Device trial for hard-to-treat heart chest pain from small vessels
This trial tests whether a small pressure-reducing device placed in a heart vein (the coronary sinus) can reduce symptoms in people with ongoing chest pain from tiny blood vessel problems. It is for angina that has not improved despite standard heart medicines, and only if special heart tests show reversible reduced blood flow.
Mainz, Rhineland-PalatinateAges 18–85 - NCT06779630Recruiting
Study of a 48mm drug-coated stent for long coronary artery blockages
This trial tests a longer-than-usual drug-coated stent (Orsiro Mission) for treating long blockages in heart arteries. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective for people with coronary artery disease.
Concord, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05416385Recruiting
Stress echo scan with special contrast to study carotid plaque
This study uses a heart stress ultrasound test, plus a contrast dye, to look for new blood vessel growth inside carotid plaque (the buildup in neck arteries). It may help doctors better judge the risk of stroke and determine which people need closer care.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05960474Recruiting
Study registry for coronary microvascular disease
This trial is a registry, meaning it mainly collects information about people with coronary microvascular disease. It may help researchers better understand the condition and how it affects daily health and treatment needs.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04844944Recruiting
Heart registry for adults with heart failure, CAD, or atrial fibrillation
This is a hospital-based study that collects standardized information about adults with specific heart conditions—heart failure, coronary artery disease, or atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors and researchers better understand these diseases and improve future care.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT07312318Recruiting
AI predicts heart artery changes after stenting
This study uses artificial intelligence to predict how heart arteries might change after a stent procedure (PCI). Researchers will collect blood samples and medical data to develop a tool that could help doctors make better treatment decisions.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07132255Enrolling by invitation
Study of remote robot-assisted heart stent placement
This trial tests whether a doctor can use a robot to place a heart stent while being in a different location. It is designed for people who need a stent to open a blocked heart artery.
Jimsar, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous RegionAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT01186133Recruiting
Testing drug-coated stents in routine heart artery treatment
This trial looks at how different types of drug-coated stents work in everyday care for people with blocked heart arteries. It may help doctors choose the best stent type to keep the artery open after treatment.
Multiple LocationsAges 19 years+ - NCT03987633Recruiting
Study links health records and samples to understand health gaps
This study asks people affected by a specific illness (or their family member) to share saliva (and sometimes blood) and answer health and quality-of-life questions. The goal is to better understand and reduce health inequality by matching new information with medical records.
Wolverhampton, West MidlandsAges 6 years+ - NCT06089902Recruiting
European registry for anomalous aortic origin of coronary arteries
This is a European registry for people with an anomalous origin of a coronary artery from the aorta (AAOCA). It will track how the condition is treated—whether with surgery or monitoring—to learn what works best.
Padova, PDAges Any age - NCT07303439Recruiting
Comparing heart artery treatments in people with diabetes
This study compares using a special medicated balloon plus a medicated stent versus using just one of them to open blocked heart arteries in people with diabetes. It aims to find which treatment works better to keep arteries open longer.
Dublin, County DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT07276282RecruitingPhase 3
Ziltivekimab for heart attack patients with artery plaque
This trial tests a new drug called Ziltivekimab to see if it can reduce plaque buildup in the heart arteries after a heart attack. It may help prevent future heart problems by targeting inflammation.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07696533Recruiting
Comparing two imaging tests for chronic coronary syndrome
This trial sees if a carotid ultrasound is as good as a CT calcium score to detect heart disease in people with chest pain. It may help avoid more expensive or less available scans.
HarrowAges 18 years+ - NCT07514962Recruiting
Minimally invasive heart bypass surgery with a blood-thinner medication
This trial tests whether a blood-thinner drug called cangrelor helps patients who are having a special type of bypass surgery that uses a small incision instead of opening the whole chest. The surgery connects a healthy artery from your chest wall directly to a blocked heart vessel to restore blood flow.
Lugano, Ch/tiAges 18 years+ - NCT05347069RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin study for people with stable heart artery disease
This trial tests whether daily aspirin is safe and effective for people who have stable (chronic) coronary artery disease but cannot have procedures to open blocked arteries. It may help reduce future heart problems, while also checking for side effects and risks from aspirin.
KyotoAges 20 years+ - NCT06001073Recruiting
Heart and brain disease health prediction study
This study uses advanced health data to predict how heart and brain conditions may progress. It aims to help doctors provide better care for people with these diseases.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 3–80 - NCT06451198RecruitingPhase 4
Indobufen vs aspirin after stent in older heart patients
This trial tests whether a blood thinner called indobufen works as well as aspirin for older people (65+) who have had a heart attack or unstable angina, received a drug-eluting stent, and are already taking two blood thinners. The goal is to find a safer or better option for long-term prevention.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT06040073Recruiting
Study of heart artery blockages after heart attack
This study is for people who recently had a heart attack and need an angiogram. It looks at blockages that are not completely blocking blood flow to learn how they change over time.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07691502Recruiting
Using CT scans before angioplasty to plan treatment
This trial tests if using a special heart CT scan (CCTA with FFRCT) before a planned angioplasty can help doctors better plan where to place stents. You may be eligible if you have a narrowing in one or two heart arteries that haven't been treated before.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 22 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.
