Heart mapping test for stable coronary artery disease treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive heart mapping technique can guide treatment for stable coronary artery disease, potentially avoiding more expensive or invasive tests. You may join if you have stable angina and a blockage of 50-90% in a major heart artery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have stable coronary artery disease (stable chest pain or discomfort).
- A CT scan shows a 50-90% blockage in at least one major heart artery (2.5 mm or larger).
- If the blockage is 50-69%, you must have typical or atypical chest pain (at least 2 out of 3 features: lasts less than 15 minutes, triggered by activity or stress, relieved by rest or nitrates).
- You have not had a prior heart attack, stent, bypass surgery, or known blockage of 50% or more in a major artery.
- You have not had certain stress tests (exercise ECG, stress echo, stress SPECT, or stress CMR) before joining.
- You do not have a metal implant (like pacemaker, artificial valve, or orthopedic plate), severe heart failure, complex arrhythmias, or claustrophobia.

This trial tests a special wireless pressure catheter to see how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart are working. It may help people who have chest pain but don't have major blockages in their main heart arteries.
This study looks at real-world outcomes for people with narrowed heart arteries (coronary artery disease). It may include those treated with stents (PCI) or medicines. Doctors will use a special computer tool to measure the severity of blockages and track health over time.
This trial studies whether a CT heart scan (CCTA) can better guide treatment decisions for people with stable chest pain caused by blocked heart arteries. It may help your care team choose the next best step based on scan results.
This trial is testing a new magnetic heart scan (called MCG) to see if it can better detect when your heart isn't getting enough blood. It is for people with stable chest discomfort and a previous heart CT that showed moderate blockages in the arteries.
This study tests a new magnetic heart scan (MCG) to see if it can better detect blocked arteries causing chest pain or heart attacks. It may help doctors decide the best treatment for you.
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.
