Peripheral Arterial Disease, Superficial Femoral Artery Stenosis
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the SELUTION SLR™ 018 DEB compared to plain (uncoated) balloon angioplasty in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and proximal popliteal artery (PPA).
Detailed description
Prospective, multi-center, single blinded, 2:1 randomized, controlled, superiority clinical trial. This study will enroll up to 300 randomized subjects, and up to 20 subjects in a parallel pharmacokinetic (pK) sub study, at up to 60 clinical sites in the United Stated (US), Europe (EU) and Asia. A minimum of 50% of randomized subjects will be enrolled in the US. No more than 45 subjects (15% of the total randomized cohort) can be enrolled in the randomized cohort at any single investigational site. Randomized Cohort: Up to 300 subjects who meet all eligibility criteria will be randomized 2:1 by permuted block method (stratified by site and adjunctive lesion preparation) to one of two treatment arms: * Intervention - treatment with SELUTION SLR™ 018 DEB * Control - treatment with commercially available PTA (uncoated balloon) Pharmacokinetic (pK) Sub-study: The pK substudy is a parallel registry consisting of up to 20 additional consecutive subjects meeting all eligibility criteria treated with the SELUTION DEB recruited at select study sites. The separate PK substudy protocol details the schedule of evaluations and blood draws to characterize the pK plasma profile of sirolimus.
Interventions
