Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia Treated with Intravascular Lithotripsy Observational Study

Recruiting
Conditions
Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia
Interventions
Device: Shockwave Medical IVL System
Registration Number
NCT06149650
Lead Sponsor
Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe
Brief Summary

CALCIO is a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study that will collect real world data on the use of intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) with the Shockwave IVL system to disrupt calcified femoropopliteal and crural lesions in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). The primary objective of CALCIO is to understand the effectiveness of IVL in promoting wound healing and preventing amputation. The secondary objectives of CALCIO are to evaluate the immediate effectiveness of the treatment in restoring vessel patency as well as its safety and impact on patients' quality of life.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Wound healing and freedom from amputation12 months

Composite of wound healing defined as the healing status of the dominant ischemic wound of the target limb (complete, partial, unchanged, worsening) and freedom from amputation defined as the absence of any amputation of the treated limb: minor (digital, metatarsal), major below the knee or major above the knee (excluding any amputation planned before the IVL procedure).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Rutherford classification category12 and 24 months

Seven classification categories, from 0 (asymptomatic) to 6 (Major tissue loss)

Change in foot ischemia12 and 24 months

Change in ankle-brachial index or toe pressure, depending on which data is available

Amputation-free survivalthrough study completion, approximately 2 years

time between IVL treatment and amputation of the target limb, minor (digital, metatarsal), major below the knee or major above the knee (excluding any amputation planned before the IVL procedure)

Change in WIfi score12 and 24 months

Three-digit score for comprehensive assessment of wound, ischemia and foot infection

Freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR)12 and 24 months

freedom from any endovascular re-intervention to the target lesion (± 10 mm) or surgical bypass performed because of restenosis or occlusion of the target lesion.

CD-TLR-free survivalthrough study completion, approximately 2 years

time between IVL treatment and any endovascular re-intervention to the target lesion (± 10 mm)

Wound healing24 months

Healing status of the dominant ischemic wound of the target limb (complete, partial, unchanged, worsening)

Overall procedural successon the day of the procedure

residual stenosis ≤30% by the end of the complete procedure

Secondary patency rate12 and 24 months

freedom from total occlusion following additional endovascular or surgical intervention(s) due to occlusion of the target lesion

Frequency and severity of procedural complications and other adverse eventsWithin 30 days after the procedure

Grading according to the classification system of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe (PMID: 28584945)

Freedom from amputation24 months

Absence of any amputation of the treated limb: minor (digital, metatarsal), major below the knee or major above the knee (excluding any amputation planned before the IVL procedure).

Primary patency rate12 and 24 months

freedom from total occlusion without any endovascular or surgical re-intervention to the target lesion (± 10 mm)

Technical success of IVLon the day of the procedure

residual diameter stenosis ≤30% after IVL and before any potential adjunctive intervention

Patient-reported health-related quality-of-lifeat 6, 12 and 24 months

EuroQol questionnaire EQ-5D-5L

Assisted primary patency rate12 and 24 months

freedom from total occlusion following additional endovascular or surgical intervention(s) due to restenosis of the target lesion
