SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT04713774Recruiting
Tracking bone and blood vessel changes after kidney transplant
This study follows people who recently received a kidney transplant to see how bone strength and blood-vessel calcifications change over time. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor after transplant and how best to protect bone and heart health.
LiègeAges 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+ - NCT07511283Recruiting
Calciphylaxis study in kidney disease patients
This study looks at a rare condition called calciphylaxis (hardening of small blood vessels) that can happen in people with chronic kidney disease. It aims to learn more about what causes it and how to help those affected.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT07491107Recruiting
Registry of a new drug-eluting stent for complex coronary lesions
This study tracks how well a new drug-eluting stent (a small mesh tube that keeps arteries open and releases medicine to prevent re-narrowing) performs in people with complex coronary artery disease. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective in real-world patients with long, calcified, or multiple blocked arteries.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT06688448Recruiting
New biologic aortic valve replacement study
This study is testing a new generation of biologic (tissue) replacement valves for the aortic valve in adults aged 18 to 65. It aims to see how well these newer devices work compared to standard options.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–65 - NCT05845424RecruitingPhase 4
High-intensity cholesterol pills for people with silent calcium
This trial studies whether high-intensity statin plus ezetimibe can improve heart health in people who do not have symptoms but have calcium buildup in their heart arteries. It may help lower cholesterol and reduce future heart risks for the right participants.
SeoulAges 40 years+ - NCT07400406Recruiting
A new MRI test to see calcified heart arteries
This trial tests a special MRI using a contrast agent called ferumoxytol to better see calcium buildup in heart arteries. It may help people who need a coronary angiogram and have some calcium visible on a prior CT scan.
