This study looks at specific blood-flow and heart-rhythm signals during an exercise test to find signs of reduced blood flow to the heart. It may help doctors spot heart problems sooner and decide who needs more care.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06820970Recruiting
Combined therapy for heart artery blockages that weren't fully opened
This trial tests if combining a new heart procedure with a special type of therapy called mindfulness therapy can help prevent heart problems in people with coronary artery disease that could not be fully fixed with stents or surgery.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06821191RecruitingPhase 4
Safer blood thinner plan after heart stent
This trial is testing whether lowering the dose of your current blood thinner or switching to a different one (clopidogrel) is safer and works just as well after you've had a stent placed. It's designed for people who are already on two blood thinners and are doing well.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06813339RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a new drug in healthy people and those with heart condition
This trial tests a new medicine called UDP-003 in two groups: healthy volunteers and people who had a heart event (acute coronary syndrome) at least a year ago. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how the body handles it, which could lead to better treatments for heart disease.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18–79 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT06790836Recruiting
CT scan vs. invasive test for heart artery blood flow
This study looks at how well a special CT scan (FFR CT) matches the results of a more invasive wire test (invasive FFR) for measuring blood flow in heart arteries. It may help doctors use CT scans more confidently instead of always needing the invasive procedure.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges 18 years+ - NCT04049591Recruiting
Higher vs lower heparin dose during planned heart stent procedure
This trial compares a higher versus lower dose of heparin (a blood thinner) during a planned PCI, which is a heart procedure to open blocked arteries using a stent. It may help hospitals and patients know which dosing approach is safest and works well during the procedure.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05743140Recruiting
Eye scan to help identify heart artery disease
This trial tests whether a special eye imaging scan (fundus OCTA) can help identify “CMD,” a type of heart-related blood flow problem. You may be eligible if you already had coronary angiography and your coronary narrowing is less than 50%.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06691191RecruitingPhase 4
Switching to a single blood thinner after heart stent
This trial tests if people who have been on two blood thinners (aspirin plus prasugrel or ticagrelor) for at least 90 days after getting a heart stent can safely switch to just one of those blood thinners. It aims to see if taking only one pill is as safe and effective as taking two.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT05762952RecruitingPhase 1
Dapagliflozin study for heart micro-blood-flow symptoms in women
This early-phase study tests whether dapagliflozin can improve tiny blood-vessel function in women who have heart-ache-like symptoms but no major blockage on heart scans. If it works, it may help symptoms related to “microvascular” heart circulation problems.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–99 - 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+ - NCT06620523RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing kidney injury after heart bypass surgery
This trial tests whether combining two natural supplements (CoQ10 and glutathione) can protect your kidneys during heart bypass surgery. It may help prevent acute kidney injury, a common complication after these procedures.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–70 - 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+ - NCT06535854Recruiting
Prevail Stent Study for Heart Disease
This study tests a new type of stent for people with narrowed heart arteries causing chest pain or a recent mild heart attack. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective in improving blood flow without serious side effects.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 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+ - NCT06313645Recruiting
Blood vessel aging and heart attack risk study
This study looks at how blood vessel aging relates to the type of fatty buildup in your arteries that can cause heart attacks. If you've had a recent heart attack, chest pain (angina), or minor artery disease and do not have advanced heart failure, kidney failure, active cancer, or prior bypass surgery, you may be able to join.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for coronary disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 680 recruiting coronary 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 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 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.
