E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The main objective is to assess the feasibility and safety of treatment by injecting botulinum toxin A into each hand or foot of patients with signs of critical ischemia secondary to Buerger's disease. The injection of botulinum toxin A into each hand or foot is performed after a single session, in day hospitalization. Tolerance is assessed before, during and 2 hours after the injection. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objective is to assess the impact of the injection of botulinum toxin A in each hand or foot at the end of a session, at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months on: - critical hemodynamic ischemia parameters (toe pressure or finger pressure, TCPO2 - the intensity of the pain (VAS) - healing of distal ulcers -the number of new digital ulcers - the number of minor or major amputations, - the frequency and severity of Raynaud's syndrome associated with Buerger's disease - life quality |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary endpoint is feasibility as well as tolerance. The feasibility criterion corresponds to the number of patients who actually received the injections planned within the defined timeframes, compared to the number of patients who should have had the injection according to the criteria of the protocol. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
6 months after injection Botulinum toxin |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
1 / Critical ischemia parameters: Doppler laser tissue perfusion assessment, toe pressure or finger pressure in mmHg before (D0) and after injection (M1, M3, M6) Evaluation of tissue perfusion by thermal camera before (D0) and after injection (M1, M3, M6) Transcutaneous measurement of the partial pressure of oxygen TCPO2 before (J0) and after injection (M1, M3, M6) 2 / Pain assessed by the EVA at M1, M3, M6 3 / Evaluation of the healing of distal ulcers (D0, M1, M3, M6) - color scale (% of bud, fibrin, necrosis, epidemization) at D0, M1, M3, M6 - dimension, surface of ulcers at D0, M1, M3, M6 - new distal ulcerations on D0, M1, M3, M6 - number of ulcers whose surface area has reduced by more than 40% at M1, M3, M6 - number of total healing (100% epidermis) at M1, M3, M6 - number of minor or major amputations at M1, M3, M6 4 / Appearance of new digital ulcers 5 / Need for minor and major amputation 6 / Frequency and severity of Raynaud's syndrome associated with Buerger's disease according to the Raynaud condition score (J0, M1, M3, M6) A seizure is defined as a paroxysmal episode of pallor or cold cyanosis (with or without pain, tingling or numbness). Patients will note the number and duration of RA attacks on a daily basis as well as the severity of the RA, each attack is self-assessed daily on a 10-point scale and the average calculated over 14 days ± 4 days, from day D-14 to day D0 (+/- 4 days) and from day D14 to day D28 (+/- 4 days) 7 / Quality of life questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L, Cochin, Claus) on D0 and M6 |
