Recruiting studies near San Francisco
- NCT06662500Recruiting
Shockwave balloon for hard heart blockages trial
This trial tests a new balloon catheter that uses sound waves to break up hard calcium blockages in heart arteries. It may be an option for people with stable chest pain or who have recovered from a recent heart attack, and who have a single, tough blockage.
San Francisco, 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.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07062471Recruiting
Shockwave balloon treatment for hardened carotid arteries before stenting
This study tests a special balloon that uses sound waves to break up calcium buildup in the carotid artery (the main artery in your neck) before placing a stent. It's for people who are at high risk for traditional surgery and have heavy calcium deposits in their artery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04124120Recruiting
Single vs multiple bypass grafts for women heart surgery
This study compares outcomes of using one bypass graft versus multiple bypass grafts during coronary artery bypass surgery in women. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and heart outcomes for eligible patients.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06959524Recruiting
AGENT balloon for new heart artery blockages
This trial tests a drug-coated balloon (AGENT DCB) versus standard angioplasty/stenting for new blockages in heart arteries. It aims to see if the coated balloon works better and is safe for people who haven't had prior stents in that spot.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05933083Recruiting
In-person vs telehealth heart rehab comparison study
This study compares whether heart rehabilitation done in person or by telehealth (video/phone) works as well for people with certain heart conditions. It may help you and others choose the safest and most effective way to receive cardiac rehab.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01524276Recruiting
Registry to track outcomes of Medtronic medical devices
This is a follow-up registry that collects information from people who have (or will receive) an eligible Medtronic device. It helps the company and doctors better understand how the device works in real-world use.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06779630Recruiting
Study of a 48mm drug-coated stent for long coronary artery blockages
This trial tests a longer-than-usual drug-coated stent (Orsiro Mission) for treating long blockages in heart arteries. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective for people with coronary artery disease.
Concord, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04634240Recruiting
Staged heart bypass plus TAVR versus TAVR alone
This study compares doing a staged coronary bypass (revascularization) along with a valve procedure (TAVR) versus doing TAVR and medical treatment alone. It aims to see which approach better helps people with both aortic valve narrowing and coronary artery disease.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06424834RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Targeted medicines for chest pain without blocked arteries
This study tests if specific heart medicines (like beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers) can help people with chest pain that is not caused by blocked arteries. It aims to treat the tiny blood vessels or spasms that may be the real cause of your pain.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 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+ - NCT06535854Recruiting
Prevail Stent Study for Heart Disease
This study tests a new type of stent for people with narrowed heart arteries causing chest pain or a recent mild heart attack. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective in improving blood flow without serious side effects.
Stanford, 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.

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
