Vasculitis PET scan trial for heart disease risk
Part of Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This trial uses a special PET scan to look at inflammation in blood vessels and check heart disease risk in people with active ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). It may help doctors understand how to better manage heart health during treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new treatment called CT1192 for a type of blood vessel inflammation called ANCA-associated vasculitis. It is for people whose standard treatments have not worked or whose disease has come back. The goal is to see if CT1192 is safe and helps control the disease.
This study uses a special PET/CT scan (called FAPI) to look at inflammation in people with ANCA-associated vasculitis and interstitial lung disease. It may help doctors see how active the disease is and guide treatment.
This study tests a new type of PET/CT scanner (a imaging machine that takes detailed pictures of blood vessels) in patients newly diagnosed with large vessel vasculitis, a condition where large blood vessels become inflamed. The goal is to improve how doctors diagnose and monitor this condition.
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.
This Phase 2 trial uses a PET scan to study how local inflammation inside the heart affects the heart’s electrical wiring after a minimally invasive aortic valve procedure. The results may help doctors better predict or prevent rhythm and conduction problems after treatment.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for signs of inflammation in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors understand which aneurysms are at risk of growing or rupturing.
