Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Arterial Disease"

This was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority clinical study with the primary objective of validating the safety and efficacy of the Suture-Mediated Closure System for percutaneous closure of the common femoral artery puncture site.

This study aims to conduct a randomized, double blind, randomised controlled multicentre trial of sirolimus drug coated balloon versus standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for the treatment of below the knee arterial disease.

A prospective, single center, single arm non-randomized trial collecting safety and effectiveness data for the ABLUMINUS DES System to treat BTK lesions in subjects with CLI.

To evaluate the safety and performance of the EVSS in patients with symptomatic peripheral vascular disease from stenosis or occlusion of the femoropopliteal artery

GIFT is a pilot, randomized, double-blinded clinical trial that will examine the effects of unacylated ghrelin on walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) compared to placebo. Preliminary evidence suggests that unacylated ghrelin may improve blood flow to the extremities and promote improved skeletal muscle growth and energy use. A total of 30 participants with PAD will be randomized to one of two groups: unacylated ghrelin injections or placebo injections . Participants will self-administer the study drug or placebo subcutaneously once daily for four months. The primary outcome is change in six-minute walk distance between baseline and 4-month follow-up

The population of older Veterans with non-traumatic lower limb amputation is growing. Following lower limb amputation, asymmetrical movements persist during walking and likely contribute to disabling sequelae including secondary pain conditions, poor gait efficiency, impaired physical function, and compromised skin integrity of the residual limb. This study seeks to address chronic gait asymmetry by evaluating the efficacy of two error-manipulation gait training programs to improve gait symmetry for Veterans with non-traumatic lower limb amputation. Additional this study will evaluate the potential of error-manipulation training programs to improve secondary measures of disability and residual limb skin health. Ultimately, this study aims to improve conventional prosthetic rehabilitation for Veterans with non-traumatic amputation through gait training programs based in motor learning principles, resulting in improved gait symmetry and lower incidence of long-term disability after non-traumatic lower limb amputation.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) bare plasmid injection for local intramuscular injection in the treatment of patients with severe lower limb hemorrhagic disease (Rutherford grade 4)

The primary goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a community-based structured exercise therapy (CB-SET) intervention, which could be accessible and easily disseminated, adds benefit to peripheral artery disease (PAD) patients undergoing revascularization (REVASC) to improve their function and cardiovascular health.

This study is a prospective, interventional, multicenter 1:1 randomized trial. The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Magic Touch PTA sirolimus drug-coated balloon in comparison to the treatment with POBA (control device) in patients with advanced infrapopliteal artery disease.

The aim of the study is to analyze the effect of 12 weeks of arm crank exercise (ACE) training on cardiovascular function in PAD patients, and compare it with treadmill exercise (TE), the actual recommendation for this patients. In this clinical trial, 45 patients will be allocated randomly in three experimental groups: ACE training, TE and control group. ACE and TE groups will perform exercises twice a week with the intensity equivalent to 13- 15 on Borg's Subjective Perception Exertion Scale. Patients in control group will meet twice a week, however only to perform diverse activities and group living, without any type of exercise involved. All groups will be encouraged to increase their levels of activity, as they are usually guided in medical consultations. Before and after 12 weeks of intervention, cardiovascular function, functional capacity, cognition, and quality of life will be assessed.
