About this study

Official title: The GORE VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis With PROPATEN Bioactive Surface Versus Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty (POBA) for the Treatment of Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) In-Stent Restenosis

This is a prospective, randomized, multi-center study recruiting patients with an in-stent restenosis in the superficial femoral artery. The safety and efficacity of the Viabahn endoprosthesis (W.L. Gore \& Associates), a heparin-bonded endoprosthesis, is compared with plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA). In 4 Belgian and 2 German centers a total of 80 Patients will be recruited. Primary endpoint is primary patency at 12 months, defined as no evidence of restenosis or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on color-flow duplex ultrasound (CFDU) measuring a peak systolic velocity ratio ≤2.5, and without target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 12 months.

In comparison to POBA, it is expected that the use of the Viabahn endoprosthesis (W.L. Gore \& Associates) will result in greater 12 month primary patency of treated superficial femoral artery in-stent restenotic lesions.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary patency at 12 months, defined as no evidence of restenosis or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on color-flow duplex ultrasound (CFDU) and without target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 12 months.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Proportion of subjects who experience serious device-related adverse events within 30 days post-procedure

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Technical success, defined as the ability to cross and dilate the lesion to achieve residual angiographic stenosis no greater than 30%.

    Measured: during procedure

  2. Hemodynamic primary patency rate at 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up.

    Patients that present without a hemodynamically significant stenosis at the target area on duplex ultrasound (systolic velocity ratio no greater than 2.5) and without prior TLR are defined as being primary patent at the given follow-up.

    Measured: 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up

  3. Angiographic primary patency at 12 months

    Angiographic primary patency at 12 months, defined as no evidence of restenosis or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on no Quantitative Angiographic evidence of stenosis > 50%

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Primary assisted patency rate at 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up.

    Primary assisted patency rate at 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up. Defined as flow through the treated lesion maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention completed prior to complete vessel closure.

    Measured: 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up

  5. Secondary patency rate at 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up

    Secondary patency rate at 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up. Defined as flow through the treated lesion maintained by repeat percutaneous intervention after occlusion of the target lesion.

    Measured: 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up

  6. Target lesion revascularization (TLR)

    Target lesion revascularization (TLR) is defined as a repeat intervention to maintain or re-establish patency within the region of the treated arterial vessel plus 5 mm proximal and distal to the device/PTA edge

    Measured: entire follow-up

  7. Clinical success at follow-up

    Clinical success at follow-up is defined as an improvement of Rutherford classification at 1 day and 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up of one class or more as compared to the pre-procedure Rutherford classification.

    Measured: at 1 day and 1, 6, 12, 24-month follow-up

  8. Serious adverse events

    Serious adverse events as defined as any clinical event that is fatal, life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires in-patient hospitalization or unduly prolonged hospitalization, necessitates an intervention to prevent a permanent impairment of a body function or permanent damage to a body structure, is a congenital abnormality/birth defect, a fetal distress or fetal death, results in malignancy

    Measured: during entire follow-up

  9. Stent fracture rate at 12 months

    Stent fracture rate at 12 months, determined by using the following classifications on X-ray:

    1. Class 0 : no strut factures
    2. Class I : single tine fracture
    3. Class II : multiple tine factures
    4. Class III : Stent fracture(s) with preserved alignment of the components
    5. Class IV : Stent fracture(s) with mal-alignment of the components
    6. Class V : Stent fracture(s) in a trans-axial spiral configuration

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing GORE VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis and Plain old balloon angioplasty in people with Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by Flanders Medical Research Program at 6 sites in 2 countries.

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 0 inclusion and 22 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 3 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Belgium, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Primary patency at 12 months, defined as no evidence of restenosis or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on color-flow duplex ultrasound (CFDU) and without target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 12 months. (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01108861, 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 3 Sep 2014.
