New balloon treatment may shorten blood thinner use for heart patients
NCT ID NCT06321757
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a paclitaxel-coated balloon to open small coronary arteries in people with heart disease who also have a high risk of bleeding. About 501 participants will receive the balloon treatment and then take blood thinners for either the standard duration or just 7 days. The goal is to see if the balloon works well and if a shorter course of blood thinners is safe.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
paclitaxel-coated balloon
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a drug-coated balloon with just 7 days of blood thinners is safe and effective for people with small heart arteries and high bleeding risk.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may be less definitive. The short blood thinner regimen might still carry bleeding or clotting risks.
