This clinical research study is enrolling adults with diabetes, prediabetes or metabolic syndrome. The purpose of the study is to learn more about preventing cardiovascular disease. A heart CT scan will be done at screening and then 2 years later. Qualified participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Participants in the usual care group, will continue to receive care from usual health care provider. In the personalized care group, participants will receive additional health care from a remote cardiologist led team which will individualize treatment based on Cleerly CAD staging results of the heart CT scan. Study is expected to last 3 1/2 years on average but could be 2 - 5 years. Participation is free.

The purpose of this study is to determine if patients with heart failure (HF, meaning a weak heart) with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% and with an abnormal heart beat can benefit from having pacemaker leads placed in a different location in the heart. We know that people with a weak heart and an abnormal heart beat can benefit from having a pacemaker. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to one of two treatments (A or B), both of which are standard of care heart pacing treatments:
A. Pacing the heart from two locations in the left ventricle (lower left chamber of the heart)
B. Pacing the heart from one of two other places in the heart (the "His" or the left bundle branch)

The purpose of this study is to compare side by side these two treatments and evaluate if one is better than the other.

The purpose of this research is to gather information about the effectiveness and safety of Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (LAAO) device procedures in patients using a Watchman device performed on days where doctors perform a large number of procedures.

The study primary outcome is to evaluate complications during the procedure up to 30 days after the procedure.

The final outcome is to determine successful placement within 31 - 90 days after implant.

We are doing this study to learn more about how effective, safe and tolerable an experimental drug called balcinrenone is when used in combination with dapagliflozin for treating patients with heart failure and impaired kidney function and also to better understand the studied disease and associated health problems. Dapagliflozin is an approved drug to treat patients with heart failure, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether FINErenone reduces total (first and future) Heart Failure events and cardiovascular death compared with placebo in patients hospitalized with acute decompensated Heart Failure with Mid-Range Ejection Fraction and Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF. The study will also look at information obtained from the tests performed as part of the study to see if subjects have improvement in symptoms of heart failure. Participation in this study will last approximately 36 months. During the study period subjects will be asked to attend regular study visits with the research coordinator. These visits will include such activities such as vitals, blood tests and questionnaires. There will be 8 visits as part of participation in this clinical trial. Participants will be randomized to either the treatment group (and receive the medication) or the control group (and not receive the medication). Subjects will have a 50:50 chance of receiving the study medication during their participation in the trial. The treatment assignment is determined by randomization, where a computer selects at random which treatment group you will be in (like flipping a coin). Neither the subject, nor the blinded personnel will know which group subjects are in. Neither the subject nor the study doctor will decide what group subjects are assigned.

You are invited to volunteer in this clinical research study because you have been diagnosed with tricuspid valve regurgitation.

The type of research study you are being asked to join is called an Early Feasibility Study. This means the device and procedure you are receiving (the treatment) have not been previously studied in humans, and that you will be among the first patients in the world to undergo this treatment. The Device you are receiving is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration and its safety and effectiveness are unknown.

Participants will undergo right heart catheterizations, computed tomography (CT) scans without iodinated contrast, multiple ultrasounds of the heart, labs, and other assessments. The length of subject participation in the study is 5 years and includes 11 research visits. You will have a screening right heart catheterization (RHC) to check the pressures and function of your heart. The research procedure and placement of the TRIcares Topaz Transfemoral Tricuspid heart Valve (Topaz Tricuspid Valve) will be placed in a hybrid operating room. This procedure is done by entering a vein in your groin known as the femoral vein. The purpose of this device is to eliminate the regurgitation or leaking in the tricuspid valve of the heart to help reduce the symptoms caused by this leaky valve.

The most common risks associated with the research procedure are those related to the right heart catheterization (RHC) and Topaz Tricuspid valve procedure. Major risks include bleeding and damage to the heart or surrounding blood vessels. There are no known benefits of the research device. There may be possible benefits from the research procedure including improvement in quality of life or a decrease in the symptoms caused by tricuspid regurgitation. The information that we obtain from your participation in this study will help us learn more about how safe and effective this approach is in treating the symptoms of individuals similar to yourself.

The purpose of this study is to collect blood specimens and determine the levels of natriuretic peptides in the blood in patients that are presenting with a suspicion of new onset or worsening symptoms of heart failure. Blood specimens collected during this study will be used to support expanded development of a blood test that can help physicians diagnose heart failure.

The blood test (Access BNP Assay) being developed will measure natriuretic peptides that are released into the blood when the heart muscle is stretched and working too hard. This information is being used to develop a better blood test(s).

This study involves an investigational drug called ALXN2220 for the treatment of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). Investigational means it is not yet approved for commercial use or sale by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). ALXN2220 is intended to promote the elimination of ATTR deposits leading to symptom improvement.
All participants will be randomized, meaning assigned by chance, to receive ALXN2220 or placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but contains no active medication. In this study, participants will have a 2 out of 3 chance, like drawing straws, of receiving the study drug and 1 out of 3 chance of receiving placebo. Neither the participants nor the study team or study doctor will know if they are assigned to receive the study drug or placebo. The study drug or placebo will be administered intravenously (IV), meaning into a vein in the arm, every four weeks.
Participation in this study will include a maximum of 56 visits over a maximum of 48 months. Study procedures include collection of vital signs, study drug infusion, physical exams, 12-lead electrocardiography, blood and urine collection, echocardiogram (ultrasound test of the heart), questionnaires, and some optional testing.

This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the experimental treatment named AB-1002. The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and feasibility of delivery of adeno-associated virus (AAV) through the coronary arteries into the heart in participants with heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. An experimental treatment is another option for care for your disease that is still being tested and is not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Participation in this study is expected to last one year and include up to 18 visits. Study related procedures include the following heart related testing: study drug infusion, electrocardiograms (ECG), a test to show the heart's electrical activity, echocardiogram (Echo), a test that uses ultrasound to capture moving images of the heart, cardiopulmonary stress test, sample collection including blood, urine, tissue, nasal mucus, saliva, semen, and stool, questionnaires, physical exams, and at least an overnight stay in the hospital. You will also need to take medications to suppress your immune system.

There are risks associated with this study. Risks associated with gene therapy include an immune response that may cause inflammation in the liver, heart or other organs. It may damage your red blood cells, cause a low platelet count or cause the formation of small blood clots. There are also risks related to the study procedures including bleeding associated with the heart biopsy, risks related to drawing blood, risks of radiation, and loss of confidentiality. There may be no benefit to you but knowledge gained from this study may benefit others with heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy in the future.

Individuals with obesity and a history of heart or kidney-related disease will be eligible for participation. Study participants will have a 50:50 chance to be randomly assigned to either the treatment (retatrutide) or control (placebo) group. Retatrutide is currently considered an investigational medication as it has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of obesity or any other medical condition at this time. Study participation will last approximately 5 years and begin with a screening period to ensure correct patient selection. Research clinic visits will occur every 4 weeks initially and then every 12 weeks. Some visits may be completed virtually through telehealth or by phone. Study procedures include but are not limited to: blood draws, questionnaires, self injection of study medication, medical history review, vital signs, and electrocardiogram. The medication will be injected subcutaneously once a week. The medication's purpose is to facilitate weight loss and decrease a subject's risk for heart or kidney related disease progression or events.
