AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* 1\. At the age of 20 and 80 (at the time of signing the informed consent), both male and female.
2\. According to DSA or CTA, patients diagnosed with lower limb arterial ischemic disease based on the medical history and clinical manifestations and with Rutherford grade 5 (with ulcer) must meet the substandardProspective.(if both limbs of the subject suffer from lower limb arterial ischemic disease, it is up to the investigator to select one limb for the study.)Resting ankle systolic pressure (dorsal foot artery or posterior tibial artery) ≤70mmHg or ABI≤0.5 or TcPO2 \< 30mmHg;In the first 3 months after randomized inclusion, DSA or CTA confirmed severe stenosis (≥70%) or occlusion of superficial femoral artery or popliteal artery or inferior knee artery.
3\. Patients with chronic lower limb arterial ischemia complicated with ulceration also met the following requirements: when signing the informed consent, the ischemic ulcer of the artery lasted at least 2 weeks;When signing the informed consent, the area of a single ulcer is no more than 10cm2;If there are multiple ulcers in the affected limb selected at the time of signing the informed consent, the total number of ulcers shall not exceed 3.Basic ulcer care (according to standard ulcer care procedure) should be maintained during the test to avoid aggravation of infection.The ulcer did not expose bone or joint capsule.If there is gangrene, only partial toe gangrene.
4\. Agreed to use the basic …
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
