Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT07214376Recruiting
Nerve ablation for pulmonary hypertension from left heart disease
This trial tests a device that uses a catheter to deliver energy to nerves around the pulmonary arteries, aiming to reduce high blood pressure in the lungs caused by left heart failure. It is for people with ongoing heart failure symptoms despite optimal medications.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18–85 - NCT07422688Enrolling by invitation
Using light scans to find heart artery blockages
This trial uses a special light-based scan (optical coherence tomography, or OCT) to help doctors see inside your heart arteries and find the exact blockage causing your heart attack. It may help guide treatment more precisely.
GenkAges 18 years+ - NCT06863155Recruiting
A thin heart stent for people on blood thinners
This trial tests a new type of heart stent in people who also take daily blood thinners. The stent is very thin and releases medicine over time to help keep the artery open, and the coating eventually dissolves. It may be a safer option for people on blood thinners who need a stent.
AlbaceteAges 18 years+ - NCT07081711Recruiting
Testing new heart MRI technology in volunteers
This study is testing a new way to take pictures of the heart using MRI. It is looking for healthy volunteers to help make sure the technology works correctly.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07724184Recruiting
Treating calcified heart arteries with a stent
This trial tests a way to treat hardened, calcified heart artery blockages using a stent. It may help people who have moderate blockages that haven't been treated before.
AalborgAges 18–90 - NCT03987633Recruiting
Study links health records and samples to understand health gaps
This study asks people affected by a specific illness (or their family member) to share saliva (and sometimes blood) and answer health and quality-of-life questions. The goal is to better understand and reduce health inequality by matching new information with medical records.
Wolverhampton, West MidlandsAges 6 years+ - NCT05124249Recruiting
Imaging tests to evaluate clogged heart arteries
This study looks at how well special heart imaging and pressure-based tests can evaluate coronary artery disease (clogged heart arteries). If you had testing for suspected heart artery disease, the study may help doctors compare how these measurements work.
GwangjuAges 18 years+ - NCT05347069RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin study for people with stable heart artery disease
This trial tests whether daily aspirin is safe and effective for people who have stable (chronic) coronary artery disease but cannot have procedures to open blocked arteries. It may help reduce future heart problems, while also checking for side effects and risks from aspirin.
KyotoAges 20 years+ - NCT05416385Recruiting
Stress echo scan with special contrast to study carotid plaque
This study uses a heart stress ultrasound test, plus a contrast dye, to look for new blood vessel growth inside carotid plaque (the buildup in neck arteries). It may help doctors better judge the risk of stroke and determine which people need closer care.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05617599Recruiting
Checks safety of a stent used in complex heart artery disease
This study looks at how safe and effective a specific stent (SUPRAFLEX CRUZ) is when used in real-world care for people with heart artery blockages in more than one artery. Some participants will also be selected if their heart pumping strength is reduced.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05632432Recruiting
Heart tissue grafts to help the heart after surgery
This trial tests whether transplanting tiny heart “micrografts” from the left heart chamber area can improve heart function after cardiac surgery. It is meant for people with weakened heart pumping and heart failure symptoms despite medicine.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–75 - NCT05654272Recruiting
Testing CIRC imaging technology for people with heart problems
This study is developing and testing CIRC technologies using heart imaging. You may be able to join if you’re an adult with cardiovascular (heart) disease and can safely have the MRI scans.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05788666Recruiting
GeriKit check-up for older adults after heart artery problems
This trial tests a “GeriKit” set of questions and measurements to better understand health and needs in people age 75+ after a heart attack or related procedures. It may help doctors plan more personalized care during recovery.
New York, New YorkAges 75–100 - NCT05873881RecruitingPhase 3
Colchicine and vitamin B1 for ischemic heart failure
This study tests whether colchicine and thiamine (vitamin B1) can improve outcomes in people with heart failure caused by blocked or narrowed heart arteries. It’s mainly for people with moderate-to-severe symptoms and reduced heart pumping ability.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 45 years+ - NCT05961748Recruiting
Brain and heart illness registry for adults in China
This study is a registry that collects health information from adults who have certain new heart and/or brain conditions. It may help researchers understand how these problems occur together and improve future care planning.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05996120Recruiting
Finding the best temperature during heart-lung machine surgery
This study looks at the best body temperature to use during heart surgery when a heart-lung machine is needed. You may be able to join if you are having bypass surgery or valve repair, your risk score is moderate or higher, and your surgery is not an emergency.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18 years+ - NCT06001073Recruiting
Heart and brain disease health prediction study
This study uses advanced health data to predict how heart and brain conditions may progress. It aims to help doctors provide better care for people with these diseases.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 3–80 - NCT06002932Recruiting
Comparing one-stent with drug balloon vs. two-stents for heart artery branches
This study compares two ways to treat a narrowed heart artery where a smaller branch vessel is also blocked. One approach uses a drug-coated balloon on the side branch, while the other places a second stent. The goal is to see which method works better for patients like you.
Suwon, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06033014Recruiting
New decision support tool for heart disease patients
This trial tests a new decision support tool for people with ischemic heart disease (reduced blood flow to the heart). It aims to help doctors and patients make better treatment decisions. You may be able to join if you are hospitalized for various forms of heart disease and have significant blockages found during a heart catheterization.
Copenhagen ØAges 18 years+ - NCT06047028Recruiting
