Use of Allogenic Platelet Lysate in Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)

Phase 1

• Conditions: Peripheral Arterial Disease
• Interventions: Biological: Placebo; Biological: Platelet lysate

• Registration Number: NCT03297814
• Lead Sponsor: Sophia Al-Adwan

Brief Summary

Allogenic platelet lysate will be injected in the gastrocnemius of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD)

Detailed Description

Allogenic platelet rich plasma (PRP) will be collected from blood group AB donors. This plasma will be tested for the presence of any chronic infectious blood borne disease.

Platelet lysate will be then prepared from the tested PRP to be intramuscularly injected in patients with PAD

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
placebo	Placebo	A total of 5 ml of Normal Saline will be intramuscularly injected in 4 doses with 2 week interval
Platelet lysate	Platelet lysate	A total of 5 ml platelet lysate will be intramuscularly injected in 4 doses with 2 week interval

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]	6 months	Frequency and nature of adverse events occurring during a 6-month period following platelet lysate injection(s). This will be assessed by physical examination combined with a report with chemistry blood tests.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of the preliminary efficacy of the platelet lysate injection on patients' ABI	12 months	Positive changes in patients' Ankle brachial index (ABI)
Evaluation of the preliminary efficacy of the platelet lysate injection on patients' Toe pressure	12 months	Positive changes in patients' Toe pressure (mm Hg)
Evaluation of the preliminary efficacy of the platelet lysate injection on patients' TcPO2	12 months	Positive changes in patients' Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2)
