Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the addition of warfarin (a blood-thinning medication) to an antiplatelet therapy like aspirin is better than antiplatelet therapy alone (i.e. usual treatment) for the prevention of leg surgery, heart attacks, stroke and death in people with peripheral vascular disease.
The Zilver® PTX™ Drug Eluting Vascular Stent is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic vascular disease of the above-the-knee femoropopliteal artery (ranging from 4 mm to 9 mm in reference vessel diameter) for lesions up to 7 cm long. The clinical trial is stratified by lesion length. The trial will be conducted in 2 phases, with Phase 1 enrolling patients with lesions less than 7 cm long. Phase 2 of the trial will include longer lesions (up to 14 cm long) and will be initiated upon approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
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.
The purpose of this study is to determine if bone marrow derived adult stem cells are safe and effective in inducing development of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) in the legs of patients with severe peripheral vascular disease.
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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of the Celacade™ system in patients with intermittent claudication.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of nutrition, a supervised treadmill exercise program, and supervised progressive resistance training program on peripheral arterial disease.
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.
This trial is for patients with acute occlusion of one of the arteries supplying blood to the leg. The trial is designed to determine the safety and activity of a novel clot dissolving (thrombolytic) drug (alfimeprase).
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.
