Participants with critical limb disease
This registry will collect data from participants with critical limb disease from Duke University and approximately 40 sites in North America.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients presenting with critical limb ischemia Phase I: While the BEST-CLI Trial is actively enrolling, the BEST-Registry will only enroll patients who first screen fail from BEST-CLI. Phase II: After BEST-CLI officially finishes enrollment, screen failure for BEST-CLI will no longer be required for enrollment into the BEST-Registry 1200 patients, across approximately 40 sites participating in BEST-CLI clinical trial.
You may qualify if:
- Male or female
- age 18 years or older
- Infrainguinal peripheral artery disease (occlusive disease of the arteries below the inguinal ligament)
- Critical limb ischemia, defined as arterial insufficiency with gangrene, non-healing ischemic ulcer, or rest pain consistent with Rutherford categories 4-6
You may not qualify if:
- Willingness to comply with vCLI protocol, attend follow-up appointments, complete all study assessments, and provide written informed consent.
- Presence of a popliteal aneurysm (\> 2 cm) in the index limb
- Life expectancy of less than 2 years due to reasons other than peripheral artery disease
- Active vasculitis, Buerger's disease, or acute limb-threatening ischemia
- Current chemotherapy or radiation therapy
- Pregnancy or lactation
- Administration of an investigational drug for peripheral artery disease within 30 days of randomization
- Participation in a clinical trial (except observational studies) within the previous 30 days
- Prior enrollment or randomization into the BEST-CLI trial
