About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-center, Single Arm Study With a Nitinol Self-Expanding Paclitaxel-Eluting Stent in the Treatment of Atherosclerotic Tibial-peroneal Arteries

Being tested

Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary patency

    Primary patency rate at 6 months, defined by duplex ultrasound measurement of peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 at the target lesion(s) with no clinically-driven reintervention within the treated segment, verified by Core Lab

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Primary patency

    Primary patency at 12 months, defined as absence of restenosis (≥50% stenosis) or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on angiography, verified by Core Lab

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Technical success

    Technical success, defined as the ability to cross and dilate the lesion to achieve residual angiographic stenosis no greater than 30% by visual assessment

    Measured: procedure (day 0)

  2. Procedural success

    Procedural success, defined as the ability to achieve <30% final residual stenosis of the target lesion by visual estimation (angio) and the absence of any in-hospital Major Adverse Events (MAE, defined as clinically-driven target vessel revascularization, major unplanned amputation of the treated limb, and all-cause mortality)

    Measured: Procedure (day 0)

  3. MAE (Major Adverse Event)

    MAE at 1, 6 and 12 months

    Major Adverse Events (MAE) include (but are not limited to)

    • death
    • myocardial infarction
    • stroke
    • emergent surgical revascularization of the target vessel
    • repeat vascularization of the target vessel
    • major amputation
    • bleeding complication requiring transfusion

    Measured: 1, 6 and 12 months

  4. SAE (Serious Adverse Event)

    Other SAEs at discharge, 1, 6 and 12 months

    A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is defined as an Adverse Event which:

    • results in death
    • is life-threatening
    • results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
    • requires in-patient hospitalization or unduly prolonged hospitalization.
    • necessitates an intervention to prevent a permanent impairment of a body function or permanent damage to a body structure.
    • is a congenital abnormality/birth defect, a fetal distress or fetal death
    • results in malignancy

    Measured: discharge, 1, 6 and 12 months

  5. Improvement of Rutherford classification

    Improvement in Rutherford Clinical Category at 12 months, defined as an improvement in clinical status indicated by a decrease of one or more in Rutherford Clinical Category at 12 months compared to baseline, that is attributable to the treated limb (in cases of bilateral disease)

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index

    Improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index at 12 months, defined as an increase in the ankle-brachial index (ABI) at 1 year compared to baseline in subjects with compressible arteries and baseline ABI<0.9

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Primary Patency

    Primary patency rate at 1 and 12 months, defined by duplex ultrasound measurement of peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 at the target lesion(s) with no clinically-driven reintervention within the treated segment

    Measured: 1 and 12 months

  8. Secondary patency

    Secondary patency rate at 1, 6 and 12 months, defined by duplex ultrasound peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention

    Measured: 1, 6 and 12 months

  9. Limb salvage rate

    Limb salvage rate, defined as 1 minus major amputation rate (major amputation is defined as at or above ankle, as opposed to minor amputation being at or below metatarsus preserving functionality of foot

    Measured: Procedure, 1, 6 and 12 months

  10. Target Lesion Revascularisation

    Target lesion revascularization (TLR), defined as a repeat intervention to maintain or re-establish patency within the region of the treated arterial vessel plus 5mm proximal and distal to the treated lesion edge.

    Measured: Procedure (day 0), 1, 6 and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Self-expandable drug eluting stent in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by Flanders Medical Research Program at 5 sites in Belgium.

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 12 inclusion and 16 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 9 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Belgium. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 patency (time frame: 6 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01630070, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Mar 2015.
