Brief summary

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a Paclitaxel-coated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) Catheter in the treatment of patients with peripheral arterial disease.

Detailed description

The ILLUMENATE Pivotal study is a prospective, randomized, multi-center, single-blind study which will include up to 360 subjects in approximately forty-five (45) sites across the United States to evaluate the CVI Paclitaxel-coated PTA Catheter compared to the bare percutaneous transluminal angioplasty balloon catheter (bare balloon catheter) for the treatment of de-novo or post-PTA occluded/stenotic or reoccluded/restenotic (except for in-stent) SFA and/or popliteal arteries.

Pre-assignment details

Randomization. Patients who provided written informed consent but were excluded from the study due to not meeting all of the inclusion criteria or meeting one or more of the exclusion criteria were screen failures. Subjects who had unsuccessful pre-dilatation were not randomized and were to be treated per the institution's standard of care.

Outcome results

Primary

Freedom From Device and Procedure-related Death and Target Limb Major Amputation and Clinically-driven Target Lesion Revascularization

Freedom from device and procedure-related death through 30 days post-procedure and freedom from target limb major amputation and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization through 12 months post-procedure.

Time frame: 30 Days and 12 months

Population: Some Safety Status Missing at 12 Months Missing outcome status due to early study exit may differ from the total subjects exited by each visit interval as some subjects may have had a primary safety event within 12 months prior to study exit.
