To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cardio Flow FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System for atherosclerotic plaque removal and vessel compliance modification in de novo native target lesions in the peripheral vasculature of the lower extremities.
The FAST II study is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized single-arm trial designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System in subjects diagnosed with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the lower extremities. The FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System is a minimally invasive, catheter-based system designed for improving luminal diameter and modifying vessel wall compliance in patients with PAD. The FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System is indicated to remove atherosclerotic plaque and modifying vessel wall compliance within peripheral arterial vessels. The therapy is intended for patients who are acceptable candidates for percutaneous transluminal atherectomy. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System for atherosclerotic plaque removal and vessel modification in de novo target lesions in the peripheral vasculature of the lower extremities.

Technical Success
Defined as the ability of the Cardio Flow FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System to achieve a residual diameter stenosis ≤50% without adjunctive therapy.
Time frame: At the time of the index procedure, usually within one hour after starting the procedure
Freedom From Major Adverse Events
Primary safety endpoint is freedom from a composite of new onset major adverse events (MAE) at 30-day follow-up as adjudicated by an Independent Clinical Events Committee. This endpoint is evaluated on a per patient basis.
Time frame: 30 days
Clinical Success
Defined as the ability of the FreedomFlow™ Orbital Circumferential Atherectomy System to achieve a final diameter stenosis \<50% immediately post treatment with or without adjunctive therapy, as assessed by an independent Angiographic Core Laboratory.
Time frame: At index procedure
Procedure Success
Defined as \<50% residual stenosis at target lesion with or without adjunctive therapy, no procedure-related MAE, no device malfunction causing the procedure to be aborted.
Time frame: At index procedure
Ankle Brachia, Index (ABI) Measured at Baseline, 30 Days and 6 Months
ABI measured at baseline, 30 days and 6 months. ABI ranges from 0 to 1, with smaller values indicating more severe disease. Normal ABI is 1.
Time frame: 30 days and 6 months
Rutherford Classification
Change in Rutherford Classification at 30 days and 6 months. Rutherford scale ranges from 0 to 6 with higher values indicating more severe disease. Rutherford classifications are: 0 Asymptomatic; 1 Mild Claudication; 2 Moderate Claudication; 3 Severe Claudication; 4 Ischemic Rest Pain; 5 Minor Tissue Loss; 6 Major Tissue Loss.

Vascular Quality of Life Questionnaire (VascuQoL) Administered at Baseline, 30 Days and 6 Months
Patient reported outcomes (PRO, VascuQoL questionnaire) at baseline, 30 days and 6 months. The VascuQoL questionnaire is a validated PRO for lower limb ischemia patients. The range of scores is 1 (worst) to 7 (best)
Time frame: Baseline, 30 days and 6 months
Target Lesion and Vessel Revascularization
Clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR) at 6 months, target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 30 days and 6 months (as assessed by an independent Angiographic Core Laboratory). Clinically driven target lesion revascularization refers to disease progression that is caused by a recurrence of stenosis at the lesion that was treated; target vessel revascularization refers to disease progression that is caused by a recurrence of stenosis in the same vessel as the treated lesion but at a different site.
Time frame: 30 days and 6 months
Vessel Patency
Primary patency, primary assisted patency and secondary patency at 30 days and 6 months. Patency will be evaluated on a per lesion basis by duplex ultrasound and evaluated by an independent Vascular Ultrasound Core Laboratory. Restenosis is defined as Peak Systolic Velocity Rate (PSVR) of 2.5. Patency is determined using ultrasound to measure velocity. Patency is indicated for PSVR values \< 2.5
Time frame: 30 days and 6 months
