New device aims to prevent amputation in patients with no other options
NCT ID NCT05313165
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a device called the LimFlow Stent Graft System for people with late-stage chronic limb-threatening ischemia, a severe form of peripheral artery disease where blood flow to the leg is critically low. The device creates a new connection between a vein and artery to reroute blood around blockages. The main goal is to see if this can help patients avoid major amputation and survive longer. The trial plans to enroll 100 participants across multiple centers.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- LimFlow Stent Graft System (a device that creates a new channel between a vein and artery in the leg)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new way to save the legs of people with severe blockages who have no other options, avoiding amputation.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-arm study with no comparison group, so results may be less definitive. The procedure is new and carries risks like infection, bleeding, or device failure.
