Chronic Total Occlusion of Artery of the Extremities study: FastWire System - Peripheral

Official title FastWire REvascularisation of Extremities, (For LOWer Limbs) - FREEFLOW

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06492733

What this study is testing

What it's testing
This study is testing whether a new tool helps doctors open blocked leg arteries. It also checks if the tool is safe to use.
Who it's for
You may be able to join if you have a fully blocked artery in your leg.
What's involved
You would get a procedure to open the blocked artery. Doctors would use the new tool to help guide other devices into the artery.
Time commitment

  • Subject participating in another study involving an investigational drug or device.
  • Patient has surgery or vascular intervention planned within 30 days of the index procedure.
  • Patient has had a previous peripheral bypass that includes the target vessel.
  • Patient has had a previous intervention in the target CTO (angioplasty, stenting) including previous attempt at time of index procedure.
  • Patient tests positive for coronavirus disease (COVID-2019), as per site standard practice.
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) of less than 30 ml/min or creatine level \>2.5mg/ml.

  • Has an acute or sub-acute intraluminal thrombus within the target vessel.
  • Aneurysm distal to puncture access site at least twice the reference vessel diameter, located in the index vessel, abdominal aorta, iliac, or popliteal.
  • Has perforation, dissection, or other injury of the access site or index vessel requiring stenting or surgical intervention prior to attempting crossing of the target lesion with the FastWire System.
