What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Procedure Success

    Procedure Success defined as ≤50% residual stenosis for all treated target lesions without serious angiographic complications (flow-limiting dissection, perforation, distal embolization, or acute vessel closure) as assessed by the angiographic core lab at the final timepoint.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Number of Participants With Major Adverse Limb Events (MALE) + Post-Operative Death (POD)

    Major Adverse Limb Events (MALE) + Post-Operative Death (POD) at 30 days defined as a composite of:

    • all-cause death
    • above-ankle amputation of the index limb
    • major reintervention (new bypass graft, jump/interposition graft revision, or thrombectomy/thrombolysis) of the index limb involving a BTK artery

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Subjects Without Serious Angiographic Complications

    Subject Success defined as final residual stenosis ≤ 50% in the target lesion without serious angiographic complications as assessed by the angiographic core lab. Serious angiographic complications include (flow-limiting dissection, perforation, distal embolization, or acute vessel closure) as assessed by the angiographic core lab

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Number of Lesions With Technical Success

    Lesion Success defined as final residual stenosis ≤50% in the target lesion without serious angiographic complications as assessed by the angiographic core lab

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Number of Patients With Primary Patency

    Primary Patency at 6 and 12 months defined as the absence of both total occlusion (100% diameter stenosis by DUS) in all of the target lesions in a flow pathway, as well as a Clinically-Driven Target Lesion Revascularization (CD-TLR)

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

  3. Number of Participants Free From Clinically-driven Target Lesion Revascularization (CD-TLR)

    Clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) defined as a composite of:

    • CD-TLR
    • Major target limb amputation

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Number of Participants With Major Adverse Events (MAE)

    Major Adverse Events (MAE) at 30 days defined as a composite of:

    • Need for emergency surgical revascularization of target limb
    • Unplanned target limb major amputation (above the ankle)
    • Symptomatic thrombus or distal emboli that require surgical, mechanical, or pharmacologic means to improve flow, and extend hospitalization
    • Perforations that require an intervention, including bail-out stenting

    Measured: 30 days

  5. VascuQoL Reported as Change From Baseline

    The VascuQoL-6 is a short, disease-specific questionnaire used to measure health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), specifically those with intermittent claudication and critical limb ischemia.

    Measured: 30 days, 6, 12 & 24 months

  6. Ankle-brachial Index (ABI) Reported as Change From Baseline

    The ABI is the ratio of systolic blood pressure measured at the ankle to systolic blood pressure measured at the brachial artery. Ideally, this ratio should be 1.0, but is often less in a subject with peripheral arterial disease.

    Measured: 30 days

  7. Rutherford Category Reported as Change From Baseline

    The Rutherford classification is a system used to categorize the severity of peripheral artery disease (PAD), specifically chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), based on symptoms and tissue loss. The classification ranges are from Class 0 where no symptoms of PAD are present and the patient has no claudication or tissue loss to Class 6 where patients have extensive tissue loss, including gangrene, that extends above the transmetatarsal level (the area above the bones of the foot). A higher score on the Rutherford Classification Scale is indicative of a worse outcome.

    Measured: 30 days

  8. Toe-brachial Index (TBI) Reported as Change From Baseline

    The TBI is the ratio of systolic blood pressure measured at the toe to systolic blood pressure at the brachial artery. Ideally, this ratio should be 1.0, but is often less in a subject with peripheral arterial disease.

    Measured: 30 Days

  9. Number of Participants Free From Major Target Limb Amputation

    Measured: 30 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intravascular Lithotripsy in people with Peripheral Artery Disease, run by Shockwave Medical, Inc. at 43 sites in 2 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 16 inclusion and 29 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 5 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites in United States, Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Aug 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Procedure Success (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05007925, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 May 2026.
