Heart transplant, cholesterol, and organ rejection study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether changes in blood fats (cholesterol and triglycerides) after a heart transplant are linked to the risk of organ rejection. It may help doctors better monitor and protect your new heart.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a heart transplant.
- You are 18 years or older.
- Before your transplant, you had symptoms of heart failure for at least 6 months.
- You are willing to give your informed consent to join the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses tiny particles called extracellular vesicles (which cells release) to check for signs of organ rejection after a heart transplant, aiming for a safer and less invasive alternative to biopsies.
This trial is studying whether a blood test that measures small molecules called microRNAs can help doctors personalize the medicines used to prevent rejection after a heart transplant. If you qualify, you would help researchers learn how to better match immunosuppression to each patient's needs.
This study uses advanced heart imaging and blood tests to detect a type of rejection that can happen after a heart transplant. It may help doctors diagnose antibody-mediated rejection earlier and more accurately.
This study looks at factors that affect heart health after a liver transplant. It may help doctors better predict and manage heart problems in people with end-stage liver disease who are getting a new liver.
This study looks at changes in blood and heart biopsy samples to help detect or understand transplant rejection. You may benefit by contributing to research that could improve future rejection screening and care.
This trial looks at how metabolism changes after a heart transplant and whether those changes affect your long-term health and recovery. It is for people who are planning to have or have already had a heart transplant.
