About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Single Arm, Multi-Center Study to Assess Performance of the Pathway PV Atherectomy System During Percutaneous Peripheral Vascular (PV) Interventions

The Pathway PV Atherectomy System is a rotating, aspirating, expandable catheter for active removal of atherosclerotic debris and thrombus in peripheral vasculature.

This is a prospective, single arm, multi-center study to obtain safety and performance data for the Pathway PV Atherectomy System when used as a primary or adjunctive therapy for percutaneous intervention to remove atherosclerotic disease, debris, and thrombus from the lower limb peripheral vasculature.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pathway PV Atherectomy SystemDevice

    The Pathway PV Atherectomy System is a rotating, aspirating, expandable catheter for active removal of atherosclerotic debris and thrombus in lower limb peripheral vasculature during percutaneous interventional procedures.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Major Adverse Events (MAEs) Within 30 Days

    Major adverse events (MAEs) are any death, target vessel revascularization (TVR), target lesion revascularization (TLR), myocardial infarction (MI), or amputation of the treated limb that occurred within 30 days of the index procedure.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Average Rutherford Classification Score at 6 Months

    Rutherford Classification measures lower limb peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by evaluating and rating symptoms. Score: 0 (no symptoms or discomfort in leg) to 6 (Tissue loss or gangrene in leg)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Average Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) at 6 Months

    Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) is the ratio of the blood pressure in the lower legs to the blood pressure in the arms. Compared to the arm, lower blood pressure in the leg is a symptom of peripheral artery disease (PAD). Range: Normal arteries (1.0 - 1.2) to Severe arterial disease (under 0.5)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Freedom From Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) at 6 Months

    Number of patients that did not require target lesion revascularization 6 months after index procedure.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pathway PV Atherectomy System in people with Peripheral Artery Disease, run by Pathway Medical Technologies Inc..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Jul 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major Adverse Events (MAEs) Within 30 Days (time frame: 30 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00676494, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jul 2009.
