Filter by: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.
To evaluate common genetic variations, that in combination with exposure to tobacco smoke, may modify the risk of atherosclerosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if Niacin ER/Lovastatin, at two different doses, compared to diet control (this group will receive a tablet containing 50 mg. of immediate-release niacin) is a safe and effective medicine in subjects with leg pain caused by a narrowing of their leg arteries, a condition called intermittent claudication. At least 366 subjects with leg pain caused by a narrowing of their leg arteries will participate in this study. Niacin ER/Lovastatin is a combination of two FDA (United States Food and Drug Administration) approved cholesterol modifying medications: Niaspan® (extended-release niacin) and lovastatin, a statin (the same medicine found in Mevacor®). Niacin ER/Lovastatin was approved by the FDA under the name of Advicor® for use in the treatment of elevated cholesterol. The use of Niacin ER/Lovastatin in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease and symptomatic relief of intermittent claudication is considered investigational. An investigational use is one that is not approved by the FDA.
The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the safety of continuous and daily subcutaneous Remodulin therapy in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) with no planned vascular interventional procedures; and to determine the effect of Remodulin on wound healing and treadmill walk distance.
The primary purpose of this study was to assess the overall safety of different dose regimens of AMG0001 (HGF transferred via plasmid vector) as well as evaluate the improvement of blood perfusion in subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI). This study also evaluated the improvement in wound healing without adverse effects on the quality of life, as well as the potential reduction of amputation, mortality and rest pain in the CLI population.
Ecraprost in lipid emulsion is being developed for the treatment of Critical leg ischemia (CLI), which is the most severe form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD); This trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the drug in the treatment of CLI.

This is the first clinical research trial in which intravenous Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1 is a vasoactive hormone) will be used as supportive treatment along with the angioplasty procedure to treat or open up a blocked artery within one lower limb or the most affected of two limbs in subjects with Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease.
To examine the epidemiology of renal disease and its relationship to cardiovascular disease.
