We’re tracking 6 recruiting aortic dissection studies with a site in Virginia, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Virginia
- NCT04545502Recruiting
Study of aortic grafts and heart patches after aortic surgery
This study looks at how well certain aortic grafts and cardiovascular patches work after surgery. It may help by improving care for people who need these devices, and by collecting safety and outcome information over time.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06087029Recruiting
Improving outcomes in aortic dissection
This study tests a minimally invasive procedure called TEVAR to repair a type B aortic dissection (a tear in the wall of the main artery from your heart). It may help prevent further damage and improve recovery.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 21 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.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges Any age - 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.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07438327Recruiting
AI study to improve heart and aorta CT analysis
This trial uses artificial intelligence to better analyze CT scans of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from your heart. If your CT scan shows the aorta is partly cut off or missing in the images, the AI will help measure the parts that are fully visible.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 22 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.

What taking part in a aortic dissection 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 dissection clinical trials in Virginia?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting aortic dissection studies with a site in Virginia, 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 dissection study in Virginia?
- 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 Virginia to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Virginia, 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 dissection 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.
