About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group, Efficacy and Safety Study of NV1FGF in Patients With Severe Peripheral Artery Occlusive Disease.

This study is a double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NV1FGF, a pCOR plasmid constructed by inserting the gene coding for the FGF compared to placebo in patients with severe Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease, Fontaine's stage IV. The efficacy was assessed by the complete healing of at least one ulcer in the treated limb, 25 week post-baseline and secondary by the rate of amputation and death.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • XRP0038 (NV1FGF)Drug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary efficacy parameter: ulcer healing.

  2. Ulcers will be evaluated at each visit primarily by collecting quantitative and qualitative information.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Hemodynamic parameters:ABI, TcPO2

  2. Pain

  3. Amputation (Date of amputation, Indication for amputation, amputation level (minor and major)

  4. Death

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing XRP0038 (NV1FGF) in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by Sanofi at 6 sites in 6 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and 1 more country. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary efficacy parameter: ulcer healing.. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00368797, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Nov 2008; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
