This study tests the safety of a new blood thinner for people with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who need long-term stroke prevention. If you qualify, the study will compare this medication to standard anticoagulation therapy.
Cutler Bay, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07430956RecruitingPhase 3
Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation without standard blood thinners
This trial tests a new medication to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who cannot safely take standard blood thinners. The drug works by blocking a different clotting factor, which may lower bleeding risks.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05712200RecruitingPhase 3
Abelacimab for atrial fibrillation when blood thinners aren’t suitable
This Phase 3 study tests whether abelacimab can prevent stroke and other blood-clot problems in people with atrial fibrillation (or atrial flutter) who cannot safely take usual mouth blood thinners. It also looks at safety, especially bleeding risk.
Altamonte Springs, FloridaAges 65 years+ - NCT06763549Enrolling by invitation
AI-powered wearable patch for heart and lung monitoring
This study tests an AI-powered wearable patch (the COR ECG) to see if it can better track heart and lung health. It may help doctors find problems earlier without needing bulky equipment.
Melbourne, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05963698Recruiting
Closing off a heart pouch to prevent stroke
This study tests a procedure that seals off the left atrial appendage (a small heart pouch) to help prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation. You may be considered if your stroke risk is high and you are already on blood-thinner medicine.
Atlantis, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05826665Recruiting
Study of heart rhythm mapping during AF ablation
This is an observational study that looks at how a special heart mapping system may affect the procedure and outcomes for people having ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help doctors better understand what works best and how procedures turn out.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07671677Recruiting

What taking part in a atrial fibrillation 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.
