To assess the safety and performance of the VaSecure drug-coated PTA balloon catheter in the treatment of patients with Chronic Limb Threatening Ischemia (CLTI) of the lower limb below the knee (BTK)
The VaSecure Drug Coated PTA Balloon Catheter is indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), after predilatation, of de novo lesions in the peripheral vasculature of the lower limb with reference vessel diameters of 2-4 mm. The study will include patients with lesions located in the infrapopliteal arteries diagnosed with CLTI of Rutherford categories 3-5. A maximum number of 46 patients will be enrolled in this clinical investigation in 7 sites in Europe and 2 in Singapore.

NOT_YET_RECRUITINGFreedom from a composite endpoint of Major adverse limb event (MALE) and procedure-related mortality.
Major adverse limb event is defined as the composite of either major amputation or major re-intervention through 30 days of the index procedure.
Time frame: 30 days
Procedure success rate
Composite of technical success defined as successful vascular access and completion of the endovascular procedure as well as immediate morphological success with \<30% residual reduction in diameter as assessed by QVA and Device success defined as exact deployment of the device according to the Instructions For Use (IFU) as documented by suitable imaging means
Time frame: Index procedure or 1 day post index procedure
Incidence of all Adverse Events (AEs)
All AEs will be characterized by severity, relatedness, outcome and treatment
Time frame: 30 days, and 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Freedom from major target limb amputation
Rates of amputation of the lower limb above 1 cm from the ankle mortice/joint upwards
Time frame: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (cd-TLR) and target vessel revascularization (TVR)
Clinically-driven TLR is defined by core lab confirmation of restenosis ≥70% in the target lesion with wound persistence, new wounds or re-occurence of ischemic rest pain
Time frame: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Late Lumen Loss (LLL) of the target lesion
As measured by QVA
Time frame: 6 months

RECRUITINGAngiographic Restenosis
Defined as ≥70% diameter stenosis on 2-view angiography by visual estimate
Time frame: 6 months
Angiographic Restenotic Burden
Defined as the percentage of length of stenosis/occlusion ≥70% on 2-view angiography by visual estimate in mm, divided by the total length of the lesion in mm
Time frame: 6 months
Freedom from occlusion (FFO) without cd-TLR on Duplex ultrasound
Defined as presence of flow on colour doppler of the target lesion
Time frame: 3, 6 and 9 months
Haemodynamic microvascular performance
As measured by transcutaneous oxygen (TcpO2)
Time frame: Baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months
Haemodynamic microvascular performance
As measured by Ankle-Brachial-Index (ABI).
Time frame: Baseline, 6 and 12 months
Wound healing rate
Defined as healed or not, if not, improving, stagnant or worsening
Time frame: 30 days, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months.
Rutherford status
Change in Rutherford classification as assessed by the investigator
Time frame: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Clinical Improvement (combined endpoint) in amputation free, cd-TLR free, surviving patients
Specified as an improvement shift in the Rutherford classification of one class.
Time frame: 3, 6, 9 and 12 months
Limb salvage
Defined as preservation of a functional foot without the need for a leg prosthesis
Time frame: 6 and 12 months
Amputation-free survival
Defined as composite endpoint of mortality and amputation
Time frame: 6 and 12 months
