Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this Study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the IN.PACT Admiral® drug coated PTA balloon, utilized for the dilatation of the narrowed sections of the artery, as compared to other standard (non drug coated) PTA balloons. The IN.PACT Admiral, besides the mechanical dilatation effect typical of all PTA balloons, releases a drug (paclitaxel) from the balloon surface into the vessel walls. This drug absorption is intended to limit the chances and the entity of artery re-narrowing over time.
Detailed description
The efficacy of the IN.PACT Admiral balloon will be evaluated by assessing the primary patency rate of the treated arteries in the thighs of all patients included in the Study. Primary patency is a measure of the durability up to 1 year of the free lumen in the artery as restored during the procedure and is based on: * the need for re-dilatation of the previously treated vessel segment * an ultrasound examination The safety of the IN.PACT Admiral will be assessed by evaluating the incidence of deaths, amputations and re-dilatation of the pre-treated arteries in all patients included in the Study. The IN.PACT SFA Trial enrolled in 2 phases: IN.PACT SFA I and IN.PACT SFA II. The 150-patient IN.PACT SFA I phase is intended to support the second phase IN.PACT SFA II IDE trial with congruent design and protocol. Aggregate data from the two phases is intended to provide statistical power for the 12-month primary safety and effectiveness endpoints.

Pre-assignment details
The IN.PACT SFA Trial was designed as a two-phase randomized trial. IN.PACT SFA I, the first phase was conducted in Europe with 150 subjects enrolled. IN.PACT SFA II, the second phase, was conducted in the US with 181 subjects enrolled. The data from both phases of the IN.PACT SFA Trial have been pooled and comprise the pivotal trial data.
