New catheter device tested for stubborn leg vein blockages
NCT ID NCT07529756
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This observational study will track 87 people who are already scheduled to receive treatment with the Recana Thrombectomy Catheter System for blocked veins in their legs. The goal is to see how safe the device is and how well it works at clearing the blockages during the procedure. Participants will be followed for one year to monitor for any major complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Recana Thrombectomy Catheter System
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this registry could show that the Recana device is a safe and effective tool for clearing blocked veins in the legs, potentially improving blood flow and reducing symptoms.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early observational study with only 87 participants, not a randomized trial. It cannot prove the device works better than other treatments, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
INCLUSION CRITERA: A. Native Vessel: 1. INC-1: Subject is 18 years or older 2. INC-2: Proximal lower extremity obstruction/occlusion involving the femoral, common femoral, iliac veins, or inferior vena cava (IVC), alone or in combination that in the opinion of the investigator, treatment with the Recana would benefit the patient 3. INC-3: Recana Thrombectomy Catheter System must enter vasculature 4. INC-4: Willing and able to provide written informed consent B. In-Stent Restenosis: 1. INC-1: Subject is 18 years or older 2. INC-2: Subjects with stents implanted greater than 6 weeks prior to index procedure 3. INC-3: Location of thrombosed stents in proximal lower extremity deep vein segments including common femoral, external iliac, common iliac vein, or inferior vena cava alone or in combination that in the opinion of the investigator treatment with the Recana would benefit the patient 4. INC-4: Recana Thrombectomy Catheter System must enter vasculature 5. INC-5: Willing and able to provide written informed consent EXCLUSION CRITERA A. Native Vessel: 1. EXC-1: IVC aplasia/hypoplasia or other congenital anatomic anomalies of the IVC or iliac veins 2. EXC-2: IVC filter in place at the time of index procedure that, in the judgment of the investigator, may interfere with the procedure 3. EXC-3: Congenital anatomic anomalies of the iliac veins that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude treatment with the Recana 4. EXC-4: Heparin allergy or hypersensitivity that cannot be adequately managed with alternate anticoagulant during or after the procedure, or prior diagnosis of HIT (Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia) 5. EXC-5: Severe, life-threatening allergy to iodine or contrast dye 6. EXC-6: Any contraindication to anticoagulants or antiplatelets that, in the opinion of the Investigator, cannot be medically managed throughout the study period 7. EXC-7: Life expectancy less than 1 year 8. EXC-8: Chronic non-ambulatory status such as long-term wheelchair requirement or bedridden status 9. EXC-9: Known hypercoagulable states that, in the opinion of the investigator, cannot be medically managed throughout the study period 10. EXC-10: Inability to secure venous access and cross lesion 11. EXC-11: Subject has any condition for which, in the opinion of the Investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the subject 12. EXC-12: Current active participation in another investigational drug or device study in which the primary endpoint has not been analyzed B. In-Stent Restenosis: 1. EXC-1: Exposed stents with broken struts, significantly deformed struts, struts protruding into the vessel 2. EXC-2: Stent failure caused by undersizing or malapposition of the stent(s) \[For example, the segment of a stent in the iliac vein that is not wall apposed or cannot be apposed to the wall after balloon dilation is excluded. The segment of a stent that extends into the IVC that is not wall apposed would not be excluded.\] 3. EXC-3: Stents compressed to \<6mm that remain \<6mm after balloon dilation 4. EXC-4: IVC filter in place at the time of index procedure that, in the judgment of the investigator, may interfere with the procedure 5. EXC-5: Congenital anatomic anomalies of the iliac veins that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude treatment with the Recana 6. EXC-6: Heparin allergy or hypersensitivity that cannot be adequately managed with alternate anticoagulant during or after the procedure, or prior diagnosis of HIT (Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia) 7. EXC-7: Severe, life-threatening allergy to iodine or contrast dye 8. EXC-8: Any contraindication to anticoagulants or antiplatelets that, in the opinion of the Investigator, cannot be medically managed throughout the study period 9. EXC-9: Life expectancy less than 1 year 10. EXC-10: Chronic non-ambulatory status such as long-term wheelchair requirement or bedridden status 11. EXC-11: Known hypercoagulable states that, in the opinion of the Investigator, cannot be medically managed throughout the study period 12. EXC-12: Inability to secure venous access and cross lesion 13. EXC-13: Subject has any condition for which, in the opinion of the Investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the subject 14. EXC-14: Current active participation in another investigational drug or device study in which the primary endpoint has not been analyzed
