Official title: Vascular Trial Associated Registry Pilot: Antiplatelet Therapies for Patients Undergoing Lower Extremity Endovascular Revascularization

Run by Corewell Health West · NCT07076082 · Data updated 2026-11-12

Trying whether taking two antiplatelet medicines for six months instead of one month helps keep treated leg arteries open after lower extremity endovascular revascularization in people with peripheral arterial disease.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 45 or older with atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease who undergo lower extremity endovascular revascularization, can consent, are not allergic to aspirin or clopidogrel, and can participate in VQI-PVI registry data submission and follow-up.

Probably not a fit

Patients at high bleeding risk, those allergic to aspirin or clopidogrel, those unable to stop anticoagulants or on dual pathway inhibition, or those with nonatherosclerotic vascular disease are unlikely to benefit from extended dual antiplatelet therapy in this protocol.

What this trial studies

This multicenter, open-label randomized pilot enrolls patients aged 45 and older undergoing lower extremity endovascular revascularization for atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease. All participants receive dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin plus clopidogrel) for the first month, and those who consent at one month are randomized 1:1 (stratified by diabetes) to stop clopidogrel and continue single antiplatelet therapy versus continue dual therapy for an additional five months. Outcomes including target vessel patency, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), major adverse limb events (MALE), and bleeding events are followed for 12 months and data are collected through nested participation in the VQI-PVI registry.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, extending dual antiplatelet therapy could increase the chance that treated leg arteries remain open without substantially increasing bleeding complications.

How similar studies have gone: Longer dual antiplatelet regimens have shown mixed results in peripheral interventions and more consistent evidence in coronary stenting, so this approach is plausible but not yet well established for peripheral arterial disease.
