What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Efficacy Endpoint - Mean Reduction in Percent Stenosis

    The primary efficacy endpoint target was a mean reduction in percent stenosis of greater than 20% in each study participating at the time of the procedure by Angiographic Core Lab assessment after Turbo-Elite use. A participant showing a mean reduction of 20% was considered a success for the primary efficacy endpoint.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Primary Safety Endpoint is Freedom From Major Adverse Event (MAE)

    The primary safety endpoint target was 80% of study participant with freedom from a Major Adverse Event (MAE) through 30 day follow-up. A MAE was defined as: all cause death, major amputation in the target limb, or target lesion revascularization.

    Measured: 30 day follow-up

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Final Procedure Residual Stenosis After All Therapy

    A Final Procedure Residual Stenosis by visual assessment after all therapy will be accessed acutely during the procedure.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Characterization of Adjunctive Therapy Use

    Adjunctive therapy use will be characterized by frequencies.

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Change From Baseline to 30 Days.

    ABI will be assessed at baseline and within 30 days of the procedure. The ABI is calculated ratio of the highest ankle blood pressure to the highest arm blood pressure. The ABI is a non-invasive tool for screening for Peripheral Artery Disease.

    Measured: Baseline and 30 Days post-procedure

  4. Rutherford Class (RCC) Change

    Rutherford Class (RCC) will be assessed at baseline and within 30 days of the procedure. The Rutherford-Becker Clinical Categories (RCC) are a classification system of chronic limb ischemia ranging from 0 (asymptomatic; no hemodynamically significant occlusive disease) to 6 (major tissue loss, extending above transmetatarsal level, functional foot no longer salvageable). Lower categories represent better clinical status.

    Measured: Baseline and 30 days of procedure

  5. Freedom From Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) Through 180 Days.

    Freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR) through 180 days post procedure

    Measured: Day 180 (6 Months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Turbo-Elite Laser Catheter in people with Peripheral Arterial Disease and Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by Spectranetics Corporation.

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 10 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 27 Aug 2021. 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 27 Aug 2021). 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?

Primary Efficacy Endpoint - Mean Reduction in Percent Stenosis (time frame: Day 1). 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?
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 27 Aug 2021.
