Arm vs. Leg Artery for Carotid Stenting
This study compares two ways to reach the blocked neck artery during a stent procedure: through an artery in your arm versus one in your groin. The goal is to see which route is safer and works better for patients who need this treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06573437Recruiting
VESTO vascular stent for leg artery blockages
This study tests a new stent (a tiny mesh tube) to open blocked arteries in the pelvis or thigh area. It may help improve blood flow and reduce leg pain or wounds.
Salvador, Estado de BahiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06605209Recruiting
A covered stent study for iliac artery blockage
This trial tests a balloon-expandable covered stent to treat blockages in the iliac artery (a major blood vessel in your pelvis). It may be an option for people with leg pain from poor blood flow.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06631755Recruiting
How calcium affects stent healing: an imaging study
This study looks at how calcium buildup in artery walls affects how well a stent heals. Doctors will use special imaging (OCT) right after stent placement and again a month later to check the healing of the tiny metal struts.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06657326Recruiting
New stent for high bleeding risk patients
This trial tests a new type of stent (BioFreedom Ultra) compared to a standard one (BioFreedom) in people who have a high risk of bleeding. Both stents release medicine to keep arteries open, and the study checks if the newer stent works better with a shorter course of blood thinners.
Johor Bahru, JohorAges 18 years+ - NCT07635407Recruiting
Virtual Stent Planning to Improve Heart Artery Procedures
This trial tests whether using computer software to virtually plan stent placement before your heart procedure leads to better outcomes. The goal is to optimize how stents are positioned in your coronary arteries.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06710210Recruiting
Hybrid scaffold-balloon vs standard stent for long blockages
This trial tests a new way to treat long, narrow blockages in heart arteries. Instead of using a standard permanent metal stent, doctors will combine a temporary scaffold with a special balloon that releases medication. The goal is to see if this approach works as well as or better than the usual metal stent.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 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+ - NCT06727006Recruiting
Rescue stenting and clot-dissolving medicine for severe stroke
This trial tests whether using a stent plus a clot-dissolving drug can improve outcomes for people with a large-vessel stroke who are having a procedure to remove the clot. It is designed for patients who can receive treatment within 24 hours of their first symptoms.
Bergamo, ItalyAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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 - 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 - NCT06915545Recruiting
Studying a new stent graft for type B aortic dissection
This trial tests a special stent graft for people with a type B aortic dissection that needs a new blood flow path to the left subclavian artery. The device is placed in the aortic arch to repair the tear and keep blood flowing normally.
ChangshaAges 18–80 - NCT06919744Recruiting
Stenting for intracranial hypertension: early treatment study
This trial tests whether placing a small tube (stent) in a narrowed brain vein can help people with newly diagnosed intracranial hypertension (high pressure in the head) that causes vision problems. It is for those who have not yet taken standard medication and have specific vein narrowing seen on MRI.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06930690RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Dexamethasone for ureteral stent symptoms trial
This trial tests whether a single dose of dexamethasone, given before stent placement, can reduce pain, urgency, and discomfort caused by ureteral stents after kidney stone surgery. If you are having a stent placed during ureteroscopy, you may qualify.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT06945848Recruiting
Stenting for Intracranial Hypertension on Acetazolamide
This trial tests whether placing a stent (a small tube) in a narrowed brain vein can help reduce pressure in the head in people with Intracranial Hypertension who have been on acetazolamide for over a year. It may be an option if you still have high pressure despite medication.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06954714Recruiting
Balloon vs stent for new heart blockages
This trial compares two treatments for new blockages in heart arteries: a drug-coated balloon (a tiny balloon that delivers medicine) versus a drug-eluting stent (a small mesh tube that releases medicine). The study hopes to see which approach keeps the artery open longer and is safer over time.
Busan, BusanAges 19 years+ - NCT06969729Recruiting
3D-printed aortic stent graft trial for aneurysms
This trial tests a custom-made aortic stent graft created with 3D printing technology for people with certain types of abdominal or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. It aims to see if this new device is safe and works well to repair the aneurysm.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stent?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 354 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.
