NCT ID NCT07010354
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study is testing a covered stent called BeFlow to treat narrowed or blocked iliac arteries in the pelvis. Researchers will monitor 100 patients to see how well the stent restores blood flow and how safe it is. The goal is to improve walking ability and reduce pain caused by poor circulation.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this stent could offer a reliable option to restore blood flow in blocked iliac arteries, reducing symptoms like leg pain and improving mobility.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may be less definitive. Risks include stent-related complications like re-blockage or blood clots.
