- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy (by monitoring the wound size reduction of PAOD-related clinically relevant ulcers) and safety (by monitoring adverse events [AEs]) of one dose of allo-APZ2-PAOD administered intramuscularly into an affected lower leg of patients with PAOD. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): 1. Primary efficacy endpoint: Percent change from baseline to week 12 in total wound size of the target leg. The total wound size of the target leg is calculated as sum of the wound sizes of all relevant ulcers of the target leg.<br><br>2. Primary safety endpoint: Adverse events.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Week 12, or last available post-baseline measurement of weeks 6 or 8 if the Week 12 measurement is missing.<br>2. During all patient visits except screening.
