About this study

Official title: Physician Initiated, Prospective, Non-randomized Single-centre, Single-arm Trial, Investigating the Safety and Efficacy of the Treatment With the Non-compliant Jade Balloon in TASC C and D Athero-occlusive Infra-inguinal Disease in Patients With Chronic Limb Threatening Limb Ischemia From SingaporE (PINNACLE)

The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the 6-month safety and performance outcome of the non-compliant high pressure JADE balloon for the treatment of infrainguinal stenotic occlusive or stenotic TASC C \& D lesions in patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia.

Read the detailed description

Pulsatile straight line blood flow to the foot is required to aid wound healing in the setting of chronic limb threatening ischaemia (CLTI). Patients with CLTI usually present with infra-popliteal arterial occlusions and endovascular therapies to restore blood flow are often preferred considering their inherently less invasive nature and because of multiple patient background comorbidities or absence of a suitable vein conduit in these patients. Below The Knee (BTK) plain balloon angioplasty (POBA) remains the only viable "standard of care" in the management of long "Real World" BTK Lesions. However tibial angioplasty is plagued by high rate of re-occlusion/stenosis because of barotrauma caused by the intra-arterial ballooning and subsequent development of neointimal hyperplasia. Devices coated with paclitaxel have been used successfully to limit restenosis by inhibiting the biologic pathway that leads to intimal hyperplasia. However, a recent formal systematic review and study-level meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials investigating treatment of the infra-popliteal arteries with paclitaxel-coated balloons compared with conventional balloon angioplasty for critical limb ischemia (CLI) was recently published showing amputation-free survival was significantly worse in use of paclitaxel coated balloons compared to plain angioplasty. Furthermore current poor patency seen in BTK angioplasty is likely contributed in part by small vessel size and poor luminal gain after standard semi-compliant POBA. Vessel Preparation and Optimising POBA with High Pressure, Non-Compliant balloons may help achieve Luminal Gain for rapid and sustained flow for wound healing. The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the 6-month safety and performance outcome of the non-compliant high pressure JADE balloon for the treatment of infrainguinal stenotic occlusive or stenotic TASC C \& D lesions in patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Freedom from Major Adverse Events

    A composite of freedom from device- and procedure-related mortality through 30 days

    Measured: 30 days post-index procedure

  2. Performance Primary Endpoint

    Freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 6 months post-index procedure. (Clinically driven TLR is defined as any re-intervention performed for ≥ 50% diameter stenosis (visual estimate) at the target lesion after documentation of recurrent or unresolved and continuing clinical symptoms of the patient.)

    Measured: 6 months post-index procedure

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Primary patency rate

    defined as absence of a hemodynamically significant stenosis on Duplex ultrasound (systolic velocity ratio no greater than 2.5) at the target lesion and without TLR within the time of procedure and the given follow-up. Note: Any patient where DUS is not analysable at index and/or at follow-up, where there is documented significant progression of disease above the target lesion, or who undergo a major amputation prior to the time of follow-up will be excluded from the calculation of this endpoint.

    Measured: 6- and 12-month post-index procedure

  2. Technical success

    defined as the ability to cross and dilate the lesion and achieve residual angiographic stenosis no greater than 30%

    Measured: Immediately post-op

  3. Freedom from clinically-driven TLR

    defined as a repeat intervention to maintain or re-establish patency within the region of the treated arterial vessel plus 5mm proximal and distal to the treated lesion edge at the respective time points

    Measured: 12-month post-index procedure

  4. Clinical success at follow-up

    defined as an improvement of Rutherford classification at all follow- up time points of one class or more as compared to the pre-procedure Rutherford classification

    Measured: 6 and 12 months post index procedure

  5. Wound healing

    closure of primary wound by more than 70%

    Measured: 6 months post-index procedure

  6. Freedom from major target limb amputation (above ankle)

    Measured: 6 months and 12 months post-index procedure

  7. Improvements in walking

    Comparison of the scores on the Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ) between baseline and follow-ups.

    Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months post-index procedure.

  8. Freedom from serious adverse events

    as defined per ISO 14155:2011

    Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months post-index procedure.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Freedom from Major Adverse Events (time frame: 30 days post-index procedure). 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 2 Nov 2020.
