Can a simple blood test and CT scan predict bypass success?
NCT ID NCT07628270
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study follows 100 people who had heart bypass surgery guided by a special CT scan, to see if imaging details and a blood fat called Lp(a) can predict how well they do afterward. Researchers will track symptoms, quality of life, and major heart events like heart attacks or strokes. The goal is to learn if these tests can help personalize care for people with complex coronary artery disease.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better predict which patients will benefit most from bypass surgery and guide future prevention strategies using Lp(a) levels.
What could go wrong
This is an observational sub-study, not a treatment trial. It may not find clear links between imaging markers or Lp(a) and patient outcomes, and results may not apply to all heart disease patients.
