Seoul, Songpa-GuAges 20 years+ - NCT06898827Enrolling by invitation
Virtual reality distraction therapy for cardiac rehab
This trial tests whether using virtual reality (VR) during cardiac rehabilitation can help distract you from discomfort or anxiety. If you have a heart condition or have had a heart event and are starting rehab, you may be able to join.
MsidaAges 40 years+ - NCT05208749Recruiting
Shockwave or rotablation for calcified heart artery blockages
This study tests two ways to treat tightly calcified coronary (heart) artery blockages during a procedure to open the vessel. It may help improve how well the blockage can be widened and treated when standard balloon treatment is not enough.
Leuven, BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT05897333Recruiting
Registry study for isolated coronary artery dilation
This is a “registry” study that collects health information about people who have isolated coronary artery ectasia (an abnormal dilation of a heart artery). It may help doctors better understand what to expect and how these conditions relate to symptoms like chest pain or heart attacks.
AnkaraAges 18–90 - NCT06049420Recruiting
Lifestyle medicine for rural patients with chronic disease
This trial tests whether exercise therapy can help people with two or more chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, or heart disease. It's designed for rural patients and requires a referral from your doctor.
Lewisburg, West VirginiaAges 18–64 - NCT06066450Recruiting
OSFIT Stent for Coronary Artery Blockage
This trial tests a special stent (OSFIT) in people with a blockage near the start of a coronary artery. The goal is to see if the stent works well for this specific location.
SuwonAges 19 years+ - NCT06520904RecruitingPhase 4
PCSK9 inhibitor for coronary plaque in heart disease
This study tests whether a medication called a PCSK9 inhibitor (a type of drug that lowers bad cholesterol) can improve the buildup of plaque in heart arteries. It may be an option for people with coronary artery disease who have not been helped enough by statins alone.
Ürümqi, XinjiangAges 18–65 - NCT06659367Recruiting
FFR/QFR registry for heart artery assessment
This study collects information from people who have had a standard heart test called FFR to measure blood flow in their arteries. It aims to better understand how this test helps guide treatment.
BelgradeAges 18 years+ - NCT06864234RecruitingPhase 4
Beta-blockers for chest pain without blocked arteries
This trial tests if beta-blocker medication improves blood flow and reduces resistance in the tiny blood vessels of the heart in people who have chest pain but no major blockages in their arteries.
Aalst, FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT07019350Recruiting
Smart stenting for heart artery branch blockages
This trial tests a new way to treat complex blockages in heart arteries where a side branch is also narrowed. It uses a drug-coated balloon to open the side branch, aiming to improve blood flow and reduce the need for repeat procedures.
GwangjuAges 19 years+ - NCT07439133RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing new heart scan with standard tests for coronary disease
This trial is testing a new imaging agent called XTR004 to see if it can accurately find blockages in the heart's arteries. If you have suspected or confirmed stable coronary heart disease, this study may offer a less invasive way to diagnose your condition.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT05677386Enrolling by invitation
CT heart scan trial to prevent first heart problems
This trial uses a special CT scan of the heart’s arteries to better predict who is at risk of future heart problems. It may help your care team decide how best to lower risk early.
