Heparin-Coated Stent-Graft under the microscope: new analysis of nearly 1,000 patients
NCT ID NCT05459818
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study combines data from nearly 1,000 patients who received a special stent-graft (the GORE VIABAHN with a heparin coating) for peripheral artery disease in the leg. Researchers want to see how well the device keeps arteries open over time and which patient factors affect success. The goal is to better understand who benefits most from this treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- GORE® VIABAHN® endoprosthesis with heparin bioactive surface (a stent-graft device)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this analysis could help doctors identify which patients with peripheral artery disease are most likely to benefit from this device, leading to better treatment decisions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a meta-analysis of existing studies, not a new trial. It cannot prove the device works better than other treatments, and results depend on the quality of the original studies.
