New balloon treatment for heart disease under study
NCT ID NCT06535854
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a special balloon coated with a drug (paclitaxel) to open blocked heart arteries. About 1,200 adults with coronary artery disease will receive either the Prevail balloon or another similar balloon. The goal is to see if the Prevail balloon is safe and works well at keeping arteries open for at least a year.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- paclitaxel-coated balloon catheter
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for people with narrowed heart arteries, potentially reducing the need for repeat procedures.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study, so results may not confirm long-term benefits. Risks include allergic reactions to the drug or device, and the balloon may not work as well as expected.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
