Study Summary

Sodium nitrite has been demonstrated to promote new blood vessel growth, speed up wound healing and prevent tissue necrosis in animals. Since patients with PAD experience many of these problems, this study will seek to determine whether this drug, when given orally, could provide the same benefits to patients with PAD.

Primary Outcome

The primary objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of twice daily 40mg and 80mg sodium nitrite compared with placebo over a 10 week treatment period. Subjects will be asked to report any adverse events during the trial period, and blood pressure, methemoglobin levels and other blood chemistries will be assessed during the trial period for changes from baseline.

Interventions
