Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT06742723RecruitingPhase 3
Study of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin for kidney disease and high blood pressure

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–100 - NCT03524222Recruiting
Home hospital care for adults after sudden illness
This trial tests whether certain adults can safely receive hospital-level care at home instead of staying in the hospital, using a home care team. It may help you recover in your own home if your condition fits their plan and you have support at home.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04835857Recruiting
Testing a cuff-less wrist monitor versus a regular blood pressure cuff
This study compares a cuff-less wrist blood pressure device to the usual arm cuff. You may be able to help test whether the wrist device reads blood pressure accurately and safely.
Newton, MassachusettsAges 18–90 - NCT04967989RecruitingPhase 3
Laser eye treatment timing for certain glaucoma or eye pressure
This Phase 3 study tests how best to use a laser treatment (SLT) for people with high eye pressure or mild-to-moderate primary open-angle glaucoma. It aims to find the best way to lower eye pressure and protect vision while comparing treatment approaches.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05030545RecruitingPhase 4
PET/CT study of spironolactone or eplerenone in primary aldosteronism
This study looks at how primary aldosteronism affects the heart and blood vessels, and whether blocking its hormone signal (with spironolactone or eplerenone) changes those findings on imaging tests. It is small and focuses on people with confirmed or suspected primary aldosteronism who are being followed for heart health.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT05937854RecruitingPhase 2
Tadalafil to help breathing in COPD with pulmonary hypertension
This Phase 2 study tests whether tadalafil can improve breathlessness in people with COPD and pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). It may help you breathe more easily if your symptoms are driven by this specific lung circulation problem.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 35–89 - NCT06129240Recruiting
Study of a new inhaled treprostinil powder for PH-ILD
This study tests a new dry powder inhaled medicine called LIQ861 for people with pulmonary hypertension related to lung scarring (PH-ILD). If you are already taking an inhaled treprostinil treatment but need better control, this trial may help you switch to a potentially easier-to-use version.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT06265272Recruiting
PSMA-11 PET/MRI for Liver Cirrhosis
This study uses a special PET/MRI scan with a tracer called PSMA-11 to look at how liver cirrhosis affects the liver. It may help doctors better understand and monitor the disease.
Charlestown, MassachusettsAges 18–99 - 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06557005Recruiting
Helping new mothers with chronic conditions get primary care
This study helps new mothers with chronic health conditions transition smoothly from pregnancy care to regular primary care. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes, severe obesity, depression, or anxiety, you may be able to join a program that coordinates your care after childbirth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06822439Recruiting
Remote fetal monitoring for high-risk pregnancies
This study tests if remote monitoring of your baby's heartbeat from home is a safe and effective option for high-risk pregnancies. It may reduce the need for frequent hospital visits.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06903897Recruiting
Social Needs Screening for Chronic Disease Study
This study looks at how asking about social needs (like food, housing, or money worries) can help people with chronic conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, or depression. It takes place in Family Medicine clinics and aims to improve overall health.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT06907147Recruiting
Renal denervation for uncontrolled high blood pressure
This trial tests a procedure called renal denervation to lower blood pressure in people whose medication isn't enough. It uses a special catheter to calm nerves near the kidneys that may be overactive.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT07091851Recruiting
Blood pressure support group for stroke survivors
This study tests whether a group-based program can help people with high blood pressure and a recent mild to moderate stroke better manage their blood pressure. You'll work with a team and use online tools to keep your blood pressure in a healthy range.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 35 years+ - NCT07174622Recruiting
Long-term results for renal denervation study
This study tracks patients who have uncontrolled high blood pressure and are on a steady medication plan. It checks how kidney nerve treatment (renal denervation) works in real life over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07238400RecruitingPhase 2
Heart medication study for women after preeclampsia
This study tests if a medication called a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) can help improve heart function in women who had preeclampsia and now have high blood pressure and signs of heart thickening.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT02610413Recruiting
DNA testing to explain who gets severe blood pressure with bevacizumab
This study uses whole exome DNA testing to look for inherited genetic differences that may explain why some people develop very high blood pressure from bevacizumab during breast cancer treatment. It compares people who did vs. did not develop severe bevacizumab-related hypertension.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT07523269Recruiting
Testing a Blood Pressure Bracelet for Daily Monitoring
This study tests whether wearing an Aktiia bracelet for 6 months can help doctors better understand and control your blood pressure. You'll wear the bracelet daily and visit the clinic twice to see if this wearable device helps manage high blood pressure that isn't controlled by current medications.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–85 - NCT06823115Enrolling by invitation
Worldwide study of kidney injury in newborns
This study looks at how common acute kidney injury is in newborns in the intensive care unit. It helps doctors understand which babies are at risk and how to prevent kidney problems.
Boston, MassachusettsAges birth–2 weeks - NCT04930289Enrolling by invitation

What taking part in a high blood pressure 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 high blood pressure clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 45 recruiting high blood pressure studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a high blood pressure study in Massachusetts?
- 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 Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, 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 high blood pressure 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.
