Study on iliac stenting to prevent major leg events
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a narrowing or blockage in one or both iliac arteries that is causing symptoms, like leg pain when walking (claudication) or more severe pain or wounds needing urgent care.
- You have not had a previous stent placed in the same iliac artery segment.
- You have not had open bypass surgery or aneurysm repair in the pelvic area.
- You have enough medical records available for the study team to review your care and outcomes.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 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 minimally invasive procedure to open severely blocked arteries in the lower belly and pelvis. It aims to improve blood flow and reduce leg pain, helping patients who have not gotten enough relief from other treatments.
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 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.
