Active clinical trials for "Peripheral Vascular Diseases"

The objective of this clinical evaluation is to evaluate the immediate and long term (up to 12 months) outcome of the XIENCE PRIME Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (Abbott Vascular) in a controlled prospective investigation for the treatment of patients with critical limb ischemia due to the presence of lesions between 3cm and 10cm in length at the level of the below the knee arteries. Specifically the trial aims to illicit angiographic and ultrasound patency, clinical improvement, and adverse events associated with the use of this stent. The trial design is single armed, prospective, controlled trial run over 12 months of follow-up.

To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Absolute Pro® Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System and the Absolute Pro® LL Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System for the treatment of subjects with atherosclerotic de novo or restenotic lesions in the native superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or the native proximal popliteal artery (PPA). CAUTION: Absolute Pro® Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System and the Absolute Pro® LL Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent Systems are investigational devices. Limited by Federal (U.S.) law to investigational use only.

This is a clinical study of a new self-expanding stent (FlexStent®) designed specifically to cope with the extreme demands of the superficial femoral artery (SFA)/proximal popliteal artery. The arteries are often abbreviated as femoropopliteal. The intent of this study is to demonstrate that the FlexStent® Femoropopliteal Self-Expanding Stent System is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with peripheral arterial disease. Specifically, the FlexStent® shall meet or exceed the proposed safety and efficacy performance goals established for Femoropopliteal bare nitinol stents in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease.

To determine the safety and efficacy of the Omnilink Elite™ Peripheral Balloon-Expandable Stent System in subjects with atherosclerotic de novo or restenotic lesions in the native common iliac artery and/or native external iliac artery.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how systematic physical training after endovascular treatment influence the durability of the endovascular treatment and how it effects physical function, quality of life and future cardiovascular events.

This is a 26-week, prospective double-blind, randomized pilot trial of nebivolol versus an active control, metoprolol succinate, in patients with established lower-extremity peripheral artery disease, hypertension, and at least moderate risk for coronary artery disease.

The main objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SM-01 stenting (Cordis S.M.A.R.T.™ Nitinol Stent System) for the treatment of SFA lesions as compared to PTA (balloon angioplasty). If SM-01 is used in a PTA-bailout patient, the case will be assessed separately.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Cilostazol in slowing down the progression of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in ischemic stroke patients with PAD in Taiwan.

To determine whether in the laser Doppler flowmetric parameters characteristic of endothelial dysfunction at patients with clinically manifest atherosclerosis any change can be detected at plavix (clopidogrel) treatment. Laser Doppler /LD/ measurement combined with iontophoresis evaluates the effect of acetylcholine /ACh/ /endothelium dependent/ and sodium nitroprusside /NSP/ /endothelium independent/ on the microcirculation of the skin

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the propionyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride tablets among Chinese population in comparison with the placebo, for treatment of the peripheral arterial diseases (intermittent claudication) with oral supplementation of 2g daily for a 4 months continuous administration.
