- NCT05786131Recruiting
Stent treatment: fix all blocked arteries vs culprit only
This trial compares two ways of doing a stent procedure in people who had an NSTEMI heart attack: fixing all significant blockages versus fixing only the “culprit” blockage. It may help find which approach is safer and more effective for preventing complications.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT05807841Recruiting
AI ultrasound during stent placement in heart artery blockages
This trial tests an artificial-intelligence tool that uses a heart ultrasound to help guide stent treatment. It may help doctors choose the best way to treat blockages and improve stent results for people with symptoms from reduced blood flow to the heart.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT05841745Recruiting
Registry of robotic heart procedure for blocked coronary arteries
This registry collects real-world information about people having a robotic-assisted heart procedure (PCI) for blocked coronary arteries. It may help doctors understand how well this approach works for different heart conditions.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT05853419Recruiting
Robotic procedure for opening blocked heart arteries
This study tests a robotic system to help doctors perform a procedure (PCI/angioplasty) to open blocked heart arteries. You may be eligible if you need this procedure and your anatomy is suitable, and if you can give informed consent.
AntwerpAges 18–120 - NCT05916898Recruiting
Shockwave treatment after difficult stent expansion
This registry studies how well shockwave therapy works when a previously placed heart stent does not expand well, especially when the artery is quite calcified. Your care team would use it after other tools to prepare the blockage have not worked.
Legnica, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18–99 - NCT05955365RecruitingPhase 4
Single anticoagulant blood thinner after stent in atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether taking a single “P2Y12 inhibitor” blood thinner (instead of multiple medicines) is safe and effective after you get a coronary stent. It’s for people with atrial fibrillation who need long-term blood thinning and have recently had a successful stent procedure.
HasseltAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06168422Recruiting
Stent study for elderly with severe artery calcium
This study tests a way to open severely hardened arteries in people aged 60 and older using a special tube (stent). It may help if you have complex blockages and are a candidate for angioplasty.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 60 years+ - NCT06182683Recruiting
OCT-Guided vs. FFR-Guided Stent Placement in Heart Disease
This trial compares two imaging and pressure tests used during stent placement to see which helps improve blood flow better in people with chest pain or a recent heart attack.
SeoulAges 19 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+ - NCT06255678Recruiting
Angio-based check of heart artery treatment effect
This trial tests if special software can check the result of a balloon or stent procedure by looking at the X-ray movie of your heart arteries. It may help doctors decide if more treatment is needed.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06284057Recruiting
Culotte stent technique study for Y-shaped heart blockages
This trial studies two different ways of placing stents in Y-shaped blockages in the heart's arteries. It aims to find which technique works best for people who need two stents in that area.
Legnica, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06353594Recruiting
Fewer stents vs usual stents for STEMI heart attack
This study compares using fewer stents versus the usual number of stents during emergency angioplasty for a severe heart attack (STEMI). It aims to see if a less-is-more approach is safe and effective.
Huelva, HuelvaAges 18 years+ - NCT06399692RecruitingPhase 3
Heart treatment study for women with blocked arteries
This trial is comparing two common heart procedures—bypass surgery (CABG) and stents (PCI)—to see which works better for women with blockages in multiple heart arteries. It aims to find the best treatment for women, who are often underrepresented in heart research.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06400290Recruiting
Balloon test to find which artery causes chest pain
This study tests a new way to find which blocked heart arteries are causing your chest pain. During a stent procedure, doctors will briefly block each artery to see which one triggers your symptoms. This might help them decide which blockages to treat.
BasildonAges 18 years+ - NCT06414551Recruiting
Calcium on CT scan and heart blockage procedure outcomes
This study looks at whether calcium buildup seen on a heart CT scan affects the success of opening a completely blocked artery. It may help guide future treatment for people with similar blockages.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges 18 years+ - NCT06451146Recruiting
Orbital atherectomy for calcified heart blockages
This trial studies a procedure called orbital atherectomy to treat hardened calcium deposits in heart arteries. It aims to help people with moderately to severely calcified blockages.
Legnica, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06472908RecruitingPhase 3
Colchicine after stent procedure for heart disease
This trial tests whether colchicine (a medicine used for gout) can help prevent heart problems after a stent procedure (PCI). It's for people who are in the hospital getting a stent and follow standard heart care.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18–80 - NCT07596706Recruiting
Comparing two stent techniques for left main branch blockages
This trial compares two ways of placing a stent at the point where the main left artery splits into two branches. It is for people who have a blockage in the very beginning of one of those branches, and it uses advanced drug-eluting stents to see which method works better.
Istanbul, Please SelectAges 18–85 - NCT06506448Recruiting
Studying non-blocked arteries after a heart attack
This study looks at arteries in the heart that aren't the one that caused the heart attack. It uses a special CT scan to understand these arteries better in people who have already had a procedure to open the blocked artery.
Bournemouth, DorsetAges 18–85 - NCT06509893RecruitingPhase 4
Ticagrelor alone after stent placement
This study tests if a single blood thinner (ticagrelor) works well enough after getting a heart stent, instead of the usual two blood thinners. It may simplify your daily medication routine.
Shiraz, FarsAges 20–80 - NCT06533358RecruitingPhase 2
Testing MT1002 for heart attack patients getting a stent
This study tests an investigational medicine called MT1002 in people who have had a heart attack and are about to get a stent (PCI). The goal is to see if MT1002 helps prevent further heart problems.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06545448Recruiting
Study of planned angioplasty in stable heart disease
This study looks at whether planned angioplasties (a procedure to open blocked heart arteries) are done appropriately for people with long-term stable heart disease. It aims to help doctors make better decisions for patients like you.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT06558474Recruiting
Optimizing angioplasty with balloon expansion after stent placement
This trial looks at a technique called post-dilatation, where a balloon is used after placing a stent to make sure it's fully open. It may help people who are having angioplasty (a procedure to open blocked heart arteries). Doctors want to see if using this step more often leads to better results.
