Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT04884802Recruiting
GUARDIAN Trial for safer blood pressure during major surgery
This trial studies a way of managing blood pressure during major surgery to help reduce complications. It is for older adults and others at higher risk who will be closely monitored in the hospital.
Wake Forest, North CarolinaAges 45 years+ - NCT06742723RecruitingPhase 3
Study of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin for kidney disease and high blood pressure
This trial tests if combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin helps protect kidney function and reduce heart risks in people with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure. It's for adults who are already taking standard blood pressure medications.
Greenville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06059638Recruiting
Pacemaker pacing for blood pressure control
This study tests whether adjusting the timing of a pacemaker can help lower blood pressure in people who already have or need a pacemaker. It could be an option for those whose blood pressure is not well controlled with medication.
Asheville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07064473RecruitingPhase 3
Testing vicadrostat plus empagliflozin for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease
This study tests a new pill called vicadrostat taken with another medicine (empagliflozin) to see if it helps people with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. It may reduce the risk of heart problems, but you must not have had heart failure or use certain other heart medications.
Cary, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04026776RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study hormones and salt sensitivity in adults born preterm
This early-phase study looks at natural body chemicals (uric acid and klotho) and how sensitive your blood pressure may be to salt. It may help researchers understand long-term health risks in people born very early.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 22–33 - NCT07221045Recruiting
Food as medicine for food-insecure families in rural North Carolina
This study tests whether providing fresh produce boxes and nutrition classes helps families in rural North Carolina who struggle with food access. If you are a parent or caregiver of an 8–14-year-old and live in a participating county, you may qualify.
Raleigh, North CarolinaAges 8–64 - NCT04752293Recruiting
Study of a kidney blood-pressure system in kids
This study looks at how a kidney-related blood-pressure system works in children and teenagers, comparing those with newly diagnosed primary (no known cause) high blood pressure to those with normal blood pressure. It may help doctors better understand childhood blood-pressure changes and guide future care.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 7–18 - NCT05397951Recruiting
Study to check how well wearable bioelectronic sensors work
This trial tests and “validates” how well wearable sensors work on the skin in healthy adults. It may help researchers build safer, more reliable wearables—but you would need healthy skin and the ability to do some moderate exercise during the study.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT05760898Recruiting
Helping control blood pressure in people with rheumatoid arthritis
This study aims to improve blood pressure control in adults who have both uncontrolled high blood pressure and rheumatoid arthritis. It may help by testing ways to better coordinate care between primary care and rheumatology.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06837181Recruiting
Understanding diabetes complications in cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how long-term diabetes affects people with cystic fibrosis. It helps researchers understand complications and improve care.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 12 years+ - NCT07222917RecruitingPhase 2
Dapagliflozin with baxdrostat for kidney disease and high blood pressure
This trial tests if adding dapagliflozin to baxdrostat (a new blood pressure drug) reduces protein in urine better than baxdrostat alone in people with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure. It aims to find a more effective way to protect kidney health.
Jacksonville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07356518Recruiting
Telehealth and Remote Blood Pressure for Pregnancy
This study tests if using telehealth and remote blood pressure monitoring can help manage high blood pressure during pregnancy. It may be a good fit if you already had high blood pressure before pregnancy and want to monitor it from home.

What taking part in a blood pressure 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.
