NCT00725881

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of multiple, once-daily, intravenous doses of trans sodium crocetinate (TSC). The effectiveness of TSC in alleviating the symptoms of intermittent claudication (IC) will also be assessed.

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Aged 40 or older, male or female
  • mo. history of walking limitation or symptoms of intermittent claudication (IC) in at least 1 lower limb, severity of which has not changed in the past 3 mo. and diagnosed by principal investigator as clinically stable Fontaine Stage II peripheral artery disease (PAD)
  • Diagnosis of PAD secondary to atherosclerosis
  • If ankle-brachial index (ABI) is \> 1.3 or cannot be measured in either leg, vascular etiology documented by toe-brachial index (TBI) ≤ 0.7 in at least 1 leg
  • Claudication severity, meds. for the treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD), PAD and IC, and exercise habits should be clinically stable for 3 mo. prior to Screening (SCRN) and during study. Pt. is not likely to change smoking and/or exercise habits during study
  • On an exercise treadmill test (ETT), peak walking time (PWT) of at least 1 min., but no more than 12 min. at Baseline
  • Willing and able to discontinue Pletal or Trental for 21 days before SCRN and during study
  • Antihypertensive therapy, cholesterol-lowering therapy, chronic oral nitrates, and diabetic therapy have been stable for 30 days prior to SCRN
  • Willing and able to provide written, signed, informed consent after the nature of the study has been explained and prior to any research-related procedures
  • Willing and able to comply with all study-related procedures
  • Sexually active patients must use an acceptable method of contraception while participating in the study
  • Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at SCRN and have additional pregnancy tests during the study

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant or lactating
  • Current or history of critical limb ischemia (CLI)
  • Pts. in whom artery insufficiency in the lower extremity is the result of acute limb ischemia (ALI) or an immunological or inflammatory non-atherosclerotic disorder
  • Pts. in whom walking impairment due to pain is the result of other non-atherosclerotic co-morbid conditions
  • A surgical intervention to alleviate symptoms of IC or PAD-specific endovascular intervention or cardiovascular surgery within 3 mo. of SCRN
  • Walking limited by reasons other than claudication
  • Conditions other than IC of significant severity that could confound PWT on the ETT
  • Concurrent severe congestive heart failure (CHF)
  • Life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias, unstable angina, and/or myocardial infarction (MI) within 3 mo. before enrollment (ENRL)
  • Coronary artery bypass grafting or percutaneous coronary intervention within 4 mo. before ENRL
  • Renal and/or carotid revascularization procedure within 3 mo. of ENRL
  • Transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 3 mo. before ENRL
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) within 3 mo. before ENRL
  • Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
  • Thrombocytopenia
  • +17 more criteria
