Trial summary

Lower limb peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common, important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis. Stenosis or occlusions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) may result in intermittent claudication or even critical ischemia, which may be treated by balloon angioplasty with or without stenting .

About this study

Lower limb peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common, important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis. Stenosis or occlusions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) may result in intermittent claudication or even critical ischemia, which may be treated by balloon angioplasty with or without stenting .

Atherosclerotic disease in the femoropopliteal (FP) artery consists of perfusion to the legs and feet. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) has been routinely used to manage FP artery disease and is recommended as an alternative to surgical bypass. Recently, newer endovascular approaches such as covered stent, drug-eluting balloon (DEB), drug-eluting stent (DES), or catheter based atherectomy have been introduced as treatment options for FP artery disease. Nevertheless, FP artery-in stent restenosis (ISR) is still a major challenge with endovascular therapy .

Although the use of peripheral arterial stents brought about a dramatic improvement in patients' clinical and procedural outcomes, the long-term outcome of stent implantation remains significantly constrained by the risk of developing in-stent restenosis (ISR) over time.

Advancements in endovascular stent technology have addressed limitations associated with conventional percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty in patients with chronic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the lower limbs, such as elastic recoil,residual stenosis and flow-limiting dissection . However, a considerable proportion of patients with PAD treated with stenting will require secondary interventions due to in-stent restenosis (ISR), which is particularly common in long and complex lesions ISR refers to loss of luminal volume from an ingrowth of cells, extracellular matrix, and thrombus within the cylinder of the stented artery and 5-mm margins proximal and distal to the stent. ISR has been reported to occur in 18-40% of patients undergoing stenting in the femoropopliteal segment within the first year of treatment .

The treatment of ISR is one of the major challenges in endovascular therapy for PAD. The treatment options for ISR include standard balloon angioplasty with or without repeat stenting (using bare-metal stents, stent grafts or drug-eluting stents), drug-coated or cutting balloon angioplasty, cryoplasty and directional or laser atherectomy .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PTA in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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 11 Oct 2019. 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact 16 (+201024699495, zekomessi16@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change number of superficial femoral artery in stent restenosis (time frame: 3 years). 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 11 Oct 2019.
