a Physician-inititated Trial Investigating the iVolution Nitinol Stent

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Peripheral Arterial Disease
Interventions
Device: iVolution nitinol stent
Registration Number
NCT02430922
Lead Sponsor
Flanders Medical Research Program
Brief Summary

The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the short-term (up to 12 months) outcome of treatment by means of the self-expanding iVolution nitinol stent in symptomatic (Rutherford 2-4) femoropopliteal arterial stenotic or occlusive lesions.

  3. Previous bypass surgery in the same limb
  4. Patients contraindicated for antiplatelet therapy, anticoagulants or thrombolytics
  5. Patients who exhibit persistent acute intraluminal thrombus at the target lesion site
  6. Perforation at the angioplasty site evidenced by extravasation of contrast medium
  7. Patients with known hypersensitivity to nickel-titanium or other study device components
  8. Patients with uncorrected bleeding disorders
  9. Female patient with child bearing potential not taking adequate contraceptives or currently breastfeeding
  10. Life expectancy of less than 12 months
  11. Ipsilateral iliac artery treatment before target lesion treatment with a residual stenosis > 30%
  12. Use of thrombectomy, atherectomy or laser devices during procedure
  13. Any patient considered to be hemodynamically unstable at onset of procedure
  14. Patient is currently participating in another investigational drug or device study that has not reached the primary endpoint

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary Patency at 12 months12 months

freedom from \>50% restenosis at 12 months as indicated by an independently verified duplex ultrasound peak systolic velocity ratio (PSVR) \<2.5 in the target vessel with no reintervention

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary Patency at 1 & 6 months1 & 6 months
Technical SuccessProcedure
Freedom from Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) at 1, 6 and 12 monthsat all follow-up visits
Serious adverse events until follow-up completions1,6,12 months and interem visits

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.

Clinical Success at 1, 6 and 12 monthsat all follow-up visits

Clinical success at follow-up is defined as an improvement of Rutherford classification at 1-, 6- \& 12-month follow-up of one class or more as compared to the pre-procedure Rutherford classification.
