  • Concurrent enrollment in another trial
  • Main renal arteries < 4 mm in lumen diameter or < 20 mm in length
  • Aorto-renal angle that prevents a safe cannulation of the renal artery
  • Severe common femoral artery, common and/or external iliac artery, renal, iliac or aortic calcification or tortuosity that may compromise the safe performance and completion of the procedure
  • Hemodynamically or anatomically significant renal artery abnormality or stenosis in either renal artery
  • Any renal artery stenosis > 50% by visual assessment
  • Any renal artery aneurysm in either renal artery
  • A history of prior renal artery balloon angioplasty or stenting (for patients in Cohort A and B only, also a history of prior renal denervation at any time)
