Arms & Interventions
AVF Peripheral study treatment group
Subjects randomised to treatment with the WRAPSODY Endovascular Stent Graft
Intervention: Merit WRAPSODY Endovascular Stent Graft (Device)
AVF Peripheral control group
Subjects randomised to treatment with standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA)
Intervention: PTA (Device)
AVG Anastomosis
All subjects in this single arm cohort will receive treatment with the WRAPSODY Endovascular Stent Graft
Intervention: Merit WRAPSODY Endovascular Stent Graft (Device)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Proportion of subjects without any localized or systemic safety events (Primary Safety Endpoint)
Time Frame: 30 days
Proportion of subjects without any localized or systemic safety events through 30 days post-index procedure that affect the access or venous outflow circuit and resulted in reintervention, hospitalization, or death (not including stenosis or thrombosis). Endovascular procedures performed to treat safety events after the index study procedure will be considered surgeries.
Proportion of subjects with Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) (Primary Effectiveness Endpoint:)
Time Frame: 6 months
Proportion of subjects with Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) at 6 Months. TLPP is defined as freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) or target lesion thrombosis measured through 6 months post-procedure, which is the time interval of uninterrupted patency after study procedure to the next intervention performed on the target lesion or uncorrectable target lesion occlusion.
Secondary Outcomes
- Rates of procedure- and device-related adverse events involving the access circuit(Index procedure, 30 days, and months 6, 12 and 24.)
- Proportion of subjects with Target Lesion Primary Patency(12 and 24 months)
- Proportion of subjects with Assisted Target Lesion Primary Patency (aTLPP)(6, 12 and 24 months)
- Proportion of subjects with Access Circuit Primary Patency (ACPP)(6, 12 and 24 months)
- Proportion of subjects with Post-Procedure Secondary Patency(6, 12 and 24 months)
