Recruiting studies
- NCT06615609Recruiting
Heart health management after bypass or stent
This trial tests a smartphone-based program to help people manage their blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol after heart procedures like bypass surgery or stenting. It aims to improve long-term heart health.
Ürümqi, XinjiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07256249Recruiting
Registry studying a drug-coated balloon for coronary artery disease
This trial is tracking the long-term safety and effectiveness of a sirolimus-eluting balloon (Selution SLR) in people with coronary artery disease. It aims to see how well this device works when used to open blocked arteries in real-world medical practice.
AmadoraAges 18 years+ - NCT06866756Recruiting
Comparing two drug-coated balloons for heart artery treatment
This trial is comparing sirolimus and paclitaxel drug-coated balloons to treat new blockages or restenosis (re-blockage) in heart arteries. It aims to see which type of balloon works better for opening arteries without leaving a metal stent behind.
Vigo, PontevedraAges 18 years+ - NCT07498231Recruiting
Small heart vessel study for chest pain
This study looks at the tiny blood vessels in your heart (the microcirculation) that can cause chest pain even when the main arteries are open. It aims to better understand and treat this type of chest pain, called chronic coronary syndrome.
BialystokAges 18–75 - NCT07614230RecruitingPhase 4
SGLT2 drugs and heart artery health in diabetes
This study tests whether a diabetes medication called SGLT2 inhibitors can slow the buildup of plaque in heart arteries. Researchers will use special CT scans to track changes in your coronary arteries over time.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–78 - NCT07016477Recruiting
Heart CT study for TAVI planning
This study is a registry (a collection of information) for people who are about to have a TAVI heart valve procedure. It will see how a new type of CT scanner (the NAEOTOM Alpha) can help doctors plan the procedure better.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT02061436Recruiting
Chronic total occlusion procedure registry
This study collects data from patients who are having a procedure to open a completely blocked coronary artery. It may help improve future treatments for this condition.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT06620458Enrolling by invitation
Factors affecting drug-coated balloon restenosis
This study looks at why some drug-coated balloons (used to open blocked heart arteries) might narrow again after treatment. If you have coronary artery disease and are scheduled for this procedure, you may be eligible to help researchers understand what factors affect the balloon's success.
Zhengzhou, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05418556RecruitingPhase 4
Personalized blood thinner plan after heart stent placement
This study looks at whether choosing blood thinners based on each person's needs works better than a standard approach after getting a heart stent. It aims to reduce risks like blood clots or bleeding.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT07659119Recruiting
Study of CT-FFR in chronic coronary syndrome patients
This study is following people with chronic coronary syndrome to see how a special CT-based blood flow test (CT-FFR) helps predict their heart health. If you have already had this test, you may be eligible to join and help doctors learn more about managing your condition.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT03635255Recruiting
Testing heart disease blood markers to predict heart events
This study looks at tiny molecules in your blood to see how they relate to future heart problems in people with coronary artery disease or other cardiovascular disease. If your results suggest higher or lower risk, it may help doctors better predict who could have adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04619355Recruiting
People who had a special heart scan during stent placement
This study follows people who already had a stent put in (PCI) using a special imaging test (NIRS-IVUS) to look at heart outcomes over time. If you agreed and can attend follow-up visits, this registry may help doctors better understand how this imaging-guided approach performs.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06969547Recruiting
Heart muscle coordination and microvessel function SPECT study
This study uses a special heart scan (SPECT) to look at how well the heart muscle is squeezing and how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart are working. It may help doctors understand why some people have chest pain even when their main arteries are not blocked.
TomskAges 18–75 - NCT06740396Recruiting
Depression in heart disease patients in Baghdad
This study looks at how common depression is in people with coronary artery disease and how severe it is. If you have heart disease and are being treated at a hospital in Baghdad, you can help doctors understand the link between heart health and mental health.
BaghdadAges 18 years+ - NCT07380217Recruiting
Using heart pump support for complex high-risk procedures
This trial is testing whether using a special heart pump (PulseCath iVAC2L) during complex, high-risk angioplasty can help people with very weak hearts. It's for people who need a procedure for complicated coronary artery blockages.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07293858Recruiting
Eye scan study for heart artery patients
This study looks at special eye scans (OCT) to see if they can help doctors predict how heart patients will do. It also uses artificial intelligence to analyze the scans. If you have had this type of scan during a heart procedure, you might be able to join.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges Any age - NCT06662500Recruiting
Shockwave balloon for hard heart blockages trial
This trial tests a new balloon catheter that uses sound waves to break up hard calcium blockages in heart arteries. It may be an option for people with stable chest pain or who have recovered from a recent heart attack, and who have a single, tough blockage.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06800781Recruiting
Chest tube duration to prevent afib after heart surgery
This trial tests if leaving a chest tube in a little longer after heart surgery can lower the chance of developing atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It's for people having certain planned heart surgeries who have not had this rhythm problem before.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06588595RecruitingPhase 4
Switching Blood Thinners After Stent Placement
This study compares two ways to manage blood thinners after a stent. It tests whether switching from stronger drugs (prasugrel or ticagrelor) to clopidogrel is safe and effective for long-term heart protection.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05783804Recruiting
Early cholesterol-lowering to help reverse artery plaque
This trial studies whether starting strong cholesterol-lowering treatment early can reduce or reverse plaque in the arteries. It may help protect the heart over time, especially for people with inherited high cholesterol.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18–50 - NCT07133984Recruiting
Heart imaging study for people with heart failure and blocked arteries
This study uses heart MRIs to learn more about people who have heart failure and significant blockages in their coronary arteries. If you are planning to have bypass surgery or a stent, the study may be a fit.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06448637Recruiting
Drug balloon vs. medicated stent for large heart arteries
This study compares two treatments for new blockages in large heart arteries: a drug-coated balloon (a balloon that releases medicine) versus a drug-coated stent (a small mesh tube). The goal is to see which one better helps the artery stay open and function normally.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07711951Recruiting
Bypass surgery times and ICU stay length
This study looks at how long people stay in the intensive care unit after planned coronary artery bypass surgery. It checks if the time spent on the heart-lung machine or with the aorta clamped affects recovery.

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.
