A new stent for blocked iliac arteries in the leg
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You have narrowing or blockage in the iliac artery (the artery in your hip area) caused by plaque buildup
- You have leg pain when walking, or have pain in your foot or toes at rest, but you are not at the point where you need an amputation
- The narrowed area must be at least 50% blocked and can be opened with a balloon before stent placement
- You have not had a prior stent in the same artery, and you have good blood flow in the other vessels of your leg
- You are not allergic to aspirin, heparin, clopidogrel, contrast dye, or the materials in the stent

This study is testing a new stent called BeFlow to see how well it works and how safe it is for people with blocked or narrowed iliac arteries. The stent is placed permanently to keep the artery open.
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 trial tests a balloon-expandable covered stent to treat blockages in the iliac artery (a major blood vessel in your pelvis). It may be an option for people with leg pain from poor blood flow.
This study compares a new balloon-expandable stent to standard bare-metal stenting to treat complex blockages in the iliac arteries (main blood vessels to the legs). It may help people with symptoms like leg pain with walking, pain at rest, or minor tissue injury by improving blood flow and reducing repeat procedures.
This study looks at people with narrowed or blocked arteries in the pelvis (iliac arteries) who receive a stent to improve blood flow. It aims to understand which factors might predict future serious problems in the legs, like worsening pain or amputation.
This trial tests a specific stent system (BeGraft) to improve blood flow through the aorta and iliac arteries in people with symptomatic peripheral artery disease. It may help reduce symptoms and improve leg circulation, based on the study device’s ability to fit your artery anatomy.
