Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter, Phase III study.The study aims to evaluate the Efficacy, Tolerability and Safety of Intramuscular Injections of PLX PAD for the Treatment of Subjects with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) with Minor Tissue Loss (Rutherford Category 5) who are Unsuitable for Revascularization.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: PLX-PAD

PLX-PAD will be administered via 30 IM injections (0.5 mL each). Each subject will be treated twice, with an interval of 8 weeks between treatments.

Biological: PLX-PAD
Local intramuscular (IM) injections of PLX-PAD in the index leg.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Placebo will be administered via 30 IM injections (0.5 mL each). Each subject will be treated twice, with an interval of 8 weeks between treatments.

Biological: Placebo
Local intramuscular (IM) injections of Placebo in the index leg.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Time to major amputation or death (AFS) [Up to 36 months from enrollment]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Time to first occurrence of any of the events (in index leg)-major amputation, revascularization due to worsening of CLI, All-cause mortality. [Up to 36 months from enrollment]

  2. Time to major amputation of the index leg. [Up to 36 months from enrollment]

  3. Change from baseline in ischemic pain as assessed by numerical rating scale (NRS) at 6 months. [6 months from enrollment]

    NRS measures the intensity or magnitude of sensations and subject feelings and the relative strength of attitudes and opinions about specific stimuli, on a scale of 0 to 10 with a score of zero denoting "no pain at all" and a score of 10 denoting "worst possible pain".

  4. Proportion of subjects with complete healing of all ischemic lesions i.e., ulcers and necroses in the index leg at 12 months. [12 months from enrollment]

  5. Time (days) from randomization to occurrence of death. [Up to 36 months from enrollment]

  16. Subject is currently enrolled in, or has not yet completed a period of at least 30 days since ending another investigational device or drug trial(s), unless in long-term follow-up phase.

  17. Use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, prostanoids, spinal cord stimulation, lumbar sympathectomy, wound dressing containing cells or growth factors, or topical platelet derived growth factor.
