About this study

Official title: A Randomized, International, Multicenter, Parallel Group, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Actovegin 12-Week Treatment Given First Intravenously and Subsequently Orally in Subjects With Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease Fontaine Stage IIB

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of actovegin in participants with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) Fontaine Stage IIB.

Read the detailed description

The study will enroll approximately 366 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups in 1:1 ratio:

  1. Actovegin
  2. Placebo (dummy inactive substance) - this is a tablet/intravenous infusion that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient

All participants will be asked to take intravenous infusion for 2 weeks followed by oral tablets for 10 weeks.

This multi-center trial will be conducted Russia, Georgia, and Kazakhstan. The overall time to participate in this study is 25 to 26 weeks. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, and 12 weeks after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Initial Claudication Distance (ICD) at Week 12

    ICD was the distance walked at the onset of claudication pain or pain-free walking distance. ICD was assessed using treadmill testing. A fixed load treadmill test was carried out at 3.0 kilometer per hour (km/h) with a 10 percent (%) grade.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 12

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Percent Change From Baseline in ICD at Weeks 2 and 24

    ICD was the distance walked at the onset of claudication pain or pain-free walking distance. ICD was assessed using treadmill testing. A fixed load treadmill test was carried out at 3.0 km/h with a 10% grade.

    Measured: Baseline up to Weeks 2 and 24

  2. Absolute Change From Baseline in Absolute Claudication Distance (ACD) at Weeks 2, 12 and 24

    ACD was the distance at which claudication pain becomes so severe that the participant was forced to stop, also known as maximal walking distance. ACD was assessed using treadmill testing. A fixed load treadmill test was carried out at 3.0 km/h with a 10% grade. The investigator will record the distance from walking start to the point where the participant is unable to walk anymore.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 2, 12 and 24

  3. Percentage of Participants With Rest Pain at Weeks 12 and 24

    Rest pain was defined as a continuous burning pain, that begins, or is aggravated, after reclining or elevating the limb and is relieved by sitting or standing.

    Measured: Weeks 12 and 24

  4. Percentage of Participants With Revascularization Procedures at Week 24

    Revascularization was defined by a Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) score of 2 or 3 following use of the Penumbra System. TIMI scores were used to describe blood flow at the treated vessel with 0 designating no flow and 3 for normal flow.

    Measured: Week 24

  5. Change From Baseline in 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) at Weeks 12 and 24

    The SF-36 was a questionnaire that evaluated a participant's health related quality of life. SF-36 included 36 questions related to 8 health dimensions: physical functioning, role-physical (role limitations due to physical health problems), bodily pain, general health, vitality (energy/fatigue), social functioning, role-emotional (role limitations due to emotional problems), and mental health. Based on these 4 scales (physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health), the physical health score was generated which ranges between 0 and 100, with higher scores indicating a better quality of life. Based on these 4 scales (vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health), the mental health score was generated which ranges between 0 and 100, with higher scores indicating a better quality of life.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 12 and 24

Individual data sharing
Yes: Takeda makes patient-level, de-identified data sets and associated documents available for all interventional studies after applicable marketing approvals and commercial availability have been received (or program is completely terminated), an opportunity for the primary publication of the research and final report development has been allowed, and other criteria have been met as set forth in Takeda's Data Sharing Policy (see www.TakedaClinicalTrials.com for details). To obtain access, researchers must submit a legitimate academic research proposal for adjudication by an independent review panel, who will review the scientific merit of the research and the requestor's qualifications and conflict of interest that can result in potential bias. Once approved, qualified researchers who sign a data sharing agreement are provided access to these data in a secure research environment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Actovegin in people with Peripheral Arterial Diseases, run by Takeda at 20 sites in 3 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 5 inclusion and 11 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 28 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan. 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 phase mean?

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Oct 2020). 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?

Percent Change From Baseline in Initial Claudication Distance (ICD) at Week 12 (time frame: Baseline up to Week 12). 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 28 Oct 2020.
