Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

Researchers are testing whether a defined plant-based diet can improve blood vessel function in people with coronary artery disease. Participants will follow the diet while researchers measure changes in blood vessel health and heart rhythm over time. The goal is to see if this dietary approach can help manage the disease.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A defined plant-based diet
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a dietary approach to help manage coronary artery disease and improve blood vessel health.
What could go wrong
This is an early, small trial, and diet changes can be hard to stick with. The results may not apply to everyone with heart disease.
