Recruiting studies
- NCT07175077Recruiting
7T MRI scan to find tiny brain metastases in small-cell lung cancer
This trial uses a powerful 7T MRI scanner to detect very small brain metastases in people with small-cell lung cancer who choose not to get preventive brain radiation. The goal is to see if this advanced scan can find hidden spots in the brain that regular MRIs miss.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06692140Recruiting
Comparing two types of stents for heart artery treatment
This trial compares a newer type of stent (with very thin struts and a coating that dissolves) to a standard stent in people having a heart artery procedure. It aims to see if the new stent works as well or better.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT04212494Recruiting
Aspirating clot during heart procedure for certain heart attacks
This trial studies whether removing (“aspirating”) a blood clot during an emergency heart procedure works better for people having a specific type of heart attack with a large clot burden. It may help improve blood flow after treatment, but it is only for patients who meet several timing and safety conditions.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06710210Recruiting
Hybrid scaffold-balloon vs standard stent for long blockages
This trial tests a new way to treat long, narrow blockages in heart arteries. Instead of using a standard permanent metal stent, doctors will combine a temporary scaffold with a special balloon that releases medication. The goal is to see if this approach works as well as or better than the usual metal stent.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT05967663Recruiting
Staged vs same-day heart artery repair after a heart attack
This study compares doing all heart artery procedures right away versus doing part of them later in people who had a heart attack and have blockage in more than one artery. It aims to see which approach is safer and works better after the initial emergency procedure.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04634240Recruiting
Staged heart bypass plus TAVR versus TAVR alone
This study compares doing a staged coronary bypass (revascularization) along with a valve procedure (TAVR) versus doing TAVR and medical treatment alone. It aims to see which approach better helps people with both aortic valve narrowing and coronary artery disease.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT05651802Recruiting
Brain MRI follow-up with or without preventive scans in SCLC
This study tests whether adding a preventive brain procedure (PCI) to standard follow-up brain MRIs helps people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer stay disease-free longer. It compares “MRI only” versus “MRI plus PCI” after the cancer has fully responded to initial treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05812963Recruiting
IVUS vs FFR to guide stents after heart attacks
This trial compares two ways of measuring blood flow inside the heart arteries (IVUS vs FFR) to help decide which non–culprit artery narrowings need a stent after a recent heart attack. It may help doctors choose the best targets for PCI and avoid unnecessary procedures.
GwangjuAges 19 years+ - NCT06564909RecruitingPhase 2
L-carnitine for heart muscle protection after a heart attack
This trial tests whether the supplement L-carnitine, given during a heart attack procedure, can reduce heart muscle damage. If you are having a STEMI heart attack and are getting angioplasty, you may be able to join.
CairoAges 18–75 - NCT07090382Enrolling by invitation
Predicting shock risk in heart attack patients
This study uses an AI tool to predict which patients with a heart attack might develop cardiogenic shock, a serious complication where the heart can't pump enough blood. It aims to help doctors identify high-risk patients early.
BratislavaAges 18 years+ - NCT01311323Recruiting
Testing heart procedures to fully open blocked coronary arteries
This trial compares different ways to treat serious heart artery blockages in people with a recent heart attack or unstable chest pain. It aims to see which revascularization approach works best when doctors think the heart arteries can be fully treated.
Chrzanów, MalopolskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07366684Recruiting
Heart attack study for adults 75 and older
This study looks at how frailty and other health factors affect recovery in people 75 and older who have had a heart attack or unstable chest pain. It may help doctors better understand who is at higher risk and how to improve care for older adults.
NišAges 75 years+ - NCT07269366Recruiting
Surgery vs stents for heart disease with weak heart pump
This trial compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stents (PCI)—in people whose heart pumps weakly (LVEF 40% or less). It aims to find which method works better for chest pain or recent heart issues.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06218485Recruiting
Comparing two methods to guide heart stenting
This study compares two ways to guide stenting for blocked heart arteries: one uses a pressure wire (FFR) to measure blood flow, and the other uses ultrasound (IVUS) plus a computer estimate of blood flow. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes after stent placement.
BeijingAges 19 years+ - NCT05527717RecruitingPhase 4
PCI vs strategy for heart attack shock needing ECMO
This study looks at the best way to reopen blocked heart arteries (using a stent procedure) in people who had a heart attack complicated by severe shock and need a life-support machine called VA-ECMO. It may help improve outcomes by testing which revascularization approach works best for multi-vessel blockages.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05230446Recruiting
Testing full stent treatment for heart artery blockages
This study looks at how well doctors can treat multiple blocked heart arteries using a specific drug-eluting stent, aiming to fully open them. It may help patients whose blockage pattern fits the study, but it does not include certain high-risk or special cases.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–85 - NCT06075602Recruiting
Complex and calcified coronary artery disease: a registry study
This study watches how people with complex or calcified heart artery disease are treated (with stents or bypass surgery) and how they do over time. It aims to learn which treatments work best for tough blockages.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT07454070Recruiting
Testing ear nerve stimulation for depression after a heart attack
This trial tests if a gentle, non-invasive ear stimulation device can help relieve depression in people who have had a heart attack and a stent placed. It aims to offer a drug-free option for those who choose not to take antidepressants or see a therapist.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pci patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 66 recruiting pci patients 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 pci patients 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 pci patients 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.
