Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06863545Recruiting
PCSK9 Inhibitors for High-Risk Coronary Plaques on CT
This study tests whether adding a PCSK9 inhibitor (a newer cholesterol-lowering shot) to standard treatment can reduce heart risks in people who have certain high-risk plaque features seen on a CT scan of their heart arteries.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06915597Recruiting
Drug-coated balloons for coronary artery disease
This trial is studying how well drug-coated balloons work for people with coronary artery disease. It looks at their use in many different situations, including new blockages, re-narrowed stents, and complex cases. The goal is to see if they are a good option for opening blocked arteries.
DenizliAges 18 years+ - NCT05923489Recruiting
Follow-up angiography after stent placement in high-risk patients
This study checks how routine repeat heart blood-vessel imaging (angiography) after stent placement may help high-risk patients. It is meant for people who had a successful stent procedure and have certain higher-risk heart features.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06961136Recruiting
Herbal medicine for recovery after heart bypass surgery
This trial tests if a traditional Chinese herbal formula (Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription) can help people recover faster after coronary artery bypass surgery. It is for people who have a specific pattern of symptoms (called Qi-Yin deficiency) after their operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 25–85 - NCT07657624Recruiting
Heart disease and memory problems risk study
This study looks at what factors might increase the risk of memory and thinking problems in people with coronary heart disease. It includes testing your memory and metabolism during a hospital stay.
Beijing, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03629418Recruiting
Blood-pressure strategy to prevent kidney injury after heart bypass
This trial tests a targeted way to manage blood pressure before and after off-pump heart bypass surgery, with the goal of reducing acute kidney injury (sudden kidney problems). It may help some people by lowering stress on the kidneys during and right after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50 years+ - NCT07703033Recruiting
Heart Impact Study for Breast Cancer Radiotherapy
This study looks at how information about the heart may affect treatment decisions for people receiving radiation therapy for breast cancer. It aims to help reduce heart-related side effects from treatment.
CopenhagenAges 35 years+ - NCT04691037Recruiting
CT heart scan to guide care for stable chest pain
This trial studies whether a CT heart scan (CCTA) can better guide treatment decisions for people with stable chest pain caused by blocked heart arteries. It may help your care team choose the next best step based on scan results.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06141525Recruiting
Remote conditioning for safer heart bypass recovery
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your arm) can help patients recover better after off-pump heart bypass surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces complications and improves heart function.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT06588231Recruiting
Personalized exercise for older adults with heart disease
This study tests whether a personalized exercise program can help older people (60–75) with stable coronary heart disease improve their heart health. You would work with healthcare professionals to get an exercise plan tailored to your condition.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 60–75 - NCT06699420RecruitingPhase 4
Qishenyiqi pill for small vessel heart disease
This trial tests if a Chinese herbal pill called Qishenyiqi can help people with chest pain caused by tiny heart blood vessels that are too tight. It may be an option if standard tests show your heart vessels are mostly clear but your blood flow is reduced.
Jinan, ShandongAges 40–75 - NCT06168422Recruiting
