Brief summary
This study is a prospective, interventional, multicenter 1:1 randomized trial. The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Magic Touch PTA sirolimus drug-coated balloon in comparison to the treatment with POBA (control device) in patients with advanced infrapopliteal artery disease.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to assess whether efficacy of the MagicTouch® Sirolimus Coated PTA Balloon Catheter (SRL-DCB) is superior and whether safety is non-inferior to Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty (POBA) regarding treatment of high-grade stenoses ≥ 75 % in the infrapopliteal arteries (located below the P3 segment of the popliteal artery to the tibiotalar joint) in patients presenting with chronic limb-threatening ische-mia (CLTI) (Rutherford 4-6).

Subject has been informed of the nature of the study, is willing to comply with all required follow-up evaluations within the defined follow-up visit windows and has signed an Ethics Committee (EC) approved consent form. 3. Female subjects of childbearing potential have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days before the procedure and are willing to use a reliable method of birth control for the duration of study participation. Female subjects will be exempted from this requirement in case they are sterile, infertile, or have been post-menopausal for at least 12 months (no menses). 4. Life expectancy \> 1 year in the investigator's opinion. 5. Subject presenting with documented chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) in the target limb defined as Rutherford category 4, 5 or 6. 6. In case of Rutherford category 5 or 6: Subjects with documented infection grade ≤ 2 according to the wound ischemia foot infection (WIfI) classification. 7. All ischemia grades according to the wound ischemia foot infection (WIfI) classifi-cation are allowed.documented infection grade ≤ 2 according to the wound ischemia foot infection (WIfI) classification. 7\. All ischemia grades according to the wound ischemia foot infection (WIfI) classification are allowed. 8\. Reference Vessel Diameter (RVD) ≥ 2 and ≤ 4.0 mm. 9. ≥ 75 % stenosis or occlusion of the target vessel by visual estimate of the treating physician; no minimal lesion length required. 10\. The target lesion may consist of multiple target vessel lesions, if they are ≤ 5 cm away from each other and if at least one of them is a stenosis ≥ 75 % and all lesions are located in only one of the infrapopliteal arteries or directly within the transition area. Non-target vessels (e.g. inflow lesions or contralateral extremity, other non-target vessels below the knee) and non-target lesions of the target ves-sel can be treated during the study index procedure but according to the patient's randomization result (interventional group: Sirolimus-coated balloon or POBA; control group: only POBA). 11\. Lesion length \< 30 cm, no limitation in number of used devices. 12. The lesion must be located in the infrapopliteal arteries and above the ankle joint. Lesions may not be located above the tibioperoneal trunk or below the tibiotalar joint (arteries of the foot), nor can the treatment (investigational device or standard PTA, including pre-dilatation) extend beyond these indicated regions for more than 1 cm. Note: A target lesion can extend into the P3 segment in case it involves a straight uninterrupted lesion extending from the target vessel. 13\. Presence of documented run-off to the foot (clearly visible at least one of the following run-off vessels: dorsalis pedis or pedal arch or plantar arteries by angiography). The target vessel should give direct or indirect run-off to the foot. 14\. Inflow free from flow-limiting lesion confirmed by angiography. Patients with flow-limiting inflow lesions (≥ 50 % stenosis) can be included if the lesion(s) have been treated successfully before enrollment, with a maximum residual stenosis of ≤ 30 % per visual assessment. If an inflow lesion must be treated within or above the P3 segment of the popliteal artery, there must be a minimum of 3 cm healthy tissue between this (treated) lesion and the infrapopliteal target lesion. Use of paclitaxel-coated devices is not permitted. 15\. Successful pre-dilatation of the (entire) target lesion. Success being documented by angiographic visual estimate of ≤ 50 % residual diameter stenosis of the target lesion and no flow limiting dissection (\< Grade D dissection). 16\. Participants can only be enrolled once with a single target lesion.
