Drug Eluting Balloon in peripherAl inTErvention For Below The Knee Angioplasty Evaluation

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Critical Limb Ischemia
Interventions
Device: POBA
Device: PEB
Registration Number
NCT01558505
Lead Sponsor
Leonardo Bolognese, MD
Brief Summary

Drug-eluting balloon showed positive results in terms of restenosis reduction in peripheral intervention (PTA). The aim of the study is to investigate in a randomized fashion the efficacy and safety of Paclitaxel-eluting balloon (PEB) (In.Pact Amphirion, Invatec, Brescia, Italy) versus non drug-eluting balloon (NEB) (Amphirion deep, Invatec, Brescia, Italy) in diabetic patients with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) undergoing PTA of below-the-knee (BTK) vessels.
