Recruiting studies near Rochester
- NCT06964464RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two heart failure medications in ICD patients
This trial compares two beta-blocker medications, carvedilol and metoprolol succinate, to see which one works better for people with heart failure who have an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). If you are currently taking metoprolol succinate, you may be able to switch to carvedilol and help researchers find the best treatment.

Bromocriptine for new postpartum heart weakness
This trial studies whether bromocriptine improves health outcomes in people recently diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy (a weakened heart during late pregnancy or soon after delivery). You may be asked about timing after childbirth, heart strength tests, and whether you plan to keep breastfeeding.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06360380Recruiting
Wearable device for fluid removal in heart failure
This trial tests a wearable device that removes extra fluid from your body without using the kidneys. It may help people with heart failure who still have fluid buildup despite taking high doses of water pills.
Rochester, New YorkAges 21–79 - 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.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07158450Enrolling by invitation
Heart health check for cancer patients
This trial tests a new device that monitors heart health during cancer treatment. It uses a simple on-body sensor alongside your regular echocardiogram to see if it can detect heart changes early.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07567001RecruitingPhase 3
Testing NNC0487-0111 for Heart Failure and Obesity
This study tests whether a new medication called NNC0487-0111 can help people with heart failure who also have obesity. Researchers will compare it to a placebo (inactive pill) to see if it improves heart function and overall health.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04592445Recruiting
Nerve ablation for right-sided symptoms in HFpEF heart failure
This trial tests a procedure to “turn off” the right greater splanchnic nerve to improve symptoms in people with HFpEF (heart failure with preserved pumping function). If successful, it may reduce shortness of breath and fluid congestion in daily life.
Rochester, New YorkAges 40 years+ - NCT06526195Recruiting
A study of CardioMEMS and HeartMate 3 for advanced heart failure
This trial tests if a combination of a tiny lung-artery pressure sensor (CardioMEMS) and a mechanical heart pump (HeartMate 3) is safe and effective for people with advanced heart failure. If you qualify, you'll either get the heart pump plus standard medical therapy, or continue with standard therapy alone and have your pressure monitored remotely.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.
Rochester, New YorkAges Any age - NCT03142152Recruiting
Mitral valve implant for heart failure with leaky mitral valve
This trial tests whether a device called the Carillon Mitral Contour System can help people with heart failure caused by a mild-to-moderate leaky mitral valve. You’d be compared against a control group, and the goal is to improve heart failure symptoms and outcomes.

What taking part in a heart failure study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
