It is for those who have not yet taken standard medication and have specific vein narrowing seen on MRI.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06898151Recruiting
Comparing timing of carotid surgery or stenting after stroke
This trial compares the best timing for surgery or stenting to open a narrowed carotid artery after a minor stroke. The goal is to see if doing the procedure sooner or later reduces the chance of another stroke.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06862479Enrolling by invitation
Comparing a stent to other endoscopic leak treatments
This trial compares a special stent (the Luso-Cor Stent) to other endoscopic procedures to treat leaks or abnormal connections after certain stomach or esophageal surgeries. It aims to find the best way to fix these complications using a scope.
Lisbon, Lisbon DistrictAges 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+ - NCT06852248Recruiting
Green dye vs. ureter stent for endometriosis surgery
This trial compares two ways of protecting the ureter during deep endometriosis surgery: placing a small tube (stent) versus using a green dye (indocyanine green) to see the ureter. The goal is to see if the dye works just as well but causes less pain and fewer side effects afterward.
Stoke-on-Trent, StaffordshireAges 18–50 - 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+ - NCT06828770Recruiting
Minima stent system long-term safety study
This study checks the safety of the Minima Stent System over time. It is for people who need a stent to keep their blood vessel open. The study wants to see how the device works in real-world use.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06815107Recruiting
Ureteral double-J stent tolerance study
This study looks at why some people have trouble tolerating a ureteral double-J stent, a small tube placed in the ureter to help urine drain. Researchers will ask about symptoms to find risk factors for poor tolerance, which may help future patients.
AmiensAges 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+ - 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 - NCT06014060Recruiting
Shorter vs. longer blood thinner therapy after stenting for high Lp(a)
This trial compares 12 months versus 24 months of dual antiplatelet therapy (two blood thinners) after a stent placement in people with high lipoprotein(a) levels. It aims to see if longer treatment reduces heart risks without increasing bleeding.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06779630Recruiting
Study of a 48mm drug-coated stent for long coronary artery blockages
This trial tests a longer-than-usual drug-coated stent (Orsiro Mission) for treating long blockages in heart arteries. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective for people with coronary artery disease.
Concord, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06520774Recruiting
A new stent-graft system for treating aortic arch aneurysms
This trial tests a special stent-graft designed for aortic arch aneurysms or ulcers that need treatment near the heart. It might be an option if you are not a good candidate for open surgery.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06742125Recruiting
Drug balloon vs. stent for heart attack treatment
This trial compares two ways to treat a major heart attack: using a drug-coated balloon or a drug-eluting stent. If you are having a heart attack and need emergency angioplasty, you may qualify if your artery blockages meet specific size limits and you have no bleeding risks or allergies to the medicines used.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06746233Recruiting
Balloon versus stent for heart attack treatment
This trial compares a drug-coated balloon to a drug-coated stent for opening blocked arteries during a heart attack. It aims to see which device works better for patients having a specific type of heart attack called STEMI.
Banja LukaAges 18 years+ - NCT06726928Recruiting
Stent for pulsatile tinnitus from narrowed head vein
This trial tests a special stent (a small mesh tube) placed in a narrowed vein in the head to stop a bothersome whooshing sound in the ear (pulsatile tinnitus) that hasn't gone away.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06710210Recruiting
Combining two heart treatments for long blocked arteries
This study tests a new way to treat long, narrow blockages in the heart's arteries. It combines a temporary scaffold with a drug-coated balloon, which may help the artery heal without a permanent metal stent. This could be an option for people who need their artery opened but may benefit from a less permanent approach.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT06364553Recruiting
Metal stent for swallowing problems from cancer
This study tests whether a metal tube (stent) placed in the esophagus can safely improve swallowing in people whose cancer blocks the food pipe and cannot be cured. It may help you eat and drink more comfortably.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06090890RecruitingPhase 4
Anti-inflammatory therapy for repeated stent blockages
This trial tests if anti-inflammatory drugs like prednisone or colchicine can prevent stents from blocking again in people who have already had multiple stent blockages. It may offer a new treatment option for those with recurrent in-stent restenosis.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06048445Recruiting
Preventing bile duct issues after children's liver transplant
This trial tests placing a temporary drainage stent during liver transplant surgery in children to see if it helps prevent bile duct complications. It might improve recovery for young transplant recipients.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 1–6 - NCT06675617Recruiting
Additional stent for type B aortic dissection treatment
This trial tests a new device, called the Allay aortic stent, that is used along with a standard stent graft to treat a type B aortic dissection (a tear in the aorta). The goal is to improve how the aorta heals and reduce complications. It is for people whose dissection extends into the abdomen and are already planned for stent grafting.
SalzburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06669806Recruiting
TIPS Stent Graft for Cirrhosis Complications
This study tests a TIPS stent graft (a tiny mesh tube placed in the liver to relieve pressure) for people with cirrhosis and complications like bleeding or fluid buildup. It aims to see how well it works and if it's safe.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT06671418Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Stenting vs drainage for blocked bile ducts from cancer
This study compares two ways to open blocked bile ducts near the liver due to cancer that cannot be removed. One method uses a stent placed through the skin (percutaneous stenting), and the other uses a tube placed through a scope (endoscopic drainage). The goal is to see which approach works better for relieving jaundice and improving quality of life.
