139 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The primary objective of this study is to collect and evaluate clinical evidence supporting the safety and performance of the Indigo™ Aspiration System in a patient population with lower extremity acute limb ischemia (LE ALI).
Critical limb ischemia (CLI), is the most severe form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and clinically is characterized by pain at rest or non-healing ulcers of the lower extremities. Also, is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and amputation. Feringa et al. demonstrated in a study of 1,374 patients with PAD that all cause and cardiac related mortality rates were lower in patients at higher statin dose and lower levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL). Patients with CLI statin therapy and lower LDL levels improve amputation-free survival and patency after revascularization procedures. In the FOURIER trial, LDL cholesterol reduction with the PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab in patients with symptomatic PAD with or without prior myocardial infarction or stroke was associated with improved major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and major adverse limb events (MALE) at 2-years. The effect of evolocumab in patients with CLI , after a recent arterial revascularization and active wounds is not known, also it is not known whether the cholesterol lowering effect of evolocumab in this group of patients is equivalent to that of non-CLI PAD patients and what the effect is on arterial perfusion, wound healing and other biological markers of vascular physiology. This study aims to investigate the effect of evolocumab in patients with CLI on maximally tolerated lipid lowering therapy with a statin for one year after an index CLI event, requiring revascularization.
The primary objective of this study is to collect safety and performance data on the Indigo Aspiration System in a patient population with lower extremity acute limb ischemia (LE ALI).
Non-randomized, multi-center, longitudinal study of healthy subjects and subjects with PAD who are scheduled for ABI, TBI, and either Duplex Ultrasound or Angiographic assessments in a vascular clinic.
TACT3a is a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to test a novel therapy, edetate disodium-based chelation of environmentally acquired toxic metals, to reduce cardiovascular events including amputation in high-risk diabetic patients.
A Phase III study of PLX-PAD for CLI patients with minor tissue loss who are unsuitable for revascularization has been initiated (PLX-CLI-03, PACE study). In parallel, this expanded access program (EAP) will be conducted to allow the treatment of patients who are ineligible to be enrolled in the PACE study. The EAP treatment is administered in addition to standard of care of the subjects.PLX-PAD 300×106 cells in a mixture containing 10% DMSO, 5% human serum albumin and Plasma-Lyte, will be administered via 30 IM injections (0.5 mL each) delivered into the leg twice,at 8 weeks interval. The locations of injections of the PLX-PAD are detailed in Appendix 1. Antihistamine treatment should be given at least 1 hour and no more than 1.5 hours prior to PLXPAD administration to ensure coverage for 24 hours, and as long as necessary post PLX-PAD treatment. Consider treatment with second generation H1 inhibitors such as Cetirizine 10 mg once per day.Subjects will be followed-up until 12 months after the 2nd treatment according to the schedule of routine medical visits at the medical institutions. In addition to this routine follow-up, a phone call will be made 12 months after 2nd treatment to inquire on the occurrence of subsequent intervention, amputation, or death.
Single phased global, prospective, multicenter clinical trial designed to demonstrate a superior patency rate and acceptable safety in below the knee arteries with lesions treated with the DES BTK Vascular Stent System vs. percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA).
A prospective pilot study examining nutritional supplements among vascular surgery patients with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI). CLI patients have a high rate of malnutrition and has the potential to benefit greatly from nutritional intervention. The investigators plan to evaluate nutrition and functional status of patients by assessing objective lab values and the use of the hand grip strength test. Providing perioperative nutritional supplements to patients has potentially improved their nutritional status, which in turn may improve the patient's clinical status after surgery.
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effect of number of remote limb ischemic conditioning (RLIC) cycles on enhancing learning in neurologically intact young adults.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if remote limb ischemic conditioning (RLIC) can enhance learning of a motor (balance) and an ecologically valid, complex cognitive-motor (driving) task, and increase skeletal muscle strength in neurologically-intact young adults.
This is a Pilot Trial Using Chelation Therapy for Limb Preservation in Diabetic Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia.
Given the importance of understanding CLI patients' outcomes and existing gaps in knowledge, there is a pressing need to collect observational data on treatment patterns, adherence to performance measures, and outcomes that are relevant to patients and clinicians. To address this need, the current study will pilot test the research infrastructure and data elements needed to build a larger, national study collecting of the CLI population. It will also provide much-needed preliminary information to identify areas of action that can be targeted in quality improvement programs for this population. Most importantly, it will provide data on health status outcomes in patients with CLI, as a function of individual patient characteristics (demographics, socio-economic and clinical background) and the treatments that patients have undergone. The PORTRAIT-CLI study will also be well equipped to identify potential disparities in the provision of care and patients' outcomes as a function of patient's characteristics.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the utility of the FlowMet™ device in the assessment of perfusion in subjects suspected of or being treated for critical limb ischemia, in comparison to other gold standard technologies, such as ankle brachial pulse index (ABI), skin perfusion pressure (SPP), toe brachial pulse index (TBI), transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcP02), and angiography currently in use in the clinic.
This will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter, Phase III study.The study aims to evaluate the Efficacy, Tolerability and Safety of Intramuscular Injections of PLX PAD for the Treatment of Subjects with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) with Minor Tissue Loss (Rutherford Category 5) who are Unsuitable for Revascularization.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of intramuscular injection of ACP-01, comprised of blood-derived autologous ACPs, in subjects with critical limb ischemia who are receiving standard of care therapy and have no endovascular or surgical revascularization options.
This study will continue to evaluate the performance of the MarrowStim™ PAD Kit to treat subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI) caused by severe PAD.
The purpose of this study is to learn about protecting the brain from dangerous low blood flow.
The purpose of this study is to measure the concentration of cells and proteins in the patient's blood during administration of Nuopogen (Filgrastim), a medication that is FDA approved for stem cell mobilization, in combination with a programmed pneumatic compression device (PPCD) (Art-Assist Device). The Art-Assist Device is an FDA approved device that promotes blood flow in the patient's legs. A patient will be prescribed this device and this drug to help improve the poor circulation in his/her leg. The use of Nuopogen along with the Art-Assist Device has not been approved by the FDA and is considered experimental. This study is not designed to find out how well the Art-Assist Device works, nor how well the drug works in mobilizing stem cells. Instead, it is a study of how well cells lining blood vessels in calf respond to increases in shear stress, and how well the increase in the population of certain cells in the blood stream effect how the new blood vessels will form. It is important for clinical reasons, and for the purposes of this study, that the patient uses the Art-Assist Device as prescribed on a daily basis as discussed with the patient's doctor
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Tissue Genesis® Icellator Cell Isolation System™ in Critical Limb Ischemia. The Icellator System™ device removes certain cells from the adipose (fat) tissue which will be used to treat patients with blockages in the arteries of their lower legs that may require a future amputation, which is caused by severe peripheral artery disease (PAD). The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with cells that have been removed from the Icellator System™ device will reduce the number of major amputations and deaths in a six month time period.
This is a single center, prospective, randomized, unblinded, open-label, active controlled pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor plus aspirin versus clopidogrel plus aspirin in patients with Rutherford Stage IV to VI PAD that have undergone a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of the lower extremities in the past 2 weeks.
Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AMG0001 in Subjects with Critical Limb Ischemia.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, multi center, patient sponsored study of Adipose-Derived Stromal Cell (ASC) implantation via intramuscular injections in patients who have critical limb ischemia not amenable for revascularization. The intent of this clinical study is to answer the questions: 1) Is the proposed treatment safe and 2) Is treatment effective in improving the disease pathology of patients with diagnosed critical limb ischemia ASCs will be collected from the patient's adipose-derived tissue (body fat). Using local anesthesia, Liposuction will be performed to collect the adipose tissue specimen. The adipose tissue is then transferred to the laboratory for separation of the adipose tissue derived stem cells. In addition, peripheral blood will be collected for isolation of platelet rich plasma, which are then combined with the ASC's for intramuscular injection into the lower limb.
Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) is defined as limb pain that occurs at rest, or impending limb loss that is caused by severe compromise of blood flow to the affected extremity. CLI is a major cause of death and disability (secondary to myocardial infarction, stroke and amputation). The mortality in patients with CLI approaches 25% and 50% at one and five years respectively. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) in patients treated with aspirin and clopidogrel (previously referred to as "resistance") is associated with an increased risk of recurrent cardiovascular events after percutaneous coronary interventions and acute coronary syndromes. The prevalence and significance of High on-treatment Platelet Reactivity (HPR) in patients with critical limb ischemia treated with aspirin and/or clopidogrel is not known. The investigators project aims to investigate the prevalence of HPR (to aspirin and clopidogrel) in one hundred patients with diagnosis of critical limb ischemia encountered at University of Southern California (USC) affiliated hospitals (Los Angeles County Hospital and Keck Hospital of University of Southern California).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MST-188 in subjects receiving catheter-directed rt-PA for acute lower limb ischemia and to evaluate whether treatment with MST-188 results in more rapid thrombolysis of the occlusion and more rapid tissue perfusion in the effected blood vessel.
Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) is defined as limb pain that occurs at rest, or impending limb loss that is caused by severe compromise of blood flow to the affected extremity. CLI is a major cause of death and disability (secondary to myocardial infarction, stroke and amputation). The mortality in patients with CLI approaches 13-25% and 50% at one and five years respectively. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) in patients treated with aspirin and clopidogrel is associated with increased risk of recurrent cardiovascular events after percutaneous coronary interventions and coronary syndromes. Preliminary studies suggest that the prevalence of HPR in patients with critical limb ischemia treated with aspirin and clopidogrel is as high a 78.5%. In patients with coronary artery disease ticagrelor overcomes non-responsiveness to clopidogrel. However, the antiplatelet effect of ticagrelor in patients with critical limb ischemia is unknown.
This study will compare the effectiveness of best available surgical treatment with best available endovascular treatment in adults with critical limb ischemia (CLI) who are eligible for both treatment options.
