Trial summary

Sildenafil has shown potential effects both on vasodilator mechanisms and as an inhibitor of the NO/GMPc Pain activation. The investigators aim at estimating the benefit of sildenafil in term of morbi-mortality in patients with arterial claudication on a multicenter prospective double blind study.

About this study

Official title: Reduction de la Morbi-mortalité Cardiovasculaire Chez l'artériopathe Claudicant Par le Sildenafil

Sildenafil has shown potential effects both on vasodilator mechanisms and as an inhibitor of the NO/GMPc Pain activation. The investigators aim at estimating the benefit of sildenafil in term of morbi-mortality in patients with arterial claudication on a multicenter prospective double blind study.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will ask to participate after oral and written information. Evaluation of walking capacity (self reported and treadmill measured), co-morbid condition and quality of life (WELCH, SF-36, Edinburg) will be performed at inclusion, after the first dose and at 3 months of oral treatment through sildenafil 100mg/day or placebo from inclusion to 3 months.

Indication for revascularisation will be evaluated at 3 months according to symptoms and walking capacity according to the Rutherford classification.

Primary endpoint is the proportion of patients showing either a fatal events (cardio-vascular or noncardiovascular) or hospitalisation for non fatal cardiovascular events at 6 and 9 months follow up from inclusion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Sildenafil in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by University Hospital, Angers at 1 site in France.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 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 1 site in France. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact pierre ABRAHAM, MD, PhD (+33 241353689, piabraham@chu-angers.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Morbi-mortality : combined criterion (Cardiovascular fatal and non fatal event Improvement of 1 stage) (time frame: 6 months). 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 13 Mar 2015.
