PREVENT: Promus BTK
- Conditions
- Peripheral Arterial Disease
- Interventions
- Device: Everolimus-Eluting Stent (PROMUS ELEMENT)
- Registration Number
- NCT01500070
- Lead Sponsor
- Flanders Medical Research Program
- Brief Summary
This is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center monitored trial recruiting patients with critical limb ischemia and with one or more lesions in the arteries below the knee. The immediate and long-term (up to 12 months) outcome of the PROMUS ELEMENT Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific) and the PROMUS ELEMENT PLUS Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific) will be evaluated.
In 2 Belgian centers, 3 German centers and 1 New Zealand center a total of 70 patients will be recruited. Primary endpoint is primary patency at 12 months, defined as absence of restenosis (≥50% stenosis) or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on angiography.

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Drug-eluting stent Everolimus-Eluting Stent (PROMUS ELEMENT) Patients implanted with the PROMUS ELEMENT Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific) or the PROMUS ELEMENT PLUS Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Primary patency 12 months Absence of restenosis (50% stenosis) or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on angiography.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Technical success 1 day post-procedure The ability to cross and dilate the lesion to achieve residual angiographic stenosis no greater than 30%.
Secondary patency rate 1, 6 and 12 month follow-up Defined as flow through the treated lesion maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention after occlusion of the target lesion.
Primary assisted patency rate 1, 6 and 12 month follow-up Defined as flow through the treated lesion maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention completed prior to complete vessel closure.
Clinical success at follow-up 1 day, 1 month, 6 month and 12 month follow-up Defined as an improvement of Rutherford classification at 1 day and 1, 6, 12-month follow-up of one class or more as compared to the pre-procedure Rutherford classification.
Improvement of ankle-brachial index (ABI) 1 day, 1 month, 6 month and 12 month follow-up Defined as an increase of the ABI at 1 day and 1, 6, 12-month follow-up compared to baseline in subjects with compressible arteries and baseline ABI \<0.9.
Serious Adverse Events (SAE) 1 day, 1 month, 6 month and 12 month follow-up Defined as any clinical event that is fatal, life-threatening, or judged to be severe by the investigator; resulted in persistent or significant disability; necessitated surgical or percutaneous intervention; or required prolonged hospitalization.
Hemodynamic primary patency rate 1, 6 and 12 month follow-up Patients that present without a hemodynamically significant stenosis at the target area on duplex ultrasound (systolic velocity ratio no greater than 2.4) and without prior TLR are defined as being primary patent at the given follow-up.
Limb-salvage 1, 6 and 12 month follow-up Absence of major amputation, defined as amputation at or above the ankle, as opposed to minor amputation, being an amputation at or below metatarsal level, preserving functionality of the foot).
Target lesion revascularization (TLR) 1 day, 1 month, 6 month and 12 month follow-up Defined as a repeat intervention to maintain or re-establish patency within the region of the treated arterial vessel plus 5 mm proximal and distal to the treated lesion edge.
