Eligibility criteria

Main Inclusion Criteria:

  • Stable use of Cilostazol of any strength and any dosing frequency for at least 3 months prior to screening, for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease.
  • Initial claudication distance ≥ 30 meters at the constant workload treadmill test.

Main Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of limb-threatening chronic limb ischemia, manifested by ischemic rest pain, ulceration or gangrene.
  • History of lower-extremity surgical or endovascular arterial reconstructions or sympathectomy within 3 months prior to screening.
  • Presence of illness(es) (such as angina pectoris, respiratory disease, orthopaedic disease, or neurological disorders, except the study disease) limiting the exercise capacity.
  • Presence of uncontrolled hypertension (based on physician's judgment) or other unstable cardiovascular disease such as congestive heart failure of any severity and myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening.
  • History of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or major cardiovascular surgical procedures within 6 months prior to screening.
  • History of Buerger's disease or deep vein thrombosis within 3 months prior to screening.
  • Presence of haemostatic disorders or active pathologic bleeding, such as bleeding peptic ulcer and intracranial bleeding.
  • Presence or history of ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation or multifocal ventricular tachycardia with or without adequate treatment, prolongation associated with cardiac disorders, or severe tachyarrhythmia within 6 months prior to screening, which is considered not suitable for this study by Investigator.
  • History of type 1 diabetes mellitus or poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus.
  • Use of anticoagulant agent(s) within 6 months prior to screening.
  • Use of two or more than two anti- agents within 3 months prior to screening.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Geometric mean percent change in initial claudication distance (ICD)

    The standardized workload treadmill test will be conducted for evaluation of walking performance. ICD is defined as the distance walked to the point of the onset of claudication symptoms.

    Time frame: At baseline (day 0) and week 24

Secondary outcomes

  1. Geometric mean percent change in initial claudication distance (ICD)

    The standardized workload treadmill test will be conducted for evaluation of walking performance. ICD is defined as the distance walked to the point of the onset of claudication symptoms.

    Time frame: At baseline (day 0) and week 12

  2. Geometric mean percent change in absolute claudication distance (ACD)

    The standardized workload treadmill test will be conducted for evaluation of walking performance. ACD is defined as the maximal distance walked to the point where severe claudication pain forced cessation of exercise.

    Time frame: At baseline (day 0) and week 12

  3. Geometric mean percent change in absolute claudication distance (ACD)

    The standardized workload treadmill test will be conducted for evaluation of walking performance. ACD is defined as the maximal distance walked to the point where severe claudication pain forced cessation of exercise.

    Time frame: At baseline (day 0) and week 24

  4. Subject assessment of treatment response

    Participants will subjectively evaluate the treatment response of study drug on claudication symptoms which will be categorized into: * Much Better * Better * Unchanged * Worse * Much Worse Participants rating their improvement on claudication symptoms as "Much Better" or "Better" are classified as responders.

    Time frame: At week 24

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 20, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
