Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Arterial Disease"

This is an interventional study assessing the effectiveness of Ticagrelor on the reduction of thrombus burden using optical coherence tomography in patients undergoing peripheral artery stenting.

The PDA-002-DFU-002 trial is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, dose range finding study. The study will enroll approximately 133 subjects in four treatment groups. The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of PDA-002 administered intramuscular (IM) in subjects who have DFU with and without PAD. The secondary objective is to explore potential clinical efficacy by assessing changes in vascular parameters such as Ankle-Brachial Index and Toe-Brachial Index (ABI and/or TBI), Transcutaneous oxygen measurements (TcPO2).

This study was designed to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of ACZ885 on the leg artery structure and physical activity in patients with atherosclerotic peripheral artery disease and leg pain from walking.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of metformin on functional capacity (pain-free and maximum walking times) in individuals with peripheral artery disease (PAD)-related intermittent claudication.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the intake of Vitamin D has a positive effect on walking ability of patients with peripheral artery occlusive disease. Skeletal muscle fibers change morphology in peripheral artery occlusive disease. In patients with Vitamin D-deficiency there are also changes of skeletal muscle fibers. The investigators have the hypothesis that patients with peripheral artery occlusive disease with subsequent changes of muscle fibers morphology of calf muscles might take profit of the administration of Vitamin D in combination with training.

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects over 8 million individuals in the United States alone. This is a form of atherosclerosis in which plaques preferentially build up inside the arteries of the legs to limit blood flow. These patients are at high risk for heart attack and stroke, with at least half dying from coronary artery disease. Our understanding of the causes of PAD remains incomplete. The renin-angiotensin hormone system is one mechanism known to contribute to atherosclerosis. Pharmacologic blockade of the hormone angiotensin II is beneficial in forms of atherosclerosis, including peripheral arterial disease, to improve blood vessel damage and functional outcomes. These therapies also increase circulating levels of angiotensin-(1-7), a hormone that dilates blood vessels. Angiotensin-(1-7) improves blood vessel function and reduces inflammation to protect against atherosclerosis in animal models; however, there are no clinical data in patients with atherosclerosis. The overall goal of this project is to examine the cardiovascular effects of angiotensin-(1-7) in PAD.

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy (by monitoring the wound size reduction of Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease-related clinically relevant ulcers) and safety (by monitoring adverse events) of one dose of allo-APZ2-PAOD administered intramuscularly into an affected lower leg of patients with Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease.

The primary objective of the VBX 17-04 registry is to collect post-market safety and performance data of the GORE® VIABAHN® VBX Balloon Expandable Endoprosthesis (VBX Stent Graft) in peripheral vessels in patients who require interventional treatment

The purpose of this study is to apply Avazzia micro-current stimulation to patients with chronic, non-healing wounds to determine if this therapy is effective in perfusion and bacterial measurements.

The objective is to ensure the pro-active collection of information on quality, safety and performance of FlowOx™ after it is placed on the market. The study will be carried out in a patient population with peripheral artery disease (claudicatio intermittens) to confirm its usefulness and in particular gather information for further improvements of the device related to this patient population. The data collected from the use of the CE-marked FlowOX™ device are change of walking distance, quality of life, and the patient's compliance.
