Summary

The Zilver® PTX™ Drug Eluting Vascular Stent is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic vascular disease of the above-the-knee femoropopliteal artery (ranging from 4 mm to 9 mm in reference vessel diameter) for lesions up to 7 cm long. The clinical trial is stratified by lesion length. The trial will be conducted in 2 phases, with Phase 1 enrolling patients with lesions less than 7 cm long. Phase 2 of the trial will include longer lesions (up to 14 cm long) and will be initiated upon approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patient has signed and dated the informed consent.
  • Patient has up to 2 documented stenotic or occluded atherosclerotic lesions (up ro 14 cm long) of the above-the-knee femoropopliteal artery, up to one in each limb, that meet all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria.
  • Patient has a de novo or restenotic lesion(s) with >50% stenosis documented angiographically and no prior stent in the target lesion.
  • Patient has symptoms of peripheral arterial disease classified as Rutherford Category 2 or greater.
  • Patient has a resting Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) 1.2) must have a Toe Brachial Index (TBI) <0.8.
  • Patient agrees to return for a clinical status assessment and duplex ultrasound at 6 months, 12 months, and at 2, 3, 4, and 5 years.
  • Patient agrees to return for x-rays at 6 and 12 months.
  • Patient agrees to return for angiography at 12 months.
  • Patient agrees to be contacted by telephone at 1, 3, 9, and 18 months to assess clinical status.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patient is pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • Patient is simultaneously participating in another investigational drug or device study.
  • Patient has significant stenosis or occlusion of inflow tract not successfully treated before this procedure.
  • Patient has any planned surgical or interventional procedure within 30 days after the study procedure.
  • Patient has had previous stenting of target vessel.
  • Patient in whom antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant therapy is contraindicated.
  • Patient has known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, antiplatelet medication, contrast dye, paclitaxel or nitinol and, in the opinion of the investigator, cannot be adequately premedicated.
  • Patient lacks at least one patent vessel of runoff with <50% stenosis throughout its course.
  • Patient has untreated angiographically-evident thrombus in the target lesion.
