Testing balloon and stent devices for blocked kidney or leg arteries
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial studies how safe and well several balloon and stent devices work for treating narrowed or blocked arteries in the kidney area or the groin/upper leg. It may help patients who fit the specific artery location and device-use instructions for these treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your artery shape/size must fit each device’s instructions for use
- You must not be allergic to anything in the device materials

This trial tests a special balloon that releases medication to help keep leg arteries open. It's for people with narrowed or blocked arteries in the leg, either above or below the knee.
This trial tests a two-step treatment for long blockages in the leg artery: first, a device clears the plaque, then a drug-coated balloon is used to keep the artery open and prevent re-narrowing. It aims to improve blood flow and reduce symptoms like leg pain or wounds.
This study tests a special balloon to open blocked arteries below the knee in people with severe leg pain or wounds. It aims to improve blood flow and save the limb from amputation.
This post-market study follows people with significant below-the-knee artery blockages to see how a treatment performs over time. It may help patients by confirming the safety and ongoing effectiveness of the device used for these leg artery problems.
This trial tests a new stent for people with narrowing or blockage of the iliac artery, which is the main artery in your hip that supplies blood to your legs. The goal is to see if the stent is safe and can open the artery to improve blood flow and reduce leg pain.
This trial tests a special balloon coated with medicine to treat blocked small arteries in the heart. It may help people who have new blockages and are getting a procedure to open those arteries.
