- NCT05072483Recruiting
Study of CADASIL’s natural course using blood tests and MRI
This study follows people with CADASIL (a genetic brain blood-vessel condition) to learn how it progresses over time. It uses blood and possibly tissue samples and brain MRI scans to better understand changes in the brain.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT06813911RecruitingPhase 3
Testing pelacarsen for high Lp(a) in heart disease patients
This trial tests a new medicine called pelacarsen for people with very high Lp(a) (a type of cholesterol) and existing heart or blood vessel disease. It aims to see if adding pelacarsen to your current cholesterol treatment can lower your Lp(a) levels further.
Bowie, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06875973RecruitingPhase 3
Pelacarsen long-term extension study
This trial is for people who have already finished taking pelacarsen in a previous study. It offers continued access to the drug and checks long-term safety.

Community health worker help for heart rehab after a heart event
This trial tests whether a community health worker (a trained person from your community) can help people with low income join and stick with a heart rehab program after a heart event. The goal is to make heart recovery easier and more accessible.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT07000357RecruitingPhase 3
Study of AZD0780 to reduce heart attack and stroke risk
This trial tests a new medication, AZD0780, to see if it helps prevent major cardiovascular events like heart attacks or strokes in people who already have heart or blood vessel disease, or are at high risk for a first event. It might be a good fit if your cholesterol isn't well-controlled despite current treatments.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01927783Recruiting
Community weight loss program for people in Washington area
This study tests a community-based behavioral weight loss program. It may help participants learn practical habits for healthier weight by working with people in local faith communities.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 19–85 - NCT01621594Recruiting
Testing new radiation methods for heart CT images
This trial studies newer ways to take heart and blood vessel CT scans while using radiation more carefully. It may help improve image quality for people needing coronary CT angiography.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05390892RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing kidney and heart damage in type 2 diabetes
This study tests whether diabetes medicines can help prevent worsening heart and kidney problems in people with type 2 diabetes. You’ll be assigned by chance to one of these medicine types, and your other care will be adjusted for safety.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 40–80 - NCT02397668Recruiting
New tricuspid valve replacement for leaky or absent valve
This study tests a special replacement valve (an “ECM valve”) for people whose tricuspid valve is leaky or missing and needs surgery. It may help restore blood flow on the right side of the heart and is designed for certain children born with congenital heart problems.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 1–85 - 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01524276Recruiting

What taking part in a cardiovascular diseases 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.

Common questions
- Are there cardiovascular diseases clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 35 recruiting cardiovascular diseases studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a cardiovascular diseases study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a cardiovascular diseases trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
