What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary patency

    Primary patency following a first angioplasty of a first stenose in the affected zone.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (23)
  1. Number of early re-stenoses

    stenosis defined as lumen diameter < 2mm

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Number of re-stenoses

    Stenosis defined as lumen diameter < 2mm

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Total days in hospital

    The total number of days hospitalized for stenosis, thrombosis, or recovering vascular access. This does not include regular hemodialysis activities.

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Number of stents used

    The total number of stents placed between the study angioplasty and the end-of-study visit.

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Total number of venous thromboses

    Total number of venous thromboses between study angioplasty and end-of-study visit

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Direct medical costs (€)

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Indirect costs (€)

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Questionnaire KDQOL

    Measured: 12 months

  9. Questionnaire SF36

    Measured: 12 months

  10. Questionnaire KDQOL

    Measured: 3 months

  11. Questionnaire KDQOL

    Measured: 6 months

  12. Questionnaire SF36

    Measured: 3 months

  13. Questionnaire SF36

    Measured: 6 months

  14. Fistula quality (cm*ml/min)

    cumulative length of "usable" fistula (cm) * venous flow during the last hemodialysis (ml/min)

    Measured: Baseline

  15. Fistula quality (cm*ml/min)

    cumulative length of "usable" fistula (cm) * venous flow during the last hemodialysis (ml/min)

    Measured: 6 months

  16. Fistula quality (cm*ml/min)

    cumulative length of "usable" fistula (cm) * venous flow during the last hemodialysis (ml/min)

    Measured: 12 months

  17. % Stenosis

    100-((the smallest diameter of the stenosis lumen (mm)/ the diameter of a proximal, normal portion of lumen (mm))*100)

    Measured: Baseline

  18. % Stenosis

    100-((the smallest diameter of the stenosis lumen (mm)/ the diameter of a proximal, normal portion of lumen (mm))*100)

    Measured: 6 months

  19. % Stenosis

    100-((the smallest diameter of the stenosis lumen (mm)/ the diameter of a proximal, normal portion of lumen (mm))*100)

    Measured: 12 months

  20. Presence/absence of complications associated with the angioplasty

    Measured: Day of intervention

  21. % Stenosis

    100-((the smallest diameter of the stenosis lumen (mm)/ the diameter of a proximal, normal portion of lumen (mm))*100)

    Measured: 3 months

  22. Presence/absence of complications since the last visit

    Measured: 6 months

  23. Presence/absence of complications since the last visit

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cutting balloon angioplasty and Angioplasty in people with Arteriovenous Fistula and Fistula, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Inclusion curve too slow.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary patency (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jun 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
