1 year
Study Arms (3)
Drug-eluting balloon
EXPERIMENTALSubjects are randomized to have a lesion treated with a paclitaxel-coated balloon Intervention: Cotavance Drug-Eluting Balloon
Plaque excision + drug-eluting balloon
EXPERIMENTALSubjects 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
Severely Ca++ Group
EXPERIMENTALSubjects 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
Interventions
Treatment with a paclitaxel-coated angioplasty balloon (without preceding plaque excision)
Plaque excision with a SilverHawk or TurboHawk plaque excision device followed by treatment with a paclitaxel-coated angioplasty balloon
