Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Subject must be ≥18 and ≤ 95 years of age
Subject has been assessed by the principal investigator, reviewed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC), and determined that no conventional distal bypass surgical or endovascular therapy for limb salvage is feasible due to either a) absence of a usable pedal artery target (endovascular or surgical approach), or b) the presence of a pedal artery target with absence of a viable single-segment vein in either lower extremity or either arm that could be used for autogenous vein conduit.

PROMISE Trial Summary

This trial is for a new minimally invasive treatment for patients with no other options for chronic limb-threatening ischemia.

Who is the study for?
The PROMISE II trial is for adults aged 18-95 with chronic limb-threatening ischemia who have no other surgical or endovascular options available. Candidates should be part of a wound care network, able to follow medication and visit schedules, not pregnant if of childbearing potential, and may include those on dialysis with stable conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This trial tests the LimFlow System, which is a minimally invasive procedure designed for patients with severe arterial blockages in their limbs that cannot be treated by traditional surgeries or therapies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, typical risks may include infection at the access site, bleeding, blood vessel damage from catheter insertion, allergic reactions to materials used in the LimFlow System or contrast agents during imaging.
