PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL DISEASE

This study is following 300 people with peripheral artery disease who received the MicroStent, a small mesh tube placed in leg arteries to improve blood flow. Researchers are tracking how well the arteries stay open over time and whether patients avoid major complications like am…

This study follows 284 people with blocked leg arteries (peripheral arterial disease) who are treated with a paclitaxel-coated balloon. The balloon is inflated inside the artery to open it and release a drug that helps prevent it from narrowing again. Researchers are tracking saf…

This study compares a new stent (Supera) to standard surgery for treating blockages in the leg's main artery. About 286 people with moderate to severe leg pain or sores will be randomly assigned to get either the stent or surgery. Researchers will check if the stent keeps the art…

This study tests whether a new drug-coated balloon (Passeo-18 Lux) is as safe and effective as an existing one (IN.PACT Admiral) for opening blocked leg arteries in people with peripheral artery disease. About 302 participants with moderate to severe symptoms are randomly assigne…

This study planned to test a special shockwave device that uses sound waves to crack calcium buildup in leg arteries before placing a stent. The goal was to improve stent fit and long-term blood flow in people with severe peripheral artery disease. However, the trial was withdraw…

This study is following 450 people with long blockages in their leg arteries who are treated with the DETOUR System, a device that creates a bypass inside the artery. The goal is to see how well it works and how safe it is in everyday medical practice. Participants are chosen by …

This study compares two treatments for complex blockages in the leg's main artery: one avoids stents by using a drug-coated balloon, the other uses a stent. About 120 people with peripheral arterial disease will be randomly assigned to one approach. The goal is to see which keeps…

This study tested whether injections of cells from donated placentas could improve blood flow and help heal foot ulcers in people with diabetes and blocked leg arteries. The trial planned to enroll about 24 adults with hard-to-heal foot sores. However, the study was withdrawn bef…

This study tests a new device called the MicroStent, a small mesh tube placed in leg arteries below the knee to keep them open. It involves 177 adults with severe peripheral artery disease who have pain at rest or non-healing sores. Half get the stent plus standard balloon treatm…

This study compares a paclitaxel-coated balloon (Legflow DCB) to a standard uncoated balloon for treating blocked leg arteries in people with peripheral artery disease. About 150 participants with moderate to severe symptoms will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments.…

This study compares a balloon coated with sirolimus (a drug) to a standard balloon for opening blocked leg arteries in people with peripheral artery disease. About 1,200 adults will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The main goal is to see if the drug-coated ball…

This study tests a special balloon coated with a drug (SELUTION SLR™ 018) to open narrowed leg arteries in people with peripheral arterial disease. About 300 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug-coated balloon or a standard uncoated balloon. The goal …

This study tests a device called SWM-831 in 81 people with moderate to severe hardening of the leg arteries (peripheral arterial disease). The device is used before balloon or stent treatment to break up calcium deposits and improve blood flow. The main goal is to see if the proc…

This study was designed to see if measuring blood flow resistance in tiny leg vessels could predict whether a limb could be saved after artery-opening procedures in people with critical limb ischemia. It planned to enroll patients with severe leg artery disease and use a special …

This study tests whether applying shockwave therapy to the calf muscles can improve blood flow and reduce pain in people with peripheral artery disease. About 138 adults with stable leg pain when walking will receive the treatment. The goal is to see if it helps them walk longer …

This study was designed to see if a device called AirGlove, which applies heat, could improve blood flow in the legs of people with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). It planned to include healthy volunteers and people with PAD who experience leg pain when walking. However, the s…

This study follows 500 people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who undergo a procedure to open blocked leg arteries. Researchers check blood and heart ultrasound before and after the procedure to find hidden heart injury. The goal is to see if certain markers can predict futu…

This study looks at how arm crank exercise (like pedaling with your arms) changes blood flow in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) compared to healthy adults. Researchers will measure blood vessel function and oxygen levels in the calf before and after exercise. The goal…

This study is collecting information from 458 people with critical limb-threatening ischemia, a severe form of peripheral artery disease that can lead to amputation. The goal is to learn how different treatments affect patients' daily lives and health outcomes. Researchers hope t…

This study was designed to see if a short-term protein-calorie restriction diet before elective vein graft surgery is practical and how it affects the body. It planned to enroll adults scheduled for non-emergency lower extremity vein bypass surgery. However, the trial was withdra…
