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 - NCT04372563Recruiting
Check treatment for aortic enlargement with tricuspid valve
This trial studies how to treat an enlarged part of the ascending aorta in people who have a tricuspid aortic valve. It may help slow or manage the risk connected to aorta enlargement.
TomskAges 45–75 - NCT01654133Enrolling by invitation
Testing branched stent grafts’ effect on blood flow after aortic repair
This study evaluates how well branched stent grafts work after repairing certain large or fast-growing aortic aneurysms (bulges in the main artery). It also checks blood-flow and organ function—especially flow to organs—in the weeks and months after the procedure.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT00583817Enrolling by invitation
Endovascular repair for thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections
This study tests whether repairing an enlarged or tearing (dissection) thoracic aorta using a catheter-based procedure can be safer for people who are high-risk for open surgery. It uses specialized stent grafts placed through blood vessels to seal the problem and prevent complications.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03746964Recruiting
MRI study of the heart’s aorta before planned surgery
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure how the ascending aorta (a large blood vessel) moves and behaves before planned surgery. It may help doctors better understand the mechanics of an aortic aneurysm and improve future surgical planning.
DijonAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07386028Recruiting
Large chest cut vs small chest cut for aorta repair
This trial compares two surgical approaches for repairing an enlarged ascending aorta: the standard large chest incision and a smaller incision through the breastbone. It aims to see if the smaller cut leads to faster recovery.
TomskAges 18–80 - NCT05479305Recruiting
Stent placement for thoracic aorta problems in urgent high-risk patients
This trial studies a new type of stent graft placed in the chest aorta (from the aortic arch into the descending part) to treat aneurysms or dissections in people who are too high-risk for open surgery. It may help by offering a faster, less invasive repair when waiting for a custom stent would be unsafe.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ascending aorta aneurysm?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 8 recruiting ascending aorta aneurysm 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 ascending aorta aneurysm 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 ascending aorta aneurysm 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.
