Recruiting studies in Texas
- 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.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18–80 - 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.
Carrollton, TexasAges 18–80 - 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.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–110 - NCT07296744Recruiting
Study of a heart pump for high-risk angioplasty
This trial tests a new device called the Supira system to support the heart during a high-risk procedure to open blocked arteries. It is for people who are stable enough to wait for the procedure (not in emergency or shock).
Plano, TexasAges 18–90 - 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Kyle, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06896903Recruiting
Testing heart artery function with and without nitroglycerin
This study compares two ways of testing the small blood vessels in the heart to understand chest pain when no major blockages are found. It may help doctors learn more about why you have chest pain and how to treat it.
Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06814587Recruiting
New imaging for heart muscle damage after a heart attack
This study uses special imaging scans (MRI and PET) to look at the health of the heart muscle in people with advanced heart failure caused by blocked arteries. The goal is to better predict recovery after bypass surgery.
Dallas, TexasAges 20–80 - 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.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05367297Recruiting
Registry study of heart plaque in South Asian adults
This study tracks coronary plaque (fatty deposits in heart arteries) in South Asian adults and compares them with people of other backgrounds. You may be asked to have a special heart CT scan and basic measurements to help researchers understand differences in heart disease risk.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Plano, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06399705RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing bypass surgery versus stenting for Black and Hispanic patients with coronary artery disease
This study compares two common ways to treat blocked heart arteries: bypass surgery and stenting. It aims to find which works better for Black and Hispanic patients with multiple blockages.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06399692RecruitingPhase 3
Choosing heart bypass or stents for women with heart disease
This study compares two common procedures to improve blood flow to the heart in women with blockages in multiple heart arteries. It aims to find which approach works better for women and may help guide future treatment decisions.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06164730RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VERVE-102 for high cholesterol or early heart disease
This trial tests a new medicine called VERVE-102 for people with a specific type of high cholesterol (HeFH) or early coronary artery disease. It aims to see if it can help lower cholesterol levels.
DeSoto, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT06047028Recruiting
Heart MRI scan to assess tissue health
This study uses a special MRI scan to look at heart muscle metabolism in people with heart failure caused by blocked arteries. It may help doctors better understand which heart tissue is still alive and could recover.
Dallas, TexasAges 20–80 - 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.
Plano, TexasAges 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.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Amarillo, TexasAges 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.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07048808RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for chronic chest pain
This trial tests a new gene therapy (XC001) delivered through a thin tube into your heart's blood vessels. It aims to grow new blood vessels to relieve chest pain in people with chronic angina who have no other treatment options.
Plano, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT06662500Recruiting

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.
