Check best timing for vein treatment with laser and sclerotherapy
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies how to best time two treatments—endovenous laser (laser therapy) and sclerotherapy (a medicine injected into the vein)—to treat varicose veins in the leg. It may help you get symptom relief more effectively by finding the optimal treatment schedule.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have varicose veins in the lower leg caused by leaking veins (reflux) that can be treated with laser
- Your vein condition is in the C2 to C3 symptom stage (moderate to more noticeable symptoms)
- You do not have severe other medical conditions that could make study treatment unsafe
- You have not had a prior blood clot in the leg (deep vein thrombosis, DVT)

This study looks at people with a healing or healing-worsening leg ulcer caused by weak veins (venous reflux). It may help improve care for this common type of ulcer and reduce time to healing by testing an approach for venous ulcers.
This trial tests whether a 1940 nm or a 1470 nm laser works better for treating varicose veins in the legs. It may help you find a more effective option to reduce vein problems like swelling, heaviness, and visible bulges.
This trial tests different types of laser energy to treat varicose veins. It looks at which wavelength works best for closing the faulty vein and preventing the disease from getting worse.
This trial tests whether foam sclerotherapy or a small-surgery treatment (ambulatory phlebectomy) works better for symptoms from leaking varicose veins. It may help by improving which option is most effective and comfortable for people like you.
This trial compares two types of laser treatments combined with injection therapy for small leg veins (spider veins and reticular veins). It aims to find which approach works better for cosmetic improvement.
This study looks at how well and safely a laser procedure works to treat problematic veins in the legs (varicose veins). Researchers will ask you about your satisfaction with the treatment and monitor your recovery.
