Alexander City, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03781492Recruiting
Treatment study for stable angina symptoms
This study looks at managing and treating stable angina, a type of chest discomfort that happens predictably with activity or stress. It may help find better ways to control symptoms and improve daily life, but you must not have certain recent heart events to join.
Zabrze, Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07865936Recruiting
Heart health check for fatty liver disease patients
This study looks at heart health in people with fatty liver disease (MASLD) by measuring calcium in the heart's arteries with a special scan, to see if they are at risk for heart problems.
Bangkok, BangkoknoiAges 35–75 - NCT07822737Recruiting
Using CT scans to find high-risk heart plaque
This study uses a special CT scan to look at the inside of your heart arteries and find any high-risk fatty deposits (plaque) that might cause problems later. It aims to see if this scan can predict future heart events, so you and your doctor can make better treatment choices.
Beijing, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07795645Recruiting
AI model training for stomach, heart, and brain diseases
This study is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) system that learns from your medical records to better understand and possibly help with diseases like stomach issues, heart problems, and strokes. It may improve how doctors use information from your visit to guide your care.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07565805Recruiting
Heart Imaging Registry Comparing Two Scanning Methods
This study compares two different ways of taking detailed pictures of your heart arteries: a CT scan and an optical scan done during a heart catheterization. The researchers want to understand how well these two methods show blockages in your arteries.
BernAges Any age - NCT07497360Recruiting
Telehealth vs. in-person sit-stand test for PAD patients
This study compares doing a 30-second sit-stand test at home via video call versus in a clinic. The goal is to see if remote testing works as well as in-person for people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). This could help you avoid extra trips to the clinic.
Izmir, BalçovaAges 18–65 - NCT07349875RecruitingPhase 4
Colchicine for non-severe coronary plaque: a trial
This trial tests if the anti-inflammatory drug colchicine can help people with non-severe coronary artery plaque seen on a CT scan. It may be an option if you have stable chest pain or related symptoms and your heart arteries are partly blocked but not severely.
NanjingAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07169045Recruiting
Stepper test for people with peripheral artery disease
This study checks if a 6-minute stepper test is a good way to measure walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease. You will step up and down for 6 minutes to see how far you can go.
Ankara, ÇankayaAges 18–80 - NCT07063147Recruiting
Heart ultrasound for stable chest pain management
This study uses a heart ultrasound (TTE) to help doctors better manage stable chest pain. If you have chest pain that may be from a blocked artery but haven't had a heart attack or heart procedures before, this trial could help improve your care.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT06631755Recruiting
How calcium affects stent healing: an imaging study
This study looks at how calcium buildup in artery walls affects how well a stent heals. Doctors will use special imaging (OCT) right after stent placement and again a month later to check the healing of the tiny metal struts.
