Summary

This trial will test if a cell therapy product made from a patient's own cells is safe and effective in treating peripheral arterial disease.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for postmenopausal or sterile individuals, or those using birth control, with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) causing walking limitations due to claudication. They must have specific artery blockages and a history of PAD symptoms in their legs. Excluded are those with severe diseases like heart failure, recent strokes, uncontrolled diabetes, obesity (BMI≥40), certain eye conditions, recent surgeries on the heart or veins in the leg, and anyone who's been in gene transfer trials.
What is being tested?
The study tests MultiGeneAngio cell therapy made from a patient's own cells at different doses to see if it's safe and effective for treating PAD. Patients will receive this treatment to check how well it improves blood flow and reduces symptoms related to poor circulation in their legs.
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial primarily aims to assess safety, potential side effects may include typical risks associated with cell therapies such as immune reactions, infection risk at injection sites, possible pain or swelling where treated. Specific side effects will be monitored closely given that this is a novel treatment.
