Brief Summary
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Boston Scientific Corporation (BSC) ELUVIA Drug-Eluting Vascular Stent System (ELUVIA Stent) for treating Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) and/or Proximal Popliteal Artery (PPA) lesions up to 140 mm in length. Long Lesion Substudy: to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Boston Scientific Corporation (BSC) ELUVIA Drug-Eluting Vascular Stent System (ELUVIA Stent) for treating Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) and/or Proximal Popliteal Artery (PPA) lesions \>140 mm and ≤ 190 mm in length.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects age 18 and older.
- Subject (or Legal Guardian if applicable) is willing and able to provide consent before any study-specific test or procedure is performed, signs the consent form, and agrees to attend all required follow-up visits. NOTE: For subjects less than 20 years of age enrolled at a Japanese center, the subject's legal representative, as well as the subject, must provide written informed consent.
- Chronic, symptomatic lower limb ischemia defined as Rutherford categories 2, 3 or 4.
- Stenotic, restenotic or occlusive lesion(s) located in the native SFA and/or PPA:
- Degree of stenosis ≥ 70% by visual angiographic assessment
- Vessel diameter ≥ 4 and ≤ 6 mm
- Total lesion length (or series of lesions) ≥ 30 mm and ≤ 140 mm (Note: Lesion segment(s) must be fully covered with one ELUVIA stent or up to two Zilver PTX stents)
- Long Lesion Substudy: Total lesion length (or series of lesions) \>140 mm and ≤ 190 mm (Note: Lesion segment(s) will require overlapping of two ELUVIA stents).
- For occlusive lesions requiring use of re-entry device, lesion length ≤ 120 mm
- Long Lesion Substudy: For occlusive lesions requiring use of re-entry device, lesion length \> 120 mm and ≤ 170 mm
- Target lesion located at least three centimeters above the inferior edge of the femur
- Patent infrapopliteal and popliteal artery, i.e., single vessel runoff or better with at least one of three vessels patent (\<50% stenosis) to the ankle or foot with no planned intervention.
You may not qualify if:
- Previously stented target lesion/vessel.
- Target lesion/vessel previously treated with drug-coated balloon \<12 months prior to randomization/enrollment.
- Subjects who have undergone prior surgery of the SFA/PPA in the target limb to treat atherosclerotic disease.
- Use of atherectomy, laser or other debulking devices in the target limb SFA/PPA during the index procedure.
- History of major amputation in the target limb.
- Documented life expectancy less than 24 months due to other medical co-morbid condition(s) that could limit the subject's ability to participate in the clinical trial, limit the subject's compliance with the follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific integrity of the clinical trial.
- Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to contrast dye that, in the opinion of the investigator, cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
- Known hypersensitivity/allergy to the investigational stent system or protocol related therapies (e.g., nitinol, paclitaxel, or structurally related compounds, polymer or individual components, and antiplatelet, anticoagulant, thrombolytic medications).
- Platelet count \<80,000 mm3 or \>600,000 mm3 or history of bleeding diathesis.
- Concomitant renal failure with a serum creatinine \>2.0 mg/dL.
- Receiving dialysis or immunosuppressant therapy.
- History of myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke/cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within 6 months prior to randomization/enrollment.
- Unstable angina pectoris at the time of randomization/enrollment.
- Pregnant, breast feeding, or plan to become pregnant in the next 5 years.
- Current participation in another investigational drug or device clinical study that has not completed the primary endpoint at the time of randomization/enrollment or that clinically interferes with the current study endpoints (Note: studies requiring extended follow-up for products that were investigational, but have become commercially available since then are not considered investigational studies).
