Acronym: ENLIGHTEN PAD
Brief Summary: The ENLIGHTEN PAD Trial will collect preliminary data to test whether daily 660 nm light treatment of the lower extremities immediately before home-based walking exercise sessions improves six-minute walk distance at 4-month follow-up compared to sham light in people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease PAD
Detailed Description: The ENLIGHTEN PAD Trial will collect preliminary data to test whether daily 660 nm light treatment of the lower extremities immediately before home-based walking exercise sessions improves six-minute walk distance at 4-month follow-up compared to sham light in people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease PAD Primary Aim 1 In Primary Aim 2 the investigators will measure the acute effect of the first treatment of 660 nm light on six-minute walk distance and on walking intensity measured with the ActiGraph accelerometer during the six-minute walk In secondary and exploratory aims the investigators will delineate biologic pathways by which 660 nm light enhances the benefits of home-based walking exercise by measuring the effects of 660 nm light on exercise intensity during the exercise intervention and by measuring the effects of 660 nm light on plasma nitrosothiols leg perfusion and gastrocnemius muscle health and mitochondrial activity Exercise intensity will be measured by the well validated ActiGraph accelerometer

The ENLIGHTEN PAD Trial is a Phase II multi-centered randomized clinical trial Thirty-two participants with PAD will be randomized at one of two centers Northwestern University PI MM McDermott MD and the University of Alabama PI Nicole Lohr MD PhD to either 660 nm light home-based exercise or sham light home-based exercise for four months Both groups of participants will receive the same home-based high intensity walking exercise intervention
