Stent Graft System

LimFlow Stent Graft System for Critical Limb Ischemia

N/A
Recruiting
Led By Daniel Clair, MD
Research Sponsored by LimFlow, Inc.
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Clinical diagnosis of chronic limb-threatening ischemia, defined as any of the following clinical assessments: previous angiogram or hemodynamic evidence of severely diminished arterial inflow of the index limb (e.g., ABI ≤ 0.39, TP / TcPO2 < 30 mm Hg) and Rutherford Classification 5, ischemic ulceration or Rutherford Classification 6, ischemic gangrene
Subject has been assessed by the Principal Investigator 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
Must not have
Active infection (e.g., fever, significantly elevated WBC count >20.0 x 109/L, and/or positive blood culture) at the time of the index procedure that may preclude insertion of a prosthesis or require major amputation (e.g., osteomyelitis proximal to metatarsals)
Active immunodeficiency disorder or currently receiving immunosuppressant therapy for an immunodeficiency disorder

Summary

This trial will study how a medical device helps patients with leg artery blockages.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-95 with severe chronic limb-threatening ischemia, classified as Rutherford 5 or 6, where traditional treatments are not feasible. Candidates must have stable wounds and blood sugar levels (HbA1C <10%), be non-pregnant if of childbearing potential, and able to consent. Exclusions include recent heart attack or stroke, certain kidney diseases, inability to follow the study protocol, severe heart failure, other medical conditions that could interfere with participation, life expectancy under a year, allergies to specific medications or materials used in the procedure.
What is being tested?
The LimFlow Stent Graft System is being tested in this single-arm study across multiple centers. The device aims to create new pathways for blood flow in patients whose limbs are at risk due to poor circulation from peripheral arterial disease.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include local complications at the site of stent graft placement such as infection or bleeding; allergic reactions to materials like stainless steel or nitinol; contrast agent reactions; and general risks associated with percutaneous procedures like bruising or clotting.

Eligibility Criteria
