Critical Limb Ischemia, Peripheral Arterial Disease, Peripheral Vascular Disease
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Critical Limb Ischemia focused on measuring Critical Limb Ischemia, Peripheral Arterial Disease, Peripheral Vascular Disease, CLI, PAD, PVD, Angiogenesis, Stem Cells, Cell Therapy, Limb Salvage, Amputation, Leg Pain
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Competent to give consent
- No current malignancy or history of previous malignancy within the last five years, with the exception of adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer (evidence of standard preventative cancer screenings required)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Major tissue loss (Rutherford Category 6)

- Uncompensated congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class IV) and/or other conditions that preclude general anesthesia
- Myocardial infarction or stroke within last 90 days
- Elevated liver function tests (AST or ALT more than twice normal upper limit)

- Current infection of index leg
- Pregnant women (negative urine pregnancy test required)
- Lower extremity venous disease with pitting edema in index leg
- Recent history (in the 6 months prior to screening) of bone marrow disease or treatment with any medication or procedure which adversely affects the bone marrow and would prohibit transplantation
- Current osteomyelitis in index leg
- Existing HIV diagnosis
- Organ transplant recipients
- Known terminal disease process with life expectancy less than one year
- Severe concomitant disease(s) or any additional condition(s) which the investigator feels constitute(s) criteria for exclusion of a particular subject

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Experimental
Sham Comparator
Concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA)
Placebo control (sham)
Collection of autologous bone marrow aspirate and point-of-care concentration using the bone marrow concentration device, followed by intramuscular injection of concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) into the affected limb
Placebo procedure (sham) consists of simulated bone marrow aspiration followed by simulated intramuscular injections into the affected limb
