The primary safety endpoint is defined as freedom from the composite of all-cause death, above-ankle amputation or major reintervention (new bypass graft, jump/interposition graft revision, or thrombectomy/thrombolysis) of the index limb involving a below-the-knee artery.

Number of Participants With Freedom From the Composite of Above-ankle Amputation, Target Lesion Occlusion, and Clinically-driven Target Lesion Revascularization at 6 Months Post Index Procedure.6 months post-index procedure

The primary efficacy endpoint is defined as freedom from the composite of above-ankle amputation, target lesion occlusion, and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization. All amputations included in endpoints refer to amputations in the index limb.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Procedures With Procedural Success at Time of Index Procedure.At time of Index Procedure

A success is determined if there is restoration of at least 1 infrapopliteal artery with residual stenosis ≤ 30% (or ≤ 50% depending upon the version of the protocol) and inline outflow to the foot, irrespective of device success, and without a major adverse event during the index procedure.

Change in European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EuroQol -5D) Scores at 30 Days, 6 and 12 Months Compared to Baseline.30 days, 6 and 12 months post index procedure compared to baseline

Mean change in EuroQol (EQ-5D) scores at 30 days, 6, and 12 months compared to baseline. The EurolQol-5D system rates quality of life using five dimensions including mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels of ratings, that is, no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems that can be selected. A visual scale allows participants to report their own perception of their health status. The overall scores range from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Please note that the data in the table below represent the mean changes in overall scores for each group compared to their baseline data. Results for 24 and 36 months will be reported when the final Clinical Study Report becomes available.

Primary patency with exclusion of early mechanical recoil of the target flow pathway is defined as the absence of both total occlusion (100% diameter stenosis) of the target lesions and clinically-driven TLR events \> 30 days.

Results for 24 and 36 months will be reported when the final Clinical Study Report becomes available.
