- NCT07632443Recruiting
Testing temporary dental crowns and bridges made of PMMA

Shockwave balloon for hard heart blockages trial
This trial tests a new balloon catheter that uses sound waves to break up hard calcium blockages in heart arteries. It may be an option for people with stable chest pain or who have recovered from a recent heart attack, and who have a single, tough blockage.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07363161Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon vs. stent for high-risk heart disease
This trial compares two treatments for people with complex coronary artery disease who have high-risk conditions or complicated blockages: a drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus a drug-eluting stent (DES). Both are ways to open up narrowed arteries and keep them open without surgery.
HomburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05344612Recruiting
Testing CT scan first to guide treatment for chest pain
This trial studies whether doing a special heart scan (CTCA) right away can better guide treatment for people with chest pain who might have coronary artery disease. It compares this “scan-first” strategy to standard care to see which approach leads to better outcomes and fewer unnecessary procedures.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05963191Recruiting
Test camera bowel scan for early Lynch syndrome lesions
This study tests a special CAD-EYE system to help detect abnormal (potentially cancer-related) growths during colonoscopy in people with Lynch syndrome. It may improve how reliably clinicians find lesions early, when treatment can be easier.
ParisAges 18–90 - NCT06216821Recruiting
Personalized guide for timing blood-thinner reduction after a heart attack
This study tests whether a personalized score (OPT-CAD) can help decide the best time to stop or reduce blood-thinning medication in people who have had a heart attack and a stent placed. It aims to balance preventing future heart issues while lowering the risk of bleeding.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT07087431Recruiting
Genetic risk score for heart disease and health habits
This study looks at whether sharing a genetic risk score for heart disease can help people make heart-healthy changes. If you're not on cholesterol medication, you may be able to join.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30–75 - NCT07231835Recruiting
Coronary outcomes with drug-coated balloon treatment
This study tracks patients who receive a special balloon coated with medicine (paclitaxel) to open blocked heart arteries. It aims to understand how well this treatment works for various types of blockages.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07444931Recruiting
Predicting cardiac arrest risk in heart disease patients
This study looks at factors that may help predict sudden cardiac arrest in people with coronary artery disease. If you have a recent diagnosis of significant blockage or a heart attack, joining this trial could help improve risk assessment.
HaderaAges 18–75 - NCT07149610Recruiting
Connected care for type 2 diabetes self-management
This study tests a connected care program to help people with type 2 diabetes manage their condition better using a smartphone. It may help you if your blood sugar is not well controlled and you live in the Marche region of Italy.
Ancona, AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT07510438Recruiting
Pulse IVL treatment for hardened arteries in the heart
This trial tests a new device that uses sound waves to break up calcium deposits in heart arteries, making them easier to open. It may help people with coronary artery disease who have not had prior stents or recent heart attacks.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05698732Recruiting
Coroflex stent study for selected small heart artery blockages
This trial studies a new heart stent (called Coroflex ISAR NEO) for people who need a procedure to open a narrowed coronary artery. It may help improve long-term results for patients with certain small, short blockages who can safely take the required blood-thinning medicines.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT07753200RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two blood thinners for atrial fibrillation and heart disease
This study compares two blood-thinning medicines, edoxaban and apixaban, to see which one is better at preventing strokes and bleeding in people who have both atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease. If you're eligible, you may receive one of these standard treatments, and the trial could help find the safer option.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07646444Recruiting
Study of OPN Balloon for Opening Hardened Heart Vessel Blockages
This is a follow-up study of patients who have already had a heart procedure using a special balloon (OPN balloon) to open calcified (hardened) blockages in heart arteries. Researchers will review records to see how well this balloon works and how patients recover.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06916520RecruitingPhase 4
Reduced dose prasugrel alone after stent placement
This trial tests if a lower dose of prasugrel, taken alone (without aspirin), is safe and works well for people who have had a stent placed for chest pain or a heart attack. It might be an option for those who need to simplify their medication routine.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06794359Enrolling by invitation
Comparing minimally invasive vs. traditional bypass for multi-vessel heart disease
This study compares two types of heart bypass surgery for people with blockages in multiple heart arteries: a newer, less invasive technique (minimally invasive CABG) versus the traditional open-chest approach. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and outcomes.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT06442787Recruiting
New 3D Planning for Jaw Surgery
This study tests a new way to plan jaw surgery using 3D computer models, custom guides, and plates. It may help people with a certain type of jaw misalignment get more precise results from their surgery.
Istanbul, FatihAges 18–55 - NCT07159087Enrolling by invitation
New drug balloon for re-narrowed stents
This trial tests a new drug-coated balloon (Genoss SCB) versus an existing one (SeQuent Please NEO) for people whose heart stents have re-narrowed. It aims to see which balloon better keeps the artery open.
Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT07093788Recruiting
Comparing two ways to treat hard calcium in heart arteries
This trial tests two methods for breaking up heavy calcium buildup in heart arteries before placing a stent. It compares a specialized high-pressure balloon to a device that uses shockwaves.
Lianyungang, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07195149RecruitingPhase 3
Aspirin dose comparison after bypass surgery
This trial tests whether a lower dose of aspirin combined with another blood thinner (prasugrel) after bypass surgery is as safe and effective as a higher dose. It is for people with stable heart disease who are scheduled for bypass surgery and have not had a recent heart attack.
BialystokAges 18 years+ - NCT07172620Recruiting
Heart bypass surgery without clamping the aorta
This study tests a special technique for heart bypass surgery that avoids clamping the aorta. It may help people with hardened arteries in the aorta who need bypass surgery but are not good candidates for standard clamping.

Heart muscle coordination and microvessel function SPECT study
This study uses a special heart scan (SPECT) to look at how well the heart muscle is squeezing and how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart are working. It may help doctors understand why some people have chest pain even when their main arteries are not blocked.
TomskAges 18–75 - NCT07041359RecruitingPhase 4
Traditional Chinese medicine for elderly heart disease patients with ongoing symptoms
This trial tests whether traditional Chinese medicine can help elderly patients with coronary heart disease who still have chest pain or discomfort despite standard treatments. It focuses on those who cannot have or have not fully benefited from procedures like stents or bypass surgery.
