Current pharmacological therapies play an auxiliary role and cannot prevent disease progression, and new treatment methods are needed. In 2011, a plasmid VEGF65-gene therapy drug was approved in Russia for the treatment of chronic lower limb ischemia (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: {"type":"clinical-trial","attrs":{"text":"NCT03068585","term_id":"NCT03068585"}}NCT03068585). The objective of this follow-up study was to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of gene therapy in patients with limb ischemia of atherosclerotic genesis %K therapeutic angiogenesis %K gene therapy %K VEGF165 %K intermittent claudication %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6116753/
