Heart artery procedure study for people with kidney disease
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses a special ultrasound camera inside the heart's arteries to guide stent placement for people with chronic kidney disease. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes compared to standard methods.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chronic kidney disease with a kidney function test (eGFR) below 60.
- You have a new blockage in a heart artery that needs a drug-coated metal stent.
- You have no recent heart attack (STEMI) in the last 24 hours or emergency angiography.
- You are not pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
- You have not had a heart stent procedure in the past 12 months.

This trial tests whether using a special ultrasound camera inside the artery (IVUS) to guide stent placement can improve outcomes for people with serious kidney disease. The goal is to use less contrast dye and protect the kidneys better.
This study compares two ways of guiding a heart stent procedure: using information from a special angiography scan versus using standard practice. It may help your care team choose the best treatment to improve heart outcomes after stenting.
This study checks how heart and kidney health are related in people with kidney disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. It is a single visit with tests to see if certain heart problems are common in these conditions.
This trial studies a heart procedure that uses a special camera to guide where to place a drug-coated stent in an artery with heavy calcium. It may help improve how well the stent fits and works for people with certain types of coronary artery blockages.
This trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
This trial looks at people with a blockage in a heart artery of 50% or more. It tests a new way to check the blockage using a special CT scan. This could help decide the best treatment to prevent future heart problems.
