New stent aims to tackle multiple blocked arteries in one go
NCT ID NCT06663696
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a special stent called Supraflex Cruz in 1000 people who have blockages in more than one heart artery. The stent is coated with a drug (sirolimus) that slowly releases to help keep the artery open, and the coating dissolves over time. Researchers want to see if it is safe and works well in real-world patients who need multiple stents.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- sirolimus-eluting stent
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this stent could provide a safe and effective way to treat multiple blocked arteries in one procedure, reducing the need for repeat surgeries.
- What could go wrong
- This is a registry study, not a randomized trial, so results may be less definitive. Stents carry risks like blood clots or re-narrowing, and long-term outcomes are still being tracked.
