Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1 month–18 years - NCT06994624Recruiting
Plant-based diet study for heart disease
This study tests whether switching to a defined plant-based diet can help people with heart disease. It aims to see if this diet improves heart health markers and how you feel.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07000045Recruiting
Shock wave vs drill for hard calcium in heart arteries
This study tests a new way to break up hard calcium deposits in heart arteries using shock waves (lithotripsy), with or without a special drill (rotational atherectomy), before placing a stent. It may help people with severely calcified blockages that are hard to treat with standard methods.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07001007Recruiting
Heart vibration test for cardiovascular risk
This trial uses a special device that measures vibrations from your heart to see if it can better predict your risk for heart disease. It's for people already in the larger SCAPIS 2 study who had an echocardiography exam.
StockholmAges 58–72 - NCT07009418Recruiting
CT scan vs. usual care after heart stent or balloon treatment
This trial tests whether a CT scan of the heart arteries is a safe and effective alternative to standard follow-up tests in people who have had a stent or drug-coated balloon placed in a high-risk coronary artery. It may help reduce the need for additional invasive procedures.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT07010029Recruiting
Heart vein device for angina with no blocked arteries
This trial tests a special device placed in a vein of the heart to help patients who have chest pain (angina) but no major blockages in their heart arteries. It is designed for people who have tried maximum medications but still have symptoms.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07010094Recruiting
Shockwave balloons for hardened heart artery blockages
This trial tests a special balloon that uses shock waves to crack calcium in heart arteries, making it easier to place a stent. It is for people with chest pain or signs of heart strain due to a single, severely blocked artery with dense calcium.
Fujian, XiamenAges 18–85 - NCT07013344Recruiting
Link between NT-proBNP and heart artery disease
This study looks at a blood test called NT-proBNP to see if it can help predict how much blockage is in the heart's arteries. It may help doctors better understand heart disease risk.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07022587Recruiting
Dissolving stent with drug for blocked heart arteries
This trial tests a stent that slowly dissolves after opening a blocked heart artery, releasing a drug to prevent reclogging. It may help people with narrowing in one or two spots that are not too hard or twisted.
Xi'an, ShannxiAges 18–75 - NCT07025148RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two blood thinners after stenting for high-risk patients
This trial tests switching from a standard blood thinner (clopidogrel) to a lower dose of a stronger one (prasugrel) in people who have had a stent placed and are at high risk for both bleeding and heart problems. The goal is to see if the switch better prevents clots while keeping bleeding risks low.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07034157Recruiting
Ultrasound screening and treatment for artery disease
This study tests if using ultrasound to screen for blocked neck and head arteries can improve treatment plans for people getting heart artery stents. It aims to find hidden blockages and tailor therapy to reduce stroke and other risks.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07036770Recruiting
Heart artery check with new CT and camera inside arteries
This trial tests a new CT scanner (photon-counting CT) combined with a tiny camera inside the heart arteries to better see blockages. It's for people with chest pain or silent ischemia, but not for those having a big heart attack (STEMI) or with unstable conditions.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07068399Recruiting
Shock Wave Therapy for Heart Blood Flow
This study tests if shock wave therapy can help grow new blood vessels in people with non-obstructive coronary artery disease. Researchers will use special heart MRI scans to see if the treatment improves blood flow to your heart.
Hong KongAges 18–80 - NCT07087431Recruiting
Genetic risk score for heart disease and health habits
This study looks at whether sharing a genetic risk score for heart disease can help people make heart-healthy changes. If you're not on cholesterol medication, you may be able to join.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30–75 - NCT07107568Recruiting
Testing ways to check heart arteries before valve replacement
This trial compares different methods to evaluate coronary artery disease in patients planning to have a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis. The goal is to find out if a less invasive approach is as safe and effective as the standard one.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT07107971Recruiting
Drug balloon vs. standard care for fatty heart plaques
This study compares a drug-coated balloon (which releases medicine into the artery) with standard medicines alone for treating fatty plaques in the heart arteries. It is for people who have already had a heart attack and a successful opening of a blocked artery.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07114393Recruiting
Better imaging to guide complex heart artery procedures
This study looks at whether using advanced imaging inside the heart arteries during complex procedures leads to better outcomes compared to current standard practice. If you have had a complex angioplasty (PCI) and your data is in a national heart registry, you may be included.
Eindhoven, North BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07116083Recruiting
Study of a new way to check branch blockages after stent placement
This trial looks at a new method called µQFR to check if there are any significant blockages in the side branches of heart arteries after a single stent has been placed. It aims to see if this method can help doctors decide if more treatment is needed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07116343RecruitingPhase 4
Pain relief through chest tube medication after heart surgery
This trial tests whether giving a numbing medicine (ropivacaine) through the chest tube after open-heart surgery can reduce pain. It may help patients recover more comfortably.
Saint PetersburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07118930RecruitingPhase 2
Testing sivelestat sodium for heart bypass patients
This trial tests if an anti-inflammatory drug called sivelestat sodium can help people recover after heart bypass surgery. It is for patients having planned bypass surgery on at least two heart arteries.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07123181Recruiting
Oregano and basil for unstable angina
This trial tests if eating oregano and basil leaves can help people with unstable angina, a type of chest pain from heart disease. It looks for improvements in heart health without using strong medications.
