### Detailed Description

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and long-term efficacy of a disposable neurovascular intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) catheter and intravascular lithotripsy treatment device for pre-treatment of calcified lesions in the extracranial segment of the carotid artery. The study is designed as a prospective, multicenter, single-arm trial (extended follow-up period).

#### Study Population:

All patients participating in this extended follow-up period are sourced from the registered clinical trial.(The registered clinical trial:Participants aged 18-80 years with symptomatic (≥50%) or asymptomatic (≥70%) calcified carotid artery stenosis confirmed by CT angiography (CTA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are eligible. Patients who have failed conventional balloon dilation and are planned for carotid artery stenting (CAS) will be included.)

#### Follow-Up: Participants will be followed up at 3 months ±15 days and 6 months ±30 days postoperatively. Assessments will include clinical evaluations, imaging studies (CT angiography or carotid ultrasound), and recording of adverse events.

  • Endpoints:
  • Primary Endpoint: Surgical success rate defined as residual stenosis <30% after stenting.
  • Secondary Endpoints: Target lesion re-narrowing rate, target lesion revascularization rate, MAE (major adverse events) rate, ipsilateral stroke rate, and MACCE (major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events) rate at 3 and 6 months postoperatively.
  • Ethical Considerations:

Informed consent will be obtained from all participants or their legal guardians. The study will be conducted in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration and local regulatory requirements.

What is being measured

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

  1. Target lesion re-narrowing rate

    Proportion of patients with ≥50% diameter stenosis at the target lesion, assessed by imaging at 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Target lesion revascularization rate

    Incidence of repeat revascularization procedures at the treated lesion, evaluated at 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively

  2. MAE (Major Adverse Events) rate

    Rate of major adverse events (death, myocardial infarction, stroke) within 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively

  3. Ipsilateral stroke rate

    Incidence of stroke on the treated side, confirmed by clinical and imaging studies at 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively

  4. MACCE (Major Adverse Cardio-Cerebrovascular Events) rate

    Composite rate of death, stroke, myocardial infarction, and revascularization at 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carotid Artery Stenosis, run by Shanghai Bluesail Boyuan Medical Technology Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xiaochuan Huo (010-64412431, huoxiaochuan@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Target lesion re-narrowing rate (time frame: at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively). 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 16 May 2025.
