First seen Mar 23, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study compares a special balloon coated with a drug (Legflow DCB) to a standard balloon for opening blocked leg arteries in people with peripheral artery disease. About 150 adults with leg pain or sores will be treated and followed for a year. The goal is to see if the drug-coated balloon keeps arteries open longer and reduces the need for repeat procedures.
