Finding noninvasive markers of graft injury after heart transplant
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks for noninvasive markers (like blood or urine tests) that can show if a heart transplant is being injured. It aims to make monitoring safer and easier for children and adults with congenital heart disease who have had a transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have congenital heart disease (a heart problem you're born with).
- You have had a heart transplant or are scheduled to have one.
- You agree to follow up at the study center in Bologna, Italy.
- You (or your parent/guardian) are willing to sign a consent form.

This study checks if looking at DNA in your blood can help doctors see how well your stem cell transplant is working and catch any problems early. It is for people with blood cancers getting a transplant from a donor.
This study is following people who have had a liver, kidney, heart, or lung transplant. It will look for markers in your blood that might help predict how you do in the short and long term after transplant.
This Swedish study tests whether a simple blood test can detect early signs that your body is rejecting a transplanted heart. The test looks for DNA fragments in your blood that may signal rejection before symptoms appear, potentially helping doctors catch problems sooner.
This trial is testing whether a simple blood test that looks for donor DNA can help doctors take better care of kidney transplant patients. It may help detect early signs of rejection and guide treatment decisions.
This study looks at the genes of people who are getting a heart transplant at our center. By understanding your DNA, researchers hope to learn more about how to improve transplant care.
This study collects and shares anonymous information about adults being considered for a heart transplant because of a congenital (from birth) heart problem or an inherited heart muscle condition. The goal is to better understand these patients and support research that may improve care.
