Sperstent for remaining blockages after balloon treatment in leg arteries
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a special stent called Sperstent for people who still have blockages or tears in their leg arteries after balloon treatment. It is designed to help improve blood flow and reduce symptoms like leg pain or sores.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- Your leg problem is in the thigh or just behind the knee area.
- You have symptoms like leg pain when walking or sores on your leg or foot (Rutherford category 2 to 5).
- Your doctor expects you to live for more than 1 year.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a new stent (a tiny mesh tube) to open blocked arteries in the pelvis or thigh area. It may help improve blood flow and reduce leg pain or wounds.
This trial studies a new “smart” stent placed in the thigh-to-knee artery to treat significant blockages. It may help improve blood flow to the foot, and you would be followed closely to see how well the stent works over time.
This study is testing a new drug-coated stent for blocked arteries in the thigh or behind the knee. It may help people with moderate to severe leg pain or wounds by improving blood flow without needing surgery.
This study tests a new stent (ZENFLEX Pro) to open blocked or narrowed arteries in the leg. If you have leg pain or sores from poor blood flow, this stent may help improve your symptoms and keep the artery open.
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 studies a drug-eluting dissolving scaffold placed in blocked arteries below the knee to improve blood flow. It may help people whose leg circulation problems are severe enough to limit walking or threaten the limb, but only if their blockages fit specific imaging and procedure requirements.
