The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate acute and long term clinical results of orbital atherectomy (OA) with adjunctive drug coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty versus DCB angioplasty alone for treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) in below the knee (BTK) lesions.

Device Success
Device success was defined as the ability to achieve successful delivery and deployment of the drug-coated balloon (DCB) to the target lesion as described per Instructions for Use (IFU) within 3 minutes of insertion without removal and use of an additional device. The percentage of success was based on the number of DCB devices used.
Time frame: During the procedure
Patency of the Target Lesion at 6 Months and 12 Months Post-Procedure
Patency of the target lesion as reported by the Duplex Ultrasound (DUS) Core Laboratory. Vessel patency at 6 months and 12 months by Duplex Ultrasound (DUS), where patency is defined as \<50% restenosis within the treated lesion area. Patency was assessed by the DUS Core Laboratory.
Time frame: 6 months and 12 months post-procedure
Freedom From Clinically-Driven Target Lesion Revascularization (CD-TLR) at 6 Months and 12 Months Post-Procedure
A Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to determine the percent probability that a study participant was free from CD-TLR through 6 months and 12 months.
Time frame: 6 months and 12 months post-procedure
Freedom From Unplanned, Unavoidable Major Amputation of the Index Limb at 6 Months and 12 Months Post-Procedure
A Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to determine the percent probability that the study participant was free from an unplanned, unavoidable major amputation of the index limb through 6 months and 12 months.
Time frame: 6 months and 12 months post-procedure
Freedom From Major Adverse Events (MAEs) at 6 Months and 12 Months Post-Procedure
A Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to determine the percent probability that the study participant was free from a major adverse event (MAE) through 6 months and 12 months. Major adverse events were defined as: clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR); unplanned, unavoidable major amputation of the index limb; and death within 30 days of the index procedure.

Change in Rutherford Category at 6 Months and 12 Months Post-Procedure
Rutherford Classification (RC) is a commonly used clinical grading system for describing peripheral arterial disease (PAD) on a scale of 0 to 6. RC 6 is the most severe form of PAD. There are seven Rutherford categories used to grade the severity of peripheral artery disease; 0: asymptomatic, 1: mild claudication, 2: moderate claudication, 3: severe claudication, 4: ischemic rest pain, 5: minor tissue loss, 6: major tissue loss. The change in Rutherford category is presented as the distribution at baseline compared to that at 6- and 12-months post-procedure.
Time frame: Baseline, 6 months and 12 months post-procedure
