NCT00640770

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to compare the performance of the CYPHER SELECTTM + Sirolimus-eluting Balloon-expandable Coronary and Infrapopliteal Stent over balloon angioplasty in de novo and restenotic native below the knee tibioperoneal, anterior and/or posterior tibial and/or peroneal arterial lesions in a prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical study.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subject must be \>= 18 and \<= 85 years old;
  • Female of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 10 days prior to index procedure and utilize reliable birth control until completion of the 12-month angiographic evaluation;
  • Clinical diagnosis of symptomatic critical limb ischemia as defined by Rutherford 3, 4, or 5;
  • Single treatment of de novo or restenotic (after PTA only) lesion(s) in the tibioperoneal trunk, anterior and/or posterior tibial and/or peroneal artery;
  • A maximum of 2 vessels in 1 limb may be treated in the study, each vessel for only 1 target lesion, resulting in at single risk target lesion(s); In case 1 target lesion is located in the Tibioperoneal trunk, the 2nd target lesion (if applicable) can only be located in the anterior tibial artery; Additional non-target lesion(s) in remaining non-target vessel(s) can be treated at the physician's discretion by means of balloon dilation (± bail-out stenting);
  • The sum of the total length of both target lesions can be maximum 120 mm;
  • In total a maximum of 4 stents may be implanted to fully cover the maximum of 2 target lesions per subject;
  • Target vessel is \>= 2.5 and \<= 3.5 mm in diameter (visual estimate);
  • Target lesion stenosis is \>70% diameter stenosis (visual estimate);
  • Guidewire must be across the first (if applicable) target lesion and located intraluminally within the distal vessel before study randomization;
  • Willing to comply with the specified follow-up evaluation;
  • Written informed consent prior to any study procedures.

You may not qualify if:

  • Significant (\>50%) stenoses distal to the target lesion that might require revascularization, or impede runoff;
  • Angiographic evidence of thrombus within target vessel;
  • Thrombolysis within 72 hours prior to the index procedure;
  • Lesions not suitable for stenting;
  • Lesions (defined as stenosis \> 75%) in the common or external iliac, common or superficial femoral and popliteal artery. However, intervention in TASC A and B lesions (max. 15cm) to restore adequate blood flow, in the same index procedure is allowed. This intervention must be prior to the treatment of the study lesion(s) and successful;
  • Lesions located at the bifurcation requiring treatment of both branches (1 in main branch and 1 in side branch);
  • Required stent placement across or within 1 cm of the knee joint; in an artery subject to external compression, or in an artery directly subject to movement of the ankle or knee joint;
  • Prior stent(s) within the target vessel(s);
  • Aneurysm in the SFA or popliteal artery;
  • Requiring popliteal arterial access;
  • Concomitant hepatic insufficiency, thrombophlebitis, deep venous thrombus, coagulation disorder or receiving immunosuppressant therapy;
  • Recent MI or stroke \< 30 days prior to the index procedure;
  • Coronary intervention \< 30 days prior to the index procedure;
  • Life expectancy less than 12 months;
  • Known or suspected active infection at the time of the index procedure, excluding an infection of a lower extremity wound of the target limb;
  • +5 more criteria
