Catheter-based excision of moderate to severely calcified plaque located in the SFA and/or popliteal artery.
Successful Revascularization
Less than or equal to 50% residual diameter stenosis following plaque excision remaining at the target lesion(s), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory
Time frame: at the end of the procedure
Major Adverse Event Free Rate 30 Days
MAE was defined as a serious adverse event that results in death, acute myocardial infarction, dissection (grade C or greater), clinical perforation, pseudo-aneurysm, thrombosis, distal embolism (clinically relevant), amputation, or clinically-driven target vessel revascularization (TVR), through 30 days post-procedure, as adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC).
Time frame: 30 Days
Technical Procedural Success
Technical Procedural Success was defined as meeting all of the following requirements: * Less than or equal to 50% residual diameter stenosis at the target lesion(s), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory * No procedure-related Major Adverse Events (MAE), as adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) * No device malfunction causing the procedure to be aborted * Successful delivery and placement of the SpiderFX™ embolic protection device
Time frame: at the end of the procedure
Residual Diameter Stenosis
This endpoint was met when there was less than 30% residual diameter stenosis following treatment with SilverHawk™ /TurboHawk™ plaque excision systems and any adjunctive therapy (if required), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory.
Time frame: at the end of the procedure
Presence of Debris in Deployed SpiderFx™ Embolic Protection Device
Presence of debris in deployed SpiderFx™ embolic protection device

Preservation of Run-off Distal to the Filter
Preservation of run-off distal to SpiderFX™ distal embolic protection device was determined by angiography of run-off vessels at the end of the procedure, as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory.
