Canicattì, AGAges 18 years+ - NCT06399900Recruiting
Light therapy plus exercise for better walking with PAD
This study tests whether adding light therapy to a walking program helps people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) walk further and feel better. You'll receive either light therapy or a placebo light while doing a supervised exercise program.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50 years+ - NCT01967511Recruiting
Study to better understand fibromuscular dysplasia
This trial studies people with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and related conditions to learn what causes them and how they behave over time. You may also be able to join if you are a healthy person matched by age and gender to help compare results.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07552948Recruiting
Radial vs. Vein Grafts for Heart Bypass Surgery
This study compares two types of blood vessels used in heart bypass surgery: the radial artery (from your forearm) versus a vein (typically from your leg). Researchers want to see which graft option works better and lasts longer in women with severe heart disease.
TomskAges 18 years+ - NCT07354841Recruiting
Testing safety of heart-lung machine tubes
This study tests two types of tubes used during heart surgery to connect you to a heart-lung machine. It aims to see if they work safely and effectively.
Bari, BAAges 18 years+ - NCT06653387Recruiting
Testing a new carotid stent with blood-flow reversal for high-risk patients
This trial tests a new carotid stent system used with a special blood-flow reversal device to treat blocked carotid arteries. It is for people with high-risk conditions who might not be good candidates for traditional open surgery, and aims to see if the stent is safe and effective in preventing strokes.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–79 - NCT05426408Recruiting
Test study for heart attacks without blocked arteries
This study looks at people who may have MINOCA (heart attack symptoms with no major artery blockage) or takotsubo syndrome (a temporary stress-related heart condition). The goal is to better understand these causes and how they should be diagnosed and treated.
StockholmAges 35–79 - NCT07657650Recruiting
Imaging test for heart failure patients before revascularization
This trial uses a special imaging scan to see if heart muscle has damage from blocked arteries. It helps doctors decide if a procedure to open blocked arteries might improve your heart function.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06032065RecruitingPhase 3
Exercise for peripheral artery disease
This trial tests whether a home-based exercise program is as effective as supervised exercise for improving walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). You will be randomly assigned to one of two exercise groups, and you may be asked to drink beetroot juice as part of the study.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50 years+ - NCT06399809RecruitingPhase 2
Fisetin for better walking in peripheral artery disease
This study tests whether a supplement called fisetin can help reduce leg pain and improve walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). If you have PAD and are 50 or older, you may be able to join and help see if fisetin can make walking easier.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50 years+ - NCT06932874RecruitingPhase 4
Metformin for diabetes with heart disease
This trial tests a long-acting metformin pill in people with both type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease. It aims to see if metformin can safely help control blood sugar in this specific group.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 30–75 - NCT04549896Recruiting
CT scan study for complex blocked heart artery procedures
This trial studies how a CT scan may help plan a procedure to open a long-standing blocked coronary artery (a chronic total occlusion). It is aimed at people with complex, difficult blockages and symptoms or heart test results showing parts of the heart may still be alive.
OllioulesAges 18–90 - NCT05701293Recruiting
RenZan stent check for leg artery narrowing
This trial follows how well the RenZan stent works and how safe it is for people with blocked or badly narrowed thigh-to-knee leg arteries. It may help by improving blood flow and adding careful monitoring to see how outcomes compare over time.
SienaAges 18 years+ - NCT05880641Recruiting
Shockwave balloon treatment for very hard, blocked iliac arteries
This trial tests a device called Shockwave M5+/L6 intravascular lithotripsy to help deliver stent grafts when the iliac (pelvic) arteries are extremely calcified and hard to access. It may help people who are being evaluated for endovascular (through-the-blood-vessel) treatment but whose anatomy makes standard access difficult.
Ancona, AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT07222683Recruiting
How kidney transplant affects heart blood vessel health
This study looks at how receiving a kidney transplant changes the health of small blood vessels in the heart. It may help people with advanced kidney disease understand the benefits of transplant on their heart health.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02966665RecruitingPhase 1
Testing blood vessel function in people of different health conditions
This early study measures how well your blood vessels work using tests that may include MRI. It compares healthy people with people who have conditions like COPD, pulmonary arterial hypertension, heart failure, or high blood pressure, to better understand “vascular function” in health and disease.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT02762162Recruiting
Registry of heart artery patients’ platelet test results
This registry collects information from people with coronary (heart) artery disease who already had platelet-related blood tests as part of usual care. The goal is to better understand how platelet responses relate to treatment and outcomes, which may help future care.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07704164RecruitingPhase 2
Colchicine to lower heart artery swelling in HIV
This trial tests if colchicine, a medicine for inflammation, can reduce swelling in the heart arteries of people with HIV. It may help lower the risk of heart problems in those already on a statin or similar medication.

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.
