Brief Summary:
The Low dose ColchicinE in pAtients with peripheral Artery DiseasE to address residual vascular Risk (LEADER-PAD) trial will evaluate if anti-inflammatory therapy with colchicine will reduce vascular events in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease.
Detailed Description:
The LEADER-PAD trial is a randomized, double blind, multicenter trial with an active run-in period, comparing low dose colchicine 0.5 mg daily with placebo in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) to prevent vascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiovascular deaths, acute limb ischemia and vascular amputation). The sample size for the trial is 6,150 participants. The primary outcome for the trial is major adverse cardiovascular and limb events (MACE and MALE). This composite outcome consists of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke and severe limb ischemia that requires a vascular intervention (i.e., pharmacological reperfusion, endovascular or surgical revascularization) or a major vascular amputation (defined as ankle/transtibial amputation or higher).
