Filter by:This study will look at the performance of the Cordis S.M.A.R.T.™ CONTROL ™ Nitinol Stent System for the treatment of TASC C & D superficial femoral artery long lesions (up to 22 cm) in comparison with the Bard® Luminexx™ 6F Vascular Stent as determined by the primary patency rate at 6 and 12 months post procedure.
The main objective of this study is to assess the performance of the Cordis SMART™ nitinol self-expandable stent for the treatment of superficial femoral artery (SFA) occlusions in comparison with balloon angioplasty only as determined by binary restenosis at one year.
Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) is an examination similar to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) which uses a magnetic field and a contrast medium when needed to visualize blood flow in the arterial vessels throughout the body. Gadodiamide, a contrast medium, is already approved and is used to image blood vessels by directly injecting it into the vein, but this procedure has not been formally tested to image the aorto-iliac vessels using MR. The study is designed to determine the presence or absence of a relevant stenosis (ie greater than/equal to 50%) or occlusion in aorto-iliac arteries. Intra-arterial Digital Subtraction Angiography (IADSA) will be used as the standard of truth.
The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that AMG0001 treatment is safe and induces angiogenesis as detected by improved wound healing, reduction in amputation, improved pain at rest and hemodynamic measurement and to assess the effectiveness of the administrative method.
Primary objective: To evaluate whether clopidogrel 75 mg o.d. versus placebo (on a background of ASA 75-100 mg/d) will lead to an increased rate of primary patency, limb salvage and survival, in patients receiving a below knee bypass graft for the treatment of PAD. Secondary objectives: Comparison, between the two treatment groups, of : - Primary patency, - Assisted primary patency, - Cardiovascular death / myocardial infarction / stroke / any amputation above the ankle. - Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) changes from baseline
The study is designed to test the hypothesis that high dose candesartan treatment compared to quinapril is able to reduce intima hyperproliferation and the restenosis rate after stent angioplasty in peripheral occlusive artery disease.
This trial will test the hypothesis that inflammation and insulin resistance contribute to reduced walking distance in subjects with intermittent claudication by impairing vascular reactivity and skeletal muscle metabolic function.
The object of the study is to determine whether different doses of SCH 530348, when added to standard medical care in persons undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, will increase the risk of bleeding. A secondary objective is to determine whether patients treated with SCH 530348 have fewer cardiac events such as heart attack, bypass surgery, or death compared with those persons treated with the standard of care.
The purpose of this study is to directly compare the safety and efficacy of intra-thrombus alfimeprase 0.3 mg/kg with placebo in acute peripheral arterial occlusion (PAO) as measured by a 30 day open vascular free surgery rate.
This study aims to develop and refine the use of an intravascular wire to image plaque in the aorta, iliac and femoral artery using MRI. This project aims to use this increased resolution to identify the features within the plaque that is known to be associated with increased risk of plaque and vessel occlusion. The hypothesis is Intravascular MRI can detect and measure changes in response to therapy over time in the critical features in plaques in peripheral arteries of patients with atherosclerosis.
