About this study

Official title: Study of Peripheral Arterial Calcification as a Possible Predictor of Outcome After Endovascular Therapy

Aim of the work :

  1. Using different calcification scoring systems to investigate the association between arterial calcification and clinical outcome following endovascular therapy
Read the detailed description

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a worldwide health problem and its prevalence is increasing among aging population. Symptomatic PAD Is a major cause of major amputation with reduction of the functional capacity and quality of life . Arterial calcification is calcium crystallization deposits in the extracellular matrix of the intima and media . Medial calcification is usually associated with chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus, while intimal calcification comes usually as a part of atherosclerotic process . The relationship between calcification and PAD is well established . Arterial calcification is associated with increased risk of procedural failure and major amputation . Many calcium scoring systems have been proposed, including peripheral arterial calcium scoring scale (PACSS which highlights the pathologic location of calcification along with the length of the segment affected. The peripheral academic research consortium (PARC) suggested another calcium scoring scale that classified calcification into 4 major grades . The DEFENETIVE Ca++ have proposed another calcium severity scoring . Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) is highly sensitive to presence and location of atherosclerotic calcium .

The impact of intimal and medial vascular calcification on the safety and effectiveness of endovascular devices to treat symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) remains poorly defined warranting continued research to elaborate relationship between calcification and endovascular outcome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary patency

    which means maintaining vessel patency without restenosis or need for re-intervention.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Major adverse limb events (MALE):

    by which we mean repeated endovascular therapy, surgical revision, or major amputation during follow up period.

    Measured: 1year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endovascular therapy in people with PAD, run by Assiut University.

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 1 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 30 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hazem Mohamed (01140210730, Hazemzaki57@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary patency (time frame: 1 year). 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 30 Sep 2019.
