NCT ID NCT06959524

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study compares a drug-coated balloon to standard stent treatment for people with coronary artery disease. About 1,600 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the balloon or a stent during a procedure to open blocked heart arteries. The goal is to see if the balloon works as well as stents in preventing future heart problems, while possibly avoiding the need for a permanent implant.
