What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

Researchers at one hospital are observing 400 people with arteriosclerosis obliterans, a condition where plaque blocks arteries in the legs. The study compares four common procedures: bypass surgery, bare metal stents, plain balloon angioplasty, and drug-coated balloons. Over three years, the team tracks limb salvage, blood flow through treated vessels, major limb events, and deaths to see which approach works best and at what cost.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Leg artery procedures: bypass surgery, bare metal stents, plain balloon angioplasty, and drug-coated balloons
What this could lead to
If one approach clearly outperforms the others, doctors could choose the most effective and cost-efficient procedure for people with blocked leg arteries.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results from one hospital may not apply everywhere, and patients who receive different procedures may differ in ways that skew the comparison.
