Recruiting studies
- NCT06872645Recruiting
Sodium-restricted diet for PD patients with high blood pressure
This study tests a new way to manage sodium (salt) for people on peritoneal dialysis. It aims to see if reducing sodium intake without water can help control blood pressure and improve health.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06874556Recruiting
Paramedic support for heart failure management
This study tests if paramedics can help manage heart failure at home or in clinic, reducing hospital visits. It may be an option if you need frequent diuretic adjustments or early discharge with monitoring.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06876441Recruiting
Home Tai Chi Program for Heart Failure Patients and Caregivers
This study tests if a home-based Tai Chi program using a smartphone app can improve the health and well-being of people with chronic heart failure who are mostly sedentary. It also looks at how this program affects their caregivers, who will practice Tai Chi alongside them.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT06897410Recruiting
Support program after hospital discharge for heart or lung issues
This program offers extra support—like social and home care help—after you leave the hospital for a heart or lung problem. It's designed for people 65 and older who live in the Sant Jaume de Calella Hospital area.
Calella, BarcelonaAges 65 years+ - NCT06956560Recruiting
Heart Scar Imaging Study for Heart Attack and Failure Patients
This study uses a special imaging agent to see a protein called PDGFRß in the heart, which may help detect scarring (fibrosis) after a heart attack or in heart failure. It aims to improve how we understand and treat heart muscle damage.
UppsalaAges 40–70 - NCT06973902Recruiting
A study on heart pump therapy and stress echo for advanced heart failure
This trial tests how well a heart stress ultrasound (dobutamine echo) can predict if you will get better from a special heart device called cardiac contractility modulation (CCM). CCM is a pacemaker-like implant for people with advanced heart failure who still have symptoms even with the best medicines. The study will help doctors know which patients benefit the most from this device.
Marcianise, CampaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06978998Recruiting
Retinal photos to help predict heart failure outcomes
This study tests whether a simple eye photo can help doctors better predict the course of heart failure with reduced pumping strength. If it works, this low-cost test could improve care for people with this condition.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT07001007Recruiting
Heart vibration test for cardiovascular risk
This trial uses a special device that measures vibrations from your heart to see if it can better predict your risk for heart disease. It's for people already in the larger SCAPIS 2 study who had an echocardiography exam.
StockholmAges 58–72 - NCT07002164Recruiting
Timing of heart artery imaging in NSTEMI with heart failure
This trial looks at the best time to perform a heart catheterization (coronary angiography) in people who have a mild heart attack (NSTEMI) and also develop worsening heart failure symptoms. The goal is to find out if doing the procedure early or later leads to better outcomes.
ChangwonAges 19 years+ - NCT07022067Recruiting
Smartphone study for chronic coronary syndrome
This study tests if a smartphone app can help people with a chronic heart condition called coronary syndrome. It aims to make care easier and track symptoms at home.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07025629RecruitingPhase 3
Dapagliflozin after ICU discharge for heart and kidney health
This study tests if the drug dapagliflozin (a medicine that helps protect the heart and kidneys) can improve recovery in patients who needed a breathing machine or blood pressure support in the ICU. If you qualify, you would take the drug after leaving the ICU to see if it lowers the risk of heart or kidney problems.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07034599Recruiting
Negative pressure breathing after heart pump implant
This study looks at how a breathing machine that uses negative pressure (like a vacuum) affects the heart and blood flow in people who have a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), a type of heart pump. It may help doctors learn the best way to support breathing after surgery.
KarlsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07052539Recruiting
Kidney disease in heart failure with obesity
This study looks at how kidney disease relates to a type of heart failure (called HFpEF) that often happens in people with obesity. It will help doctors understand this connection better.
Jackson, MississippiAges 18–75 - NCT07054489Recruiting
Genetic guided beta blocker therapy for heart failure
This trial tests whether a genetic test can help doctors choose the best beta blocker for people with heart failure who have mildly reduced pumping function. It aims to improve treatment by matching the drug to your genetic profile.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–89 - NCT07084142Recruiting
Digital aid for ICD decisions
This study is developing a digital tool to help people 70 and older with heart failure decide whether an ICD (a device that prevents dangerous heart rhythms) is right for them. Participants will help test and improve this tool.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT07087613Recruiting
Detecting heart and lung pressure problems with a smart stethoscope
This study tests if a digital stethoscope and a simple 3-lead ECG (heart rhythm test) can detect two heart conditions: high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension) and low pumping strength of the heart (low ejection fraction). It's intended for adults who recently had a heart ultrasound or a heart catheterization.
O'Fallon, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07094919Recruiting
Corheart 6 heart pump long-term study
This study follows people who have already received the Corheart 6 heart pump to see how well it works over time. You may qualify if you have severe heart failure that doesn't improve with standard treatments and you got the pump after October 1, 2021.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07096544Recruiting
Using a lung artery sensor to guide LVAD care
This study tests whether a small sensor (CardioMEMS) implanted in the lung artery can help doctors better manage LVAD settings and reduce hospital visits. It is for people who already have a HeartMate 3 heart pump and are stable enough to go home.
Plano, TexasAges 21–85 - NCT07098858Recruiting
Registry for WiSE heart device patients
This registry collects safety and performance data for the WiSE System, a device to pace the heart from inside a chamber. If you or your doctor plan to use the WiSE System, this study may help track how well it works in real patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 981 recruiting heart failure 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 heart failure 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 heart failure 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.
