Study Title Principal Investigator
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Serelaxin When Added to Standard Therapy in Acute Heart Failure Patients
This Phase IIIb outcome study in AHF patients is designed as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven study in order to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of intravenous infusion of serelaxin or placebo. The AHF patients randomized to either serelaxin or placebo in the study will be followed for a period of 180 days, and are required to receive standard-of-care background HF management during both the index hospitalization and post discharge according to regional or local guidelines/institutional standards.

A Phase II, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Mycophenolate Mofetil and Rilonacept (Anti-interleukin-1) in Patients With Alcoholic Hepatitis
This is a prospective, randomized trial of two experimental treatments, prednisolone + mycophenolate mofetil and prednisolone + rilonacept, in comparison with standard of care, in patients with alcoholic hepatitis. Patients will start therapy with prednisolone. At Day 8 response to prednisolone will be determined using the Lille score. Patients with a Lille score ≥ 0.45 will be randomized to standard of care (continue prednisolone, stop all therapy and/or offer palliative care) or to have prednisolone continued and mycophenolate added for the next three weeks. Patients with a Lille score <0.45 will be randomized to continue prednisolone alone (standard of care) or to have rilonacept added to their treatment regimen (experimental group) for the next three weeks. Patients will complete follow-up visits at Week 12 and Week 24.

A Postmarketing Observational Study to Assess Respiratory Tract Adverse Events in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Patients Treated With Tyvaso® (Treprostinil) Inhalation Solution
A post marketing surveillance to determine the type and incidence of oro/nasopharyngeal or pulmonary adverse events that may occur in patients treated with commercially available Tyvaso®(treprostinil) Inhalation Solution. A comparison will be made to the type and incidence of events in patients receiving other FDA approved therapies for pulmonary arterial hypertension, as a control measure.

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 3 Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of ART-123 in Subjects With Severe Sepsis and Coagulopathy.
Study is to evaluate if ART-123 given to patients who have severe sepsis complicated by at least one organ dysfunction and coagulopathy can decrease mortality.

A pilot study of a mobile app to collect magnetic resonance imaging information in patients with multiple sclerosis
This pilot study examines the ability of a mobile application (app) to collect data from active tasks (such as questionnaires, 6Mapp™, COGapp™, VISapp™) and clinical magnetic resonance imaging information to analyze the extent to which genetics impact subjects with multiple sclerosis. Recruitment to the study will be done through different sources: patient advocacy groups, social media tools, clinicaltrials.gov, and flyers.

International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches (ISCHEMIA)
BACKGROUND: Evidence supporting a routine invasive practice paradigm for patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) is outdated. In strategy trials conducted in the 1970s, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) improved survival as compared with no CABG in SIHD patients with high-risk anatomic features. The relevance of these studies today is speculative because contemporary secondary prevention—aspirin, beta-blockers, statins, ACE inhibitors, and lifestyle interventions—were used minimally if at all. Subsequent trials have compared percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with medical therapy, as PCI has replaced CABG as the dominant method of revascularization for SIHD. To date, PCI has not been shown to reduce death or myocardial infarction (MI) compared with medical therapy in SIHD patients. COURAGE and BARI 2D, the two largest trials comparing coronary revascularization vs. medical therapy in SIHD patients, found that among patients selected on the basis of coronary anatomy after cath, an initial management strategy of coronary revascularization (PCI, PCI or CABG, respectively) did not reduce the primary endpoints of death or MI (COURAGE), or death (BARI 2D) compared with OMT alone. These data suggest, but do not prove, that routine cath--which often leads to ad hoc PCI through the diagnostic-therapeutic cascade--may not be required in SIHD patients. However, most patients enrolled in COURAGE and BARI 2D who had ischemia level documented at baseline had only mild or moderate ischemia, leaving open the question of the appropriate role of cath and revascularization among higher risk patients with more severe ischemia. Observational data suggest that revascularization of patients with moderate-to-severe ischemia is associated with a lower mortality than medical therapy alone, but such data cannot establish a cause and effect relationship. In clinical practice only about half such patients are referred for cath, indicating equipoise. Furthermore, analysis of outcomes for 468 COURAGE patients with moderate-to-severe ischemia at baseline did not reveal a benefit from PCI. This issue cannot be resolved using available data because all prior SIHD strategy trials enrolled patients after cath, introducing undefined selection biases (e.g., highest risk patients not enrolled) and making translation of study results problematic for clinicians managing patients who have not yet had cath. A clinical trial in SIHD patients uniformly at higher risk (which could not have been performed before COURAGE and BARI 2D results were available) is needed to inform optimal management for such patients. DESIGN NARRATIVE: The study protocol is final, and was distributed to sites February 2012. Study protocol v2.0 was approved in January 2014.
