in the treatment of cocaine dependence. It is a 14-week trial that requires patients to attend visits 3…
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 study is to confirm the effectiveness and safety of LCI699 in treating patients with Cushing's disease. Patients will be treated with the invesitigational drug LCI699 at doses up to 60 mg a day, and possibly for a short period of time with placebo. A placebo is a dummy drug ("pill") with no active medicine inside.
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
