ATTRACT : Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombosis Removal With Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis
Study Timeline: Currently Enrolling

This study is designed to test standard treatment for blood clots with standard treatments and a new treatment. All participants will receive blood-thinning drugs, the standard treatment for blood clots. In addition half of the study participants will be randomly chosen to have their clot dissolved using a clot-busting drug (TPA) that a doctor will inject directly into the clotted vein through a specially designed drug delivery catheter.

Participants are followed for 2 years to assess possible symptoms related to the clot and how well both treatments prevent complications.


 
 
 
CLEVER: Claudication: Exercise vs Endoluminal Revascularization
Study Timeline: Currently enrolling
This study is a randomized, multi-center clinical trial designed to determine optimal treatment for individuals with intermittent claudication from peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study is the only study of its kind to compare medical therapy, supervised exercise training and invasive catheterization/stent revascularization procedures

This study is designed to compare two treatments for carotid artery stenosis in low-risk patients. Participants are assigned randomly to receive either carotid surgery (standard treatment) or carotid stenting.
 
 
 
PIVOTAL: Positive Impact of Endovascular Options for Treating Aneurysms Early
Study Timeline: Closed to enrollment
This study compares Endovascular stent repair versus standard surveillance of patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysms
 
 
 
Vascular Carotid Studies
Study Timeline: Currently open to enrollment
Clinical research studies are being conducted for adults who have been diagnosed with carotid artery stenosis and are considered a high-risk for carotid surgery. Research studies offer various research treatments for individuals with a diagnosis of carotid artery disease.
 
 
 
ZILVER PTX
Study Timeline: Closed to enrollment
