- NCT06433011Recruiting
New clot-busting method for pulmonary embolism
This study tests a new way of delivering a clot-dissolving medicine for people with a serious but not immediately life-threatening pulmonary embolism. The goal is to see if giving the medicine as small bursts directly into the clot can help the heart recover faster.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT05050617Recruiting
Ultrasound in the ER to predict risks in pulmonary embolism
This trial checks whether a bedside ultrasound done in the emergency room can help predict which people with an acute pulmonary embolism are more likely to have bad outcomes. If you qualify, your care team will compare ultrasound findings with your later results to see if it can guide treatment decisions sooner.
York, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04798261Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after clot removal for pulmonary embolism
This study tracks how patients do long-term after having a clot in the lung treated with a device called the Indigo Aspiration System. It aims to better understand safety and outcomes over time.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05591118RecruitingPhase 3
Catheter treatment to remove blood clots in the lungs
This Phase 3 trial tests a catheter-based procedure to remove a lung blood clot (pulmonary embolism) and reduce strain on the heart. It may help people who have specific CT scan signs of right-heart strain.
Wynnewood, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06588634Recruiting
A study of a catheter device for high-risk pulmonary embolism
This trial tests a new treatment for people with a severe, high-risk pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lung). It uses a catheter device to remove the clot and help the heart work better.

What taking part in a pulmonary embolism study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
