Onyx stent safety and effectiveness in older adults
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a specific brand of heart stent (Onyx) works in people 75 and older who have narrowed heart arteries. If you've already received an Onyx stent, the study will check its safety and effectiveness over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 75 years old or older.
- You have a narrowed heart artery (at least 50% blocked) or reduced blood flow to the heart.
- You can take blood-thinning pills (like aspirin or clopidogrel) for at least one month after the procedure.
- You have already had a heart procedure using an Onyx stent (a specific brand).
- You do not have active bleeding or a history of bleeding problems, and you have not had major surgery in the last 2 months.

This study checks how safe and effective two types of heart stents (Synergy XD and Synergy Megatron) are after they are placed. You might consider it if you’re an adult getting one of these stents and can follow required clinic visits.
This study looks at how well doctors can treat multiple blocked heart arteries using a specific drug-eluting stent, aiming to fully open them. It may help patients whose blockage pattern fits the study, but it does not include certain high-risk or special cases.
This trial tests whether an inhaled medication called Aroxxen® can protect your heart during a planned stent procedure. It may help reduce stress on the heart muscle.
This study follows people who need a coronary (heart) stent to see how they do after treatment. It does not sound like an experimental drug trial for you—it’s mainly about collecting health information after a stent procedure.
This trial is testing a way to shorten the time you need to take blood thinners after getting a specific type of heart stent. It uses a special camera (OCT) inside the artery to help decide if stents are placed well enough to allow less time on dual antiplatelet therapy.
This study tracks how well a newer heart stent (a small metal tube that keeps arteries open) works in real patients. Researchers want to understand if this specific stent design is safe and effective over time.
