Brief summary

The objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of the CSGS sensor to differentiate tissues involved in Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).

Detailed description

The objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of the CSGS sensor to differentiate tissues involved in Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Previously the CSGS was used in a clinical study in stroke patients (The Clot Out Study) to direct a catheter through blood vessels and to measure electrophysiological parameters in the blood vessels during procedures. In the current study however, a commercially available CE marked guidewire will be used to direct a catheter through blood vessels while the Clotild® Smart Guidewire System will only be used to perform electrophysiological measurements in the blood vessels during peripheral endovascular procedures. It is thus designed for use as an adjunct to conventional angiographic procedures.

Interventions

DEVICEClotild Smart Guidewire System (CSGS)

In the current study, a commercially available CE marked guidewire will be used to direct a catheter through blood vessels while the Clotild® Smart Guidewire (study device) will only be used to perform electrophysiological measurements (via its sensor) in the blood vessels during peripheral endovascular procedures. It is thus designed for use as an adjunct to conventional angiographic procedure. During the procedure, the physician acquired measurements at several locations within the lesion to target the various tissues of interest. The physician labeled the data according to tissue type, relying on the patient's symptoms and other available clinical information.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The Ability of Clotild® Smart Guidewire System (CSGS) to Acquire Electrophysiological Measurements in the Lesion and/or Subintimal.During the procedure, up to 95 minutesThe Primary Performance Endpoint is defined as the ability of Clotild® Smart Guidewire System to acquire electrophysiological measurements in the lesion and/or subintimal. This endpoint represents the procedural success rate being defined as the number of patients in whom the CSGS ( Clotild® Smart Guidewire System) obtained at least one non-anomalous impedance measurement in the lesion during the procedure, divided by the total number of patients in whom CSGS was used.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The Ability of Clotild® Smart Guidewire System to Differentiate Various Tissues Involved in Peripheral Artery DiseaseDuring the procedure, up to 95 minutesThe ability of Clotild® Smart Guidewire System to differentiate various tissues involved in Peripheral Artery Disease such as, but not limited to: * arterial wall * subintimal area * clot (fresh / subacute / organised) * plaque (soft / hard) * hyperplasia Due to limitations in data and label collection, the secondary endpoint could only be assessed by the development of a model performing binary classification distinguishing fresh-clot from every other tissue type. The non-anomalous impedance measurement are interpreted by a prediction model. This model provides a calibrated probability that a given non-anomalous measurement corresponds to a fresh clot. To assess alignement with the physician assessment, the model probabilities were compared with the physician assigned labels (fresh clot vs non fresh clot). For each physician's assigned group, the mean calibrated probabilities and its standard deviation are reported.

Recruitment details

A single center study. The investigator screened and consented patients based upon the eligibility criteria which could take place up to 4 weeks prior to the study procedure. 19 subjects were screened and consented (Intention to Treat Population - ITT). Prior to the study procedure, eligibility was to be reconfirmed. In 2 subjects, eligibility was not confirmed (screen failures). The Treated Population (TP): 17 subjects. First Patient In: 29nov2023 Last Patient Out: 15aug2024
