Intended Use

The Supera® Peripheral Stent System is indicated to improve luminal diameter in the treatment of patients with symptomatic de novo or restenotic native lesions or occlusions of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or proximal popliteal artery, with reference vessel diameters of 4.0 to 6.5 mm, and lesion lengths up to 140mm.

Device Story

Supera Peripheral Stent System is a closed-end, braided, self-expanding nitinol stent premounted on a 6Fr or 7Fr over-the-wire delivery system. Used in SFA/proximal popliteal artery interventions to improve luminal diameter. Physician operates delivery system via handle with thumb slide and reciprocating stent driver to deploy stent. Stent provides radial support to treated vessel. Clinical benefit includes improved patency and reduced need for repeat procedures compared to PTA alone. Device is used in clinical/interventional settings; output is visual confirmation of stent placement via angiography. Clinical decision-making relies on pre-dilation and accurate sizing to match reference vessel diameter (RVD).

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS The warnings and precautions can be found in the Supera® Peripheral Stent System labeling (Instructions for Use). ## V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Supera Peripheral Stent System consists of a closed end, braided self-expanding stent made of Nitinol (nickel-titanium alloy) wire material that is premounted on a 6Fr or 7Fr delivery system. The stent does not include radiopaque markers. The over-the-wire (OTW) stent delivery system is compatible with a 0.014" or a 0.018" guide wire and comes in lengths of 80cm and 120cm (6Fr) and 120cm (7Fr). The delivery system includes a reciprocating mechanism (Stent Driver) that incrementally moves the stent distally out of the outer sheath. This motion allows for the distal end of the stent to first come in contact with the targeted vessel, setting the distal reference point, and continues to feed the stent out of the sheath as the target wall is exposed by the proximal movement of the catheter. This stent deployment is achieved by the reciprocation of the Thumb Slide located on the Handle. On the final stroke, the Deployment Lock is toggled and the last deployment stroke is made. {3} ![img-0.jpeg](img-0.jpeg) Figure 1: Supera Stent (8) The stents are labeled based on the outer stent diameter. A stent should initially be chosen such that its labeled diameter matches the reference vessel diameter proximal and distal to the lesion, as shown in Figure 1. Final stent selection should be confirmed after lesion pre-dilation: if possible, the stent diameter should match the prepared lesion diameter 1:1. Due to the mechanical behavior of the woven Supera stent, the stent should not be oversized by more than $1\mathrm{mm}$ relative to the RVD. This ensures optimum deployment of the Supera stent, maximizing radial strength and assisting in accurate stent length deployment. Choosing a labeled diameter to match the reference vessel diameter, then appropriately preparing the vessel to match that stent's outer diameter will result in a stent that is properly sized to the vessel. The Supera stent is provided in multiple lengths and diameters. Table 1 lists the available stent diameters and lengths for the Supera Peripheral Stent System.

PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 18 of 55 {18} # D. Animal Studies The Supera® Peripheral Stent System was subjected to a series of sub-chronic and chronic animal studies. Two (2) in vivo studies were performed to demonstrate performance and safety of the Supera® Peripheral Stent System. Both studies were conducted in accordance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) per 21 CFR §58. Table 4 below provides a summary of the in vivo animal studies performed with the Supera® Peripheral Stent System. Table 4: Summary of Pre-Clinical Animal Studies | Study Objective | Study Design | Relevant Findings | | --- | --- | --- | | GLP Dog Study: To evaluate relative thromboresistance of the material in vivo. | Supera stents were placed in the iliac arteries of six dogs. At the end of the study, each device was evaluated for thrombus formation as well as tissue samples from the implant site. | No thrombus formation or significant tissue damage was noted at or near any of the implant sites after one and three months of implantation. All stents were found to be well adhered to the vessel wall with no signs of migration from the original site. There were no signs of vessel occlusion noted at any of the implant sites. | | GLP Porcine Study: To assess the safety of the Supera stent system at multiple time points in the porcine model and to evaluate the acute performance (deliverability, usability, etc.) by multiple operators. | Fourteen Yucatan pigs were used in the GLP study. Animals were assigned to the 30, 90, and 180 Day time points. The animals underwent a single interventional procedure on Day 0 in which stents were implanted with 6Fr and 7Fr delivery systems (n=10 each) in bilateral iliac arteries (1 stent per vessel). Five animals were euthanized on Days 30 and 90 and four animals at the 180 day time-point and subjected to a comprehensive necropsy and the iliac arteries were collected. Seven stented arteries at each time point were processed for histopathologic evaluation and three stented arteries at the 30 and 90 day time point were used for SEM assessment of endothelialization. | There were no dissections or perforations. All animals survived to their scheduled endpoint and there were no clinical health or necropsy issues at the 30, 90, and 180 day time points. Angiography prior to necropsy showed minimal in-stent neointima with a group average late lumen loss of 1.1mm - 1.2mm and <20% stenosis. Histopathological assessment demonstrated no adverse effect with respect to lumen size, neointimal proliferation, or degree of stenosis at either time point. There was a small progression of neointima and stenosis over time (up to 90 days) but stenosis was on average minimal <16%. There was negligible injury, inflammation, neointimal fibrin, and adventitial fibrosis at all time points. After 30, 90, and 180 days, the stent was interpreted to have good healing characteristics. Endothelialization was near complete by Day 90 and was completely confluent with no cellular gaps. These data are interpreted to reflect a favorable response to implantation. Acute performance was similar for the 6Fr and 7Fr delivery systems with respect to device delivery, deployment, and radiopacity. The stent delivery catheters allowed for good portioning control while deploying the stent. | PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {19} | Study Objective | Study Design | Relevant Findings | | --- | --- | --- | | Non-GLP Porcine Study: To validate the acute safety and operational characteristics (e.g. trackability, ergonomics, ease of use, etc.) of the 7Fr Supera Stent System per Product Specification PS00008. | This was an acute study at a single time-point using 3 pigs with 7 stents implanted, 4x40mm, 5x150mm, 4x80mm, 4x60mm, 5x60mm, 4x120mm, 5x40mm.

SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDY The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the Supera® Peripheral Stent Systems for improving luminal diameter in the treatment of de novo or restenotic lesion(s) up to 140mm in length in the native superficial femoral artery and/or proximal popliteal arteries with reference vessel diameters ranging from 4-6mm, in the US under IDE G070239. Data from this clinical study were the basis for the PMA approval decision. A summary of the clinical study is presented below. PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 20 of 55 {20} PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 21 of 55 # A. Study Design The applicant conducted a study titled “Comparison of the SUpera® PERipheral System to a Performance Goal Derived From Balloon Angioplasty Clinical Trials in the Superficial Femoral Artery” (SUPERB). SUPERB was a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, un-blinded single arm clinical study comparing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and primary stenting with the Supera® Peripheral Stent Systems to performance goals of PTA alone in the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions of the native superficial femoral artery (SFA) or the superficial femoral and proximal popliteal arteries. The safety performance goal was derived from literature and the effectiveness performance goal was based on an aggregate of published trial data as described by VIVA Physicians Inc. (VPI). There were a total of 49 participating sites in the US; 46 of these sites enrolled 325 roll-in and intent-to treat (ITT) subjects, with ITT subjects defined as the subjects to be included in the statistical analyses of study endpoints. Of these 46 sites, 34 enrolled 264 ITT subjects into the study. Eligible subjects either had stenotic, restenotic (non-stented) or occluded lesions. The reference vessel diameter of the treated subjects was to be 4.0 - 6.0 mm and the lesion length from 4-14 cm. Subjects with Rutherford/Becker Clinical Categories of 2-4 were included in the study. Subject follow-up occurred at 30 days, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months, and will continue with annual follow-up for up to 3 years. Patients were treated between July 30, 2009 and May 20, 2011. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through November 1, 2013, and included the 264 ITT patients. There were 46 investigational sites that enrolled subjects. The primary study endpoints were as follows: - The primary safety endpoint for the SUPERB SFA/PPA study was a composite of Major Adverse Events (MAEs) defined as all death, TLR or any amputation of the index limb to 30 days (±7 days). - The primary effectiveness endpoint for the SUPERB SFA/PPA study was primary stent patency rate at 12 months. Primary patency was defined as Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) ratio &lt; 2.0 at the stented target lesion assessed by duplex ultrasound (DUS) with no clinically-driven reintervention within the stented segment. Study success was declared only if both primary endpoints (safety and effectiveness) met their performance goals. For the primary safety endpoint, the null hypothesis was rejected if the lower limit on the one-sided 95% confidence interval calculated using the Wilson Score Method on the 30 day freedom from MAE rate exceeded the performance goal (PG) of 88.0%. For the primary {21} effectiveness endpoint, the null hypothesis was rejected if the lower limit of the one-sided 95% confidence interval calculated using the Wilson Score Method on the 12 month patency rate exceeded the PG of 66%. The SUPERB Study was monitored by independent contract monitors. Independent duplex ultrasound and angiographic core laboratories reviewed and analyzed key study variables. An independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) was used to review study data on an ongoing basis and identify any potential safety trends. Adjudication of major adverse events was conducted by an independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC). 1.

Use of retrospective assessments, prior to signing of informed consent, were used if they were performed as routine standard of care. 2 Brief physical exam at baseline were targeted to assessment of limb ischemia and concurrent medical conditions to assess subject eligibility for study participation. Health status assessment was performed at discharge and subsequent clinic visits to assess for limb ischemia and other changes in medical conditions that were reportable as adverse events. 3 CK at discharge time point was obtained only if subject showed signs or symptoms of cardiac ischemia. CK-MB was required if CK was elevated (≥ 2X the laboratory upper limit of normal). If CK and CK-MB were elevated, then acute myocardial infarction was diagnosed, and subject would be treated according to hospital procedures. 4 30 day ECG performed if subject experienced any ischemic cardiac symptoms since discharge.

Additional angiography was performed at Investigator discretion or to assess events. 6 Duplex ultrasound was completed within 37 days post-procedure. Duplex ultrasound at 24- or 36-month was not required unless indicated to rule out limb ischemia/restenosis in subject with suggestive clinical signs or symptoms. 7 At baseline Clinical Category Scale, during the follow-up both Clinical Category and Clinical Improvement Rutherford-Becker Scales. 8 Performed Toe Brachial Index (TBI) only if unable to reliably assess ABI reading. Tests were performed in resting state. Post-procedure follow up assessments depended upon which test was performed pre-procedure. 9 Plavix® or Ticlid® was recommended for at least one month post procedure; ASA recommended for all subjects indefinitely. If Ticlid® was used, subject should have CBC with differential drawn every two weeks for the duration of therapy. 10 100 non-roll-in subjects only. Performed post-procedure only if baseline ETT was performed. 11 All Adverse Events (inclusive of SAEs and UADEs) were to be collected through 12 months post-procedure. After the 12 month (primary endpoint) clinical visit, only SAE/UADE were required to be reported. Data related to pre-existing adverse events (reported through the 12 month visit) were attempted to be reconciled and resolved. # 3. Clinical Endpoints With regard to success/failure criteria, the SUPERB SFA/PPA study was designed to compare the primary clinical endpoints to pre-established performance goals of 88% for safety and 66% for effectiveness (as defined below). The primary safety endpoint was a composite of all death, Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR), or any amputation of the index limb to 30 (±7) days. Secondary safety endpoints included: - The combined rate of death at 30 (±7) days, target lesion revascularization (TLR), index limb amputation, and an increase in Rutherford-Becker Classification by 2 classes (comparing pre- to post-procedural assessments) at 12 months. - Major adverse vascular event (MAVE) at 30 days, 6 months (180 ± 14 days) and 12 months (360 ± 30 days) defined as stent thrombosis, target limb amputation, clinically apparent distal embolization, defined as causing end-organ damage (e.g. lower extremity ulceration, tissue necrosis, or gangrene), procedure related arterial rupture, acute limb ischemia, or bleeding event requiring transfusion. - Stent integrity assessed by x-ray evaluation at 1, 2, and 3 year follow-up. The primary effectiveness endpoint was the SFA/PPA primary patency rate at 12 months (360 ± 30 days), defined as freedom from restenosis [diameter {26} stenosis &gt;50% with a peak systolic velocity (PSV) ratio ≥ 2.0 as measured by duplex ultrasound] and TLR. Secondary effectiveness endpoints included: - Acute technical (lesion) success, procedural success and device success - Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) and Toe-Brachial Index (TBI) at 1, 6 and 12 months - Target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 6 and 12 months - Limb ischemia by Rutherford-Becker Classification at Baseline, 1, 6, and 12 months. - Number of any type of index limb amputations at 6 and 12 months - Quality of Life as assessed by disease-specific questionnaires at baseline, 6 and 12 months. - Absolute Claudication Distance as measured by the Exercise Tolerance Test (TASCII) assessed in 100 subjects at baseline, 30 days, and 12 months. - SFA patency at 6 months using a PSVR ≥ 2.0, and at 6 and 12 months using a PSVR &gt; 2.4 - Target lesion revascularization (TLR) at 6 and 12 months ## Additional Planned Analyses: A combined rate of death at 30 days, or TLR, index limb amputation, and an increase in Rutherford-Becker Classification by 2 classes (comparing pre- to post-procedural assessments) measured at 24 and 36 months. Target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 24 and 36 months post-procedure. Limb ischemia improvement by Rutherford-Becker (improvement in scale by ≥ 1) at 24 and 36 months. Major Adverse Vascular Event (MAVE) by 6, 12, 24 and 36 months, defined as: - stent thrombosis, target limb amputation, or clinically apparent distal embolization, defined as causing end-organ damage (e.g. lower extremity ulceration, tissue necrosis, or gangrene). - procedure related arterial rupture, acute limb ischemia, or bleeding event requiring transfusion. Number of any type of index limb amputations at 12, 24 and 36 month follow-up. Target lesion revascularization (TLR) at 24 and 36 months post-procedure. ## B. Accountability of PMA Cohort A total of 61 roll-in patients signed the informed consent and were enrolled. After the roll-in phase of the study was completed, a total of 264 patients signed the PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 27 of 55 {27} informed consent and were enrolled in the SUPERB trial. These 264 patients comprised the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. At the time of database lock, of the 264 ITT patients enrolled in PMA study, 89.4% (n = 236) of patients were evaluable (had follow up &gt; 330 days or had an event) for analysis at the 12-month endpoint and the 24-month post-operative visit. Table 7 summarizes the study compliance for all follow-up time points.

N = Intent-To-Treat Population ## C. Study Population Demographics and Baseline Parameters The SUPERB SFA/PPA clinical study included 264 subjects with symptomatic ischemic PAD. The Intent-to-Treat population results indicate the mean age for subjects was 69 years, of which 63.6% (168/264) were male and 43.5% (114/262) had diabetes mellitus, and 66.9% (176/263) had a history of coronary artery PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 28 of 55 {28} disease. The demographics of the study population are typical for an interventional peripheral vascular study performed in the US. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics for all subjects enrolled in the SUPERB study are summarized in Table 8. Table 8: Demographics and Baseline Clinical Characteristics – ITT Population | Patient Characteristics | ITT Population (N=264 Patients) | | --- | --- | | Age^{1} (year) | | | Mean±SD (N) | 68.7±10.0 (264) | | Median | 70.0 | | Range (Min, Max) | (40.0,93.0) | | Sex | | | Male | 63.6% (168/264) | | Risk Factors | | | Hypertension | 93.9% (248/264) | | Dyslipidemia | 86.7% (229/264) | | Diabetes Mellitus | 43.5% (114/262) | | Cigarette Smoking | | | Former | 48.1% (127/264) | | Current | 31.8% (84/264) | | Renal Insufficiency | 9.1% (24/264) | | Medical History | | | Coronary Artery Disease | 66.9% (176/263) | | Previous Peripheral Artery Revascularization or Surgery | 38.0% (100/263) | | Previous Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization | 36.1% (95/263) | | Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery | 27.3% (72/264) | | Myocardial Infarction | 20.3% (52/256) | | Cerebrovascular Accident | 9.8% (26/264) | | Transient Ischemic Attack | 6.1% (16/263) | | Deep Vein Thrombosis | 2.3% (6/264) | | Amputation | 1.1% (3/264) | | Thrombophlebitis | 0.4% (1/264) | | Thrombocytopenia | 0.4% (1/264) | | Clinical Characteristics | | | Rutherford Becker Scale | | | (2) Moderate Claudication | 37.5% (99/264) | | (3) Severe Claudication | 57.2% (151/264) | | (4) Ischemic Rest Pain | 5.3% (14/264) | | Ankle Brachial Index | | | Mean±SD (N) | 0.73±0.18 (257) | | Range (Min, Max) | (0.00,1.71) | PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 29 of 55 {29} Age is calculated by rounding the value of procedure date-birth date. Table 9 presents baseline lesion characteristics (assessed by the angiographic core laboratory except as otherwise noted), including lesion location, length and preprocedure vessel diameter. Results for lesion length are consistent with the differences in methodology, with mean lesion length of $82.3\mathrm{mm}$ reported by the site investigators and $78.1\mathrm{mm}$ reported by the core laboratory. Per site assessment, normal-to-normal lesion was determined by measuring the length of the target lesion from healthy tissue to healthy tissue. In contrast, 20-to-20 lesion length was determined by the core laboratory, measuring between the proximal and distal points at which the lesion exhibited $20\%$ stenosis. The mean percent diameter stenosis was $78.0\%$ and the lesion distribution included $24.6\%$ completely occluded lesions and $44.7\%$ severely calcified lesions.

Safety and Effectiveness Results ### 1. Safety Endpoints The primary analysis of safety was based on the 264 ITT subjects. The key safety outcomes for this study are presented in Tables 11 to 13 below. Adverse effects are reported in Table 12. The primary safety endpoint (the composite rate of freedom from all death, target lesion revascularization or any amputation of the index limb to 30 days (±7 days) following stent implantation) was compared to a pre-determined PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {31} safety goal of 88%. Of the enrolled ITT subjects with the 30-day (±7 days) evaluable data (n=260), 99.2% (258/260) met the primary safety endpoint (one-sided lower 95% Wilson Score CL of 97.7%) demonstrating statistical significance (p&lt;0.001) when comparing this rate to the 88% performance goal. | Table 11: Summary of Primary Safety Endpoints (30 ± 7 days) N=264 Lesions = 265 | | | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Primary Safety Endpoint | % (num/denom) | Performance Goal | Lower Bound of 95% one-sided Wilson CL | Lower Bound of 97.5% one-sided Wilson CL | Objective Met | | Freedom from Death, Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) or any amputation of the index limb | 99.2% (258/260) | 88.0% | 97.7%* | 97.2% | Yes | | Freedom from All Cause Death | 99.6% (259/260) | | | | | | Freedom from TLR | 99.6% (259/260) | | | | | | Freedom from Amputation of the index limb | 100.0% (260/260) | | | | | Note: Subjects are included in the clinical endpoint evaluation if: 1. They return for their corresponding visit within the window OR 2. They came back for a later scheduled or un-scheduled visit (i.e. a visit form is filled and the sponsor has documented information about their clinical status within the endpoint time frame) OR 3. The last contact date predated the endpoint time frame (they withdrew, were LTFU, died or exited the study for other reasons) BUT had an endpoint event within the endpoint time frame. Specifically, events defined for the period of 30 days post-procedure follow up are reported for subjects with at least 37 days of follow-up or had 30-day visit within window (30±7 days) or with event to 37 days *The p-value comparing the rate to the performance goal is &lt; 0.001 using a one-sided binomial exact method. Additional primary safety analyses were performed, to handle the issue of missing data. In the worst-case scenario, where four subjects with missing primary safety endpoints were considered failures, the rate of freedom from death, TLR or any amputation of the index limb was 97.7% with a one-sided 95% Wilson Score CL of 95.7%, which was still higher than the performance goal of 88%. ## Adverse Effects That Occurred in the PMA Clinical Study There have been twenty two (22) subject deaths reported for the ITT population in this study. Twenty-one (21) subject deaths have been adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) and are unrelated to the Supera® PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 32 of 55 {32} stent. One subject died on day 1183 which is outside of the 36 month follow-up window.

The subject had a revascularization with directional atherectomy for in-stent restenosis at 9 month post index procedure. At 12 months follow up there was no evidence of a stent fracture. Additional in-stent restenoses were treated with directional atherectomy between the 12 and 24 month evaluations. At 24 months, a type III fracture was noted by x-ray in the region of the earlier restenoses. There was no report of a major adverse event at 24 months.

Effectiveness Endpoints The analysis of primary effectiveness was based on 228 evaluable subjects at the 12-month time point, as shown in Table 15 below. The primary effectiveness endpoint (primary patency of the stent at 12 months $(360 \pm 30$ days)) was defined as freedom from restenosis [diameter stenosis $&gt;50\%$ with a peak systolic velocity (PSV) ratio $\geq 2.0$ as measured by duplex ultrasound] and TLR. Of the evaluable subjects, $78.9\%$ (180/228) met the primary effectiveness endpoint (one-sided lower $95\%$ Wilson Score CL of $74.2\%$ ), demonstrating statistical significance $(p &lt; 0.001)$ when comparing this patency rate to the $66\%$ performance goal. In further consideration of the overall device performance as well as to allow the application of a more modern study design, a secondary analysis of the data was also performed. This was not a pre-specified endpoint and was used for information purposes only. The secondary analysis applied a modified VIVA effectiveness criterion which uses a higher PSV ratio. Using these modified criteria of a PSV ratio $&lt; 2.4$ , the mean primary patency rate as a measure of primary effectiveness at 12 months was $80.3\%$ with a one-sided lower $95\%$ Wilson Score CL of $75.6\%$ and one-sided lower $97.5\%$ Wilson Score CL of $74.6\%$ . Additionally, $86.7\%$ (196/226) of the subjects had no restenosis (defined as $\geq 50\%$ diameter stenosis) at 12 months and $88.9\%$ (209/235) of the subjects had freedom from Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) to 12 months. At 24 months $(720 \pm 30$ days), $84.3\%$ (177/213) of the subjects had freedom from TLR.

They return for their corresponding visit within the window OR 2. They came back for a later scheduled or un-scheduled visit (i.e. a visit form is filled and the sponsor has documented information about their clinical status within the endpoint time frame) OR 3. The last contact date predated the endpoint time frame (they withdrew, were LTFU, died or exited the study for other reasons) BUT had an endpoint event within the endpoint time frame. Specifically, events defined for the period of 12 months post-procedure follow up are reported for subjects with at least 390 days of follow-up or had 12-month visit within window (360±30 days) or with event to 390 days. Subjects are included in the denominator for the image (restenosis) endpoint time frame if: 1. They returned for corresponding visit within the pre-specified visit window, e.g. 360 ± 30 days for the 12 Month Restenosis endpoint. 2. They came back for an earlier or later scheduled or unscheduled visit that is after the corresponding visit window and the subject's vessel is patent and an earlier imaging visit shows the vessel is patent OR the subject's vessel is not patent and an earlier imaging visit shows the vessel is not patent Patency is PSVR &lt; 2.0; Restenosis is PSVR ≥ 2.0 *The p-value comparing the rate to the performance goal is &lt; 0.001 using a one-sided binomial exact test. **No stenosis ≥50% diameter stenosis. ***One subject had a TVR, during which a balloon was inflated in the proximal segmental study stent. At that time the study stent was patent. Thus the TLR was non-clinically driven. This subject was censored from the primary patency analysis. 1234 subjects eligible – 2 missed visit – 7 other missing data + 1 patent at subsequent DUS + 2 revascularized prior to assessment. 234 subjects eligible – 2 missed visit – 7 other missing data + 1 patent at subsequent DUS. 3235 subjects eligible for freedom from TLR (includes the patient mentioned above with the non-clinically driven TVR) A missing data analysis was performed on the primary effectiveness endpoint. In the most conservative case where the ITT subjects with missing primary effectiveness endpoints were considered not patent (the worst-case scenario), the patency rate at 12 months is 68.2% (180/264) with the one-sided 95% lower confidence limit of 63.3%. Based on the tipping point analysis, eight out of 36 patients (22.2%) with missing primary effectiveness endpoint data would need to be patent to meet the objective. This outcome is likely considering that the observed rate was 78.9%. In addition, a multiple imputation was performed where missing 12-month patency data was imputed to show the robustness of the observed data. The results between the available cases and the imputed cases were similar (78.9% vs. 79.5% respectively); and the one-sided lower 95% confidence limit for both analyses were greater than the performance goal of 66%.

They came back for an earlier or later scheduled or unscheduled visit that is after the corresponding visit window and the subject's vessel is patent and an earlier imaging visit shows the vessel is subject OR the subject's vessel is not patent and an earlier imaging visit shows the vessel is not patent For explanation of denominator, see footnote in Table 15. **Five data sets were imputed using multiple imputation approach by SAS PROC MI. The covariates used for imputation model were age, sex, diabetes, target lesion length and reference vessel diameter. Means were taken for subjects with multiple lesions. Missing information on these covariates was imputed by mean and median for continuous and categorical variables, respectively. A $95\%$ one-sided CI by Wilson method was obtained by using SAS PROC MIANALYZE on the results of the five significance tests.

For explanations of patency and restenosis denominators, see footnotes in Table 15. PMA P120020: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {37} Freedom from loss of primary patency at 12 months (360 ± 30 days) (±SE) was achieved in 86.3% (±2.3) of the ITT population (Figure 4 and Table 18). In a secondary analysis of the freedom from loss of patency, in which diameter stenosis &gt;50% was defined with a threshold PSV ratio of &gt;2.4, there was no change in the estimate of freedom from loss of patency in the subjects with DUS performed through 390 days. The primary stent patency rate using survival analysis is presented in Figure 5. Freedom from loss of primary patency at 12 months was 80.3%.
