Recruiting studies in California
- NCT07078383Recruiting
Study of the Rapidlink device for aorta repair
This trial tests a device called Rapidlink that helps repair blood vessels branching off the aorta during open heart surgery. It may be an option if you need open surgery to fix your thoracic aorta.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03536312Recruiting
Surgery versus monitoring for enlarged ascending aorta
This trial compares two ways to treat an enlarged (bigger) ascending aorta: having surgery now versus careful imaging follow-up (surveillance). It may help you and your care team decide which approach lowers the risk of serious problems for aneurysms in a specific size range.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–79 - NCT04246463Recruiting
Aortic stent graft patient registry to track outcomes
This study is a registry that follows people who receive an aortic endovascular (through-the-blood-vessel) stent graft. It helps doctors understand how well these grafts work and what outcomes happen over time.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04524247Recruiting
Testing a custom stent graft for frail aortic aneurysms
This study looks at a specialized, customized stent graft to treat certain aneurysms (bulges) of the aorta in people who may be considered frail. It’s meant to see how well the device works and how safely it can be used in patients who fit specific aneurysm patterns.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04875429Recruiting
Study of a fenestrated aortic graft for certain aneurysms
This study checks how well a specially designed aortic graft (a fenestrated device) works for people with specific types of enlarged or fast-growing aortic aneurysms. It may help confirm whether the device is safe and effective for preventing aneurysm problems.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05339061Recruiting
Modified stent graft for complex abdominal aortic aneurysms
This study tests a specially customized endovascular (through blood vessels) repair for certain large or fast-growing aneurysms near the kidney area or chest-to-abdomen area. It may help people who are higher risk for open surgery and whose anatomy fits the device.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05378347Recruiting
Compare two aortic stent graft types for AAA
This study compares two commercially used stent graft devices to treat an enlarged abdominal aorta (AAA). It aims to see which device works better and is safer over follow-up visits.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 20 years+ - NCT06526676Recruiting
Custom stent grafts for aortic aneurysms in high-risk patients
This study tests custom-fitted stent grafts for patients with aortic aneurysms who are not good candidates for open surgery or standard stent grafts. The grafts are modified by the surgeon during the procedure to match your specific anatomy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00483249Recruiting
Stent treatment for large abdominal aortic aneurysms
This trial studies a less invasive stent procedure that blocks blood flow into certain large aneurysms in the chest-to-abdomen or upper abdomen area. It may help prevent aneurysm growth and rupture while avoiding the risks of open surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04005976Recruiting
Genetic study for inherited aortic disease
This trial is for people with inherited (family-run) aortic enlargement or aneurysm caused by a specific DNA gene change. It uses genetic information to guide more precise care, which may help tailor monitoring and treatment for you and your family.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07089576Recruiting
Study of the Arcevo LSA device for aortic arch repair
This trial tests a new device called Arcevo LSA to treat certain types of aortic arch problems, like dissections (tears) or aneurysms (bulges). It is for people who need open surgery, and the device helps fix the left subclavian artery area.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06658730Recruiting
A study to check long-term safety of a Gore thoracic stent graft
This registry study tracks patients who have or will receive a Gore thoracic stent graft to see how well the device performs over time. It helps doctors understand the device's long-term benefits and any possible complications.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05800743Enrolling by invitation
Stent grafts for high-risk ascending aorta problems
This study tests a new stent graft placed through the groin/back to treat problems in the ascending aorta (and sometimes the arch), usually when open-heart surgery is considered too risky. Doctors will check whether the device is safe and works well over time, including imaging and a long follow-up.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07166133Recruiting
GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis for Zone 0/1 Study
This study is checking how well the GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis works for people who need a stent graft in a specific part of the aorta (Zone 0 or 1). It may help if you have an aneurysm or other condition requiring treatment in that area.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04503395Recruiting
Testing two new ways to repair an abdominal aneurysm
This trial compares two procedures (ESAR and FEVAR) to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm in people whose anatomy makes the usual repair hard. It may help find a safer, more durable option for patients with challenging aortic neck features.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05064540Recruiting
Testing a new EVAR approach for unruptured AAA
This trial studies an endovascular (through blood vessels) repair technique for an unruptured enlarged artery in the belly called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It may help doctors compare outcomes using a randomized approach and structured follow-up.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT06218875Recruiting
Registry for GORE EXCLUDER aneurysm treatment
This registry tracks how well the GORE EXCLUDER and Iliac Branch devices work for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms over time. It's a way to gather real-world data to help doctors and patients make better treatment decisions.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01524276Recruiting
Registry to track outcomes of Medtronic medical devices
This is a follow-up registry that collects information from people who have (or will receive) an eligible Medtronic device. It helps the company and doctors better understand how the device works in real-world use.

What taking part in a aortic aneurysm study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there aortic aneurysm clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 18 recruiting aortic aneurysm studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a aortic aneurysm study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a aortic aneurysm trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
