About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Self-Expanding Nitinol Stent Versus Balloon Angioplasty Alone for the Below The Knee Arteries Following Successful Balloon Angioplasty Trial (Korean Vascular Intervention Multicenter Study)

The objectives of this study are to compare directly conventional balloon angioplasty alone versus. balloon angioplasty with routine stenting - that is, to determine whether angioplasty with self-expanding stent is superior to conventional balloon angioplasty - in the infrapopliteal arterial occlusive lesions of critical limb ischemia patients by collecting and analyzing the cases of each patient group in a prospective multicenter randomized clinical trial, and to clarify main factors affecting mid- and long-term clinical effects of angioplasty with self-expanding stent in the infrapopliteal arteries.

Hypothesis: Balloon PTA followed by routine stenting with self-expanding nitinol stent in critical limb ischemia patients with infrapopliteal arterial occlusive lesions is superior to conventional PTA in the aspect of vascular restenosis rate.

Being tested
self-expanding nitinol stent, balloon angioplasty

    Also called Xpert stent

    A group of patients who will undergo subsequent primary stenting following successful conventional balloon angioplasty

  • balloon angioplastyDevice

    A group of patients who will undergo routine conventional balloon angioplasty alone without stenting

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing self-expanding nitinol stent and balloon angioplasty in people with Critical Limb Ischemia and Infrapopliteal Arterial Occlusive Disease, run by Korea University Guro Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 14 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2019. 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 South Korea. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Angiographic binary restenosis rate (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 14 Aug 2019.
