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 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 how well a minimally invasive (endovascular) procedure works over the long term for people with significant blockage in the lower aorta and iliac arteries. You may be considered if you need treatment for narrowing, re-narrowing, or a blockage of these arteries, and you can safely take the study medications and return for follow-ups.
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 (ICS-Elpis) to treat blocked or narrowed iliac arteries causing leg pain or sores. It aims to see if the stent is safe and works well to improve blood flow.
