Recruiting studies
- NCT06590467Recruiting
Abbott heart device registry study
This registry is a large, ongoing study that collects information about Abbott heart devices used in routine care. It helps doctors learn how well these devices work and how patients are doing over time, without changing your treatment plan.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06203873Recruiting
Comparing biodegradable vs. metal heart-hole closures for migraine
This trial compares two types of devices (biodegradable vs. metal) to close a small hole in the heart (PFO) in people who have migraine not controlled by usual treatments. It aims to see which device works better to reduce migraine attacks.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06120270Recruiting
CeraFlex PFO closure study for migraine or stroke
This study tests a device called CeraFlex PFO Occluder to close a small hole in the heart (PFO) that may be causing migraines or strokes. If you have a PFO with related symptoms, the device might help prevent future events.
BremenAges 18–85 - NCT05387954RecruitingPhase 3
PFO closure or blood thinners after stroke in ages 60–80
This trial studies the best way to prevent another stroke after a recent stroke in people ages 60 to 80 who have a “PFO” heart connection. It compares closing the PFO vs taking mouth blood-thinners or antiplatelet medicine, based on what your doctors determine is safest for you.
AmiensAges 60–80 - NCT04339699Recruiting
PFO closure comparison trial for cryptogenic stroke
This trial studies ways to close a patent foramen ovale (PFO) to help prevent another stroke in people whose prior stroke had an unknown cause. If you qualify, you may receive one of the PFO closure approaches the study is comparing.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patent foramen ovale?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 29 recruiting patent foramen ovale 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 patent foramen ovale 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 patent foramen ovale 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.
