Drug-coated balloon for patients with heart artery disease in multiple vessels
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon is a good treatment option for people who have blockages in two or more heart arteries. It aims to see if this approach can safely open blocked arteries without a permanent stent.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a special balloon that releases medicine to open blocked heart arteries. It may help people with chest pain or silent ischemia by keeping arteries open longer.
This study looks at how well drug-coated balloons work in real life for people with coronary artery disease. These balloons deliver medicine to open blocked heart arteries, and this trial aims to see how they perform in different patients.
This study compares two treatments for people with blockages in more than one heart artery. One treatment uses a drug-coated balloon to open the artery, and the other uses a drug-releasing stent. The goal is to see which approach is safer and works better.
This trial tests how the way a drug-coated balloon is used during a heart procedure affects outcomes for people with stable heart disease or unstable angina. It may help doctors find the best technique to keep arteries open.
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.
This trial tests a special balloon coated with a drug (sirolimus) to treat blockages in small heart arteries. If the balloon is successful, it may help keep the artery open without needing a permanent stent.
