Recruiting studies
- NCT04599192Enrolling by invitation
Test heart procedure planning in women using pressure measurements
This trial compares two strategies for deciding which heart blockages to treat, using special pressure and blood-flow measurements during a heart procedure. It may help doctors choose more accurate treatment by tailoring the plan to each person’s heart blood flow.

Study of a blood marker for heart damage from high blood pressure
This trial looks at a substance in your blood called miR-455-5p to see if it can help doctors understand heart changes caused by high blood pressure. It involves people who have had high blood pressure for over a year and may have some heart symptoms.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06745011Enrolling by invitation
Parkinson's signs in people with nerve damage
This study looks for early signs of Parkinson's disease in people who have nerve damage in their hands and feet (polyneuropathy) with no known cause, along with drops in blood pressure when standing up. It aims to understand if these early symptoms might predict future Parkinson's.
Aarhus, JutlandAges 18–85 - NCT06801743Recruiting
When is a cardiac MRI helpful for extra heartbeats?
This study looks at when a cardiac MRI is most useful for people with extra heartbeats called premature ventricular complexes. It helps doctors understand if the MRI gives them important information beyond standard heart tests.

Testing heart-protection medicine during breast cancer treatment
This trial tests sacubitril/valsartan to help prevent heart weakness (cardiotoxicity) caused by breast cancer treatments like anthracyclines and/or anti-HER2 drugs. If you qualify, you may be offered this heart-protection medicine while your cancer is treated.
Opole, Opole VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06162247Recruiting
Registry study for heart patients in intensive care
This study tracks patients with sudden heart problems admitted to a special heart intensive care unit. It helps doctors learn more about these conditions to improve future care.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT07028593RecruitingPhase 4
Ciprofol for heart protection during lung surgery
This trial tests if a new sedative drug, Ciprofol, can reduce heart damage after non-cardiac surgery compared to standard care. It is for people aged 45–80 having planned lung surgery (like lobe removal or wedge resection) who will stay in the hospital for at least 3 days after the procedure.
WuhanAges 40–80 - NCT07048808RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for chronic chest pain
This trial tests a new gene therapy (XC001) delivered through a thin tube into your heart's blood vessels. It aims to grow new blood vessels to relieve chest pain in people with chronic angina who have no other treatment options.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–85 - NCT07174206Recruiting
Smartwatch monitoring for heart patients
This trial tests a smartwatch tool to track heart rhythm and detect problems in people with heart disease. It may help find irregular heartbeats early during routine checkups.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 22 years+ - NCT07314268Recruiting
Study of tiny blood particles in heart amyloidosis
This study looks at tiny particles called extracellular vesicles in the blood of people with a specific type of heart amyloidosis. It aims to find better ways to track the disease and predict outcomes.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT06080074RecruitingPhase 2
Emergency heart-lung machine study for children with severe heart failure
This study tests a specific heart-lung machine called Cardiohelp to help children with severe heart failure. It looks at how well the machine works and whether a blood thinner (either heparin or bivalirudin) is safer and more effective.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges birth–16 years - NCT07695363Recruiting
Restrictive fluids in liver transplant
This trial tests if giving less fluid during liver transplant surgery helps recovery. It is for adults with end-stage liver disease receiving a transplant.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06908759Recruiting
Fall risk in older adults after heart rehab
This study looks at whether a special cardiac rehab program can help older adults who recently had a heart event improve their balance and reduce their risk of falling. It's designed for people age 65 and older who are now stable enough to begin rehab.
Rome, RMAges 65 years+ - NCT06542575Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiac disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 319 recruiting cardiac 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 cardiac 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 cardiac 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.
