Indobufen vs aspirin after stent in older heart patients
This trial tests whether a blood thinner called indobufen works as well as aspirin for older people (65+) who have had a heart attack or unstable angina, received a drug-eluting stent, and are already taking two blood thinners. The goal is to find a safer or better option for long-term prevention.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT06484647Recruiting
Stenting methods for blocked artery forks
This trial compares two techniques for placing stents in the tricky area where a coronary artery splits into two branches (a bifurcation). The goal is to see which method leads to better blood flow and fewer complications for people with blockages there.
Rivoli, TurinAges 18 years+ - NCT06485622Recruiting
Comparing treatments for leg artery hardening
This study is testing different treatments for people with hardened arteries in the legs that cause moderate to severe symptoms like pain, difficulty walking, or sores. The goal is to see which treatment works best to improve blood flow and quality of life.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06503588Recruiting
No ureteral stent change for urinary infections
This trial tests whether leaving a ureteral stent in place during a urinary tract infection is safe. It may help avoid unnecessary procedures for patients with an indwelling ureteral catheter who develop a urinary infection.
Nancy, LorraineAges Any age - NCT06551662Recruiting
Balloon vs. stent for split artery blockages
This trial compares two ways to open a blocked artery that splits into two branches (a bifurcation): using a balloon coated with medicine (drug-coated balloon, or DCB) versus a drug-eluting stent (DES). The goal is to see which approach works better for patients with this type of blockage.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06657794Recruiting
Custom graft repair for aortic aneurysms near the kidneys
This trial tests a doctor-modified stent-graft to fix an aneurysm in the part of the aorta just below the kidney arteries. It may be an option if standard devices cannot be used or are not available in time.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06658730Recruiting
A study to check long-term safety of a Gore thoracic stent graft
This registry study tracks patients who have or will receive a Gore thoracic stent graft to see how well the device performs over time. It helps doctors understand the device's long-term benefits and any possible complications.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06669377Recruiting
Combination therapy for liver cancer with main portal vein tumor clot
This trial tests a combination of treatments for liver cancer that has spread to the main portal vein. It uses a special stent, radiation seeds, and targeted therapies to shrink the tumor and improve blood flow. This may help patients who haven't had certain prior treatments.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07247864Recruiting
Balloon guide catheter and filter protection for carotid stenting
This trial tests using a balloon guide catheter along with a filter to prevent debris from reaching the brain during carotid artery stenting. It may help people who have severe narrowing or blockage in the carotid artery and are getting a stent.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07228312Recruiting
Stent treatment for unruptured brain aneurysm
This study tests a flexible stent (Choydar flow-directed mesh) to treat unruptured brain aneurysms in the neck area of the carotid or vertebral arteries. It is for people whose aneurysm has not bled and fits certain size and shape limits.
ChenzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT06718179RecruitingPhase 4
Short vs. 12-month prasugrel and aspirin after a heart attack with a stent
This trial compares taking a shorter course of prasugrel (a blood thinner) plus aspirin after a heart attack versus the standard 12-month course. It aims to see if a shorter duration is just as effective and safer for people who got a specific type of stent (everolimus-eluting).
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06736665Recruiting
Comparing two ways to treat hardened calcium in heart arteries
This trial compares two techniques (orbital atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy) to break up tough calcium deposits in the heart's arteries that can block blood flow. If you have a calcified nodule and are having a non-emergency procedure to open a blocked artery, this study may help guide which method works best.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT06742931Recruiting
Balloon vs stent for heart artery blockages in high bleeding risk patients
This trial compares a drug-coated balloon (medicated balloon) to a drug-eluting stent (medicated mesh tube) for treating new blockages in heart arteries. It is designed for patients with a high risk of bleeding who have completed a short course of anti-clotting medication and have been event-free for at least one year.

Stomach stent for weight regain after sleeve gastrectomy
This trial is testing a special stomach stent (called a gastric bypass stent) to help people who regained weight after a sleeve gastrectomy. If you've had a sleeve gastrectomy and your BMI is 27.5 or higher, this study might help you lose weight again without another surgery.
BeijingAges 16–65 - NCT06847568RecruitingPhase 3
Adrenaline during heart artery procedure to prevent poor blood flow
This study tests whether giving adrenaline (a medicine that helps blood vessels relax) directly into the heart artery during a procedure to open a blocked artery can prevent a complication called 'no reflow' (where blood still doesn't flow well after the blockage is cleared). It is for people having a specific type of heart attack (STEMI) and being treated within 12 hours.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT06857058Recruiting
