  • Subject (or Legal Guardian if applicable) has signed the consent form and is willing and able to provide consent before any study-specific tests or procedures are performed and agrees to attend all required follow-up visits

  • Chronic, symptomatic lower limb ischemia defined as Rutherford categories 2, 3 or 4

  • Stenotic, restenotic (from angioplasty only, previous treatment with drug coated balloon is not allowed) or occlusive lesion(s) located in the native superficial femoral artery or proximal popliteal artery:

    1. Degree of stenosis ≥70% by visual angiographic assessment

    2. Vessel diameter ≥ 4 and ≤ 6mm

    3. Total lesion length (or series of lesions) ≥30 mm and ≤110 mm

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary Patency9-months

Primary patency of target lesion at 9-months assessed by duplex ultrasound (DUS) as adjudicated by an independent core laboratory. Primary Patency: percentage (%) of lesions (target stented segments) that reach endpoint without a hemodynamically significant stenosis on DUS and without target lesion revascularization (TLR) or, bypass of the target lesion.
