Inclusion criteria

* symptomatic venous outflow obstruction in one iliofemoral venous segment (i.e., one limb) per patient, demonstrated by: * CEAP C ≥ 3, or * VCSS pain score ≥ 2 Key

Exclusion criteria

* \< 18 years of age; * pregnant or planning to become pregnant in the next 12 months; * planned surgical or interventional procedures of the target limb (except thrombolysis and/or thrombectomy in preparation for the procedure or vena cava filter placement prior to stent implantation in patients at high risk for pulmonary embolism) within 30 days prior to or any time after the study procedure; * planned surgical or interventional procedures for other medical conditions (i.e., not associated with the target limb) within 30 days prior to or after the study procedure; * lesions with intended treatment lengths extending into the inferior vena cava or below the level of the lesser trochanter; * lesion with malignant obstruction; * previous stenting of the target vessel; * iliofemoral venous segment unsuitable for treatment with available sizes of study devices.

Change From Baseline in the Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) at 1 MonthBaseline and 1 monthVenous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) is a method of classifying venous disease severity based on 10 clinical descriptors (pain, varicose veins, venous edema, skin pigmentation, inflammation, induration, number of active ulcers, duration of active ulcer, size of active ulcer, and use of compression therapy), each scored on a scale from 0 (Absent) to 3 (Severe). The VCSS score is the sum of the scores for the individual descriptors, ranging from 0 to 30. Mean change = (1-month score - Baseline Score)

Outcome results

Primary

Number of Participants With 30-day Freedom From Major Adverse Events

Major adverse events were defined as procedural bleeding requiring transfusion, procedure- or device-related death, clinically driven target lesion reintervention, clinical migration, new symptomatic PE, or procedure-related perforation requiring open surgical repair or flow-limiting dissection of the target vessel.

Time frame: 30 days

Population: The study protocol specified the analysis be based on the intent-to-treat population, which includes all 243 enrolled patients. Among the 243 enrolled patients, data for the primary safety endpoint were available for 240 patients. Therefore, because the number of analyzable patients exceeded the minimum sample size required for sufficient statistical power (n=218), the primary analysis was based on the analyzable population in accordance with the study protocol.

The Rate of Participants With Primary Quantitative Patency at 12 Months

Primary quantitative patency was defined as a treated venous segment that retained (uninterrupted; intervention-free) an MLD (Minimum Lumen Diameter ) \> 50% of the immediate post-procedure stented MLD as demonstrated by venography as determined by the core laboratory.

Time frame: 12 months

Population: The study protocol specified the primary analysis be based on intent-to-treat population (n=243). Among the 243 enrolled patients, 189 patients had venographic primary patency outcome data available (i.e., post-procedure and 12-month venogram data). Therefore, the results presented are after the outcome was imputed multiple times by random sampling from the Bernoulli distribution based on outcomes for the analyzable patients (n=189) without covariate adjustment.

Change From Baseline in the Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) at 12 Months

Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) is a method of classifying venous disease severity based on 10 clinical descriptors (pain, varicose veins, venous edema, skin pigmentation, inflammation, induration, number of active ulcers, duration of active ulcer, size of active ulcer, and use of compression therapy), each scored on a scale from 0 (Absent) to 3 (Severe). The VCSS score is the sum of the scores for the individual descriptors, ranging from 0 to 30. Mean change = (12-month score - Baseline Score)

Time frame: Baseline and 12 months

Population: All participants with baseline and 12-months Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) available. Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) were available for 202 patients at 12 months.
