Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical study is to learn if the FastWave Artero™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System is safe and works well to help people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who ...
Detailed Description
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) happens when plaque and calcium build up inside the arteries of the legs. This buildup narrows the arteries and limits blood flow, which can cause pain, limited mobilit...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Inclusion Criteria
- Subject is able and willing to comply with all assessments in the study.
- Subject or subject's legal representative has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to participate, and has signed the approved consent form.
- Subject is ≥ 18 years of age.
- Rutherford Clinical Category 2, 3 or 4
- Resting ABI of ≤0.90, or ≤0.75 after exercise, of the target leg.
- Lesion calcification is moderate or severe using the PARC3calcium classification definition, or by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) determined by the investigator.
- Moderate is defined as ≥ 180º to 270º and \< 50% of the total lesion length.
- Severe is defined as \>270º and \> than 50% of the total lesion length.
- Estimated life expectancy \>1 year, in the opinion of the investigator at the time of enrollment.
- Target lesion that is in a native de novo femoral-popliteal arteries. Non-target lesions can be in the iliac arteries (inflow).
- The subject is a suitable candidate for angiography and endovascular intervention, in the investigator's opinion or per the hospital guidelines.
- In the opinion of the investigator by visual estimate, the target lesion is ≥70% stenosis or is occluded.
- According to the visual estimate, the target lesion reference vessel diameter is between 3.5mm and 8.0mm.
- The total planned target lesion length must be ≤220 mm.
- Tandem lesions (i.e., two or more lesions in close proximity) may be considered a single lesion if the distance between them is ≤ 30 mm.
- Multiple target vessel beds and discrete (non-contiguous) lesions may be treated, provided the combined total length of all treated lesions does not exceed 220 mm.
- Subject has at least one patent tibial vessel on the target leg with runoff to the foot, defined as no stenosis \>50% distal to the target lesion.
- a. If the peroneal artery, at least one collateral must supply the foot.
- Retrograde access is permitted for lesion crossing; however, the FastWave Artero™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System must be deployed from antegrade (either ipsilateral or contralateral) access.
- Exclusion Criteria
- Planned use of atherectomy, scoring or cutting balloons, or any investigational device other than lithotripsy.
- Rutherford Clinical Categories 0, 1, 5, and 6.
- The investigator determined no or mild calcium in the target lesion.
- Subject has outflow disease in which no tibial vessel has \<50% stenosis. Staged or concomitant intervention to the tibial vessels is not allowed.
- The subject has significant inflow disease, defined as \>50% stenosis or occlusion in the inflow tract proximal to the target lesion, that has not been successfully treated prior to treatment of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) or popliteal lesion.
- a. Successful treatment is defined as residual stenosis ≤30% without a flow-limiting dissection or vessel perforation.
- The subject has significant outflow disease in which no tibial vessel has \<50% stenosis. Staged or concomitant intervention to the tibial vessel is not allowed.
- Inability to pass the guidewire across the target lesion.
- In-stent restenosis within the lesion(s) to be treated.
- Lesions within autologous or synthetic vessel grafts.
- Evidence of aneurysm or thrombus in the vessels to be treated.
- History of prior endovascular or surgical intervention on the index limb within 14 days prior to the index procedure, unless part of a pre-specified, staged treatment plan.
- Intervention on the contralateral limb is required within the next 14 days.
- History of thrombolytic therapy within two weeks of enrollment.
- Subject has a known hypercoagulable state, coagulopathy, or has a bleeding diathesis, thrombocytopenia with platelet counts less than 100,000/microliter, or International Normalized Ratio (INR) \>1.5.
- Subject in whom antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy is contraindicated.
- Myocardial infarction within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- History of stroke within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- History of unstable coronary artery disease or other uncontrollable comorbidity resulting in hospitalization within the last 60 days prior to enrollment.
- Subject has acute or chronic renal disease defined as serum creatinine of \>2.5 mg/dL or \>220 µmol/L, or on dialysis.
- Subject has an active infection requiring antibiotic therapy.
- Subject has known allergy to contrast agents, medications, or catheter materials used to perform endovascular intervention that cannot be adequately pre-treated.
- Subject is pregnant or nursing.
- Subject is participating in another research study involving an investigational agent (pharmaceutical, biologic, or medical device) that has not reached the primary endpoint.
- Subject has other medical, social, or psychological problems that, in the opinion of the investigator, preclude them from receiving this treatment, and the procedures and evaluations pre- and post-treatment.
