Stent treatment study for blocked heart arteries
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a coronary stent approach for people with significantly blocked heart arteries. It may help by improving blood flow, and it compares treatment in a structured way while monitoring safety and outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 19 years old
- You can understand the study and sign consent on your own
- You have heart artery disease that is either stable or happening now as a recent heart problem
- Your scan shows at least one blockage that is more than 50% narrowed and can be treated with a stent
- You are not pregnant
- You are able to take key blood-thinning medicines (aspirin and others used around stent placement) and heparin, and you are not allergic/intolerant to them or to drug-eluting stent medicines like sirolimus or everolimus

This trial tests a new type of stent made from magnesium that slowly dissolves over time. It is for people who have a long blockage in a heart artery that has not been treated before and may be a good option for those who are stable and have not had a recent heart attack.
This trial tests a new type of stent (a small mesh tube) that slowly releases a medicine called sirolimus to keep your heart artery open after angioplasty. It is designed for people with narrowing in their heart arteries who need a stent.
This trial tests a new drug-coated stent (GENOSS® DES) for people with blockages in multiple heart arteries. It aims to see how safe and effective the stent is for these patients.
This trial compares two drug-coated stents for treating blocked heart arteries, with or without vitamin C (ascorbic acid). It tests whether sirolimus plus vitamin C is as safe and effective as everolimus. If you need a stent, this study may help determine which medication coating works best for you.
This study compares two ways to open blocked heart arteries: one uses a balloon coated with medicine, and the other uses a small mesh tube (stent) that releases medicine. The goal is to see which works better for people with chest pain or a recent heart attack.
This trial tests a new stent (a small mesh tube) to open narrowed heart arteries and improve blood flow. It may help people with multiple blocked arteries who are having a procedure to widen them.
