Botulinum toxin injection for severe leg artery disease
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 20 years or older.
- You have a wound on your leg or foot due to severe blockage in the leg arteries.

This study tests whether injecting botulinum toxin (Botox) into the hands or feet can relieve pain and help heal sores caused by Buerger's disease, a condition that narrows blood vessels and reduces blood flow to the fingers and toes.
This trial studies whether injecting botulinum (a medicine that relaxes overactive muscles) into the lower leg can reduce pain and pressure during exercise in people with a confirmed condition called chronic exertional compartment syndrome. It may help by lowering the muscle compartment pressure that builds up after activity.
This trial tests a new injectable medication (Eveotox) to see if it can safely reduce arm or hand stiffness in people who have had a stroke. The goal is to improve daily activities like dressing or cleaning your hand.
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.
This study looks at how well botulinum toxin (Botox) works for reducing muscle tightness in people who have weakness on one side of the body after a stroke. It will use medical records from before and after treatment to see if the injections improve function.
This study tests a new botulinum toxin injection (YY001) for adults whose arm muscles are tight or stiff after a stroke. It looks at whether repeated treatments help with daily activities like washing and dressing.
