Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06319339RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Studying a drug to improve walking in peripheral artery disease
This trial tests whether a drug called diroximel fumarate (Vumerity) can improve blood flow and walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). It compares people with PAD to healthy volunteers of the same age.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 50–75 - NCT06182397Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for leg artery blockages below the knee
This trial tests a special balloon coated with sirolimus (a drug that helps prevent arteries from re-closing) versus a standard balloon for opening blocked arteries below the knee in people with severe leg pain or foot wounds. The goal is to see if the drug-coated balloon works better to keep the artery open longer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 21 years+ - NCT05916950Recruiting
Study of a new treatment for blocked leg arteries
This trial studies a device-based treatment approach for people with blocked (narrowed or fully blocked) arteries in the thigh or behind the knee that reduce blood flow to the leg. It may help improve blood flow and walking ability, but you must meet specific artery and imaging requirements.
St. Helena, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05880641Recruiting
Shockwave balloon treatment for very hard, blocked iliac arteries
This trial tests a device called Shockwave M5+/L6 intravascular lithotripsy to help deliver stent grafts when the iliac (pelvic) arteries are extremely calcified and hard to access. It may help people who are being evaluated for endovascular (through-the-blood-vessel) treatment but whose anatomy makes standard access difficult.
Ancona, AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT05811364Recruiting
Stent versus bare-metal treatment for blocked leg arteries
This study compares a new balloon-expandable stent to standard bare-metal stenting to treat complex blockages in the iliac arteries (main blood vessels to the legs). It may help people with symptoms like leg pain with walking, pain at rest, or minor tissue injury by improving blood flow and reducing repeat procedures.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05628948Recruiting
Donate blood for a heart and metabolism research biobank
This study builds a “biobank,” which is a collection of blood and related samples, to support future research on heart and metabolic (sugar/body-fat) conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future prevention and treatments.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05145478Recruiting
Real-world outcomes after Shockwave treatment for blocked leg artery
This study follows what happens in real life after using Shockwave’s device (intravascular lithotripsy) to treat a hard, calcified blockage in the common femoral artery, then completing standard treatment. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit and what results to expect.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04584632Recruiting
Stent-like device for blocked leg arteries in the thigh or knee
This trial studies a new stent-like vascular scaffold to improve blood flow in people with symptomatic blockage in the thigh/knee artery. It may help reduce symptoms from narrowed or blocked arteries, but you must meet several artery and health requirements.
Sydney, New South WalesAges Any age - NCT03791970Recruiting
Compare stent post-dilation using drug balloon or regular balloon
This study looks at whether using a drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus a regular balloon (POBA) right after placing a stent works better in artery blockages in the thigh/knee area. It may help improve blood flow and reduce the chance the artery narrows again.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05307263Recruiting
Atherectomy plus drug balloon versus drug balloon alone
This study compares two ways to treat complex blockages in the thigh/knee artery: using atherectomy followed by a medicated balloon versus using a medicated balloon by itself. It may help your care team learn which approach works best to open the artery and improve leg symptoms.
SeoulAges 19–85 - NCT05805111Recruiting
BeGraft stents for blocked aorta and iliac arteries
This trial tests a specific stent system (BeGraft) to improve blood flow through the aorta and iliac arteries in people with symptomatic peripheral artery disease. It may help reduce symptoms and improve leg circulation, based on the study device’s ability to fit your artery anatomy.
BerlinAges 18–99 - NCT07348640RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new MRI dye for blocked blood vessels
This trial tests a new MRI contrast dye (gadopiclenol) to see if it works as well as the standard dye for finding blocked or narrowed blood vessels. If you have symptoms of vascular disease, you may be able to join and help compare the two dyes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05055297Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for severe leg artery blockage in lower legs
This trial studies a “drug-coated balloon” procedure to improve blood flow in people with severe, long-lasting poor circulation in the lower leg arteries. It may help reduce repeat blockage after treatment for selected artery lesions below the knee.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04885985Recruiting
Check a new treatment for blocked leg arteries after procedures
This post-market study follows people with significant below-the-knee artery blockages to see how a treatment performs over time. It may help patients by confirming the safety and ongoing effectiveness of the device used for these leg artery problems.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04393389Recruiting
Follow-up study for a drug-coated balloon in leg arteries
This is a post-market follow-up study of a drug-coated balloon used to open blocked leg arteries. It checks how safe the device is and how well it works over time after your procedure.
Halle, Saxony-AnhaltAges 18 years+ - NCT06713850Recruiting
Balloon treatment for leg artery blockages with calcium
This trial uses a special balloon (Shockwave IVL) to break up calcium in leg artery blockages, improving blood flow and reducing pain. It's for people with moderate to severe calcium buildup in the femoropopliteal artery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT02842424RecruitingPhase 4
Ramipril for walking pain from blocked leg arteries
This study tests whether ramipril (a blood-pressure medicine) can improve leg muscle problems linked to poor blood flow in people with chronic claudication—pain that limits walking. It’s mainly looking at changes related to oxidative stress and muscle scarring (fibrosis).
Omaha, NebraskaAges 18–90 - NCT06409949Recruiting
MitoQ for leg pain from blocked arteries
This study tests whether MitoQ, a supplement that protects cells, can improve leg pain and walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease. It aims to see if it helps the tiny blood vessels and muscle fibers in the leg.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 21 years+ - NCT06003855Recruiting
Oxygen-guided walking therapy for leg pain
This study tests if monitoring oxygen levels during supervised walking therapy helps people with leg pain from narrowed arteries. It may improve how far you can walk without pain.
Omaha, NebraskaAges Any age - NCT05620095Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon angioplasty for lower leg artery blockages
This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon can better reopen blocked arteries in the lower leg (below the knee). It may help keep blood flow open and reduce the chance the blockage comes back, after a procedure to cross and open the narrowed area.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05908331Recruiting
Balloon treatment test for narrowed stents in heart arteries
This trial tests whether a special drug-coated balloon (“MagicTouch”) can treat re-narrowing inside a previously placed stent. It may help patients whose stent has become blocked again, by improving blood flow and reducing repeat narrowing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–110 - NCT07300384Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for knee pain relief before surgery
This study tests whether a special type of strength training (called blood flow restriction training) can reduce pain in people with severe knee arthritis who are waiting for knee replacement surgery. The training uses a cuff on the thigh to lightly restrict blood flow while doing exercises until failure.
