Brief Summary
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the short- and long-term (up to 24 months) outcome of treatment by means of dilation with the Passeo-18 Lux drug releasing balloon and by Pulsar-18 stent implantation in symptomatic (Rutherford 2-4) femoro-popliteal arterial stenotic or occlusive lesions.

Study Arms (1)
Passeo-18-Lux & Pulsar-18
EXPERIMENTALThe interventional procedure sequence consists of the following steps: 1. pre-dilation of the lesion with a Passeo-18 balloon (mandatory) 2. dilation of the lesion with a Passeo-18 Lux drug releasing balloon (mandatory); a maximum of 2 Passeo-18 Lux balloons can be used per lesion (drug load cannot exceed 12µg) 3. stenting of the lesion with a Pulsar-18 stent (mandatory) 4. post-dilation of the lesion with a Passeo-18 balloon (not mandatory)

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- De novo lesions located in the femoropopliteal arteries suitable for endovascular treatment
- Patient presenting with a score from 2 to 4 according to the Rutherford classification
- Patient is willing to comply with specified follow-up evaluations at the predefined time intervals time
- Patients is \>18 years old
- Patient understands the nature of the procedure and provides written informed consent, prior to enrollment in the study
- Prior to enrollment, the target lesion was crossed with standard guidewire manipulation
- The target lesions are located within the native SFA: distal point 3 cm above knee joint and 1 cm below the origin of the profunda femoralis
- The target lesion has angiographic evidence of stenosis \>50% or occlusion
- Length of the target lesion is ≤ 19 cm by visual estimation and can be covered with one stent
- Target vessel diameter visually estimated is ≥4 mm and ≤6 mm
- There is angiographic evidence of at least one-vessel-runoff to the foot
You may not qualify if:
- Presence of another stent in the target vessel that was placed during a previous procedure
- Presence of an aortic thrombosis or significant common femoral ipsilateral stenosis
- Previous bypass surgery in the same limb
- Patients contraindicated for antiplatelet therapy, anticoagulants or thrombolytics
- Patients who exhibit persistent acute intraluminal thrombus at the target lesion site
- Perforation at the angioplasty site evidenced by extravasation of contrast medium
- Patients with known hypersensitivity to nickel-titanium
- Patients with uncorrected bleeding disorders
- Female patient with child bearing potential not taking adequate contraceptives or currently breastfeeding
- Life expectancy of less than 12 months
- Ipsilateral iliac artery treatment before target lesion treatment with a residual stenosis \> 30%
- Use of thrombectomy, atherectomy or laser devices during procedure
- Any planned surgical intervention/procedure 30 days after the study procedure
- Any patient considered to be hemodynamically unstable at onset of procedure
- Patient is currently participating in another investigational drug or device study that has not reached the primary endpoint
