Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Percentage of Calcium Removal Out of Lumen Gain as Assessed by IVUS

    The post-treatment percentage of calcium removal out of lumen gain at the maximum calcium ablation site. A positive value equates to reduction in calcium out of the lumen gain.

    Post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Minimum Lumen Area Percent Stenosis as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) minimum lumen area percent stenosis. A positive value equates to a decrease in lumen area percent stenosis.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Plaque Area as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) plaque area. A positive value equates to a decrease in plaque area.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Dense Calcium Area as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) dense calcium area. A positive value equates to a decrease in dense calcium area.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Necrotic Core Area as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) necrotic core area. A positive value equates to a decrease necrotic core area.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Fibrous Plaque Area as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) fibrous plaque area. A positive value equates to a decrease in fibrous plaque area.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

  • Change in Fibrofatty Plaque Area as Assessed by IVUS

    The pre- (Pre-Tx) and post-treatment (Post-Tx) fibrofatty plaque area. A positive value equates to a decrease in fibrofatty plaque area.

    Pre-intervention, and post-balloon angioplasty

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Fractional Flow Reserve

    Post-orbital atherectomy (OA arm only) and post-balloon angioplasty (both arms)

Study Arms (2)

Orbital Atherectomy System

EXPERIMENTAL

Orbital Atherectomy (OA) is performed prior to adjunctive Balloon Angioplasty (BA)

Device: Orbital Atherectomy SystemDevice: Balloon Angioplasty

Balloon Angioplasty

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Balloon Angioplasty (BA) alone

Device: Balloon Angioplasty

Interventions

Orbital atherectomy (OA) is performed prior to adjunctive balloon angioplasty (BA)

Orbital Atherectomy System

Type of balloon selected is driven by preference of the operator.

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

You may qualify if:

  • Subject's age ≥ 18 years.

  • Subject is willing and able to attend follow-up and wound care visits.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject is pregnant or planning to become pregnant within the study period.
  • Subject is currently participating in an investigational drug or other device study that can clinically interfere with the endpoints of this trial.
  • Subject has a known sensitivity to contrast media and the sensitivity cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
  • Uncontrolled allergy to nitinol, stainless steel, or other stent materials.
  • Subject has known allergy to atherectomy lubricant components such as soybean oil, egg yolk phospholipids, glycerin or sodium hydroxide.
  • Subject has a history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or will refuse blood transfusions.
  • Subject has been diagnosed with chronic renal failure or has a creatinine level \> 2.5, unless on dialysis, prior to the index treatment.
  • Subject has evidence of intracranial or gastrointestinal bleeding within 90 days.
  • Subject has a history of trauma, fracture, major surgery (includes major amputation), or biopsy of a parenchymal organ within past 14 days, or patient has not healed from a previous medical intervention occurring more than 14 days.
  • Subject has a history of stroke or myocardial infarction (MI) within 90 days prior to enrollment in the study.
  • Subject has a planned major surgery (includes major amputation) scheduled within 60 days after treatment of the index limb.
  • Subject has a planned interventional treatment to address stenosis of the contralateral limb scheduled within 60 days after the index treatment.
  • Subject has a planned interventional treatment to address inflow stenosis of the ipsilateral limb scheduled within 60 days after the index treatment.
  • Inflow or bilateral PAD requiring treatment prior to enrollment was not successfully treated, defined as \> 50% residual stenosis and/or occurrence of procedural angiographic complications, excluding dissection types A and B.
  • Subject has previously had their other limb treated as part of the study.
  • +11 more criteria
