RECRUITING NA

Embolization for the Treatment of Heel Pain Secondary to Plantar Fasciitis

NCT06805942 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This study evaluates the feasibility and safety of using Lipiodol (ethiodized oil) as an investigational embolic agent for treating pain caused by plantar fasciitis. Participants will undergo a minimally invasive procedure called plantar fascia embolization (PFE) to reduce inflammation and pain in the affected area. The study aims to assess changes in pain levels, foot function, and any potential side effects over a six-month follow-up period.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06805942

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06805942 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 10 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is IR Centers, which has 29 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Plantar Fasciitis of Both Feet appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Lipiodol (ethiodized oil) injection is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06805942 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Virginia. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
