Healthy volunteers help unlock genetic secrets of heart disease
NCT ID NCT04931498
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how two specific genes, SWAP70 and GMPR, may influence the risk of heart disease. Researchers will analyze blood samples and health data from 100 healthy volunteers who are part of a larger research resource. The goal is to better understand the biological mechanisms behind these genetic factors, which could eventually lead to new treatments or prevention strategies.
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 study could improve understanding of how certain genes influence heart disease risk and point toward new drug targets.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with only 100 healthy volunteers, so findings may not apply to the general population or lead directly to treatments.
