简要总结
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the use of intravascular paclitaxel, in addition to standard therapy, for the treatment of arteriovenous dialysis access fistula stenosis.
A fistulogram will be performed in standard fashion. The diagnostic component will include evaluation of the inflow artery, arterial anastomosis and full length of the fistula vein or graft, plus venous return up to the heart. The location, vessel size, lesion diameter and percent stenosis for each lesion will be recorded. Enrollment and randomization will occur at this point.
All patients will then receive standard therapy for their stenosis. This will include intravenous heparin administered in a standard dose of 70 units/kg. Lesions that respond poorly to angioplasty (>30% residual stenosis after angioplasty treatment with 2 inflations) will be stented. Stent selection will be based on clinical setting. Initial stent treatment will utilize an uncovered nitinol stent. Treatment of in-stent restenosis will include initial balloon angioplasty, and use of a covered stent (Viabahn, GORE, or Fluency, Bard). Documentation of location and type of treatment for each lesion treated will be recorded.
Once standard treatment is completed, the operating surgeon will be informed of the patient randomization: treatment (paclitaxel) or control. For subjects assigned to treatment, Paclitaxel solution treatment of each lesion encountered from proximal to distal will be attempted until the 20 mg Paclitaxel dose limit is met.
A TAPAS infusion catheter will be used for all paclitaxel dose administrations. The TAPAS infusion catheter will be positioned to reduce the presence of branches which permit the loss of paclitaxel from the treatment zone. After the full outflow vein segment is treated, the fistulogram is completed in the standard fashion. Prior to removal of the sheath, a final angiographic study of all areas treated is performed to document patency and lesion appearance.
For the control group, instead of paclitaxel administration, a sham treatment period of 10 minutes is allowed to elapse followed by the performance of the final completion angiogram. Any additional lesions identified with this study are then treated appropriately following standard technique.
All patients will follow the same follow up evaluation schedule.

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard Therapy Alone
Standard treatment of all stenotic lesions will be carried out in the usual fashion. Intravenous heparin will be administered in a standard dose of 70 units/kg. Lesions that respond poorly to angioplasty (>30% residual stenosis after angioplasty treatment with 2 inflations) will be stented. Stent selection will be based on clinical setting. Initial stent treatment will utilize an uncovered nitinol stent. Treatment of in-stent restenosis will include initial balloon angioplasty, and use of a covered stent (Viabahn, GORE, or Fluency, Bard).
For this "control" group, no paclitaxel is administered. The sham treatment is a period of 10 minutes that is allowed to elapse followed by the performance of a final completion angiogram to be labeled as "PaciFIST Study Completion Angiogram." Any additional lesions identified with this study are then treated appropriately following standard technique.
干预措施: Standard Therapy (Procedure)
Standard Therapy Plus Paclitaxel
Standard treatment of all stenotic lesions will be carried out in the usual fashion. Intravenous heparin will be administered in a standard dose of 70 units/kg. Lesions that respond poorly to angioplasty (>30% residual stenosis after angioplasty treatment with 2 inflations) will be stented. Stent selection will be based on clinical setting. Initial stent treatment will utilize an uncovered nitinol stent. Treatment of in-stent restenosis will include initial balloon angioplasty, and use of a covered stent (Viabahn, GORE, or Fluency, Bard).
For this "treatment" group, Paclitaxel solution treatment of each lesion encountered from proximal to distal will be attempted until the 20 mg Paclitaxel dose limit is met.

结局指标
主要结局
Target Lesion Revascularization.
时间窗: 6 months
Target lesion revascularization (TLR) is defined as the need for subsequent clinically driven repeat angioplasty, stent placement or other intervention to correct the recurrence of a stenosis at the site treated within 6 months of the initial treatment.
Target Segment Revascularization.
时间窗: 6 months
Target segment revascularization (TSR) is defined as the need for secondary clinically driven repeat angioplasty, stent placement or other intervention to correct the recurrence of a stenosis in the outflow segment of cephalic vein treated with paclitaxel.
次要结局
- Overall safety based on SAEs(6 months)
- Binary Restenosis(6 months)
- Primary Patency: Fistula(6 months)
