Acute Coronary Syndrome Treatments

Summary: The purpose of this investigator-initiated, multicenter, open label, randomized trial is to evaluate 1 month vs. 6 months of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients undergoing lower extremity endovascular revascularization. We hypothesize that extending dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to six months, compared to one month, will improve patency rates of target vessels following peripheral vasc...

Summary: Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is a condition in which a coronary artery becomes abnormally dilated, measuring at least 50% larger than the adjacent normal segment. Although relatively uncommon, CAE is clinically important because it can lead to abnormal blood flow and increase the risk of blood clot formation. Patients with CAE are at higher risk of angina, myocardial infarction, and complications...

Summary: Results from recent several trials provided data showing limits to the effectiveness of thrombectomy for ischemic stroke due to medium vessel occlusions.The benefit-risk profile of thrombolysis for these patients has never been investigated. We initiated a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open label, blinded-endpoint (PROBE) controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase...
