22 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective, open label, multicenter, single arm, first in human clinical study. Patients with infra-inguinal peripheral arterial disease appropriate for treatment with a femoro-popliteal stent will be enrolled. The patients will be treated with the ChampioNIR Stent System. All implanted patients will be followed up at 30 days and 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. The follow-up visits will include patency evaluation by duplex ultrasound
The superficial femoral artery (SFA) is frequently involved in atherosclerosis and is the most common target of lower extremity endovascular procedures performed in patients with claudication. Endovascular treatment of SFA is challenging, given its exceptional predisposition to atherosclerosis and its exposure to extreme mechanical forces of extension, compression, torsion and flexion. The SFA is located in a fibro-muscular canal, follows a tortuous course and is considered a 'hostile' location for endovascular procedures, especially stents due to the risk of stent fracture. On the other hand, durability of balloon angioplasty in the SFA is dismal (25% patency at 1 year). Therefore, Nitinol (a metal alloy of nickel and titanium) stent implantation is the mainstay of endovascular SFA interventions when balloon angioplasty (PTA) leads to sub-optimal results during a procedure. It is used in over 70% of all cases and in nearly 100% of all femoro-popliteal (FP) CTO (chronic total occlusions) and long (≥60 mm) interventions. Endovascular treatment of SFA is challenging and restenosis is the most common cause for the lack of durability of a SFA peripheral vascular interventional procedure.5 Restenosis rates of SFA bare metal (nitinol) stents or BMS at 1 year exceeds 50% for lesions ≥60 mm in length or CTO. Stent based treatment of the SFA may not offer any additional advantage for short non-CTO (\<60 mm) lesions compared to PTA. In a recent study, primarily comparing drug-eluting stents (DES) to balloon angioplasty in the SFA, 12 month patency rates were 83.1% and 32.8%, respectively for DES and balloon angioplasty arms. However, there are no head-to head studies randomized studies comparing DES and BMS in the SFA. Thus, endovascular SFA intervention in patients with symptomatic PAD is an area of urgent need for high-quality evidence as volume of these procedures continues to rise exponentially in the U.S. and around the world, largely on the basis of insufficient evidence.Thus, the purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot trial comparing DES and BMS for percutaneous revascularization of SFA.

OSPREY is a multi-center, single arm, non-randomized, prospective clinical trial. Subjects will undergo a superficial femoral artery (SFA) stent procedure using the Misago™ Peripheral Self Expanding stent once all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria are met. The stent efficacy and safety will be evaluated immediately post procedure, and at 30 days, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months post procedure. A subject is considered enrolled into the OSPREY study after he/she signs the informed consent and meets all inclusion/exclusion criteria. The study objectives are to demonstrate that efficacy and safety of this novel stent design are not inferior to historical Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) and stent outcomes and meet the performance goals as published in the objective performance goals by Rocha-Singh, et al. This is a multi-center, single arm, non-randomized, prospective clinical trial of the Misago™ Self-Expanding Stent System for the treatment of atherosclerotic stenosis and occlusions of the SFA. The primary endpoint of stent patency will be evaluated at 12 months.
This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single arm, pivotal trial. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the IDev SUPERA® Nitinol Stent System in treating subjects with obstructive superficial femoral artery (SFA) disease. The primary endpoint will be the primary patency of the SFA evaluated at 12 months. The outcome will be compared to a performance goal based on clinical trials of percutaneous transvenous angioplasty (PTA) alone.
The purpose of this study is to compare the different endovascular treatment modalities for the femoropopliteal segment, and to determine technical success, efficacy and patency at mid-term follow-up. Modalities include; Angioplasty/stent (Control group, Guidant), Cryoplasty/stent (Boston Scientific), Laser Angioplasty/stent (Spectranetics), SilverHawk Atherectomy/stent (Fox Hollow), and Viabahn Endograft (WL Gore).
Despite recent advances in stent technology and its widespread application in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease (PVD), incidences of partial or complete blockage of stent lumen (in-stent restenosis) due to in growth of cells (neo-intimal proliferation) is unacceptably high. In diabetics with long superficial femoral artery (SFA) lesions, in-stent restenosis rates are higher than in non-diabetics. Consequently interventional techniques that curtail in-stent restenosis have to be explored. Cryoplasty is a stent expansion method in which a balloon is expanded using pressurized nitrous oxide gas. As the nitrous oxide expands in the balloon it cools the surroundings to about -10 degrees C. This induces programed death (apoptosis) of the smooth muscle cells in arterial wall. The investigators hypothesize that Cryoplasty, by inducing an apoptotic smooth muscle cell response, when applied to post-dilation of nitinol self-expanding stents in the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) of diabetics, would lead to decreased in-stent restenosis due to decreased neointimal proliferation.
This study aims to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the SELUTION SLR™ 018 DEB compared to plain (uncoated) balloon angioplasty in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and proximal popliteal artery (PPA).
The primary objective of the TORUS 2 IDE Clinical Study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TORUS Stent Graft System in the treatment of obstructive atherosclerotic lesions of the native SFA or the superficial femoral and/or proximal popliteal arteries.
This study evaluates the local inflammatory and resolution response of patients undergoing peripheral vascular intervention like an angioplasty of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) or popliteal artery, or stenting of the iliac artery or SFA, through the use of Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI). PET/MRI will be performed prior to intervention, one day and one week after intervention.
The primary objective of the randomized study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TIGRIS Vascular Stent in the treatment of de novo and restenotic atherosclerotic lesions, ≤ 24cm in length, in the superficial femoral and proximal popliteal arteries (SFA/PPA) of patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
This is a clinical study of a new self-expanding stent (FlexStent®) designed specifically to cope with the extreme demands of the superficial femoral artery (SFA)/proximal popliteal artery. The arteries are often abbreviated as femoropopliteal. The intent of this study is to demonstrate that the FlexStent® Femoropopliteal Self-Expanding Stent System is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with peripheral arterial disease. Specifically, the FlexStent® shall meet or exceed the proposed safety and efficacy performance goals established for Femoropopliteal bare nitinol stents in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease.
This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized study of the Wildcat Catheter to cross a single femoropopliteal chronic total occlusion (CTO). Safety and efficacy will be evaluated during the index procedure through 30-day follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevention of Restenosis following Revascularization of the superficial Femoral Artery (SFA)
Several studies have shown that stenting of the femoropopliteal artery in the lower leg leads to improved overall results compared to balloon angioplasty alone. However, scar tissue development can occur within the stent, a process called restenosis. Treatment of these in-stent restenotic lesions has a high procedural success rate but recurrence of scar tissue is frequently seen. Several methods have been proposed to treat in-stent restenosis in the lower leg arteries but mixed results have been noted. In this study we hypothesize that simultaneous tissue excision and aspiration using the JetStream Navitus device (Medrad) can lead to a high rate of acute procedural success with low intraprocedural complications and an acceptable recurrence rate of restenosis at 6-month follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the CROSSER CTO Recanalization System can facilitate the successful crossing of Chronic Total Occlusions in the Central lumen of the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA). A Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) is defined as 100% narrowing of the artery, with no angiographically detectable antegrade blood flow, and the assessment that the lesion has been in existence for a minimum of 30 days. This study will enroll up to 100 patients at up to 8 clinical sites. The CROSSER CTO Recanalization System was cleared for commercialization by the US Food \& Drug Administration. This study also involves an imaging device called the IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging) catheter. This device has been cleared for commercialization by the US Food and Drug Administration and will be studied for its cleared intended use. The IVUS catheter is used to generate real-time images of the artery, which will allow for evaluation of the artery after the occlusion is crossed. This is a post-market registry.
