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.
- Your doctors have said that standard procedures like angioplasty or stenting are not possible for you.
- The wound is between 1 cm x 1 cm and 3 cm x 3 cm in size.
- You have not taken blood thinners (like aspirin or ibuprofen) for at least 7 days before starting the trial.

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.
This trial tests two ways of injecting botulinum toxin (a medication that relaxes muscles and reduces nerve pain) directly into painful nerve tissue that forms after combat-related amputation. The goal is to find which injection technique works better for chronic neuroma pain—the painful scar tissue that can develop at amputation sites.
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 trial tests a new way to open blocked arteries below the knee in people with severe leg wounds due to poor blood flow (chronic limb-threatening ischemia). The goal is to help wounds heal and save the leg from amputation.
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.
