Peripheral Arterial Diseases study: Auryon Atherectomy System vs Balloon Angioplasty
Official title Auryon Atherectomy System With Standard Balloon Angioplasty Versus Standard Balloon Angioplasty Alone
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06777901
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The study wants to see if adding the Auryon device to standard balloon angioplasty reduces death, amputation, need for repeat procedures, and keeps the artery open longer.
- Who it's for
- It is looking for people with blockages in the arteries of their lower limbs.
- What's involved
- Participants will receive either the Auryon device with a balloon or just a balloon. They will have the procedure and follow‑up visits and tests to check artery openness.
- Time commitment
- The study lasts until the final follow‑up visit, which is several months after the procedure, with several scheduled visits for monitoring.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment

Who can take part
Adults
You may be able to join if
- Age of subject is ≥ 18.
- Estimated life expectancy ≥1 year.
- Subject is able and willing to comply with all assessments in the study.
- Subject has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to participate, and has signed the approved consent form.
- Rutherford Category classification of 4 or 5 of the target limb.
You likely can't join if
- Target lesion is in a vessel graft or synthetic graft.
- Treatment of target lesion with radial access.
- Planned target limb major amputation (above-the-ankle).
- Acute limb ischemia or required thrombolysis as a primary treatment modality of the target limb.
- History of prior endovascular or surgical procedure on the index limb within 30 days prior to enrollment or planned within 30 days of the index...

Who can join
- Age of subject is ≥ 18.
- Estimated life expectancy ≥1 year.
- Subject is able and willing to comply with all assessments in the study.
- Subject has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to participate, and has signed the approved consent form.
- Rutherford Category classification of 4 or 5 of the target limb.
- Subject is a suitable candidate for angiography and endovascular intervention in the opinion of the investigator or per hospital guidelines.
- Target lesions(s) must be viewed angiographically and have 50-100% stenosis.
- Only a single lesion is included in the study per subject.
- The vessel segment distal to the target lesion must be patent all the way to the ankle, with no significant lesion (≥ 50% stenosis).
- Lesion length ≥50mm and ≤300mm.
- Intraluminal crossing of the lesion. Successful crossing is defined as tip of the guidewire distal to the target lesion in the absence of flow limiting dissections or perforations.
- Target Lesion reference vessel diameter (RVD) between 1.5mm - 4.5mm by investigator estimate.
What rules you out
- Target lesion is in a vessel graft or synthetic graft.
- Treatment of target lesion with radial access.
- Planned target limb major amputation (above-the-ankle).
- Acute limb ischemia or required thrombolysis as a primary treatment modality of the target limb.
- History of prior endovascular or surgical procedure on the index limb within 30 days prior to enrollment or planned within 30 days of the index procedure.
- Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding. (Female people of childbearing potential must be non-breastfeeding and have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days before the procedure.)
- Subject has a known coagulopathy or has bleeding diatheses/disorder, thrombocytopenia with platelet count less than 100,000/microliter / less than 80,000K.
- Subject in whom antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy is contraindicated.
- Subject has known allergy to contrast agents or medications used to perform endovascular intervention that cannot be adequately pre-treated.
- Myocardial infarction within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- History of stroke/CVA/TIA within 60 days prior to enrollment.
- History of thrombolytic therapy within 14 days of enrollment.
- Subject has acute or chronic renal disease defined as serum creatinine of \>2.5 mg/dL or \>220 umol/L, or is on dialysis.
- Subject is participating in another research study involving an investigational agent (pharmaceutical, biologic, or medical device) that has not reached the primary endpoint.
- Subject has other medical, social or psychological problems that, in the opinion of the investigator, preclude them from receiving this treatment, and the study requirements and evaluations pre- and post-treatment.
- Subject experiencing ongoing cardiac problems that per the investigator judgment would not make the subject ideal per the procedure.
- Subject has evidence of intracranial or gastrointestinal bleeding within the past 3 months. Angiographic Exclusion Criteria
- Failure to treat clinically significant inflow lesions in the ipsilateral iliac, femoral, or P1-P2 segments of the popliteal arteries with \<50% residual stenosis with no serious angiographic complications (e.g...
- Residual stenosis, and/or serious angiographic complications (e.g., embolism) prior to the investigational device usage.
- people intended to be treated with the Auryon Atherectomy System for de-novo, restenotic or ISR lesions of the infra-popliteal arteries.
- people presenting with symptomatic PAD with claudication or CLI by Rutherford Category 2 - 6 of the target limb.
- Age of subject is ≥ 18.
- people with any medical condition that would make him/her an inappropriate candidate for treatment with Auryon Atherectomy System as per Instructions for Use (IFU) or investigator's opinion.
- Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding. (Female people of childbearing potential must be non-breastfeeding and have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days before the procedure.)
- Subject is already enrolled in other investigational (treatment) studies that would interfere with study endpoints.
