About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety Comparison of the Open (Femoral-popliteal Proximal Bypass) and Endovascular (Recanalization With Angioplasty and Stenting With Biomimetic Interwoven Nitinol Stent) Surgical Methods for the Treatment of Long Atherosclerotic Lesions of the Femoral-popliteal Segment Above the Knee, TASC II, Type D

Endovascular revascularization and open bypass grafting above the knee show comparable results in primary 2-year patency (about 65%) in medium-length lesions - TASC II, C (Pereira et al, 2006). At the same time, a recent study, where the authors studied the effectiveness of stenting of long lesions (200 mm or more) of the chronic occlusions of the femoropopliteal segments (TASC II, D), showed unsatisfactory results (primary patency 45%) of the stented segment within 2 years (Lin et al, 2015). One of the possible solutions to the problem of breakage of stents in the femoral-popliteal position is a modified method of their manufacture by braiding from nitinol wire. Some studies with intervowen nitinol stents did show their resistance to breakage in this position. Moreover, the primary patency was > 70%. (Werner et al, 2014). These data suggest a better primary patency rate within 2 years with a longer lesion length (>200 mm).

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label study. The main objective of the study is to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of two therapies for the treatment of prolonged atherosclerotic lesions of the arteries of the femoropopliteal segment above the knee, TASC II type D - femoropopliteal proximal shunting and recanalization with angioplasty and stenting using biomimetic interwoven nitinol stent in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease at 24 months. Secondary objectives are to identify predictors of restenosis and occlusions of the operating segment and compare the quality of life of patients after the procedure. It is planned to recruit 110 patients (55 patients in each group). Observation period 2 years. Primary endpoint:

-The effectiveness of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (primary patency, primary-assisted patency, secondary patency).

Secondary endpoints:

  • Clinical efficacy of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (MALE);
  • Safety of the method of surgical treatment in the early postoperative period (hematoma of the surgical access area, peripheral neuropathy, purulent-infectious complications of the surgical access area) and after 24 months (MACE);
  • Assessment of the quality of life in patients after surgical treatment at 6, 12, and 24 months (SF-36 questionnaire);
  • Evaluation of prognostic factors for adverse outcomes after surgical treatment.

Endovascular revascularization and open bypass grafting above the knee show comparable results in primary 2-year patency (about 65%) in medium-length lesions - TASC II, C (Pereira et al, 2006). At the same time, a recent study, where the authors studied the effectiveness of stenting of long lesions (200 mm or more) of the chronic occlusions of the femoropopliteal segments (TASC II, D), showed unsatisfactory results (primary patency 45%) of the stented segment within 2 years (Lin et al, 2015). One of the possible solutions to the problem of breakage of stents in the femoral-popliteal position is a modified method of their manufacture by braiding from nitinol wire. Some studies with interwoven nitinol stents did show their resistance to breakage in this position. Moreover, the primary patency was > 70%. (Werner et al, 2014). These data suggest a better primary patency rate within 2 years with a longer lesion length (>200 mm).

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label study. The main objective of the study is to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of two therapies for the treatment of prolonged atherosclerotic lesions of the arteries of the femoropopliteal segment above the knee, TASC II type D - femoropopliteal proximal shunting and recanalization with angioplasty and stenting using biomimetic interwoven nitinol stent in patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease at 24 months. Secondary objectives are to identify predictors of restenosis and occlusions of the operating segment and compare the quality of life of patients after the procedure.

The analysis of literature data showed, that two-year primary patency after endovascular revascularization using a nitinol stent in long lesions was 60%. At the same time, the two-year primary patency after the femoropopliteal proximal bypass was 56% (Enzmann et al. Nitinol stent versus bypass in long femoropopliteal lesions: 2-year results of a randomized controlled trial. JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. 2019 Dec 23; 12 (24): 2541-9.). Considering these data, it should be assumed that the use of biomimetic interwoven nitinol stents will slightly improve the primary patency parameters within 2 years in the stenting group. The 2-year primary patency after stenting of the femoropopliteal segment with an interwoven nitinol stent was 76% (Scheinert et al., 2011). A power analysis was performed to calculate the sample size of the "non-inferiority" design for a study power of 80%, a type 1 error probability of 5%, and a non-inferiority margin of 10%. It is planned to recruit 110 patients (55 patients in each group). The observation period of 2 years. Primary endpoint:

-The effectiveness of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (primary patency, primary-assisted patency, secondary patency).

Secondary endpoints:

  • Clinical efficacy of the method of surgical treatment after 24 months (MALE);
  • Safety of the method of surgical treatment in the early postoperative period (hematoma of the surgical access area, peripheral neuropathy, purulent-infectious complications of the surgical access area) and after 24 months (MACE);
  • Assessment of the quality of life in patients after surgical treatment at 6, 12, and 24 months (SF-36 questionnaire);
  • Evaluation of prognostic factors for adverse outcomes after surgical treatment. Screening It is performed in patients with a verified diagnosed occlusive lesion of the femoropopliteal segment above the knee joint (type D according to the TASC II classification), with chronic ischemia of the lower extremities of 3-6 categories according to Rutherford.

What participants receive

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

  • Endovascular recanalization with angioplasty and stenting with the biomimetic interwoven nitinol stentProcedure or surgery

    Under local anesthesia, a standard endovascular approach is performed and the affected arterial segment is visualized. Transluminal or subintimal recanalization of the occluded arterial segment is performed with a hydrophilic guidewire. Next, balloon angioplasty of the recanalized segment is performed. After control angiography, a biomimetic interwoven nitinol stent is placed throughout the lesion.

    Drug therapy includes pre-procedure aspirin (160-300 mg/day), starting at least one day before, and intra-procedure heparin (100 U / kg body weight intravenously). After the procedure, all patients have prescribed aspirin (100 mg per day) for a long time and clopidogrel (75 mg per day) for 3 months.

  • Femoropopliteal proximal bypassProcedure or surgery

    Under general anesthesia, 2 standard open surgical approaches are performed: first - to the common femoral artery, superficial femoral artery, and deep femoral artery; the second - to the first portion of the popliteal artery. After systemic heparinization, clamps are applied to the arteries. A longitudinal arteriotomy of the popliteal artery is performed, and a distal end-to-side anastomosis is formed between the artery and the shunt. Next, the shunt is passed into the groin wound. Longitudinal arteriotomy of the common femoral artery. A proximal end-to-side anastomosis is formed between the shunt and the common femoral artery. Surgical hemostasis wound drainage and layer-by-layer wound closure are performed.

    Drug therapy includes pre-procedure aspirin (160-300 mg/day), starting at least one day before, and intra-procedure heparin (100 U / kg body weight intravenously). After the procedure, all patients have prescribed aspirin (75-100 mg per day) for a long time.
