- NCT06779110Recruiting
OCT vs. X-ray guidance for treating re-blocked stents

Aosta, AostaAges 18–99 - NCT06815120Recruiting
New stent study for kidney stone and cancer patients
This trial tests a new type of ureteric stent (a tube that helps drain urine from the kidney) against the standard stent. It is open to patients who have had a stent before and need a new one because of kidney stones or cancer pressing on the ureter.
Southampton, EnglandAges 18–99 - NCT07222527Recruiting
One stent versus two for gallbladder problems
This trial tests whether using one plastic stent or two is better for people with gallbladder disease who need an ERCP but can't have gallbladder surgery right away. It aims to find which approach works best to keep the bile duct open and prevent complications.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–95 - NCT07275879Recruiting
Quality of life with a new ureteral stent
This study tests a modified double J stent to see how it affects your quality of life. If you have kidney or ureter stones, this trial may help improve comfort during treatment.
Saint Petersburg, Outside U.S./CanadaAges 18 years+ - NCT07316504Recruiting
Best method to fix a stent that is not fully open
This trial compares different ways to fix a stent that hasn't expanded properly inside a coronary artery. If you have a narrowed stent (restenosis) that looks like it's not fully open, this study may help determine the best treatment approach.
Clermont-Ferrand, AuvergneAges 18 years+ - NCT07397845Recruiting
Stents vs drug-coated balloons for small or complex heart vessels
This trial compares two treatments—stents and paclitaxel-coated balloons—for people with narrowed heart arteries that are small, long, or complex. It aims to find which option works better to restore blood flow.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT06743516Recruiting
Stent for pancreas connection after Whipple surgery
This trial tests if placing a small tube (stent) in the pancreas during Whipple surgery helps prevent leaks. It is for patients whose pancreas is found to be soft during surgery.
MinyaAges 18–75 - NCT01654133Enrolling by invitation
Testing branched stent grafts’ effect on blood flow after aortic repair
This study evaluates how well branched stent grafts work after repairing certain large or fast-growing aortic aneurysms (bulges in the main artery). It also checks blood-flow and organ function—especially flow to organs—in the weeks and months after the procedure.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07474935Recruiting
Real-world stroke treatment device registry
This trial collects information about the use of a specific stroke treatment device in real-world medical practice. It helps researchers see how well this device works for a wide range of patients, not just those in strict study conditions.
BrestAges Any age - NCT07674173Recruiting
Registry study of Minos stent-graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm
This study tracks the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Minos stent-graft system in treating abdominal aortic aneurysms. It collects data from patients across Europe and Asia to see how well the device works over five years.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18 years+ - NCT07769814Recruiting
Better CT imaging for brain stent checkups
This study looks at whether a new type of CT scanner can take clearer pictures of stents in the brain. The goal is to help doctors see if the stent is working well after it's been placed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 5–90 - NCT07754240Recruiting
Stent graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm
This trial tests a new stent graft device for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms. The device is placed inside the aneurysm to reinforce the artery and prevent rupture, which may help people who are candidates for this minimally invasive procedure.
PlevenAges 18–80 - NCT07760792Recruiting
Bacteria on ureteral stents: risks and impact
This study looks at whether bacteria grow on the temporary tube placed in your ureter (the tube that carries urine from your kidney to your bladder) during treatment. It aims to understand what problems this might cause and how it affects your recovery.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT06827990Recruiting
Stent graft for type A aortic dissection
This trial tests a stent graft device to repair a tear in the main artery from the heart (aorta). It is for people who have a high-risk condition called Type A aortic dissection and are not good candidates for open heart surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07754188Recruiting
Comparing two treatments for unruptured brain aneurysms
This study compares two ways to treat a type of brain aneurysm (a weak spot in a blood vessel) that has not burst. It looks at early problems after using a flow diverter or stent-assisted coiling, to see which might be safer or more effective.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07190690Recruiting
Comparing two drug-coated stents for heart attack patients
This trial compares two types of drug-coated stents (one with sirolimus, one with everolimus) in people who have had a heart attack or unstable angina and need a stent. It aims to see which stent works better for new blockages in the heart arteries.
AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT06863155Recruiting
A thin heart stent for people on blood thinners
This trial tests a new type of heart stent in people who also take daily blood thinners. The stent is very thin and releases medicine over time to help keep the artery open, and the coating eventually dissolves. It may be a safer option for people on blood thinners who need a stent.
AlbaceteAges 18 years+ - NCT06448949Recruiting
Blood flow study after flow diverter for brain aneurysm
This study uses detailed 3D X-rays and ultrasound to understand how blood flows through a mesh tube (flow diverter) placed in a brain aneurysm. It may help doctors predict and prevent narrowing inside the tube.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05636527Recruiting
NEXUS aortic arch stent graft safety study
This study checks how safe and well the NEXUS device works for repairing the aorta in the arch area. You may qualify if you need this type of aortic repair and your health supports the procedure.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05732077Recruiting
Stent decisions for kidney artery narrowing in hard-to-control blood pressure
This trial studies whether using a pressure-based test called fractional flow reserve (FFR) helps doctors choose the right kidney artery stent for people with narrowing of kidney arteries and high blood pressure. It may help improve blood pressure control while avoiding unnecessary procedures.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT02600936Recruiting
Vein stent registry study for adults with blocked vein flow
This is a registry (a study that tracks patient information) for adults who get a vein stent to improve blocked blood flow in major veins. It may help doctors better understand how vein stents are used for these problems over time.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05517291Recruiting
Compare two stent types for blocked thigh artery disease
This trial compares a special drug-coated balloon/stent strategy versus a standard stent approach for people with blocked thigh artery segments. It aims to improve how long the artery stays open and reduces repeat procedures.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT06803030RecruitingPhase 3
Study of three drugs for ureteral stent discomfort
This trial is testing three different medicines to see if they can reduce common symptoms like pain and frequent urination caused by a ureteral stent placed after kidney stone surgery. If you are between 19 and 80 years old and had a stent placed during ureteroscopy, you may be able to join.
Kathmandu, BagmatiAges 18–80 - NCT03713879RecruitingPhase 3
Indomethacin vs pancreatic stent to prevent post-ERCP pancreatitis
This study compares indomethacin (an anti-inflammatory medicine) against using a temporary pancreatic stent to prevent pancreatitis after an ERCP procedure. It may help you lower the chance of painful inflammation of the pancreas after ERCP.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stent?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 358 recruiting stent studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a stent trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a stent trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
