Recruiting studies near Baltimore
- NCT06778239Recruiting
Childhood high blood pressure natural history study
This study follows children and young adults who have high blood pressure that started in childhood. It aims to understand why some kids develop high blood pressure without a clear cause, by looking at their genes, family history, and health over time. Participants will provide samples and medical information to help researchers learn more.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–99 - NCT01730092Recruiting
Study of blood and imaging biomarkers in pulmonary artery hypertension
This study tracks natural changes in “biomarkers” (measurable signals in blood) and imaging findings in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or suspected PAH. It also includes healthy people for comparison, helping researchers understand what these signals mean over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT02417740Recruiting
Study of the natural course of noncirrhotic portal hypertension
This study follows people with noncirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH) or people at risk for it to better understand how the condition progresses over time. It does not sound like a medication trial—more like careful monitoring to learn what happens in different people.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–100 - NCT00001853Recruiting
Heart disease risk study in Black adults
This study looks at how obesity and blood fat (triglyceride) levels affect heart disease risk differently in Black men and women. You may join if you're a healthy Black adult between 18 and 70, without diabetes.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT05967299RecruitingPhase 1
IV ZMA001 study in healthy adults
This Phase 1 trial tests how an IV medicine called ZMA001 behaves in healthy people and checks for early safety. It may help future studies of the drug by confirming dosing and effects in people before testing in patients.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–60 - NCT01712620RecruitingPhase 2
Spironolactone for pulmonary arterial hypertension
This study tests whether spironolactone, a water pill that helps the heart and blood vessels, can improve symptoms in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a condition of high blood pressure in the lungs. It's a phase 2 trial, meaning it's early but may offer a new treatment option.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - 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.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05587712RecruitingPhase 2
Sotatercept trial for children with pulmonary arterial hypertension
This Phase 2 trial tests sotatercept, a medicine that targets the blood-vessel changes in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), in children. It may help improve how well the heart and lungs work by changing the underlying disease process.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–17 - NCT07175038RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new pill for pulmonary hypertension
This study tests a new pill, ROC-101, for people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). It aims to see if the pill can improve symptoms and daily function.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–80 - NCT07594808Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Stress Management App for African American Men with High Blood Pressure
This study tests a mobile stress-management app to help African American men lower their blood pressure. If you have high blood pressure and a smartphone, you may be able to take part from home.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04669548Recruiting
Accuryn monitoring study for people having heart surgery
This registry collects information from patients who are monitored with the Accuryn system during heart surgery and their ICU stay. It helps researchers learn from the system’s signals to better understand patient care around cardiac procedures.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06274801RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term study of seralutinib for pulmonary arterial hypertension
This trial is for people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who have already completed a previous study of the drug seralutinib. It offers continued access to the treatment so doctors can watch its safety and effects over a longer time.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 18–75 - NCT06468202RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin dose study to prevent high blood pressure in pregnancy
This trial compares two doses of aspirin to see which is better at preventing conditions like preeclampsia (a serious form of high blood pressure during pregnancy). You may qualify if you are in early pregnancy and have certain risk factors.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 14–35 - NCT06402968Recruiting
Clevidipine for treating high blood pressure after a brain bleed
This trial tests a blood pressure medicine called clevidipine given through an IV to people with a brain bleed (intracerebral hemorrhage). The goal is to see if quickly lowering blood pressure helps prevent more bleeding and improve recovery.
Frederick, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07142356RecruitingPhase 2
New oral medication for high blood pressure not controlled by current pills
This study tests a new medication, RTN-001, for people whose blood pressure remains high even when taking multiple blood pressure medications. The goal is to see if this drug can lower blood pressure more effectively.
Vienna, VirginiaAges 18–75 - NCT07783802RecruitingPhase 2
Study of clazakizumab for adults with high inflammation and heart risk
This study tests whether clazakizumab can reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes in people with high levels of inflammation (measured by a blood test called hsCRP) and conditions like heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or kidney disease. If you qualify, you'll receive either the study drug or a placebo to see if it helps lower your risk.
