Recruiting studies
- NCT06670768Recruiting
Comparing two heart imaging tests for blocked arteries
This trial compares two heart imaging tests (SPECT and coronary CTA) to see if a newer method gives a clearer picture of blood flow. If you have been referred for one of these tests, you may be able to help by also having the other test done at no extra risk.
Budapest, BudapestAges 18 years+ - NCT06793787Recruiting
AI and advanced imaging to guide treatment of borderline heart blockages
This study uses advanced CT scans and a special camera (OCT) to look at borderline blockages in heart arteries more closely. It aims to see if artificial intelligence can help decide which blockages need a stent and which can be treated with medicine alone.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07254572RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing diabetes drugs for heart health in prediabetes
This trial tests whether certain diabetes medications can help prevent worsening of heart disease in people who have prediabetes (higher than normal blood sugar, but not yet diabetes). It may be a good fit if you have known coronary artery disease and prediabetes.
WarsawAges 18–80 - NCT03378934RecruitingPhase 4
Berberine after stent placement to reduce blood-platelet effects
This trial studies whether berberine changes how strongly your platelets “stick together” after a coronary stent. It may help reduce risk related to clotting while you continue standard heart medicines (aspirin and clopidogrel).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06931574Recruiting
Comparing two stent methods for complex heart branch blockages
This trial compares two ways of placing stents in complex blockages in heart artery branches (smaller arteries branching off main ones). It aims to see which technique works better for this specific type of blockage.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06793774Recruiting
Using CT scans and AI to evaluate heart artery risk
This study uses a CT scan of your heart (CCTA) and advanced computer analysis to see how well it can predict heart risks compared to detailed inside-look tests (IVUS, OCT, NIRS). If you have chest pain and have had certain heart scans, this trial may help doctors understand your condition better.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06597851Recruiting
Insulin resistance and heart artery health: a study for chest pain patients
This study looks at how insulin resistance affects tiny heart arteries in people who have chest pain and signs of heart stress on tests, but do not have major blockages in their heart arteries. It aims to understand why some people have heart symptoms even when their main arteries appear clear.
Verona, VRAges 18 years+ - NCT05650411Recruiting
Test new drug-eluting stent with less blood thinner
This study compares a new type of “drug-eluting” stent (a tiny scaffold that slowly releases medicine) and a single blood-thinner plan versus the usual two-drug blood thinner plan after stent placement in the left main coronary artery. It aims to see if the simpler plan can work while keeping the stent safe.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT06603363Recruiting
Statin effects on heart artery plaques seen on CT scans
This trial studies how short-term statin therapy changes plaque buildup in heart arteries. It uses CT scans to see if statins can make plaques more stable and reduce heart risks.
Budapest, BudapestAges 45–75 - NCT07711951Recruiting
Bypass surgery times and ICU stay length
This study looks at how long people stay in the intensive care unit after planned coronary artery bypass surgery. It checks if the time spent on the heart-lung machine or with the aorta clamped affects recovery.
Diyarbakır, Outside of the USAges 18 years+ - NCT07000045Recruiting
Shock wave vs drill for hard calcium in heart arteries
This study tests a new way to break up hard calcium deposits in heart arteries using shock waves (lithotripsy), with or without a special drill (rotational atherectomy), before placing a stent. It may help people with severely calcified blockages that are hard to treat with standard methods.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07277686Recruiting
AI face scan for hidden heart disease in high-risk people
This trial tests whether an AI system can detect signs of coronary artery disease (blockages in heart arteries) by analyzing a photo of your face. It may help identify people in the community who need further heart testing.
Zhoukou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT05845489RecruitingPhase 4
Clopidogrel to prevent heart problems from minor artery plaque
This trial tests whether clopidogrel (a blood-thinning medicine) can prevent future heart attacks or strokes in people who have early, “subclinical” plaque in their heart arteries. You may be considered if scans show plaque but not major artery blockage that needs a procedure.
Seoul, OtherAges 40 years+ - NCT07612774RecruitingPhase 4
Early cholesterol-lowering drug after heart attack study
This study tests whether starting evolocumab (a cholesterol-lowering injection) soon after a heart attack helps prevent future heart problems. You'll receive the study drug or placebo for 52 weeks while your heart is monitored with imaging scans.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 40–75 - NCT06101862Recruiting
CT scan vs. angiogram for certain heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to look at heart arteries: a CT scan (noninvasive) versus a traditional angiogram (a tube put into an artery). The goal is to see which is better for people having a certain type of heart attack.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges Any age - NCT07329699Recruiting
AI-Guided Heart Artery Pressure Test vs Standard Test
This study compares a new artificial intelligence (AI) method to measure blood flow in your heart arteries (called Medipixel FFR) with the standard invasive method. If you are scheduled for a heart angiogram or stenting and have a moderate blockage (40-90% narrowing) that doctors are unsure about, this AI tool may help decide the best treatment for you.
Seoul, Select StateAges 19 years+ - NCT06541132Recruiting
Liver fat and heart artery narrowing study
This study looks at whether the amount of fat in your liver, seen on an ultrasound, is linked to the severity of narrowing in your heart arteries. If you had a heart catheterization (angiography) and an abdominal ultrasound, your data may help researchers understand this connection.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT05133843Recruiting
Test heart blood-flow measurements before and after TAVI
This study checks whether special heart tests can better understand “in-between” blocked heart arteries before and after TAVI (a valve replacement done through a catheter). It may help doctors choose the safest, most accurate treatment when coronary artery disease is unclear.
LeipzigAges 18 years+ - NCT06137521Recruiting
Heart artery blockage study
This study looks at people with a long-standing complete blockage in a heart artery. The goal is to understand risk factors and outcomes, which may help guide future treatments.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05841199Recruiting
Study heart blood flow during fast heart rates
This study measures how well blood flows through the heart when the heart rate is increased during a heart procedure. It may help doctors better understand coronary (heart artery) blood flow and how to guide treatment when you need angiography or angioplasty.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06074549Recruiting
DynamX bioadaptor heart artery trial
This trial studies a new type of device called the DynamX Bioadaptor, which is placed inside a blocked heart artery to help it heal and flex naturally. It is designed for people who need a stent (a tiny tube to open a blocked artery) and may offer a more adaptive option than traditional stents.
PöltenAges 18 years+ - NCT04889053Recruiting
CT heart scan study in adults with type 2 diabetes
This trial uses a low-dose CT scan of the heart’s arteries to measure coronary artery calcification in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to better understand heart calcium buildup and may help improve risk assessment for people with diabetes.
HengyangAges 18 years+ - NCT05931783Recruiting
Compare two ways to use an artery during heart bypass
This study compares two surgical techniques for heart bypass: using the left internal thoracic artery in one specific way versus another. It may help improve how well the bypass works in people who need bypass surgery for multiple blocked heart arteries.
GrazAges 18–80 - NCT05509010Recruiting
AI registry using CT scan to assess coronary artery disease
This trial builds and tests an AI system using information from a heart CT scan to help evaluate coronary artery disease (clogged heart arteries). If you need a CT coronary angiography for medical reasons, this may help improve how such scans are analyzed and used in care.
