PHASE4
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of the ABSOLUTE™ .035 peripheral self-expanding stent system in preventing restenosis of occluded or stenotic superficial femoral or proxima...
Detailed Description
The treatment of stenosis in superficial femoral arteries and/or proximal popliteal arteries with stenting is associated with high restenosis rates, especially with the first generation stents (stainl...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- De novo lesion of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) or proximal popliteal artery within the following parameters:
- 10 mm distal to the origin of the profunda femoris (= 10 mm from the femoral bifurcation in the SFA) and
- 20 mm from the proximal margin of the intercondylar fossa.
- Patients must have symptomatic leg ischemia, requiring treatment of the superficial femoral/proximal popliteal vessel
- Target vessel reference diameter visually estimated to be \> 4.0 mm and \< 7.0 mm
- Target lesion length visually estimated to be \> 40 mm and \< 200 mm
- If the patient has a contralateral SFA or contralateral proximal popliteal lesion, this lesion can be treated as a non-target lesion. The time and way of treatment of the non-target lesion will be left up to the discretion of the investigator
- At least one-vessel run-off to the foot confirmed by baseline angiography
- Patent common iliac artery, common femoral artery and profunda confirmed by baseline angiography. The patent common iliac artery can be obtained during the index procedure by a successful treatment prior to the treatment of the target lesion. Successful treatment being defined as attainment of final residual diameter stenosis of \< 30% without death, stroke, bleeding requiring \> 2 units transfusion, or any other complication which was device or procedure related.
- Patient is acceptable candidate for femoral-popliteal artery bypass surgery
Exclusion
- Previous ipsilateral femoro-popliteal or femoro-tibial surgery
- Presence of a stent in the target vessel
- Prescheduled staged procedures of multiple lesions within the ipsilateral iliac or ipsilateral popliteal arteries within 30 days after the index procedure
- Co-existing aneurysmal disease of the abdominal aorta or iliac or popliteal arteries
- Acute thrombophlebitis or deep vein thrombus
- Any immunosuppressive disorders, groin infection, or acute systemic infection due to any cause or any viral or bacterial infection
- Significant gastrointestinal (GI) bleed within the past month that would contraindicate the use of anti-platelet therapy
- Hemodynamic instability
- Target lesion is restenotic from previous intervention
