Coronary artery disease clinical trials in Maryland
We’re tracking 14 recruiting coronary artery disease studies with a site in Maryland — including Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT07830719RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new drug for heart disease and inflammation
This study tests a new medicine called YMI024 for people with stable coronary artery disease (blockages in heart arteries) and higher than normal levels of inflammation. The drug aims to reduce inflammation and may lower the risk of future heart problems.
Ft. Washington, MarylandAges 18–80 - 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 30–60 - NCT07045194Recruiting
Study of Virtue balloon for coronary stent re-narrowing
This trial tests a special balloon to treat narrowed areas inside a previously placed heart stent. It may help by reopening the artery without adding another stent.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05994014Recruiting
Comparing two heart scans for artery blockages
This study compares two types of heart scans to see which one better finds blockages in the arteries of people with chest discomfort or shortness of breath when active. You will have both a special CT scan and a PET/CT scan to check the health of your heart arteries.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - 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.
Bowie, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Hyattsville, MarylandAges Any age - NCT05055297Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for severe leg artery blockage in lower legs
This trial studies a “drug-coated balloon” procedure to improve blood flow in people with severe, long-lasting poor circulation in the lower leg arteries. It may help reduce repeat blockage after treatment for selected artery lesions below the knee.
Hyattsville, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06170541Recruiting
Comparing heart artery scans for coronary disease
This study tests whether a newer CT scan method can better detect coronary heart disease. You may qualify if your doctor referred you for a heart CT scan.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–85 - NCT01730092Recruiting
Study of blood and imaging biomarkers in pulmonary artery hypertension
This study tracks natural changes in “biomarkers” (measurable signals in blood) and imaging findings in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or suspected PAH. It also includes healthy people for comparison, helping researchers understand what these signals mean over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07293260RecruitingPhase 3
Olpasiran heart scan study for high Lp(a) patients
This study tests if a medication called olpasiran can lower a type of fat in your blood called Lp(a), which is linked to heart problems. You take the medicine or a placebo and get a special heart scan to see changes in your 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.

Common questions
- Are there coronary artery disease clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 14 recruiting coronary artery disease studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a coronary artery disease study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a coronary artery disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New coronary artery disease studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
