Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Arterial Disease"

Verify the effectiveness and safety of rapamycin coated balloon dilation catheter for the treatment of dialysis pathway stenosis or blockage lesions.

MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) can be a potential therapeutic target of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Recent evidence suggests the role of miR-210 and oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of PAD and its association with mitochondrial function, oxidative metabolism, walking distances and quality of life. The protocol evaluates the mechanisms which miR-210 regulates oxidative stress and provides evidence of potential therapeutic strategies.

The objective of this all-comers registry is to explore the safety, efficacy, and cost-efficiency of the LUMINOR© DEB in de-novo and restenotic-FP lesions. For de-novo and restenotic lesions, especially for calcified and/or long lesions/occlusions, the use of debulking devices to improve recalibration and drug penetration will be evaluated in a specific sub-group.

BIOTRONIK cobalt chromium balloon-expandable Dynetic-35 stent in association with Passeo-35 Xeo peripheral dilation catheter for the treatment of peripheral iliac lesions

The purpose of this single-arm, exploratory study is to evaluate safety and performance of treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI) with the ULTRASCORE™ Focused Force balloon. Patients with CLI in below the knee vessels will receive a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with the device and will be followed up for 12 months.

A significant challenge in medical care is atherosclerotic occlusion of peripheral arteries, such as lower extremities and brachiocephalic arteries, which can eventually lead to loss of limbs or fatal ischemic strokes. Revascularizing surgical interventions can restore the lumen of the arteries and provide an effective way to treat such patients. However, up to a third of patients need re-intervention or experience cardiovascular complications within a year after surgery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of adding the natural dietary supplement Allicor to conventional treatment on the incidence of cardiovascular complications and treatment effectiveness 12 months after revascularization. Another valuable area of investigation is the search for predictors of long-term cardiovascular complications after revascularization, which could be markers of inflammation and heteroplasmy levels in the patient's mitochondrial genome.

Prospective, nonrandomized, multicenter, national, multidisciplinary, real-world data collection with the aim to evaluate the short-term safety and efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy in the treatment of steno-obstructive disease of the common femoral artery

Aim of the MANCO study is to establish for once and for all that monitoring the effect of heparin during NCVI (Non-Cardiac Vascular Interventions) is essential to ensure the individual patient of safe and tailor-made anticoagulation. Not measuring the effect of the administered heparin exposes the patient to unnecessary risks of thrombo-embolic and bleeding complications. First aim of the MANCO study is to prove that the standardized bolus of 5000 IU of heparin, used by 90% of vascular specialists in Europe, results in inadequate anticoagulation in more than 80% of patients. These measurements will be performed using the Hemostasis Management System by Medtronic.

Patients undergoing semi-elective lower extremity major amputation from complications associated with atherosclerotic limb ischemia will received intra-muscular injections of allogeneic Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in the leg above and below the point of amputation to prevent ischemic wound complications after surgery and decrease the incidence of revision and further amputation. Cohort Groups 1-4 will serve as controls.

This study is a 3-month, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial designed to address the efficacy of the DASH dietary program combined with a home-based exercise program, quantified by a step activity monitor, to improve exercise and vascular outcome measures in patients with PAD.
