Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–90 - NCT04998357Recruiting
Autologous mitochondrial transplant after acute stroke complications
This trial studies whether giving your own mitochondria (cell energy parts) can improve recovery after certain emergencies in the brain, such as blocked brain blood vessels or dangerous vessel spasm after a brain bleed. You might be considered if you can safely receive standard procedures and also get a brain MRI.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–85 - NCT07068789Recruiting
Leg Artery Bypass: One vs. Multiple Vessels for Severe Limb Threat
This trial compares opening up one versus multiple blood vessels below the knee to improve blood flow in people with severe leg pain or wounds. It aims to find the best approach to save the limb and improve quality of life.
Sohag, Sohag GovernorateAges 40 years+ - NCT07059520Recruiting
Pressure test for blocked gut arteries (PRESSURE study)
This trial checks if a pressure measurement across a narrowed gut artery helps doctors decide if treatment is needed. It may help people with chronic gut artery blockages who are already scheduled for a procedure.
Enschede, OverijsselAges 18 years+ - NCT07023965Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up study for gene therapy in critical limb ischemia
This study follows up with people who previously took part in a clinical trial testing an experimental gene therapy for critical limb ischemia (severe leg pain or sores due to blocked arteries). It aims to see how well the treatment works over time. If you were in that earlier trial and received at least one dose, joining this follow-up could help researchers learn more about the therapy's lasting effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 20–85 - NCT06954610Recruiting

This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT05549752RecruitingPhase 3
Flecainide vs amiodarone to treat fast heart rhythm in ER
This trial compares two medicines—flecainide and amiodarone—to help restore normal rhythm during an emergency visit for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a-fib). It’s aimed at people who also have coronary artery disease but no ongoing (residual) heart ischemia, and who have enough heart pumping strength.
AthensAges 18–85 - NCT06869564Recruiting
Blood test study for acute mesenteric ischemia diagnosis
This pilot study looks at markers in your blood that might help doctors tell if you have a serious bowel condition called acute mesenteric ischemia. You may be asked to participate if you have severe belly pain and need a special CT scan to check for this condition.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05735002Recruiting
Check tests to find chronic bowel blood flow problems early
This study looks at ways to promote early diagnosis of chronic mesenteric ischemia, a condition where the intestines don’t get enough blood over time. If you’re being evaluated for this problem, the trial may help ensure the right diagnosis happens sooner.
Enschede, OverijsselAges 18 years+ - NCT06747117Recruiting
Removing blood clots in leg arteries with the Indigo system
This study tests a device that vacuums out blood clots from blocked leg arteries, potentially restoring blood flow without open surgery.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06708000Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Personalized testing for new chest pain
This trial compares a personalized evaluation approach to standard care for people with new chest pain who might have heart disease. It aims to see if tailoring tests can improve diagnosis and outcomes.
HerningAges 30–75 - NCT06705751Recruiting
Faster diagnosis of abnormal coronary artery origin
This study tests a new, faster way to diagnose an uncommon heart condition where one of the main arteries (the coronary artery) starts from the wrong place on the aorta. The goal is to help doctors find and treat it sooner.
San Donato Milanese, ItaliaAges 6 years+ - NCT06544135Recruiting
Thermal camera study for blood flow in PAD with tissue loss
This study uses a special camera that detects heat to see blood flow in your leg before and after a procedure to open blocked arteries.
Beachwood, OhioAges 18–99 - NCT05854615RecruitingPhase 4
Stem cell treatment for painful poor blood flow in limbs
This trial tests whether a stem cell product (Stempeucel®) is safe and effective for people with Buerger’s disease causing critical limb ischemia and foot ulcers. It may help improve healing and blood flow when other options may be limited.
Kuala LumpurAges 18–65 - NCT05854641RecruitingPhase 4
Stem cell treatment for poor blood flow in the leg ulcers
This trial tests whether a stem cell product (Stempeucel®) can improve healing and safety for people with critical limb ischemia caused by peripheral artery disease. It is for patients who cannot have (or have already tried) procedures to reopen blocked leg arteries and who have a leg ulcer and low blood-flow measurements.
Kuala LumpurAges 18–65 - NCT06277362Recruiting
New Leg-Saving Treatment for Critical Limb Ischemia
This study tests a new way to restore blood flow to the leg in people who have wounds or dead tissue on their foot and have run out of other treatment options. It's for those who have already tried angioplasty twice without success or have severely hardened small arteries.
Ancona, AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT06271577Recruiting
Smartphone ECG for heart attack detection
This study tests whether a smartphone can take a 12-lead ECG (a heart tracing) quickly when someone arrives at the ER with chest pain, to help doctors spot a heart attack sooner.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06238050Recruiting
Oxygen therapy for severe leg artery disease
This trial tests whether breathing pure oxygen at normal pressure can help people with severe, long-lasting lack of blood flow in their legs. It may offer a way to improve oxygen delivery to the leg and possibly avoid amputation.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT05851391RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug treatment to stop hard-to-control seizures after cardiac arrest
This Phase 2 trial tests a medication strategy to stop “refractory status epilepticus,” a severe seizure condition that can happen after a cardiac arrest. It may help by reducing ongoing seizure activity after return of circulation in the ICU.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05830721Recruiting
Monitoring leg pressure in adults on life-support
This trial tests a device that continuously measures pressure in an arm or leg to help detect compartment syndrome in people on a heart-lung machine (VA-ECMO). It may help clinicians act sooner if pressure becomes dangerous, potentially reducing complications.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ischemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 203 recruiting ischemia 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 ischemia 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 ischemia 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.
