Check whether a leg-artery nerve procedure helps poor circulation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at whether endovascular denervation (a catheter-based nerve-targeting procedure inside blood vessels) can improve symptoms and circulation in people with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). It may help if you have PAD that causes walking problems or ongoing lower-leg symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You have PAD confirmed by a clinician, in Rutherford category II to VI
- You have not had clot-busting (thrombolytic) treatment in the last 30 days
- You have not had a prior leg blood-vessel bypass surgery
- You can safely take blood-thinning medicines and contrast dye (and have no known allergies to them)
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding (and not planning pregnancy)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a device-based treatment approach for people with blocked (narrowed or fully blocked) arteries in the thigh or behind the knee that reduce blood flow to the leg. It may help improve blood flow and walking ability, but you must meet specific artery and imaging requirements.
This study looks at results of a minimally invasive procedure done inside blood vessels (endovascular therapy) for people with painful or worsening leg artery disease. It uses both past (retrospective) and future (prospective) patient information to better understand outcomes.
This trial checks how well a device called the Pantheris Small Vessel System works to treat blocked small blood vessels in the foot/leg. It may help people improve circulation, but you must meet specific health and follow-up requirements.
This trial tests a supervised exercise program for people with leg pain when walking caused by narrowed leg arteries. The goal is to see if exercise can improve walking ability and quality of life.
This study tests whether a community-based exercise program helps people recover and improve walking after a procedure to restore blood flow in the leg arteries. It may help if your main problem is leg circulation problems and you’re able to take part in exercise safely.
This trial tests a new kind of exercise that is meant to be non-ischemic (not reduce blood flow) and pain-free, to see if it helps people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who get leg pain when walking. You may be eligible if you have PAD confirmed by specific treadmill and blood-pressure measurements and meet the exercise and health safety requirements.
