Vibrating guidewire for chronic heart artery blockages
This trial tests a special vibrating guidewire to help open heart arteries that have been completely blocked for a long time, when standard wires have failed. It may help you if you have a stubborn blockage requiring a gentle approach.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04944615Recruiting
IVUS-guided stent placement for blocked heart artery using longer guidance
This trial compares two ways to place a stent (a small mesh tube) for a completely blocked heart artery: using an IVUS camera inside the artery versus using a standard x-ray approach. It may help people get better heart outcomes by improving how accurately the stent is placed in long-term blockages.

Haikou, HainanAges 18 years+ - NCT06977009Recruiting
Does tooth grinding relief help with post-dental pain?
This study tests whether reducing a tooth's contact with its opposite tooth before root canal treatment can lower pain after the procedure. It's for people with a dead nerve in a back molar that needs a crown.

Brain stimulation to boost memory, movement, and mood in older adults
This study tests whether high-frequency electrical stimulation of the brain can help improve thinking, movement, and mood in older adults who may or may not have early signs of memory decline. Participants will get sessions of stimulation and complete thinking and walking tasks.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 65–89 - NCT06060912Recruiting
Comparing two heart devices to prevent stroke in atrial fibrillation
This study compares two devices (LAmbre and AMPLATZER Amulet) that are placed in the heart to prevent strokes in people with atrial fibrillation who cannot take blood thinners. If you join, you will be randomly assigned to get one of the two devices.
Munich, BavariaAges 18–100 - NCT05805111Recruiting
BeGraft stents for blocked aorta and iliac arteries
This trial tests a specific stent system (BeGraft) to improve blood flow through the aorta and iliac arteries in people with symptomatic peripheral artery disease. It may help reduce symptoms and improve leg circulation, based on the study device’s ability to fit your artery anatomy.
BerlinAges 18–99 - NCT06957613Recruiting
A Registry for Chronic Total Heart Artery Blockages
This study is collecting information on people who have a complete blockage in a heart artery (a chronic total occlusion) and who are scheduled for a procedure to open it up. The goal is to learn more about the treatment and outcomes for these patients.
Bad Segeberg, Schleswig-HolsteinAges 18–100 - NCT06887699Recruiting
AI ECG for heart attack care in emergency
This trial is testing whether using artificial intelligence to read ECGs in the emergency department helps doctors better manage heart attacks, especially under a new payment system. It may help speed up treatment and improve care.
Kaohsiung City, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT06843356Recruiting
Endovascular treatment for worsening mild stroke with basilar artery blockage
This trial tests a procedure to open a blocked artery in the back of the brain (basilar artery) for people who had a mild stroke that later got worse. If you are eligible, you may receive this treatment up to 24 hours after your symptoms worsen.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06627686Recruiting
Predicting successful breathing tube removal in brain injury patients
This study tests if simple breathing tests can predict whether a patient with a traumatic brain injury will successfully breathe on their own after a breathing tube is removed. The goal is to make the removal process safer.
Tanta, MahalaAges 18–65 - NCT07345702Recruiting
Endovascular therapy for large core posterior stroke
This trial tests endovascular therapy (a procedure to remove a clot through a tube in an artery) versus medical management for people with a severe stroke due to a blockage in the back part of the brain (basilar artery) and a large area of brain damage. The goal is to see if the procedure improves outcomes compared to medication alone.

Endovascular therapy for M2 segment stroke
This study tests whether a minimally invasive procedure to remove a blood clot from a specific branch of a brain artery (the M2 segment) helps people recover from a stroke better than standard care alone. It is for people who have had a moderate to severe stroke within the past 24 hours and could not get clot-dissolving medicine or it didn't work.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for occlusion?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 338 recruiting occlusion 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 occlusion 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 occlusion 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.
