Recruiting studies in Utah
- NCT06478017RecruitingPhase 2
Belatacept for heart transplant patients
This study tests whether a drug called belatacept can safely help your body accept a new heart without rejecting it, and may reduce the need for other strong immune-suppressing medicines. If you are getting a heart transplant for the first time and have certain immune markers, this trial may be an option for you.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18–71 - NCT06625073RecruitingPhase 4
SGLT2i for heart transplant recipients
This trial is testing a medication called SGLT2i (a type of diabetes drug that also helps the heart and kidneys) in people who have received a heart transplant. It aims to see if this drug can improve health after transplant.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 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.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges Up to 21 years - NCT05915299Recruiting
Heart surgery donor heart monitoring registry
This is a registry that collects information about how donated hearts are handled using a portable machine that keeps the heart healthy outside the body. It may help researchers improve future care, but it usually does not test a new medication.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges Any age - NCT02670408Recruiting
Microarrays test in heart transplant care
This study checks how special lab tests on heart tissue samples can help guide diagnosis and treatment for people with a heart transplant. You may be eligible if you already need a heart tissue biopsy for a clinical reason and can provide consent.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT04707872Recruiting
Study of a blood test after heart transplant
This study checks whether a special blood test can help detect heart transplant rejection or problems by comparing it to biopsy results. It may help your care team monitor your transplant with less guesswork.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges Any age - NCT06948097RecruitingPhase 1
Testing fostamatinib for lung transplant patients with new donor-specific antibodies
This trial tests a drug called fostamatinib to see if it is safe and tolerable for lung transplant patients who develop new antibodies against their donor lung. It aims to prevent rejection without harming the new lung.

What taking part in a heart transplant 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.

- Are there heart transplant clinical trials in Utah?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 7 recruiting heart transplant studies with a site in Utah, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.

- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Utah to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Utah, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a heart transplant trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
