Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia clinical trials at UCSF

5 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Chronic limb-threatening ischemia is a severe blockage in the arteries of the lower extremities. UCSF is involved in clinical trials such as one which uses a patient's own blood cells to treat this condition. Another trial at UCSF is studying the use of deep vein arterialization for late-stage cases.

Showing trials for
  • BGC101 (EnEPC) Autologous Cell Therapy From Patient's Own Blood for Treatment of Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Evaluate the feasibility of an autologous cell preparation composed of a mixture of cells enriched for endothelial progenitor cells (EnEPCs) and multipotent adult hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) (BGC101), in the treatment of patients suffering from peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with critical limb ischemia (CLI) who have not responded to optimal pharmacological treatment or control of risk factors and/or had a revascularization failure, and do not have the option of further revascularization treatment.

  • PROMISE III: Percutaneous Deep Vein Arterialization for the Treatment of Late-Stage Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia

    open to eligible people ages 18-95

    A prospective, single-arm, multi-center study designed to gather additional information on the LimFlow System.

  • LIFE-BTK Randomized Controlled Trial

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The objective of this prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the everolimus eluting Esprit BTK System for the planned treatment of narrowed infrapopliteal lesions. Approximately 225 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio. The clinical investigation will be conducted at approximately 65 clinical sites in the US, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.

  • PROMISE II: Percutaneous Deep Vein Arterialization for the Treatment of Late-Stage Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The LimFlow System is intended for endovascular, minimally invasive procedures in patients who have a clinical diagnosis of chronic limb-threatening ischemia and who have been determined to have no surgical or endovascular treatment option (i.e., "no option").

  • DES BTK Vascular Stent System vs PTA in Subjects With Critical Limb Ischemia

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Single phased global, prospective, multicenter clinical trial designed to demonstrate a superior patency rate and acceptable safety in below the knee arteries with lesions treated with the DES BTK Vascular Stent System vs. percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA).
