About this study

Official title: KAIZEN: Safety and Effectiveness Evaluation of Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) for the treatment of adult Japanese subjects with a de novo symptomatic calcified occlusive atherosclerotic lesion in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or popliteal (POP) artery, which would be otherwise ineligible for endovascular therapy due to risk of complication. Study objective is to collect safety and effectiveness data to support potential commercialization of the peripheral OAS device in Japan.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Acute Device Success

    The percentage of subjects with the following, post-procedure:

    1. ≤50% residual stenosis post OAD + POBA [Angiographic Core Lab assessed] and,
    2. No OAS-related severe angiographic complications defined as severe dissections (D-F), perforation, or distal emboli requiring additional treatment during the procedure [CEC adjudicated].

    Measured: At the end of the procedure

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Change in Lesion Stenosis

    The percentage changes in diameter stenosis of the target lesion at each stage of the procedure: Baseline, Post OAD, Post POBA and Post DCB [Angiographic Core Lab assessed].

    Measured: Baseline, Post OAD, Post POBA

  2. Acute Technical Success

    Acute technical success defined per the Peripheral Academic Research Consortium (PARC) definition of achievement of a final residual stenosis <30% for stented and <50% for non-stented subjects by angiography at the end of the procedure [Angiographic Core Lab assessed] without severe angiographic complications defined as severe dissections (D-F), perforation, or distal emboli requiring additional treatment during the procedure [CEC adjudicated].

    Measured: At the end of the procedure

  3. Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) Device Success

    DCB Device Success defined as the ability to achieve successful delivery and deployment of all DCB to the target lesion as described per the Instructions for Use (IFU) within 3 minutes of insertion without removal and use of an additional device.

    Measured: Within 3 minutes of insertion of DCB

  4. Target Vessel Patency

    Target Vessel Patency is a binary composite endpoint comprised of:

    • CEC adjudicated absence of clinically driven repeat procedure performed for ≥50% stenosis confirmed by angiography within all or part of the target lesion after documentation of recurrent clinical symptoms of PAD following clinical trial treatment procedure (i.e. clinically-driven TLR) occurring at any time-point on, or prior to the 6-month visit date and,
    • a Duplex Ultrasound Core Lab assessed PSVR value of ≤2.4 (or equivalent by visual assessment if the lesion is non-patent and the PSVR cannot be numerically calculated).

    The vessel is considered patent if both criteria are met at the time of assessment.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  5. Rate of Severe Angiographic Complications

    Rate of severe angiographic complications defined as severe dissections (D-F), perforation, or distal emboli requiring additional treatment during the procedure [CEC adjudicated]

    Measured: At the end of the procedure

  6. Acute Procedural Success

    Acute procedural success is defined as both acute technical success and absence of death, stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), acute onset of limb ischemia, index bypass graft or treated segment thrombosis, and/or need for urgent/emergent vascular surgery within 72 hours of the clinical trial treatment [CEC adjudicated].

    Measured: 72 hours after index procedure

  7. Rate of Major Adverse Event (MAE)

    Major Adverse Event (MAE) rate at 30 days and 6 months (CEC adjudicated) was defined as:

    1. All-cause death through 30 days or
    2. Major amputation of the target limb or
    3. Clinically-driven TLR

    Measured: 30 days and 6 months

  8. Change of Rutherford Classification (ITT Population)

    Rutherford Classification; Class 0: Asymptomatic; no hemodynamically significant occlusive disease.

    Class 1: Mild Claudication; there is no limitation with ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking several blocks, climbing stairs). Limiting symptoms may occur with marked exertion (e.g., strenuous, rapid or prolonged exertion at work or recreation).

    Class 2: Moderate Claudication; there is a slight limitation of ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking uphill, or more than two level blocks, or climbing stairs rapidly). Subject is comfortable at rest.

    Class 3: Severe Claudication; there is marked limitation of ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking 1-2 level blocks or climbing one flight of stairs). Subject is comfortable at rest.

    Class 4: Ischemic rest pain. Class 5: Minor tissue loss, non-healing ulcer, focal gangrene with diffuse pedal ischemia.

    Class 6: Major tissue loss extending above transmetatarsal level; functional foot no longer salvageable.

    Measured: Baseline, 30 days and 6 months

  9. Change of Rutherford Classification (mITT Population)

    Rutherford Classification; Class 0: Asymptomatic; no hemodynamically significant occlusive disease.

    Class 1: Mild Claudication; there is no limitation with ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking several blocks, climbing stairs). Limiting symptoms may occur with marked exertion (e.g., strenuous, rapid or prolonged exertion at work or recreation).

    Class 2: Moderate Claudication; there is a slight limitation of ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking uphill, or more than two level blocks, or climbing stairs rapidly). Subject is comfortable at rest.

    Class 3: Severe Claudication; there is marked limitation of ordinary physical activities (e.g., walking 1-2 level blocks or climbing one flight of stairs). Subject is comfortable at rest.

    Class 4: Ischemic rest pain. Class 5: Minor tissue loss, non-healing ulcer, focal gangrene with diffuse pedal ischemia.

    Class 6: Major tissue loss extending above transmetatarsal level; functional foot no longer salvageable.

    Measured: Baseline, 30 days and 6 months

  10. Change in Ankle Brachial Index (ABI)

    The Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) is a simple, non-invasive test used to assess peripheral artery disease (PAD). It compares the blood pressure measured at the ankle with the blood pressure measured at the arm (brachial artery).

    Measured: Baseline (within 30 days of the clinical treatment), and Post Procedure (after the clinical trial treatment prior to discharge: post procedure ABI was collected on average 1.1 days post clinical trial treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) in people with Peripheral Artery Disease, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 12 sites in Japan.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Japan. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Oct 2025). 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?

Percentage of Subjects With Acute Device Success (time frame: At the end of the procedure). 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 Oct 2025.
