New stent graft aims to restore blood flow in legs without major surgery

NCT ID NCT04130737

First seen Jul 10, 2026 ยท Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This trial evaluates a device called the TORUS Stent Graft, a mesh tube placed inside the leg artery to keep it open in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). The study includes about 188 adults with blockages in the thigh or behind-the-knee arteries. The goal is to see if the stent graft safely improves blood flow and reduces the need for further procedures or amputation.
