Breda, North BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT03638999RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Aspirin or similar anti-inflammatory medicine for kidney stone stents
This early-phase study tests whether taking an anti-inflammatory medicine around the time of ureter stent placement can improve outcomes for people with kidney stones. It looks for participants who are getting a stent after a scope procedure and who can follow strict medication and health rules.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04271033Recruiting
MicroNet-covered stent to prevent stroke in carotid procedures
This study tests a special stent (a small mesh tube) that may help prevent stroke during a carotid revascularization procedure. It’s for people with narrowing in the carotid artery, either recently symptomatic or very high-grade even without symptoms.
Krakow, MaloplskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04450758Recruiting
Stent or stoma right away versus surgery later for bowel blockage
This trial studies treatment choices for adults with a large-bowel blockage caused by colon cancer. It compares doing an emergency procedure now (like a stent or stoma) versus bridging to a later colon surgery, to see which approach is safer and works better.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT04565795Recruiting
Temporary dissolvable ureter stent after uncomplicated ureteroscopy
This trial studies a temporary stent that is designed to dissolve in the ureter after a straightforward ureteroscopy to remove a kidney/ureter stone. The goal is to check safety and how well the device performs, and whether it can replace longer-lasting stents for some people.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 21–80 - NCT04909541Recruiting
Questionnaire score for symptoms from a ureter stent
This trial is developing a Canada-based way to score how bothersome a ureter (kidney-to-bladder) stent symptoms feel. It may help doctors better understand and treat stent side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04929821Recruiting
Study of a dissolvable stent for bile duct narrowing
This study is testing a new type of stent that eventually dissolves on its own. The stent is placed in a narrowed bile duct to open it up and let bile flow properly. This might help people with strictures caused by scarring, stones, past surgeries, or certain bile duct cancers.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT05050864Recruiting
Stent versus brain-surgery options for idiopathic pressure
This study compares two treatment approaches for idiopathic intracranial hypertension (high pressure in the brain) that has not improved with usual medical treatment. It may help doctors learn which option works better and is safer for people with specific scan and eye findings.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05054985Recruiting
Stent graft for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm
This trial tests a specialized multi-branch stent graft to treat a large or growing aneurysm in the aorta near the chest and abdomen. It mainly looks at safety and whether the stent keeps blood flowing to important arteries.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05202314Recruiting
Camrelizumab plus chemo after stent for left bowel cancer
This study tests whether adding camrelizumab (an immune therapy) to chemotherapy—after a stent is placed to open a blocked left-sided colon—improves outcomes. It’s meant for people whose cancer can still be removed with surgery after the blockage is treated.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05292651Recruiting
Stent placement strategy study for blocked heart arteries
This study compares how best to place a coronary stent (a small tube to keep an artery open) using modern techniques. It may help improve how safely and effectively stents are delivered in people with certain types of narrowed heart arteries.
DordrechtAges 18–100 - NCT05305482Recruiting
Compare two stents after heart attack treatment
This trial compares two types of stents that release medicine to help keep arteries open after an acute coronary syndrome event (often called a heart attack or unstable angina). It tests whether the standard short course of two blood-thinning medicines for one month is enough, and which stent strategy works best.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05320263Recruiting
Thrombectomy timing: aspiration tube vs stent for basilar stroke
This trial compares two ways to remove a blockage in the brain’s basilar artery: suction (aspiration) versus a retriever stent. It may help doctors learn which approach works better for restoring blood flow in acute stroke patients.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05320926Recruiting
Clopidogrel vs aspirin after heart stent treatment
This trial compares two blood-thinning medicines—clopidogrel and aspirin—after you have finished a short period of dual therapy following a special type of drug-eluting heart stent. It may help find which medicine works better and is safer for preventing future heart problems.
SeoulAges 19–84 - NCT05378347Recruiting
