Hypertension Paid Clinical Trials in Illinois

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of once daily oral inhalation dose of MK-5475 380 µg in participants 40 to 85 years (inclusive) with Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (PH-COPD). The primary hypothesis of the study is MK-5475, a soluble Guanylate Cyclase (sGC) stimulator is superior to placebo in increasing 6 Minute Walking Distance (6MWD) from baseline at Week 24. Read Less

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the long-term use of TPIP in participants with PAH from studies INS1009-201 (NCT04791514), INS1009-202 (NCT05147805) and other lead-in studies of TPIP in participants with PAH. Read Less

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 treating provider. Read Less

The purpose of the bpMedManage study is to rigorously test the efficacy of a smartphone technology to help improve high blood pressure medication adherence among older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a 16-week randomized controlled trial. A total of 100 older adults will be recruited. There will be two treatment arms, bpMedManage-S and bpMedManage-P with 50 participants in each arm. Participants randomized into the bpMEDManage-S intervention arm will use a smartphone application with medication reminders plus receive education with standardized information on hypertension and antihypertensive medications on the education portal. Participants in the bpMedManage-P group will use a smartphone to receive education with standardized information on hypertension and antihypertensive medications on an education portal. Both groups will complete baseline assessments followed by 4 weeks of medication adherence monitoring. At the end of the adherence monitoring period, participants will be randomized into one of the two treatment arms. Immediate outcomes on primary and secondary measures will be assessed 4 weeks after beginning of the intervention. Follow-up outcomes will be assessed 12 weeks after the beginning of the intervention. Read Less

The goal of this observational patient registry is to learn how expert centers treat patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). CTEPH is a condition in which blood clots block the blood vessels in the lungs. There are currently three treatment options for patients with CTEPH: surgery to remove blood clots from large vessels in the lungs (pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA)) the use of a small balloon to unblock smaller blood vessels (balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA)) drugs Patients can also receive a combination of these treatments. The main question this registry aims to answer are: How many patients receive a given kind of treatment? How do expert centers combine the different treatments? Are patients doing better after they receive a given kind of treatment? How many patients are alive 1, 3 and 5 years after they receive a given kind of treatment? Participants will receive the same treatments that they would receive if they did not participate in the study. During the study, patients will visit their doctors as they would do normally. The doctors will collect information on the patients' health and enter it into the study database. The follow-up time will be at least 3 years for all patients. Read Less

The main objective of the study is to assess the effect of treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP) compared with placebo on pulmonary vascular resistance. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of early and rapid treprostinil therapy for mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) reduction to improve right ventricular (RV) function and reverse RV remodeling in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Read Less

The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NCX 470 Ophthalmic Solution in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in subjecs with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to NCX 470 0.1% or to latanoprost 0.005% to be administered to both eyes once daily in the evening for up to 12 months. Read Less

This is a 12-month behavioral cluster-randomized trial testing a church-based intervention to reduce blood pressure in African Americans with uncontrolled blood pressure. Read Less

The goal of this study is to implement a pilot focusing on developing training manuals and materials for patients and the clinical team to ensure our intervention is delivered consistently and systematically for each patient. Read Less

The goal of this study is to understand if SLT performed at low energy is as effective as SLT performed at standard energy, and also to see if repeating SLT at low energy once a year will prevent or delay the need for daily eye drop medications better than waiting for SLT to wear off before repeating it.

The purpose of this study is to test the proof-of-concept for adding a novel mHealth application, USeeBP, to the established UChicago Medicine Ambulatory Medicine Remote-Patient Monitoring (UCM-RPM) Hypertension Management Program in a population of African American adults with poorly controlled hypertension.
