Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 16–65 - NCT05257629RecruitingPhase 3
Aggressive smoking quit program after heart problems
This trial tests whether a strong quit plan using varenicline (a quit pill) plus nicotine e-cigarettes, along with counseling, helps people stop smoking after a recent heart-related event. It’s aimed at people who want to quit and can safely stay involved for about a year.
New Westminster, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05841784Recruiting
Mindfulness coaching for stress and mood after heart risk
This study tests a structured mindfulness program (MBCT-T) to help people who have elevated stress and/or mild anxiety or depression in the setting of heart disease or heart risk factors. It may help improve emotional well-being and stress levels while you live with these health concerns.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05919342Recruiting
Screening for early heart failure in primary care or at home
This trial tests whether simple screening using a blood test (natriuretic peptides) plus an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) can find early heart failure sooner. Finding it earlier may help doctors start the right management to prevent it from getting worse.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40 years+ - NCT06014515RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Single injection PET scan to study body metabolism
This study uses a single injection and a special type of PET scan to look at how your body's tissues use fuel (metabolism). It helps researchers learn more about normal and disease-related changes in the heart, liver, and other organs.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06021808Recruiting
LAA clip vs. blood thinners to prevent stroke in non-paroxysmal AF
This study compares two ways to prevent stroke in people with persistent or long-standing atrial fibrillation (AF): taking a blood thinner (NOAC) or having a minimally invasive procedure to clip off the left atrial appendage (LAA). The goal is to see which approach works better at preventing stroke without causing major bleeding.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06108414RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose vs standard-dose blood thinner for older adults with atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the blood thinner rivaroxaban works as well as the standard dose for people 70 and older with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). The goal is to find the safest dose to prevent strokes while reducing bleeding risks.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 70 years+ - NCT06203860Recruiting
Heart-focused clinic for diabetes and heart disease
This study is testing whether a special heart-focused clinic can help people with type 2 diabetes who also have heart or blood vessel problems. If you have both diabetes and a heart condition like prior heart attack, stroke, heart failure, or hard-to-control high blood pressure, this program may support your health.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ischemic cardiovascular disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 124 recruiting ischemic cardiovascular disease 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 ischemic cardiovascular disease 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 ischemic cardiovascular disease 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.
