Studying graft problems after bypass surgery
This study looks at why some bypass grafts fail over time. It may help find better ways to treat or prevent graft problems in people who have had coronary artery bypass surgery.
Edinburgh, MidlothianAges 18 years+ - NCT06804499Recruiting
Coronary artery disease and sudden cardiac arrest study
This study is for people with coronary artery disease (blocked arteries in the heart) who live in the Pirkanmaa area of Finland. It will collect information and blood samples to better understand heart disease and sudden cardiac arrest.

IVUS-guided stent placement for kidney disease patients
This trial tests whether using a special ultrasound camera inside the artery (IVUS) to guide stent placement can improve outcomes for people with serious kidney disease. The goal is to use less contrast dye and protect the kidneys better.
Créteil, CreteilAges 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 - NCT06822894Recruiting

Heart scan study for retired NFL players
This trial uses heart CT scans to measure plaque and blood flow in retired NFL players, helping understand heart risks.
Greenwood Village, ColoradoAges Any age - NCT06843005Recruiting
Heart CT scan study for plaque changes in mild coronary disease
This study uses repeat CT scans of the heart to see how plaque buildup changes over time in people with mild, non-blocking coronary artery disease. It may help doctors decide on better treatments to prevent future heart problems.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06844942Recruiting
Improving heart artery imaging for chest pain diagnosis
This trial uses a special camera called OCT to take detailed pictures of the heart's arteries. It aims to see if these pictures help doctors better understand blockages and decide on treatment for stable chest pain.
Warsaw, Mazowieckie VoivodenshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06845410Recruiting
INR-CAD: inflammation-related coronary artery disease study
This study follows people who have both coronary artery disease (narrowed heart arteries) and signs of chronic inflammation to learn more about their condition, current treatments, and outcomes. It helps doctors understand how best to care for patients like you.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06855537RecruitingPhase 4
Stent for vulnerable plaques in heart patients
This trial tests whether implanting stents in non-obstructive, high-risk plaques (thin-capped fatty plaques) can prevent future heart attacks. It is for people who have already had treatment for a recent heart attack or unstable angina and have additional plaques that are not severely blocking blood flow but are vulnerable.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06867926Recruiting
Heart rehab and its effect on DNA and inflammation
This study looks at whether a cardiac rehabilitation program can reduce DNA damage and inflammation in people with coronary artery disease. It may help patients understand how exercise and lifestyle changes can affect their heart health at a cellular level.
KayseriAges 18–65 - NCT06878729Recruiting
Comparing two ways to open a blocked heart artery
This trial tests two procedures—antegrade dissection/re-entry and the retrograde method—to treat a completely blocked artery. It compares which technique works better for patients with complex blockages.
Warsaw, WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06880575Recruiting
Registry for seniors with coronary heart disease (SILVER-China)
This registry study in China is following older adults (75+) with coronary heart disease to learn more about their health over time. It involves sharing your medical information and coming back for check-ups, but no experimental treatments are given.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 75 years+ - NCT06898021Recruiting
3D stent study for heart artery blockages
This trial tests a new way of placing stents in heart arteries using a special ultrasound guidance. It may be a good option if you have a heart condition needing a stent and the area to be stented is not too long.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06900270Recruiting
Comparing blood markers in coronary artery disease
This study looks at blood proteins and other molecules in people with different types of coronary artery disease. The goal is to see how these markers differ between those with blocked arteries, those with narrowed arteries, and those with no artery disease. This may help doctors better understand the disease and improve treatment.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 50–80 - NCT06910436Recruiting
AI timing and outcomes in heart attack study
This trial uses artificial intelligence to analyze ECG results and timing in patients with a type of heart attack called Non-STEMI (where the artery is narrowed but not fully blocked). The goal is to see if AI can help predict damage and outcomes, which could lead to better care.
Bolzano, BZAges 18 years+ - NCT06917664RecruitingPhase 4
Treating moderate mitral regurgitation in heart surgery patients
This trial looks at how to treat moderate mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) in people who are already having coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). It aims to find the best way to manage this condition to improve heart function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06920927Recruiting
Testing an online decision aid for heart and kidney disease
This study is testing an online tool called 'My Heart and CKD' that helps people with both chronic kidney disease and heart disease make decisions about their care. The goal is to see if it is easy to use and helpful for patients and their doctors.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 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+ - NCT06943157Recruiting
Self-efficacy and medication adherence in heart disease patients
This study looks at how confident patients with coronary artery disease feel about managing their health and taking their medications as prescribed. It aims to understand the relationship between self-efficacy and medication adherence in Turkish-speaking patients.
AdıyamanAges 18 years+ - NCT06949150Recruiting
Combined heart CT scan study for coronary artery disease
This study tests a new way to use CT scans to look at both the structure of your heart arteries and how well blood flows through them. It may help doctors get a more complete picture of coronary artery disease without extra procedures.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06954714Recruiting
Balloon vs stent for new heart blockages
This trial compares two treatments for new blockages in heart arteries: a drug-coated balloon (a tiny balloon that delivers medicine) versus a drug-eluting stent (a small mesh tube that releases medicine). The study hopes to see which approach keeps the artery open longer and is safer over time.
Busan, BusanAges 19 years+ - NCT06972225Recruiting
Study of heart outcomes after drug-coated balloon treatment

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for coronary artery disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 731 recruiting coronary artery disease studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a coronary artery disease trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a coronary artery disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
