Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Target Lesion Percent Stenosis

    1 year

Study Arms (3)

Drug-eluting balloon

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects are randomized to have a lesion treated with a paclitaxel-coated balloon Intervention: Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Device: Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Plaque excision + drug-eluting balloon

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects are randomized to have a lesion treated with plaque excision (PE) followed by treatment with a paclitaxel-coated balloon Intervention: SilverHawk/TurboHawk + Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Device: TurboHawk/SilverHawk + Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Severely Ca++ Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects with a severely calcified lesion will be assigned to a non-randomized arm and treated with plaque excision followed by a drug-eluting balloon Intervention: SilverHawk/TurboHawk + Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Device: TurboHawk/SilverHawk + Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon

Interventions

Treatment with a paclitaxel-coated angioplasty balloon (without preceding plaque excision)

Drug-eluting balloon

Plaque excision with a SilverHawk or TurboHawk plaque excision device followed by treatment with a paclitaxel-coated angioplasty balloon
