Studying stroke warning signs in young adults
This observational study follows people ages 18–50 who had a first TIA (“mini-stroke”) or an acute ischemic stroke to better understand what happens after the event. It may help improve future care by tracking symptoms, imaging findings, and recovery over time.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18–50 - NCT01372800Recruiting
Study blood adiponectin levels and stroke/heart risk
This study measures a blood marker called adiponectin and looks at how it relates to heart and stroke (cardiovascular and cerebrovascular) problems over time. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk, especially in Chinese participants.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–85 - NCT07324278Recruiting
Arm rehab with mirror exercises after stroke
This study tests a new kind of arm exercise that uses a mirror to help your brain recover movement after a stroke. It may help you improve arm function if you have some movement already.
Kaohsiung City, Yanchao DistrictAges 20–80 - NCT07516444Recruiting
Tricuspid valve replacement using a new catheter device
This trial tests a new device that replaces a leaky tricuspid valve (a heart valve) without open-heart surgery. If your tricuspid valve isn't working well and medicines haven't helped enough, this procedure might improve your heart function and symptoms.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06542432Enrolling by invitation
Genetic risk test for heart disease prevention
This trial uses a polygenic risk score to see if knowing your genetic risk for coronary artery disease can help prevent a first heart attack. If you have an intermediate 10-year risk and no prior heart events, you may be eligible.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 40–70 - NCT06288204Recruiting
Green Propolis and Royal Jelly for Kidney Health
This trial tests whether a supplement made from green propolis (a natural bee product) and royal jelly can help people with high blood pressure and chronic kidney disease. It aims to see if the supplement can improve kidney health and blood pressure control.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18–75 - NCT06041581Enrolling by invitation
Insomnia treatment study for heart health
This study tests whether treating insomnia can help lower your risk for heart disease. If you have trouble sleeping and certain heart risk factors, you may be able to join.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 40 years+ - NCT06981247Recruiting
Heart disease prevention for office workers
This study tests ways to help city bank employees in Karachi lower their risk of heart disease and stroke. It focuses on people who sit a lot at work and want to prevent heart problems.
Karachi, SindhAges 20–65 - NCT05765370Recruiting
LDL cholesterol study in people 75+ with heart or blood vessel disease
This trial studies how to lower “bad” cholesterol (LDL) in people age 75 and older who have already had heart, brain, or leg/blood-vessel problems from blocked arteries. The goal is to see if the approach helps prevent further cardiovascular events (like heart attack or stroke).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 75 years+ - NCT06526195Recruiting
A study of CardioMEMS and HeartMate 3 for advanced heart failure
This trial tests if a combination of a tiny lung-artery pressure sensor (CardioMEMS) and a mechanical heart pump (HeartMate 3) is safe and effective for people with advanced heart failure. If you qualify, you'll either get the heart pump plus standard medical therapy, or continue with standard therapy alone and have your pressure monitored remotely.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05943821RecruitingPhase 3
Allopurinol to lower heart and stroke risks in high-risk people
This trial studies whether allopurinol can reduce the chance of cardiovascular events like heart attack, stroke, or related problems in people who are at higher risk. It targets people with higher uric acid and other risk factors, to see if lowering uric acid helps protect the heart.
Poznan, WielkopolskaAges 40–70 - NCT07286578Recruiting
Using heart CT scans to guide treatment for blocked arteries
This trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT06494501RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing heart attacks in middle-aged adults with early plaque
This study tests whether starting cholesterol-lowering treatment early can prevent heart attacks in people aged 30-50 who already have early signs of artery plaque but no history of heart disease.
New York, New YorkAges 30–50 - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT07393412Recruiting
Heart and vessel disease study for Korean patients at Samsung Medical Center
This study looks at people who have visited Samsung Medical Center for heart or blood vessel problems. It aims to find what factors affect their health over time, which could help doctors predict and prevent future issues.
SeoulAges Any age - NCT04040777Recruiting
Cardiometabolic risk registry for adults
This study is a health registry that collects information about risk factors for heart and metabolic problems in adults. It may help doctors better understand who is at higher risk and guide future prevention strategies.
Pilar, Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT05908331Recruiting
Balloon treatment test for narrowed stents in heart arteries
This trial tests whether a special drug-coated balloon (“MagicTouch”) can treat re-narrowing inside a previously placed stent. It may help patients whose stent has become blocked again, by improving blood flow and reducing repeat narrowing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–110 - NCT06271590Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for small heart artery blockages
This trial tests a special balloon coated with a drug (sirolimus) to treat blockages in small heart arteries. If the balloon is successful, it may help keep the artery open without needing a permanent stent.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18–80 - NCT04927429Recruiting
MRI study to improve heart imaging
This trial helps develop and fine-tune MRI scans that look at the heart and blood vessels. It may help people with heart-related symptoms or conditions by improving how MRI images are created and interpreted.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–100 - NCT05553223Recruiting

This study tests whether “micro-doses” of physical activity (short, small amounts) can help people with COPD. It aims to see if these small activity bursts are safe and beneficial for people who have stable COPD.
Kelowna, British ColumbiaAges Any age - NCT06560983Recruiting
Blood sugar and stroke outcomes over one year
This study watches how blood sugar levels affect recovery and risks over one year in people who come to the ER with a stroke. It aims to help doctors better manage blood sugar during emergency stroke care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 80 recruiting cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases 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 cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases 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 cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases 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.
