Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety Profile of Understudied Drugs

Summary: The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treati...

The Value of Late Non-Invasive Programmed Stimulation (NIPS) in the Setting of Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) Ablation to Guide the Subsequent VT Therapeutic Strategies: a Prospective Randomized Multicenter Study

Summary: The aim of this study is to define the importance of non-invasive programmed stimulation (NIPS) in risk stratification of ventricular tachycardia (VT) recurrence after catheter ablation and to determine the optimal treatment strategy. The primary objective is to establish whether a new VT ablation based on NIPS inducibility will reduce the risk of VT recurrence compared to antiarrhythmic drug ther...

Left Atrial Appendage Closure and Pulsed Field Ablation Procedure Versus Left Atrial Appendage Closure Alone in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Mild Symptoms and High Risk of Stroke: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Blind, Randomized Controlled Pilot Study

Summary: This study is a prospective, multicenter, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial to investigate whether concomitant left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) and pulsed field ablation (PFA) is more effective than LAAC alone in improving the outcomes in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with high risk of stroke. Emerging data show that some-especially those with persistent AF, high AF bu...
