Lead Sponsor:

Sanofi

Conditions:

Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

The primary objective is to evaluate the transgene expression (synthesis of FGF-1 mRNA) in injected tissue, at injection site, after Intra Muscular (IM) administration of increasing single doses of NV...

Detailed Description

Screening of 1 to 4 weeks before study drug administration; Single study drug administration 3 to 8 days before planned amputation; 6 months of follow up

  • or surgically sterilized (tubal ligation or hysterectomy)
  • or post menopausal for at least one year

Exclusion

  • Subjects with urgent need for amputation that cannot await until completion of the screening period (up to 4 weeks), added to the minimum required 48 hours between study test medication administration and tissue sample collection
  • Previous or current history of malignant disease (subjects with successful tumor resection more than 5 years -without any recurrence- prior to study start could be enrolled)
  • Abnormal Chest X-ray or mammography with suspicion of malignant disease
  • Positive stool hemoccult (except in case of hemorrhoids or any other identified cause with no malignancy origin)
  • Men with positive Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) (above 2.5 ng/ml in subjects \< 50 years and above 5 ng/ml in subjects above 50 years)
  • Females with Papanicolaou smear of Class IV or Class V characterization
  • Serious concomitant medical conditions not adequately controlled
  • Alcohol or drug abuse
  • Active proliferate retinopathy defined by the presence of new vessel formation and scarring
  • Participation in clinical trials of non-approved experimental agents within four weeks before study entry;
  • Positive serology for HIV1 or 2
  • Creatinine above 2.0 mg/dl (176 µmol/l), unless the subject is on hemodialysis / peritoneal dialysis and diagnosed with complete and irreversible renal failure or end-stage renal disease (ESRD)
  • Subjects who had a stroke or a neurological deficit presumably due to a stroke, within 3 months prior to study treatment (Amendment #1)
  • Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in serum \> 15 µg/l, unless liver ultrasound ruled out any malignant disease
  • Positive serology for hepatitis B or C, unless liver ultrasound ruled out any malignant disease.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
