Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recurrent stenosis in hemodialysis access graft (AVG) is difficult to treat. For recurrent stenosis in the anastomotic junction can be treated by stent graft to improve long-term patency. However, there is no data regarding treatment of stent graft restenosis in AVG. This randomized trial is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus regular balloon in AVG stent graft restenosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Prosthetic arteriovenous hemodialysis access graft (AVG) has high incidences of venous anastomotic stenosis and access failure. A stent graft can be used in AVG with recurrent venous anastomotic stenosis to improve long-term patency rate. However, after stent graft implementation, the effective treatment for restenosis in a stent graft is still unknown. This randomized trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon versus regular balloon for in-stent restenosis in stent graft. The investigators plan to enroll 40 patients who presented with prosthetic AVG in-stent restenosis, and then to evaluate the restenosis lesions by intravascular ultrasound. Patients will be randomized into two groups of treatment: drug-coated balloon angioplasty or regular balloon angioplasty.

Regular balloon

Use the regular balloon to perform standard balloon angioplasty.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Regular balloon

Intervention Type DEVICE

Randomization: to use regular balloon to treat stent graft restenosis

DCB (paclitaxel-coated balloon)

* Bleeding diathesis.
* Patients participating in another clinical trial with interfering with this trial in the past three months.
* Untreatable bleeding diathesis.
* Other diseases, such as cancer, liver disease, or cardiac insufficiency, which may lead to protocol violations or markedly shorten a patient's life expectancy (less than 3 months).
* Patients unable or unwilling to participate this trial.
* Pregnancy, lactating woman, non-adult, criminals in sentence, psychiatric patients, research staffs or colleagues are prohibited.
