What is being measured

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

  1. 12-month Primary Patency Rate

    Primary patency is defined as no significant reduction of flow detectable by Duplex ultrasound through the index lesion and no further clinically driven target vessel revascularization performed in the interim. Significant reduction of flow is binary restenosis defined as the diameter stenosis >50% with a peak systolic velocity ratio >2.4 as measured by Duplex ultrasound.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. 12-month Limb Salvage Rate

    Limb Salvage is defined as the freedom from secondary major amputation

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Index Limb Ischemia at 6-month Follow up

    Index Limb Ischemia is defined by Rutherford/Becker Classification categories 3 through 6.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Index Limb Ischemia at 12-month Follow up

    Index Limb Ischemia is defined by Rutherford/Becker Classification categories 3 through 6.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Major Adverse Events at 12-month Post Procedure

    Major adverse events included death, index limb ischemia, index limb amputation, clinically driven target lesion revascularization , and significant embolic events, which were defined as causing end-organ damage.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing plaque excision system and Stent in people with Atherosclerosis and Ischemia, run by Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 13 Jul 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 China. 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?

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?

12-month Primary Patency Rate (time frame: 12 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 NCT02514460, 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 13 Jul 2016.
