Checks safety of a stent used in complex heart artery disease
This study looks at how safe and effective a specific stent (SUPRAFLEX CRUZ) is when used in real-world care for people with heart artery blockages in more than one artery. Some participants will also be selected if their heart pumping strength is reduced.

This study compares people with very severe coronary artery disease to those without significant disease, using heart imaging data. It aims to understand what differs between extreme cases and how that information could guide future care.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT05799092Recruiting
Invasive vs non-invasive test for less-severe blocked heart arteries
This study compares two approaches to evaluating and treating people with symptoms of blocked heart arteries that are not “high-risk.” It may help doctors choose the safest, most effective next step for you by comparing invasive testing versus non-invasive evaluation.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT05831085Recruiting
Compare procedures to improve heart blood flow in diabetes
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—stent placement (PCI) versus bypass surgery (CABG)—in people with diabetes and significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease. It looks at outcomes using both standard heart tests and additional imaging/functional measurements to guide the best revascularization strategy.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 20 years+ - NCT05860400Recruiting
Testing add-on treatment to calm artery inflammation after heart procedures
This study looks at whether a comprehensive add-on treatment—starting with immune medicine and then a heart procedure when needed—can improve outcomes for people whose coronary artery disease is getting worse quickly. It focuses on cases where inflammation is likely driving new artery blockages or worsening chest pain.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06007248Recruiting
Study of inflammation-related coronary artery disease
This study compares two types of coronary artery disease: one linked to inflammation (IR-CAD) and the standard type (AS-CAD). If you have had a heart procedure and were recently hospitalized for worsening chest pain, this study may help doctors understand your condition better.

Complex and calcified coronary artery disease: a registry study
This study watches how people with complex or calcified heart artery disease are treated (with stents or bypass surgery) and how they do over time. It aims to learn which treatments work best for tough blockages.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT06095765RecruitingPhase 3
Colchicine for heart disease after stent placement
This trial tests if colchicine, a common anti-inflammatory medicine, can help prevent future heart problems in people who have coronary artery disease and recently had a stent placed. It's for adults with at least one extra risk factor like diabetes, smoking, or high blood pressure.
AalstAges 45 years+ - NCT06143332Recruiting
Aerobic exercise after a heart attack: which type works best?
This study compares two types of aerobic exercise (steady vs. interval) to see which one improves heart health more for people who have recently had a heart attack or procedure. If you've completed a stress test and been cleared for exercise, you may be able to join.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06179212Recruiting
Comparing exercise tests for men and women with heart disease
This study compares two different exercise test methods to see which works better for men and women with heart disease. The goal is to find a test that can help doctors design better exercise programs for you.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06182683Recruiting
OCT-Guided vs. FFR-Guided Stent Placement in Heart Disease
This trial compares two imaging and pressure tests used during stent placement to see which helps improve blood flow better in people with chest pain or a recent heart attack.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06185530Recruiting
Comparing stress echo vs CT scan for chest pain
This trial compares two heart imaging tests (stress echo with ultrasound of the neck, and a CT scan) to see which one better helps guide treatment for people with chest pain that might be from heart disease. If you have chest pain that is typical for heart disease, you may be able to join.
Harrow, MiddxAges 18 years+ - NCT06228456RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose ticagrelor vs clopidogrel for stable heart patients after stent
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the blood thinner ticagrelor works better than clopidogrel in people with stable coronary artery disease who are getting a planned stent. It aims to find which drug is safer and more effective for preventing future heart problems.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06250790Recruiting
Heart Artery Check for Leg Artery Disease Patients
This trial uses a special CT scan (coronary CTA with HeartFlow analysis) to look for hidden blockages in the heart arteries of people who recently had a leg artery procedure. It may help detect heart problems early so they can be treated.
RigaAges 50 years+ - NCT06327984Recruiting
Sex hormones and inflammation in heart disease
This study looks at how sex hormones and inflammation affect chest pain and heart disease. It aims to improve care for people with coronary artery disease.
LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT06393478Recruiting
Southeastern Europe Microcirculation Registry
This study is collecting information about how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart work in people with chest pain. It helps doctors learn more about microcirculation problems and may lead to better treatments.
RijekaAges 18 years+ - NCT06399692RecruitingPhase 3
Heart treatment study for women with blocked arteries
This trial is comparing two common heart procedures—bypass surgery (CABG) and stents (PCI)—to see which works better for women with blockages in multiple heart arteries. It aims to find the best treatment for women, who are often underrepresented in heart research.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06399705RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing bypass surgery vs stenting for minority heart patients
This trial compares two common heart procedures—bypass surgery and stenting—for people with multiple blocked arteries. It focuses on minority groups to find out which treatment works best for them. You will be asked to fill out quality-of-life questionnaires for up to 10 years.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06410690Recruiting
AI tool to predict high-risk coronary plaques from heart scans
This trial uses an artificial intelligence (AI) tool to analyze heart CT scans (CCTA) and identify dangerous plaque buildup that could lead to a heart attack. It aims to see if AI can better predict high-risk plaques in people with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 189 recruiting coronary arterial disease (cad) 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 coronary arterial disease (cad) 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 coronary arterial disease (cad) trial?
