EVERO Drug-coated Balloon (DCB) Randomized Trial

An interventional study of Evero DCB and Paclitaxel DCB in Peripheral Vascular Disease and Peripheral Arterial Disease, sponsored by Cook Research Incorporated. Recruiting at 15 sites in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-04.

Registry
Peripheral Vascular Diseases — the first condition term the registry derived for this study.

Peripheral Arterial Disease
Why
  1. The study's listed conditions name Peripheral Arterial Disease, a narrower term within Peripheral Vascular Diseases.
Confidence
High: the new condition is named in the study's own listed conditions. Of 351 hand-checked studies reclassified this way, 68% were exactly right and 84% in the right disease family; the registry's first term was right for 5% (measured 2026-10-21). How we classify →

Study summary

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Advance Evero™ 18 Everolimus-coated Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Balloon Catheter (hereafter referred to as the Evero drug-coated balloon [DCB]) in the treatment of the femoropopliteal artery lesions in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Specifically, the Randomized-Controlled Trial (RCT) is designed to demonstrate non-inferior safety and non-inferior effectiveness of the Evero DCB when compared to commercially available paclitaxel DCBs (pDCBs).

Lead sponsor

Cook Research Incorporated is the lead sponsor of 33 studies on the registry; 4 are open to participants now.

Of its 6 completed or terminated interventional studies of FDA-regulated products, 5 (83%) have results posted.

Compared within Peripheral Arterial Disease, this study's primary condition as ClinicalTrials.gg classifies it; the registry's first condition term is Peripheral Vascular Diseases. The counts are of registry records indexed under each term, refreshed daily. How we classify →

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Documented PAD with Rutherford classification 2 - 4; and
  2. De novo or restenotic (non-stented) target lesion located in the native superficial femoral artery (SFA), popliteal artery (P1 or P2), or both native SFA and popliteal arteries.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

General Exclusion Criteria

  1. Less than 18 years old;
  2. Inability or refusal to give by the patient or legally authorized representative;
  3. ≤ 12 months, per investigator assessment;
  4. Pregnant (or if absence of pregnancy is not verified by negative pregnancy test within 7 days of planned procedure), lactating, planning to become pregnant within 12 months of the planned procedure, or unwilling to use for 12 months following the planned procedure;
  5. Unable or unwilling to comply with the follow-up schedule; or
  6. Simultaneously participating in another drug or device study unless the patient is at least 30 days beyond the primary endpoint of any previous study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Primary safety endpoint

    The primary safety endpoint is a composite assessment of freedom from device- or procedure-related death, freedom from target limb major amputation, and freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR)

    Time frame: 30 days (death); 12 months (amputation and CD-TLR)

  2. Primary effectiveness endpoint

    The primary effectiveness endpoint is primary patency defined as peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.4 assessed by duplex ultrasound at 12 months and freedom from CD-TLR.

    Time frame: 12 months

Timeline

3 registry updates since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Apr 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Sep 2028, 29 months after the start.

Of 125 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Peripheral Arterial Disease, half reached primary completion within 28 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 45. This study's planned 29 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 385 studies reached it within 31 months; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 55.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
