Filter by:Background: Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) has been popularized as a simple, effective and cheap treatment achieving 50-70% symptomatic patency rates in patients with peripheral occlusive disease.. However, the fact remains that the indication for performing PTA are still more based on opinions than on scientific data. The purpose of the trial was to randomize patients primarily referred for intermittent claudication into two groups: One group was offered conservative treatment; the other group was offered conservative treatment combined with PTA. Primary outcome: The patient quality of life. Secondary outcome:Pain-free walking distance; pain-score; death; amputation; changes in relevant biomarkers
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.
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety (what are the side effects) and efficacy (how well does it work) of Magnevist (the study drug) used for MRI of the infrarenal aorta and peripheral arteries. The results will be compared to the results of MRI taken without Magnevist, and with the results of your X-ray angiography.
A comparison of a fibrin sealant versus manual compression in stopping surgical bleeding during vascular procedures.
The purpose of this Phase 2 clinical research study is to examine the safety of an experimental gene transfer agent, Ad2/HIF-1α/VP16, and its ability to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels (a process called angiogenesis) in an attempt to improve the flow of blood in the legs of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Specifically, this study will enroll patients with severe intermittent claudication (IC) which is the stage of PAD in which a patient's walking ability is severely limited, causing pain in the legs upon exercise due to inadequate blood flow to the muscles of the lower limbs.
This is a phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which subjects with intermittent claudication (IC) will be randomized to receive a single treatment of VLTS-934 (84 mL, or a total of 420 mg poloxamer 188) or placebo (84 mL saline) administered as 21 intramuscular (IM) injections of 2 mL each, bilaterally into the lower extremities during one procedure to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and potential activity of VLTS-934 as compared with a saline placebo.
NM-702 oral tablets are being developed for the treatment of Intermittent Claudication, a primary early stage indication of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This trial is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of 4 mg and/or 8 mg NM-702 taken twice a day (BID) for 24 weeks to see if it improves peak walking time (PWT) more than placebo for the treatment of Intermittent Claudication.
The purpose of this study is to compare the dose response and safety of Niacin ER/Lovastatin, Niaspan® and Lovastatin with each other, in subjects with leg pain caused by a narrowing of their leg arteries. At least 870 subjects, with leg pain caused by a narrowing of their leg arteries will take part in this study. Both Niaspan and lovastatin (Mevacor®) are approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat high cholesterol. Niacin ER/Lovastatin (Advicor®), a combination of these two drugs, is also approved by the FDA to treat high cholesterol. The use of Niacin ER/Lovastatin to treat narrowing of leg arteries and relieve “intermittent claudication” (leg pain caused by narrowing of the arteries in the leg) is considered investigational. An investigational use is one that is not approved by the FDA.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VLTS-589 compared with placebo, administered bilaterally to the lower extremities, in subjects with intermittent claudication and to determine the effect of VLTS-589 in peak walking time (PWT) for subjects receiving VLTS-589 compared with subjects receiving placebo.
Approximately 30 patients will be enrolled in this 12-week study designed to assess the effect of continuous subcutaneous Remodulin therapy on the outcome of infrainguinal bypass grafts in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI). Portions of the study will be conducted in the hospital and on an out-patient basis. The study will be conducted at multiple centers.
