Durham, North CarolinaAges 1.5 years–16 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.
Durham, North CarolinaAges birth–16 years - 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.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–100 - NCT04141605Enrolling by invitation
Heart transplant candidates matched for better heart preservation

Durham, North CarolinaAges Up to 1.3 years - NCT02744677Recruiting
Pulmonary valve procedure to improve blood flow issues
This trial studies a transcatheter pulmonary valve (a valve placed through a catheter) in people whose right-sided outflow tract valve/conduit is not working well. It aims to improve blood flow and reduce pressure problems, while checking safety and results after the procedure.
Durham, North CarolinaAges Any age - 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07608432RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a New DMD Treatment Given Every 4 Weeks
This study tests whether a new medicine called zeleciment rostudirsen can help ambulatory (walking) males with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The medicine is given as an intravenous infusion (through a vein) every 4 weeks and works by helping the body produce a protective muscle protein.

What taking part in a congenital heart disease study involves

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
