简要总结
Investigate, under outpatient conditions, both the effect of 4 weeks of daily treatment with Prostaglandin E1 and that of 4 weeks of interval treatment (two infusions per week) on the pain-free walking distance in patients with Intermittent Claudication.

结局指标
主要结局
Ratio of Pain-free Walking Distance After Period 3 in Comparison With the Findings at Baseline
时间窗: From Baseline to the end of 6-months Follow-up (Period 3)
The ratio of pain-free walking distance was calculated by the pain-free walking distance after Period 3 divided by the pain-free walking distance at Baseline with determination of pain-free walking distances on the treadmill (12 % grade and 3 km/h). If a subject was not familiar with the treadmill, at least two test determinations were performed to accustom him/her to the treadmill. For all treadmill determinations the subject has been prevented from observing the treadmill display of the walking distance achieved.
Ratio of Pain-free Walking Distance After Period 2 in Comparison With the Findings at Baseline
时间窗: From Baseline to the end of 4 weeks of Interval Treatment (Period 2)
The ratio of pain-free walking distance was calculated by the pain-free walking distance after Period 2 divided by the pain-free walking distance at Baseline with determination of pain-free walking distances on the treadmill (12 % grade and 3 km/h). If a subject was not familiar with the treadmill, at least two test determinations were performed to accustom him/her to the treadmill. For all treadmill determinations the subject has been prevented from observing the treadmill display of the walking distance achieved.
Ratio of Pain-free Walking Distance After Period 1 in Comparison With the Findings at Baseline
时间窗: From Baseline to the end of 4 weeks of Daily Treatment (Period 1)
The ratio of pain-free walking distance was calculated by the pain-free walking distance after Period 1 divided by the pain-free walking distance at Baseline with determination of pain-free walking distances on the treadmill (12 % grade and 3 km/h). If a subject was not familiar with the treadmill, at least two test determinations were performed to accustom him/her to the treadmill. For all treadmill determinations the subject has been prevented from observing the treadmill display of the walking distance achieved.
