Recruiting studies
- NCT06393894Recruiting
Latvian Early Atherosclerosis Registry Study
This study is gathering information from people with early heart artery blockages (occurring before age 55 for men or 65 for women) who need or have had treatment like stents or bypass. It helps doctors understand long-term outcomes.
RigaAges 18–65 - NCT05660798Recruiting
Switching from cigarettes to heat-not-burn to protect heart arteries
This study looks at whether switching from regular cigarettes to a tobacco heating product slows buildup of plaque in the heart arteries. You’d be guided through smoking change and monitored using heart scans, to see if artery plaque stays the same or improves.
WarsawAges 18–75 - NCT07625488Enrolling by invitation
Heart Disease Risk Follow-up Study for Former Athletes
This study follows up with people who participated in a heart-health study between 2012 and 2014. Researchers will use heart imaging and exercise tests to check your cardiovascular health and learn more about heart disease risk in athletes.
NijmegenAges 45 years+ - NCT07657676RecruitingPhase 4
Study of mazdutide for heart artery plaque in people who are overweight
This study tests whether mazdutide, a medicine that may help with weight and blood sugar, can reduce plaque buildup in the heart's arteries. It is for people who are overweight or obese and have some narrowing in their heart arteries but do not need immediate procedures like stents.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06738381Recruiting
Digital prevention program after heart attack or stroke
This trial tests a digital program (using a smartphone or tablet) to help prevent another heart attack or stroke. It is for people who have already had a heart-related event or have known artery plaque buildup.
Drammen, BuskerudAges 18 years+ - NCT06960902Recruiting
Study of Heart Artery Plaque in Familial Hypercholesterolemia
This study uses a heart CT scan to look for plaque buildup in the arteries of people with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic high-cholesterol condition). It aims to understand why some people with FH develop heart disease while others don't.
DijonAges 40 years+ - NCT06318767Recruiting
Foot Blood Flow Measurements to Predict Limb and Heart Events
This study measures how blood flows through your foot using ultrasound to see if it can predict serious problems with your leg or heart in people with severe circulation problems. The goal is to find a simple test that helps doctors decide the best treatment for you.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07614230RecruitingPhase 4
SGLT2 drugs and heart artery health in diabetes
This study tests whether a diabetes medication called SGLT2 inhibitors can slow the buildup of plaque in heart arteries. Researchers will use special CT scans to track changes in your coronary arteries over time.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–78 - NCT07581808RecruitingPhase 4
Two cholesterol drugs for heart disease prevention
This study tests two newer cholesterol-lowering medications (inclisiran and alirocumab) together in people who've had heart problems or strokes and cannot tolerate standard cholesterol drugs. The goal is to see if this combination safely lowers cholesterol further and reduces future cardiovascular events.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07334834Recruiting
Better cholesterol management for people with artery disease
This study tests a team-based approach to help people with artery disease (like heart attacks or leg blockages) get their cholesterol to a healthier level. If your LDL is above 70, you may benefit from extra support to manage your medications.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07000357RecruitingPhase 3
Study of AZD0780 to reduce heart attack and stroke risk
This trial tests a new medication, AZD0780, to see if it helps prevent major cardiovascular events like heart attacks or strokes in people who already have heart or blood vessel disease, or are at high risk for a first event. It might be a good fit if your cholesterol isn't well-controlled despite current treatments.
Athens, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06203860Recruiting
Heart-focused clinic for diabetes and heart disease
This study is testing whether a special heart-focused clinic can help people with type 2 diabetes who also have heart or blood vessel problems. If you have both diabetes and a heart condition like prior heart attack, stroke, heart failure, or hard-to-control high blood pressure, this program may support your health.
Svendborg, Region SyddanmarkAges 19 years+ - NCT06422741Recruiting
Grape seed extract for cholesterol in night shift workers
This study tests whether a grape seed extract supplement can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol in people who work rotating night shifts. It is looking for healthy adults with moderately high cholesterol who are not taking cholesterol medicine.
Reus, TarragonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04505865Recruiting
Mindfulness program to reduce inflammation in heart disease
This trial studies whether a mindfulness (stress-reducing) program can lower “vascular inflammation” (inflammation in blood vessel walls) in people with stable coronary disease. It may help by improving stress and related inflammation markers while you stay on your usual heart medicines.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 45–65 - NCT02582021Recruiting
Study of treatments and imaging in women with angina or HFpEF
This trial studies how heart disease affects the heart using heart imaging, and looks at people with chest pain/angina or heart failure with preserved pumping strength (HFpEF). It may help doctors better understand what’s driving symptoms and how best to evaluate these conditions.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02915198RecruitingPhase 4
Metformin for prediabetes to reduce heart and blood-vessel events
This trial tests whether taking metformin in people with prediabetes can lower the chance of future heart attack, stroke, or other blood-vessel problems. You may be a good fit if you have prediabetes plus existing cardiovascular disease or significant blood-vessel disease.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06587204Recruiting
Digital study for heart health in Black and Hispanic adults
This study uses a smartphone app to help Black and non-White Hispanic adults with heart or blood sugar conditions. It aims to make research easier to join from home and understand why some groups don't participate.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT01399385Recruiting
New heart imaging to detect heart disease
This study tests new imaging techniques, like MRI and CT scans, to better see heart and blood vessel problems. It may help doctors find heart disease earlier and guide treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT04375280Recruiting
Study of mobility problems in people with long-term illnesses
This study observes how people with chronic health conditions affect their ability to move and do everyday activities. It may help researchers better understand mobility limits and what factors influence them.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18–90 - NCT04864171Recruiting
Registry to study heart vessel imaging with a special light test
This registry collects images of coronary artery blockages during a routine heart procedure. It uses a special light-based imaging scan to help researchers understand how well the test shows artery lesions.
MiyazakiAges 20–95 - NCT07719894RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing heart problems in type 2 diabetes with cilostazol and aspirin
This trial tests whether taking cilostazol and aspirin together can help prevent heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events in people with type 2 diabetes who have early signs of artery disease or metabolic syndrome. It aims to see if this combination is more effective than aspirin alone.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 69 recruiting atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease 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 atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease 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 atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease 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.
