Botulinum toxin for severe finger or toe blood flow problems
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Skin clinical trials.
This Phase 3 trial tests botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX) to improve severe poor blood flow in fingers, toes, hands, or feet from Buerger’s disease. It may help reduce pain and tissue (skin/ulcer) problems by improving circulation where blood flow is critical.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have Buerger’s disease confirmed by specific study medical criteria
- Have critical poor blood flow in a hand/foot (pain or skin/tissue problems for at least 15 days and low blood-flow measurements)
- Be able to come to all study visits and follow a daily study plan
- Be able to give free informed consent (and have Social Security coverage, if applicable)

This trial tests whether a single injection of botulinum toxin (a muscle-relaxing substance) into the leg can improve blood flow and help heal wounds in people with severe blocked leg arteries who cannot have standard procedures like angioplasty.
This study tests a skin patch with botulinum toxin to ease blood vessel spasms in the fingers of people with scleroderma, which can cause pain and sores. It may help improve blood flow and reduce finger discomfort.
This Phase 2 trial tests whether injecting incobotulinumtoxin-A near painful nerves can reduce nerve-type pain in the feet for people with diabetes. If you have lasting, fairly symmetrical pain in both feet, the injections may help calm the nerve pain signals.
This study looks at how botulinum toxin (botox) injections affect the muscles, tendons, and nerves in the lower leg of people who have had a stroke and have a tight, twisted foot (equinovarus). It aims to understand these changes to improve future treatments.
This trial tests whether injections of botulinum toxin A can loosen a tight calf muscle and improve long-lasting plantar fasciitis (heel/foot pain). It’s for people whose symptoms have lasted at least a year and who haven’t improved enough with physical therapy.
This study tests an investigational botulinum toxin injection (YY001) to reduce muscle stiffness in the arm after a stroke. It may help you move your arm more easily and improve daily tasks.
