Sirolimus Use in Angioplasty for Vascular Access Extension
- Registration Number
- NCT01595841
- Lead Sponsor
- Lawson Health Research Institute
- Brief Summary
Dialysis patients presenting for angioplasty intervention for graft failure will be randomized to receive either Sirolimus or not receive Sirolimus (standard of care) to assess the time from primary failure or angioplasty intervention to second or next angioplasty intervention or graft failure.
- Detailed Description
This is a randomized control study to determine the feasibility of using sirolimus peri-angioplasty to compare the time from primary failure or angioplasty intervention to second or next angioplasty intervention or graft failure to a control group who would not have received Sirolimus
