Recruiting studies near Los Angeles
- NCT07318610RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new blood thinner in people with leg artery disease
This trial tests if a new blood-thinning drug (factor XI inhibitor) can prevent serious heart and leg problems in people who recently had a leg artery procedure. It compares the new drug to standard care for up to 3 years.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04124120Recruiting

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06326996RecruitingEarly Phase 1

This study tests if giving thiamine (vitamin B1) before heart bypass surgery can help people with low thiamine levels. It is designed for patients who are having a specific type of bypass that does not use a heart-lung machine.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60–80 - 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07223593RecruitingPhase 3
Orforglipron for peripheral artery disease with leg pain
This trial tests a new oral medication called orforglipron to see if it can improve walking distance in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who have leg pain when walking. It may be a good option if you have PAD and your walking is limited by leg cramping, not other health issues.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05701358Recruiting
Guiding heart stent decisions to fully treat blocked arteries after a heart attack
This trial compares two ways doctors decide which additional blocked heart arteries to treat with stents soon after a heart attack. It may help patients avoid later heart problems by testing a “complete revascularization” strategy planned after the initial culprit artery was treated.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06027788Recruiting
Embolic protection during heart valve surgery
This trial tests a device that may help protect your brain from small particles during heart valve surgery. It is for people 60 and older having certain types of valve replacement or repair.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT05946629Recruiting
Drug-coated stent trial for narrowed heart arteries
This trial studies a drug-coated balloon (plus standard heart medicines) to treat a specific type of blockage in the heart arteries in people who need an intervention. It may help keep the artery open and prevent the narrowing from coming back, depending on how well you match the detailed heart and medication requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02582021Recruiting
Study of treatments and imaging in women with angina or HFpEF
This trial studies how heart disease affects the heart using heart imaging, and looks at people with chest pain/angina or heart failure with preserved pumping strength (HFpEF). It may help doctors better understand what’s driving symptoms and how best to evaluate these conditions.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–110 - NCT07761728Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two heart PET scan tracers
This study compares two types of radioactive tracers used during heart PET scans to see if one is better at detecting blocked arteries. Participation involves receiving one of the tracers during your routine scan and may help improve heart disease diagnosis.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05913999Enrolling by invitation
PET and heart scans during early chemotherapy
This trial studies how a specialized heart imaging test (PET/MPI) changes during the start of chemotherapy for cancer patients. It may help researchers understand whether this monitoring approach detects heart strain early and keeps patients safer during treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06927739RecruitingPhase 2
Orticumab for heart artery inflammation after a heart attack
This trial tests a drug called orticumab to see if it can reduce inflammation in the arteries of the heart after a heart attack. It may help prevent future heart problems.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02301663Recruiting
Stress test study of heart blood-flow issues in adults
This study tests a new kind of stress test to understand how small blood-vessel heart problems relate to heart relaxation problems in people with angina (chest pain) but no blocked arteries. It may help doctors learn better ways to diagnose and guide treatment for these conditions.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT06959524Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for new coronary blockages
This trial is testing a special balloon coated with medication to treat newly formed blockages in the heart's arteries. The medication may help keep the artery open after the balloon opens it during a standard procedure.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07232069RecruitingPhase 3
Early heart disease trial for women and men with mild plaque buildup
This trial tests whether two medicines, a statin and colchicine, can slow or stop early heart artery plaque from growing in people who have mild plaque but no heart disease symptoms yet. It uses special CT scans to measure plaque over 2 years.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 30–60 - NCT00573027Recruiting
Study of heart pain from small artery heart disease
This trial studies people who have chest pain (angina) due to problems with the heart’s small arteries, not a big blockage. It aims to test whether treatment approaches can help these patients by better understanding the cause of their heart-related symptoms.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05427370Recruiting
Compare bypass or stent treatment in weak heart patients
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stent procedure (PCI)—in people with a weak pumping heart. It looks at which approach works best when the heart muscle is not pumping well and there are multiple blocked heart arteries.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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+ - NCT04451044Enrolling by invitation
Guided heart stent planning using an inside pressure sensor
This study tests whether using a tiny pressure sensor in heart arteries during a procedure can better guide where to place a stent. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective stent plan by more accurately measuring artery narrowing.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06686121RecruitingPhase 3
Improving walking after leg artery surgery for PAD
This trial tests whether drinking beetroot juice and doing home-based exercise can improve walking ability after you've had a procedure to open up blocked leg arteries. It's for people who are ready to start a walking program and want to avoid surgery.
Downey, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07521007RecruitingPhase 2
YN001 treatment for coronary artery disease
This study tests whether a new drug called YN001 can help people with coronary atherosclerosis (narrowing of heart blood vessels). The trial aims to see if it can improve outcomes in people who have early-stage blockages in their heart arteries.

What taking part in a coronary artery disease 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.
