Drug-coated balloon use in heart procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tracks outcomes for people having a heart procedure with a drug-coated balloon, which releases medicine to help keep arteries open. It may help doctors learn if this treatment works well for a wider range of patients.

This trial compares two treatments for people with complex coronary artery disease who have high-risk conditions or complicated blockages: a drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus a drug-eluting stent (DES). Both are ways to open up narrowed arteries and keep them open without surgery.
This trial is studying how well drug-coated balloons work for people with coronary artery disease. It looks at their use in many different situations, including new blockages, re-narrowed stents, and complex cases. The goal is to see if they are a good option for opening blocked arteries.
This study looks at how well a drug-coated balloon (a balloon with medicine that opens blocked heart arteries) works, either alone or with a stent, to treat coronary artery disease. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective over time.
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 study tracks outcomes in adults who receive a special balloon catheter (coated with medication) to open blocked heart arteries. Researchers collect data to understand how well this treatment works and any side effects that occur.
This trial studies a balloon treatment coated with medicine (to help keep the artery open) for people with coronary artery disease. You may be a candidate if you are planned to receive this type of procedure and do not have certain key safety risks.
