Study Overview
Brief Summary
The study is aimed at evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of systemic pharmacotherapy as a part of combination treatment, and its influence on the overall treatment outcomes in patients with skin changes (CEAP class C4a and C4b).
Detailed Description
Primary goal:
To study the efficacy of systemic pharmacotherapy as part of combination therapy and its impact on the:
- thickness of the skin-fat fold (ultrasound examination);
- change in the venous clinical severity score (VCSS);
- change in the CEAP clinical class of CVD;
- evolution of CVD symptoms characteristic for CEAP class C4 (sensations of skin tightening, burning, itching, pain, and exudation) using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).
Secondary goals:
- To study the efficacy of systemic pharmacotherapy as part of combination therapy and its impact on the:

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The Mean Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Thickness Changes (mm) Between the Visit 3 and Baseline by Ultrasound Examination.
Time Frame: 6 months
Ultrasound examination was used to get: 1. Thickness of the thickness of the skin-fat fold at the affected skin area; 2. Presence of reflux or occlusion (with an indication of the terrotiry). * Measurements should be taken in the afternoon at about the same time, at visits V0 and V3. * The data are recorded only for the limb with the most severe changes. * Measurements are taken at the site of skin changes. Unit of Measure - mm
Secondary Outcomes

- The Mean Changes VCSS for Pain (Four-point Scale (From 0 to 3)) Between the Visit 3 and Baseline by Ultrasound Examination. Change in the VCSS Scale(6 months)
- The Mean Changes VCSS for Inflammation (Four-point Scale (From 0 to 3)) Between the Visit 3 and Baseline by Ultrasound Examination. Change in the VCSS Scale(6 months)
- The Mean Changes of Global Index CIVIQ-14 Score (GIS) Between the Visit 3 and Baseline Evaluated(6 months)
