Unstable Angina clinical trials at UCSF
2 research studies open to eligible people
Dalcetrapib on CV Risk in a Genetically Defined Population With a Recent ACS
open to eligible people ages 45 years and up
This is a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, phase 3 multicenter study in subjects recently hospitalized for ACS and with the appropriate genetic profile. Subjects will provide informed consent before any study-specific procedures are performed. A separate informed consent will be allowed for an initial pre-screening genetic testing. Subjects meeting the AA genotype will then consent to the full study and confirmatory genetic testing as required. Subject enrollment may begin in the hospital and will continue following release from the hospital or may begin following release from hospital. Screening procedures may be performed at the time of the index ACS event or anytime thereafter, with the condition that randomization must occur within the mandated window (up to12 weeks after the index event). Subjects will be assessed based on their medical history. Those who are likely to qualify will undergo Genotype Assay testing to evaluate genetic determination for the presence of AA genotype.

Infrasensor for Early Detection of a High-grade Obstructive NSTE-ACS
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The objective of this prospective, cross-sectional, multicenter pivotal trial study is to validate Infrasensor's clinical performance for the detection of high grade obstructive NSTE-ACS. High-grade obstructive NSTE-ACS is defined as an acute coronary syndrome in which severe obstructive coronary artery disease, including total coronary artery occlusion is present. Study Endpoints Primary Endpoint: Infrasensor performance (Lower bound of 95% CI for sensitivity, specificity) between device detection of high-grade obstructive NSTE-ACS and angiographic diagnosis of High-grade obstructive CAD defined as the aggregate of >50% left main stenosis, or >70% stenosis in 1 or more coronary arteries and/or emergent revascularization. Secondary Endpoint: Infrasensor performance (positive and negative predictive values, and overall accuracy).
