Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Arterial Disease"

The study is intended to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using the Intact Vascular (Innovasc) Tack-It Endovascular Dissection Repair System (Tack Intravascular Staple System) in patients with vascular flaps in the infrainguinal due post-angioplasty dissection.

Collect confirmatory evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the Balloon LIFESTREAM™ Stent Graft for the treatment of stenoses and occlusion in the iliac arteries.

The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate, in a controlled setting, the long-term (up to 12 months) safety and efficacy of the BeGraft Peripheral Stent Graft System (Bentley InnoMed) in clincial settings post CE-certification when used according to the indications of the IFU.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the procedural safety and effectiveness of the Phoenix Atherectomy™ System for the treatment of de novo and restenotic atherosclerotic lesions located in the native peripheral arteries. The Phoenix Atherectomy™ System is intended for use in atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. The intended peripheral vessels include the Superficial Femoral, Popliteal, and Infrapopliteal arteries. The system is not intended for use in the coronary, carotid, iliac or renal vasculature. The results of this study will be used to support a 510(k) submission to the Food and Drug Administration.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether intramuscular injections of NL003 into the calf is safe and effective in the treatment of critical limb ischemia

Based upon evidence of efficacy and safety of both cilostazol and probucol administration in independent randomized controlled trials in PAD and CAD, the present trial seeks to investigate the effect of concomitant administration of cilostazol and probucol on FMD compared to each drug individually, as well as to evaluate biomarker measures and safety indices in this context.

The PROPEL study will test the hypothesis that GM-CSF combined with supervised treadmill exercise will significantly improve functional performance in patients with PAD more than GM-CSF alone or supervised treadmill exercise alone. In addition to identifying novel therapeutic options for patients with PAD, the current proposal is expected to identify mechanisms by which functional impairment is improved in patients with PAD.

The purpose of the ESPRIT I Clinical Investigation is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ESPRIT BVS in subjects with symptomatic claudication from occlusive vascular disease of the superficial femoral (SFA) or common or external iliac arteries.

The DURABILITY Iliac study is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized study confirming the safety and effectiveness of stenting using the Protégé® EverFlex™ and Protégé® GPS™ Self-Expanding Stent Systems for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the common and/or external iliac arteries.

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a highly prevalent public health problem that results from progressive atherosclerosis of arteries in the lower extremities. PAD is also associated with major detrimental effects on quality of life and functional status, and is the most important cause of limb amputation. More importantly, PAD is a major manifestation of cardiovascular disease and a potent predictor of myocardial infarction, stroke and death. Despite its frequent occurrence, little is known about the natural history of PAD in Hispanics who represent 12.5% of the United States. Because access to health care is limited among Hispanics, CBPR is the ideal process to reach this target population. The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate community-based strategies of detection and treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in Hispanics. The proposed project consists of two phases: a cross-sectional phase (PAD detection), followed by a randomization phase.During the PAD detection study , the prevalence and severity of PAD in this population will be determined. Specific risk factors associated with PAD among the Hispanic participants will be identified. During the second phase patients will be enrolled in a randomized, non-blinded trial comparing a community-based risk factor modification and supervised exercise program versus usual care for PAD. These individuals will undergo a baseline evaluation similar to the one obtained during the first phase of the study, but will also include functional testing of the lower extremities.
