Propionyl-L-carnitine improves exercise performance and functional status in patients with claudication
PURPOSE: We tested the hypothesis that propionyl-L-carnitine would improve peak walking time in patients with claudication. Secondary aims of the study were to evaluate the effects of propionyl-L-carnitine on claudication onset time, functional status, and safety. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: In this doubl...

description | PURPOSE: We tested the hypothesis that propionyl-L-carnitine would improve peak walking time in patients with claudication. Secondary aims of the study were to evaluate the effects of propionyl-L-carnitine on claudication onset time, functional status, and safety.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: In this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 155 patients with disabling claudication from the United States (n = 72) or Russia (n = 83) received either placebo or propionyl-L-carnitine (2g/day orally) for 6 months. Subjects were evaluated at baseline and 3 and 6 months after randomization with a graded treadmill protocol at a constant speed of 2 miles per hour, beginning at 0% grade, with increments in the grade of 2% every 2 minutes until maximal symptoms of claudication forced cessation of exercise. Questionnaires were used to determine changes in functional status.
RESULTS: At baseline, peak walking time was 331 ± 171 seconds in the placebo group and 331 ± 187 seconds in the propionyl-L-carnitine group. After 6 months of treatment, subjects randomly assigned to propionyl-L-carnitine increased their peak walking time by 162 ± 222 seconds (a 54% increase) as compared with an improvement of 75 ± 191 seconds (a 25% increase) for those on placebo (

P <0.001). Similar improvements were observed for claudication onset time. Propionyl-L-carnitine treatment significantly improved walking distance and walking speed (by the Walking Impairment Questionnaire), and enhanced physical role functioning, reduced bodily pain, and resulted in a better health transition score (by the Medical Outcome Study SF-36 Questionnaire). The incidence of adverse events and study discontinuations were similar in the two treatment groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Propionyl-L-carnitine safely improved treadmill exercise performance and enhanced functional status in patients with claudication.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0002-9343</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1555-7162</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/S0002-9343(01)00704-5</identifier><identifier>PMID: 11382369</identifier><identifier>CODEN: AJMEAZ</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>New York, NY: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>Adult ; Aged ; Aged, 80 and over ; Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal - pharmacology ; Biological and medical sciences ; Cardiovascular system ; Carnitine - analogs & derivatives ; Carnitine - pharmacology ; Clinical trials ; Double-Blind Method ; Exercise ; Exercise Tolerance - drug effects ; Female ; Humans ; Hypotheses ; Intermittent Claudication - physiopathology ; Male ; Medical research ; Medical sciences ; Middle Aged ; Miscellaneous ; Pharmacology.
