About this study
Official title: Prospective, Multi-center and Randomized Controlled Clinical Study to Verify Effectiveness and Safety of Drug-eluting Balloon in PTA Procedure of the Infrapopliteal Artery
The purpose of this study is to determine whether DEB is more effective than common PTA balloon using under in long-term vessel patency and inhibiting restenosis in the infrapopliteal artery.
Read the detailed description
PTA is an established alternative to open surgical bypass for the treatment of infrainginual disease of critical limb ischemia.
DEBs are designed to promote arterial patency by reducing neointimal proliferation.
- Conditions
- Peripheral Artery Disease

technical success rates
The blood supply of the target lesion recovered after treatment, and residual stenosis less than 50%
Measured: during the operation(after using the DEB catheter)
operation success rate
both device succeed and technical succeed, and without clinical complication
Measured: during the operation(after using the DEB catheter)
if occured clinically driven TLR( target lesion revascularization)

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 11 sites in China. 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?
Primary Patency [Time Frame: 6 months] (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02137577, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 18 Jun 2021.
