Post-operative Treatment of Diabetic Peripheral Arterial Disease Guided by Platelet Reactivity Unit

May 3, 2016 updated by: Chi-Hsiao Yeh, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

To compare the effect of PRU(platelet (P2Y12) reaction units)-guided treatment on the change in

  1. time of initial leg pain and time of termination of exercise test by pain, evaluated on the graded stationary bicycle test,
  2. the lower limb perfusion by using MRI blood oxygenation-level dependent (BOLD) and dynamic contrast enhancement sequences and measures the extracellular volume fraction (ECV) as an indicator of fibrosis severity in calf muscles, from one to 52 weeks post-revascularization in patients with peripheral artery disease who have undergone endovascular revascularization -/+ bypass surgery for moderate to severe claudication or ischemic rest pain.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients will be randomly assigned to PRU-guided and non-PRU-guided group. In the non-PRU -target group, dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel 75 mg and aspirin 100 mg daily will be continued for 6 months after the procedure for patient followed with single antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel 75 mg daily throughout the follow-up period. In the PRU-target group, dual antiplatelet therapy will be the same protocol as in the non-PRU-target group for patients with PRU <234 seconds. However, for patients in the PRU-target group with PRU ≥234 seconds, rescue medicine will be added to keep PRU<234 seconds.
