Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the immediate and long-term (up to 12 month) safety and effectiveness of a Nitinol Self-Expanding Paclitaxel-Eluting stent for the treatment of patients with critical limb ischemia (i.e. rest pain or non-healing foot ulcers) due to the presence of arterial lesions in the below-the-knee arteries of maximally 50mm long.

Other Names:

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Primary patency [6 months]

      Primary patency rate at 6 months, defined by duplex ultrasound measurement of peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 at the target lesion(s) with no clinically-driven reintervention within the treated segment, verified by Core Lab

    2. Primary patency [12 months]

      Primary patency at 12 months, defined as absence of restenosis (≥50% stenosis) or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on angiography, verified by Core Lab

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Technical success [procedure (day 0)]

      Technical success, defined as the ability to cross and dilate the lesion to achieve residual angiographic stenosis no greater than 30% by visual assessment

    2. Procedural success [Procedure (day 0)]

      Procedural success, defined as the ability to achieve <30% final residual stenosis of the target lesion by visual estimation (angio) and the absence of any in-hospital Major Adverse Events (MAE, defined as clinically-driven target vessel revascularization, major unplanned amputation of the treated limb, and all-cause mortality)

    3. MAE (Major Adverse Event) [1, 6 and 12 months]

      MAE at 1, 6 and 12 months Major Adverse Events (MAE) include (but are not limited to) death myocardial infarction stroke emergent surgical revascularization of the target vessel repeat vascularization of the target vessel major amputation bleeding complication requiring transfusion

    4. SAE (Serious Adverse Event) [discharge, 1, 6 and 12 months]

      Other SAEs at discharge, 1, 6 and 12 months A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is defined as an Adverse Event which: results in death is life-threatening results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity requires in-patient hospitalization or unduly prolonged hospitalization. necessitates an intervention to prevent a permanent impairment of a body function or permanent damage to a body structure. is a congenital abnormality/birth defect, a fetal distress or fetal death results in malignancy

    5. Improvement of Rutherford classification [12 months]

      Improvement in Rutherford Clinical Category at 12 months, defined as an improvement in clinical status indicated by a decrease of one or more in Rutherford Clinical Category at 12 months compared to baseline, that is attributable to the treated limb (in cases of bilateral disease)

    6. Improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index [12 months]

      Improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index at 12 months, defined as an increase in the ankle-brachial index (ABI) at 1 year compared to baseline in subjects with compressible arteries and baseline ABI<0.9

    7. Primary Patency [1 and 12 months]

      Primary patency rate at 1 and 12 months, defined by duplex ultrasound measurement of peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 at the target lesion(s) with no clinically-driven reintervention within the treated segment

    8. Secondary patency [1, 6 and 12 months]

      Secondary patency rate at 1, 6 and 12 months, defined by duplex ultrasound peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.0 maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention

    9. Limb salvage rate [Procedure, 1, 6 and 12 months]

      Limb salvage rate, defined as 1 minus major amputation rate (major amputation is defined as at or above ankle, as opposed to minor amputation being at or below metatarsus preserving functionality of foot

    10. Target Lesion Revascularisation [Procedure (day 0), 1, 6 and 12 months]

      Target lesion revascularization (TLR), defined as a repeat intervention to maintain or re-establish patency within the region of the treated arterial vessel plus 5mm proximal and distal to the treated lesion edge.
