  • Subjects already enrolled in other investigational (interventional) studies that would interfere with study endpoints.

Treatment with a Stellarex DCB of the inflow lesion, if according to its intended use, is allowed.

About this study

Official title: ProspectIve, MuLti-Center Study to EvaLUate TreatMent of Subjects With OcclusivE Disease With a Novel PAcliTazel-CoatEd Angioplasty Balloon in Below-The-Knee (BTK) Arteries: a Post Market Clinical Study

The objective of this prospective, multi-center, single arm study is to obtain further data on the safety and performance of the StellarexTM 0.014" OTW Drug-coated Angioplasty Balloon in the treatment of lesions in "below the knee" popliteal (P3 segment) and infra-popliteal arteries according to the Instructions for Use in Rutherford-Becker Classification (RCC) 3, 4 and 5 patient populations. This study will be conducted in Europe across up to 10 centers in up to 75 subjects. Office visits will occur at 30 days, 6, 12, and 24 months post-index procedure.

Read the detailed description

There is a significant amount of evidence that the use of Paclitaxel-coated balloons in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has demonstrated favorable outcomes when used to treat lesions in the superficial femoral and popliteal arteries. For subjects with lesions in the infrapopliteal arteries, which includes lesions in the mid to distal popliteal artery and below, a smaller profile balloon is necessary. Typically, lesions in the SFA and proximal popliteal arteries are treated by larger diameter balloons and larger sized guidewires (most commonly 0.018" or 0.035") which are too large for vessels below-the-knee. For this reason, the Stellarex™ 0.014" OTW Drug-coated Angioplasty Balloon was developed as a line extension to the Stellarex™ 0.035" device in order to accommodate the treatment of these smaller vessels. The Stellarex™ 0.014" balloon has the same drug concentration and is manufactured using a similar method as the Stellarex™ 0.035" device. Additionally, the Stellarex™ 0.035" and 0.014" balloon share a common balloon diameter of 4 mm, a size which was used to treat lesions throughout the popliteal artery in the previous Stellarex 0.035" studies. For the reasons noted above, equivalence between the two devices has been demonstrated. Furthermore, it is believed that the 0.014" device will not demonstrate any performance differences nor change the anticipated or residual risks.

In conclusion, the current study has been developed in agreement with post-market requirements as per the Post Market Clinical Follow up (PMCF) plan. The prospective design of the study, the sample size and the selected outcomes will be able to provide the additional clinical information to support the safe use and performance of the Stellarex 0.014" device in the intended population of patients with below-the-knee arterial disease.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary Safety Endpoint-Composite Major Adverse Limb Events (MALE) + perioperative death (POD); the composite is the number of participants who do not have MALE or POD at 30 days

    Major Adverse Limb Event (MALE) is defined as the composite of either major amputation or major re-intervention through 30 days of the index procedure. Major re-intervention is defined as creation of a new surgical bypass graft, the use of thrombectomy or thrombolysis or a major surgical graft revision such as a jump graft or an interposition graft. This is a single endpoint as it is a composite only subjects who do not have MALE or POD will be counted toward this endpoint MALE is defined as the composite of either major amputation or major re-intervention through 30 days of the index procedure. Major re-intervention is defined as creation of a new surgical bypass graft, the use of thrombectomy or thrombolysis or a major surgical graft revision such as a jump graft or an interposition graft. POD is all-cause death through 30 days of the index procedure.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Primary Performance Endpoint-Composite patency + limb salvage through 6 months; the composite is the number of participants with patency and limb salvage at 6 months

    Patency defined as freedom from occluded target lesions (flow/no flow) verified by duplex ultrasound and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) Freedom from major amputation in the Target Limb

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing StellarexTM 0.014" Over-The-Wire Drug-coated Angioplasty Balloon in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by Spectranetics Corporation at 10 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Germany, United Kingdom, Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Safety Endpoint-Composite Major Adverse Limb Events (MALE) + perioperative death (POD); the composite is the number of participants who do not have MALE or POD at 30 days (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Jan 2024.
