NCT01738542

Brief Summary

A prospective study, proof-of concept, randomized, controlled, parallel groups, simple blind was performed in 30 male patients (50-60 years old) with Intermittent Claudication (Rutherford category 1-2) recently diagnosed and clinical manifestations not exceeding 6 months with hypertension and/or dyslipidemia as unique co-morbility disorders. After a period of stabilization of the claudication distance in the Stress test (12.5%, 3.2 km/h) during 2 weeks, were randomized 1:1 to the experimental arm (Bosentan 62.5 mg twice daily/four weeks and 125 mg twice daily/eight weeks) or control group.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in Absolute Claudication Distance (ACD) respect baseline values

    To determine the efficacy of bosentan on the improvement in the absolute claudication distance in the exercise in patients with Intermittent Claudication due Peripheral Arterial Disease. ACD and percentage of change, both for the treatment group and control group, at each visit after baseline : 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

    1 Year

  • Change in flow-mediated arterial dilation (FMAD) respect baseline values

    To determine the efficacy of bosentan on the improvement in the overall endothelin function in patients with Intermittent Claudication due Peripheral Arterial Disease FMAD for the treatment group and control group, at each visit after baseline : 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

    1 Year

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Changes in Analytical plasma values at each visit respect baseline values

    1 Year

  • Change in the ankle brachial index (ABI) respect baseline values

    1 Year

  • Change in subjective claudication distance (SCD) reported by the patient, as is defined in the Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ), respect baseline values

    1 Year

  • Occurrence of Adverse events during the study

    1 Year

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Change in the serum levels of Endothelin (ET) respect baseline values

    1 Year

  • Change in the serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) respect baseline values

    1 Year
