About this study

Official title: Effects of Paclitaxel on Intimal Hyperplasia Status Post Lower Extremity Revascularization

This is a single, one time, limited dose infusion of Paclitaxel, that will potentially prevent recurrent stenosis secondary to intimal hyperplasia when compared to the control group at 10 months.

Read the detailed description

The investigators study consists of enrolling subjects that are already scheduled to have the blood vessels in their legs re-opened. The entire study is considered standard of care, except the administration of Paclitaxel. Subjects will be consented prior to any study related procedures and prior to procedure. Subjects that meet inclusion/exclusion and the infusion of Paclitaxel has been given, will then be enrolled in the study. After the plaque area has been treated with either angioplasty (inflation of a balloon compacting it against the artery wall), stent (a wire mesh tube that presses the plaque against the artery wall and opens the artery), and/or atherectomy(removal of plaque from the artery), Dr Kelly, Dr. Schultz, Dr, Laurich, or Dr. Santos will then use an infusion balloon (a balloon with an outer layer that has holes that allows a medication to be given) to administer the Paclitaxel. Every time the infusion balloon is blown up, a single dose of medication (Paclitaxel) will be applied to the target lesion. This will be repeated until all of the target lesions have been treated or a maximum dose of 10 mg of Paclitaxel has been given. All persons enrolled in this study will be treated with Paclitaxel. Subjects are expected to attend all follow up visits. These visits would occur even if the subject were not on the trial. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) (done by measuring blood pressure at the ankle and in the arm while a person is at rest. This test indicates if leg blockages are present) and Duplexes (An ultrasound that measures blood flow rates through the vessels. This test will indicate if leg blockages are present) will be done at the follow up visits. Both of these tests and all follow up visits are considered standard of care and will be charged to the subject or subject's insurance.

What participants receive

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

  • PaclitaxelDrug

    Also called Taxol, Onxol

    Paclitaxel in addition to angioplasty, stenting or atherectomy Dosing will be based on the lesion surface area, and will be calculated using the following formula: dose= 22/7 X diameter (mm) X length (mm) X 3 micrograms/mm^3

    Paclitaxel Dosage:

    Superficial Femoral/Common Femoral: 2.4 mg/inflation of balloon* Popliteal: 1.8 mg/inflation of balloon* Tibial: 1.4 mg/inflation of balloon*

    • not to exceed 10mg total dose

What is being measured

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

  1. Evidence of Stenosis Lower Extremity Post Revascularization Using Ankle-Brachial Index Measurement at 10 Months

    The Ankle-Brachial Index is calculated as a ratio of the ankle blood pressure and the arm blood pressure. The ABI and Rutherford Classification will be assessed at 10 months post revascularization

    Measured: 10 months

  2. Rutherford Classification of Peripheral Arterial Disease

    Evidence of stenosis of lower extremity as measured by the Rutherford Classification post revascularization. The ABI and Rutherford Classification will be assessed at 10 months post revascularization with a lower Rutherford score indicating a better outcome.

    0 = Asymptomatic, 1 = Mild Claudication, 2 = Moderate Claudication, 3 = Severe Claudication, 4 = Ischemic Rest Pain, 5 = Minor Tissue Loss, 6 = Ulceration or Gangrene

    Measured: 10 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Freedom From Amputation Event

    Measured: up to 10 months

  2. Freedom From Target Vessel Revascularization Event

    Measured: up to 10 months

  3. Freedom From Binary Restenosis

    Measured: 10 months

  4. Number of Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: Up to 19 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Paclitaxel in people with Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by Patrick Kelly at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 24 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 May 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Evidence of Stenosis Lower Extremity Post Revascularization Using Ankle-Brachial Index Measurement at 10 Months (time frame: 10 months). 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?
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 24 May 2016.
