First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study tested a special balloon coated with sirolimus, a drug that helps keep arteries open, in 34 people with peripheral artery disease (narrowed leg arteries). The goal was to see if the balloon is safe and works well to improve blood flow and reduce symptoms like leg pain. Participants had one or two blockages in their leg arteries and were followed for six months to measure how much the artery stayed open.
