View clinical trials related to Peripheral Arterial Disease.
Filter by:Atherosclerosis and diabetes are related to coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease. The mechanisms are related to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and inflammatory cytokine secretion. However, simply using antioxidant or anti-inflammatory therapies has no optimal outcomes. On the other hand, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) which has both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects could effectively attenuate ROS production and reduce vascular inflammation. Hence, we will investigate the effect of NAC treatment on the outcomes in patients with advanced atherosclerotic heart diseases and patients with diabetes combined with significant peripheral artery disease.
In this proposal, the investigators will demonstrate the feasibility and noninferiority of telerobotic ultrasonography as compared to traditional manual acquisition in performing a limited carotid Duplex examination and in carotid plaque detection.
GFH312 could be a novel therapeutic option in the acute/chronic inflammatory process of atherosclerosis and provides potential beneficial effects to microvasculature function for PAD patients with IC in addition to preventing ischemia-reperfusion injury. This phase II study is designed to explore the clinical safety and efficacy of GFH312 after multiple oral doses, to support further development in patients with PAD or other atherosclerotic diseases.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate improvement in flow mediated dilation (FMD), a functional endpoint associated with the progression of atherosclerosis, when switching from cigarettes to the Tobacco Heating System (THS) in subjects with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and/or coronary artery disease (CAD). The study is planned to be conducted in the US, Europe, and Asia.
This study is intended to help establish standard procedures for use of FFR in the peripheral arterial system and to evaluate the correlation of post-procedural FFR values and clinical outcomes in Superficial Femoral artery (SFA) interventions in subjects ages 18 to 79 with PAD.
This is a randomized controlled trial evaluating the impact of the mobile phone delivered SVS SET Program on utilization, functional capacity, symptoms and quality of life.
This PMCF study is designed as prospective, multi-center study to collect real-life data. The rationale of this study is to confirm and support the clinical safety and performance of the aforementioned products in 200 patients who will undergo an endovascular intervention within standard-of-care (SOC) where at least 1 of the following devices from AndraTec were used: The LOKUM-Quest guidewire, The LOKUM AMPLATZ guidewire, the Slider Hydrophilic Nitinol Guidewire, the AltoSa-XL PTA balloon, the AltoSa-XL GEMINI PTA Balloon, the OPTIMUS CoCr Stent , the OPTIMUS-CVS PTFE-Covered stent.
The femoro-popliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently treated vascular segment in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD), for which endovascular therapy became an established treatment option during the last decades. However, loss of primary patency and consecutive clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR) limit this procedure. Moreover, in the popliteal artery (PA), evidence about the best treatment strategy to prevent loss of patency and TLR is limited to only a few randomized controlled trials (RCT). Arterial deformations of the PA with its unique anatomical properties during leg flexion might explain the poor technical and clinical outcomes in this segment. Generally, a "leave nothing behind" strategy in the PA is preferred, but cannot be avoided in all cases due to e.g. flow limiting dissections or re-coil after balloon angioplasty. Basically two different self-expandable nitinol-based stent designs are available on the market. An interwoven nitinol and laser-cut nitinol stent. The interwoven nitinol stent has a higher radial force in comparison to the laser-cut stent and reveals higher patency rates in the FP arteries. However, a head-to-head comparison of these stents is missing and it remains unknown in which way different stent designs affect the deformation and hemodynamic behaviors of the PA during knee flexion.
This study will evaluate real-world performance of the CorPath GRX System in peripheral vascular interventions.
The primary objective is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Axys EX rotational atherectomy system in subjects with peripheral arterial disease who have de novo or non-stented restenotic obstructive lesions in the peripheral vasculature of the lower limbs.
