Recruiting studies near Riverside–San Bernardino
- NCT05996328Recruiting

Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07730268Enrolling by invitation
Vivio at-home study for heart failure monitoring
This study tests a home monitoring device (Vivio) for people who already have a CardioMEMS implant to check if the new device can track your heart health easily at home.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT05685303Recruiting
Testing a treatment for heart failure symptoms with normal pumping ability
This study is looking at a new treatment for people with heart failure where the heart’s pumping strength is not reduced much (HFpEF or HFmrEF), but pressure inside the heart is high during exercise. It may help relieve symptoms in people who still feel unwell during normal activity despite stable standard treatment.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines
This study measures how certain medicines move through the body and checks their safety in children. It may help doctors better understand dosing and side effects in kids who are already receiving these treatments, or in some kids who recently tested positive for COVID-19.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges birth–20 years - NCT05610787Enrolling by invitation
Testing a device that helps move an EXCOR pediatric heart pump
This trial studies an “active driving” system that controls the EXCOR pediatric heart pump. It’s meant for children who need a heart pump as a bridge to heart transplantation, to help the pump work more safely and effectively.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT06939751Recruiting
Testing microRNA levels to personalize heart transplant care
This trial is studying whether a blood test that measures small molecules called microRNAs can help doctors personalize the medicines used to prevent rejection after a heart transplant. If you qualify, you would help researchers learn how to better match immunosuppression to each patient's needs.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT05791227Enrolling by invitation
Testing AI tool that measures heart wall thickness on ultrasound
This study tests an artificial-intelligence (AI) software tool that measures heart muscle thickness from routine heart ultrasound images. It focuses on whether the AI measurements are safe and accurate when used by the clinic’s echocardiography team.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT06812533Recruiting
Testing a new approach for heart failure with weak pump
This study tests a new device or procedure to help people with heart failure and a weak heart pump. If you have a low ejection fraction and are on standard medications, you may be able to join.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06895070Recruiting
Heart transplant study using a special preservation machine
This trial tests a special machine that preserves donor hearts for longer periods before transplant. It may help people waiting for a heart transplant who need a heart from a donor that may be older or has some heart risks.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03383419RecruitingPhase 2
Hepatitis C–safe antiviral plan for heart transplant recipients
This Phase 2 trial tests giving newer hepatitis C medicines in a careful way to people getting a heart transplant who currently do not have hepatitis C in their blood. The goal is to lower hepatitis C infection risk from donated organs while keeping transplant outcomes safe.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT05934487Recruiting
Monitoring device trial for stable heart failure symptoms
This trial tests whether a wearable home monitoring system (myCordella™) can help people with moderate heart failure (NYHA class II or III) by tracking heart pressure and supporting follow-up care. It may help detect changes earlier so clinicians can adjust treatment sooner.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06826534Recruiting
At-home heart rehab for teens with heart failure risk
This study tests if a home-based exercise program using a Fitbit can help teens who had chemotherapy improve their heart and lung fitness. You would exercise at home, track your activity, and have monthly virtual check-ins for 6 months.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges birth–21 years - NCT03876223Recruiting
Testing imaging to study heart symptoms without blocked arteries
This trial studies people who have heart-related symptoms but do not have clear blocked heart arteries, using special heart imaging. It may help researchers better understand early forms of heart weakness (with preserved pumping function) and improve how these conditions are diagnosed.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06877169Recruiting
Staged heart and kidney transplant study
This study compares two ways of doing a combined heart and kidney transplant. It looks at doing the surgeries in separate stages instead of all at once, to see if that is safer or works better.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05064709Recruiting
Test device for heart failure symptoms in some patients
This study tests whether a heart-related device called CCM can improve symptoms and daily function in people with heart failure and a moderately reduced pumping strength. It may help if you’ve had recent heart-failure-related hospital care or urgent treatment and your heart and overall health fit the study limits.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05265520Recruiting
Pacing strategy study for certain heart failure patients
This trial tests a pacing approach designed to improve how the heart beats in some people with heart failure and a specific heart rhythm pattern on ECG. If you already need a device (CRT-D) based on your results, the study may help see whether this pacing correction improves outcomes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07069738Recruiting
New pacemaker vs standard cardiac therapy for heart failure
This study tests a newer type of pacemaker that paces the heart's left bundle branch area, compared to the usual cardiac resynchronization therapy. It is for people with heart failure who need a combined pacemaker-defibrillator (CRT-D) and have a specific heart rhythm pattern (left bundle branch block) with reduced pumping strength.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06183437RecruitingPhase 4
Can I stop heart meds after cancer therapy?
This trial tests whether it is safe to stop taking heart failure medications in people who developed heart weakness after cancer treatment but whose heart function has since recovered. It aims to see if stopping these drugs leads to any worsening of heart health.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05427370Recruiting
Compare bypass or stent treatment in weak heart patients
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stent procedure (PCI)—in people with a weak pumping heart. It looks at which approach works best when the heart muscle is not pumping well and there are multiple blocked heart arteries.
