Stent repair versus best medical care for type B dissection
This trial compares an endovascular stent (placed through blood vessels) to best medical therapy (blood pressure and pain control) for certain “uncomplicated” type B aortic dissections. It aims to see which approach works better in the early period after symptoms start.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06701656RecruitingPhase 2
Testing bevacizumab for breathing problems from ARDS
This trial tests if bevacizumab can help people with ARDS (a serious lung condition) breathe better. It is for patients with mild, moderate, or severe ARDS who are already in the hospital.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07734584Recruiting
Reducing air bubbles during aortic repair with carbon dioxide
This trial tests a special flushing method using carbon dioxide gas to prevent air bubbles from entering the bloodstream during a procedure to fix the main artery in the chest. This could help avoid strokes or other complications.
Bologna, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT04699279Recruiting
Statin after aortic surgery to protect heart and organs
This trial tests whether taking a cholesterol-lowering medicine (a statin) after certain aortic surgeries can reduce harmful changes in the heart and other organs. You might benefit by lowering the risk of ongoing damage after your acute aortic condition and surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–85 - NCT05339529Recruiting
Thymosin A1 to help protect organs after emergency aortic surgery
This study looks at whether thymosin A1 can reduce immune-related problems and organ injury after emergency surgery for an acute aortic condition. If you qualify, you may receive thymosin A1 as part of the treatment plan to see if it improves recovery.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT05965453Recruiting
Castor stent graft study for sudden type B aortic tears
This study looks at outcomes for people who had emergency (acute) type B aortic problems treated with a specific stent graft called the Castor single-branch device. It helps doctors understand how well this device works for selected patients and what factors affect results.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–95 - NCT06353607Recruiting
Genetics of aortic aneurysm and dissection
This study looks at the genetic reasons behind aortic aneurysms and sudden aortic tears. By studying people who had surgery at the University Hospital Basel, researchers hope to find inherited patterns that could help predict and prevent these serious conditions.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT04398992Recruiting
Anti-inflammatory add-on treatment after certain aortic conditions
This study tests whether an “add-on” anti-inflammatory approach can help after surgery for certain problems affecting the aorta (the body’s main artery) soon after symptoms begin. It may be designed to reduce inflammation-related complications in people who are treated quickly and can join follow-up.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06533358RecruitingPhase 2
Testing MT1002 for heart attack patients getting a stent
This study tests an investigational medicine called MT1002 in people who have had a heart attack and are about to get a stent (PCI). The goal is to see if MT1002 helps prevent further heart problems.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07558538RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Inhaled Growth Factor Treatment for Severe Lung Failure
This early-stage trial tests whether an inhaled medication called recombinant human keratinocyte growth factor-2 (rh-KGF-2) can help patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)—a serious condition where the lungs cannot deliver enough oxygen to the blood. The drug is designed to help repair lung tissue damage.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06279663Recruiting
Comparing bypass surgery vs stenting for high-risk heart attacks
This study compares two common treatments (bypass surgery vs. stenting) for people having a high-risk heart attack that involves blockages in multiple arteries. It aims to find which approach leads to better long-term outcomes.
Novosibirsk, Novosibirsk OblAges 18 years+ - NCT06966687Enrolling by invitation
Ulinastatin and thymosin for immune support after aortic dissection surgery
This trial tests whether two anti-inflammatory drugs, ulinastatin and thymosin α1, can help protect your immune system and organs after emergency surgery for a torn aorta (aortic dissection). If you qualify and take part, you may receive these medications in addition to standard care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06862583Recruiting
Study of acute type A aortic dissection treatments
This trial is studying treatments for people with a sudden tear in the main artery from the heart (type A aortic dissection) or a similar condition. It aims to improve outcomes after this emergency.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06199401Recruiting
Testing a new surgery for type A aortic tear
This trial tests a new surgical method (XJ-Procedure) for people with an acute tear in the upper part of the main artery from the heart (type A aortic dissection). It may offer a safer option for those needing 'Sun's procedure' surgery.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT06492980Recruiting
Stent graft for acute type I aortic dissection repair
This trial tests a special stent graft for people with a sudden tear in the inner layer of the aorta (type I aortic dissection) that needs urgent repair. It aims to see if the device can help treat the condition safely.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 20–65 - NCT05346393Recruiting
TIPS procedure for kidney failure in people with cirrhosis
This trial studies whether a liver procedure called TIPS can help people with cirrhosis who develop sudden kidney failure (HRS-AKI). It aims to improve kidney function and overall outcomes, but participation depends on several safety checks.
AachenAges 18–80 - NCT07258290Recruiting
Freesolve Magnesium Scaffold for Heart Artery Blockages
This trial tests a new dissolvable magnesium scaffold to treat blockages in heart arteries. It is designed for people with stable heart pain or certain recent heart attacks, and it aims to open blocked arteries and then slowly dissolve over time.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–80 - NCT04416581RecruitingPhase 4
Compare two stomach-protecting medicines to prevent bleeding
This trial compares a potassium-competitive acid blocker to a proton pump inhibitor to help prevent stomach or intestinal bleeding in people at high risk who take blood-thinning medicines. It may help reduce dangerous GI bleeding while you stay on heart/stroke medicines.
AnyangAges 19 years+ - NCT05257629RecruitingPhase 3
Aggressive smoking quit program after heart problems
This trial tests whether a strong quit plan using varenicline (a quit pill) plus nicotine e-cigarettes, along with counseling, helps people stop smoking after a recent heart-related event. It’s aimed at people who want to quit and can safely stay involved for about a year.
New Westminster, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366452Recruiting
Early heart pump implant for shock after a heart attack

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute aortic syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 27 recruiting acute aortic syndrome studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute aortic syndrome trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute aortic syndrome trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
