Studying rapid coronary artery disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at people whose coronary artery disease worsens quickly despite standard treatment. It compares them to those with stable disease to understand differences and improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have had a heart procedure like stenting or bypass surgery in the past.
- You are taking standard heart medicines after your last procedure.
- You have had severe chest pain or signs of heart strain that got worse within the last 6 months.
- You are not pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the study.
- You have no active cancer or other serious heart conditions.

This study compares two types of coronary artery disease: one linked to inflammation (IR-CAD) and the standard type (AS-CAD). If you have had a heart procedure and were recently hospitalized for worsening chest pain, this study may help doctors understand your condition better.
This study follows adults who have fast, unexplained re-narrowing of a coronary stent, to better understand what causes it and how to monitor it. You may help by allowing the study team to collect medical information over time.
This study compares people with very severe coronary artery disease to those without significant disease, using heart imaging data. It aims to understand what differs between extreme cases and how that information could guide future care.
This study follows people who have both coronary artery disease (narrowed heart arteries) and signs of chronic inflammation to learn more about their condition, current treatments, and outcomes. It helps doctors understand how best to care for patients like you.
This trial uses advanced imaging (OCT) and single-cell analysis to study different types of plaque in people with coronary artery disease. It aims to understand how these plaque types differ at a cellular level, which could lead to better treatments.
This study watches how people with complex or calcified heart artery disease are treated (with stents or bypass surgery) and how they do over time. It aims to learn which treatments work best for tough blockages.
