Testing blood and imaging biomarkers in abdominal aneurysm patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at blood and/or scan markers to better understand abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors predict risks and guide follow-up or treatment choices.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 or older
- You have an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and it matches one of these groups: monitored (≥40 mm), planned for EVAR, or had EVAR in the past
- You do not have an aneurysm only in the iliac artery, or from trauma, infection, or a surgical connection
- You do not have an aneurysm in the chest (thoracic aneurysm)
- You can participate in follow-up visits and understand/sign consent

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is looking at how your heartbeat and breathing affect blood flow in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It uses a special type of stent graft called Treo. The goal is to learn more so doctors can better treat AAAs.
This study uses a hand/eye pressure test (tonometry) and an ultrasound scan (duplex ultrasound) to see if they can predict future heart or blood vessel events in people with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who are planning elective surgery. It may help doctors choose the safest follow-up and treatments for you after repair.
This study uses special imaging to better measure how the aorta wall behaves in people with an enlarged aorta (an aneurysm) and in some people without an aneurysm. Results may help doctors understand aneurysm risk and plan care more precisely.
This study is testing a new approach to manage abdominal aortic aneurysms (bulges in the main belly artery). It is for people whose aneurysm is larger than 30 mm but does not have certain rare features that require different care.
This study observes small abdominal aortic aneurysms (39-49 mm) in Chinese patients to understand how they grow and change over time. It may help doctors decide when treatment is needed.
This research uses a special imaging scan (PET/CT) to take detailed pictures of inflammation in the aorta (the main blood vessel from your heart). Researchers want to understand why some people develop bulges in their aorta called aneurysms. If you have an aneurysm or are a healthy volunteer, this study may help improve how doctors detect and treat this condition.
