Indications for Use

The LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon PTA Catheter is indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), after pre-dilatation, for the treatment of stenotic lesions in dysfunctional native arteriovenous dialysis fistulae that are 4mm to 12mm in diameter and up to 80mm in length.

Device Story

The LUTONIX® 035 DCB is an over-the-wire percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) catheter featuring a paclitaxel-based drug coating (2μg/mm²) on the balloon surface. It includes the GEOALIGN® marking system for visual positioning. Used in clinical settings by physicians, the device functions primarily through mechanical vessel dilation, with the paclitaxel coating providing an ancillary anti-proliferative effect to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis in dysfunctional native arteriovenous fistulae. The device is delivered over a 0.035" guidewire. By reducing restenosis, the device aims to maintain fistula patency, potentially reducing the frequency of repeat re-interventions required for hemodialysis access maintenance. The healthcare provider uses fluoroscopic imaging to guide placement and monitor the procedure.

Clinical Evidence

Pivotal prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial (IDE #G150067) of 285 patients (141 DCB, 144 control). Primary safety endpoint (freedom from serious adverse events involving AV access circuit through 30 days) met (94.9% DCB vs 95.8% control, p=0.0019). Primary effectiveness endpoint (Target Lesion Primary Patency at 6 months) was 71.4% for DCB vs 63.0% for control (p=0.0562, superiority not met). Clinical benefit demonstrated by reduced number of re-interventions at 6, 9, and 12 months.

Technological Characteristics

Over-the-wire PTA catheter; balloon coated with paclitaxel (API), polysorbate, and sorbitol (excipients). Balloon diameters 4-12mm, lengths 20-100mm. Compatible with 0.035" guidewire.

The paclitaxel coating is distributed evenly across the working length of the balloon at a surface concentration of $2\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mm}^2$ . The total nominal dosage of paclitaxel per balloon size for each model is provided in Table 2. Table 2. Balloon Size Matrix and Total Nominal Dosage - Paclitaxel (mg) | Balloon Diameter (mm) | Total Dosage (mg) per Respective Balloon Length (mm) | | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | 20 | 40 | 60 | 80 | 100 | | 4.0 | | 1.0 | 1.5 | 2.0 | 2.5 | | 5.0 | | 1.3 | 1.9 | 2.5 | 3.1 | | 6.0 | | 1.5 | 2.3 | 3.0 | 3.8 | | 7.0 | | 1.8 | 2.6 | | | | 8.0 | 1.0 | 2.0 | 3.0 | | | | 9.0 | 1.1 | 2.3 | 3.4 | | | | 10.0 | 1.3 | 2.5 | 3.8 | | | | 12.0 | 1.5 | 3.0 | | | | Paclitaxel is a cytotoxic anticancer drug used for oncological indications and manufactured using a semi-synthetic process (see Table 3). The excipients polysorbate and sorbitol utilized in the Lutonix drug coating are as described in the USP National Formulary. The key functional characteristic of the excipients polysorbate and sorbitol in the formulation is to allow for adequate release of the paclitaxel drug substance to the tissue of the vascular wall during the balloon inflation.

The primary effect attributed to the device forms the basis for primary regulation by the FDA Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) with consultation from the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER). The mechanism by which neointimal growth is inhibited by the addition of the drug coating has not been established. In general, paclitaxel is a lipophilic, anti-mitotic agent that prevents microtubule destruction, which has been reported in prior studies to prevent migration/proliferation of smooth muscle cells, inflammatory cells, and fibroblasts, PMA P170003: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data and by preventing secretion of extracellular matrix proteins. Several studies in animal models have also shown that paclitaxel applied locally reduces restenosis by inhibiting smooth muscle cell proliferation and neointimal hyperplasia. $^{1,2}$ # VI. ALTERNATIVE PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES There are other alternatives for the treatment of native dysfunctional arteriovenous fistula (AVF), including other minimally invasive treatment (plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA), endovascular stent graft) or surgical revision. Each alternative has its own advantages and disadvantages. A patient should fully discuss these alternatives with his/her physician to select the method that best meets expectations and lifestyle. # VII.

In addition, chemical characterization testing was conducted on the LUTONIX® balloon catheter with drug coating to support the overall biocompatibility of the drug-coated balloon. The balloon with drug coating was categorized as an implant device with permanent blood contact (&gt;30 days), and the Lutonix balloon catheter without the drug coating was categorized as an externally communicating device with limited contact duration (&lt; 24 hours) with circulating blood. Tests were conducted on ethylene oxide sterilized products. All biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with: - Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Certain Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheters (September 8, 2010) - Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff: Non-Clinical Tests and Recommended Labeling for Intravascular Stents and Associated Delivery systems Document (April 18, 2010) - Draft Guidance for Industry: Coronary Drug-Eluting Stents- Nonclinical and Clinical Studies Companion Document (March 2008) - Draft Guidance for Industry: Coronary Drug-Eluting Stents- Nonclinical and Clinical Studies (March 2008) - Good Laboratory Practices Regulations (21 CFR § 58) - ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices: Evaluation and testing within a risk management framework (2009) A summary of the biocompatibility data provided in P130024 that was leveraged to support this PMA is shown in Table 6 below.

The following traditional biocompatibility studies were not conducted on the Lutonix DCB: *in vivo* thrombogenicity, sub-chronic toxicity, chronic toxicity, and muscle implantation. The potential for thrombogenicity, sub-chronic toxicity, chronic toxicity, and implantation were evaluated as part of other *in vivo* studies conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the product in a vascular location, as described in Section B, below. These additional animal studies PMA P170003: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 9 of 34 demonstrated a lack of significant thrombus formation, inflammation, and toxicity when the product was used in a clinically-relevant vascular location. The omission of genotoxicity and carcinogenicity testing were supported by information regarding the starting materials and processing of the finished drug-coated balloon in conjunction with chemical characterization data and toxicity information from the literature. The results confirm the LUTONIX® 035 DCB catheter is biocompatible for its intended use. # B. Animal Studies Detailed histopathology information is not attainable through human clinical trials so a series of animal studies were conducted to evaluate the safety of the LUTONIX® 035 DCB and to supplement the animal studies previously performed with the LUTONIX® 035 DCB in femoral arteries provided in P130024 to support the SFA indication. Results from these previous studies demonstrated minimal endothelial loss, fibrin deposition, and inflammation with healing of the treated arteries being evident at 180 days. Additional Safety, Safety Margin, Safety Overlap, and Pharmacokinetics studies were conducted with the LUTONIX® 035 DCB in swine models in veins or AV anastomoses in order to demonstrate safety in the venous vasculature. These studies were conducted in accordance with FDA 21 CFR Part 58 GLP Regulations. The results of the animal studies are summarized in Table 7. Table 7.

Also, the pharmacokinetics of drug delivery and elimination are similar in the venous system as compared to the arterial system that has been previously evaluated. The elimination rate in tissue is also comparable between vein and artery. A 3X safety margin has also been established with respect to the systemic dose of paclitaxel, where an average systemic exposure of $27\mathrm{mg}$ resulted in no significant findings in downstream organs (lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart). # C.

Stability testing includes assay, related substances, dissolution, and in-vitro particulate matter. Functional testing was performed on the aged LUTONIX® 035 DCB and compared to baseline to confirm established acceptance criteria are met through the shelf-life. Packaging tests were performed on packaging subjected to the worst case shipping simulation and then aged to ensure that the packaging would remain acceptable for the shelf life of the LUTONIX® 035 DCB. Data generated from stability testing currently supports a 36 month shelf life for the 4-7mm sizes and 24 months for the 8-12mm sizes of the product. The expiration date/shelf life of the finished product will be evaluated and extended as additional stability data becomes available. ## X. SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDIES The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of percutaneous balloon angioplasty, after predilation, of dysfunctional dialysis access fistulae with the LUTONIX® 035 DCB in the USA under IDE # G150067. Data from this pivotal IDE study were the basis for the PMA approval decision. A summary of the clinical study is presented below. ### A. Study Design Patients were treated between June 30, 2015 and March 30, 2016. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through April 28, 2017 and included 285 patients. There were 23 US investigational sites. The LUTONIX® AV trial was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon PTA Catheter compared to a standard PTA Catheter in treating subjects presenting with clinical and hemodynamic abnormalities in native arteriovenous (AV) fistulae located in the upper extremity. The LUTONIX® AV trial recruited patients with de-novo or restenotic lesions in the arteriovenous fistulae. After baseline angiogram and protocol-defined pre-dilation, subjects who were likely to have successful revascularization using PTA balloon were randomized 1:1 to treatment with either the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon PTA Catheter (Test Arm) or standard PTA catheter (Control Arm). Subjects who did not meet the protocol-defined criteria after pre-dilation were considered screen failures, treated per standard practice; no further follow up was required per the protocol. Overview of the study flowchart is provided in the Figure 3 and the overview of the LUTONIX® AV trial study design is provided in Table 10 below. ![img-2.jpeg](img-2.jpeg) Figure 3: Study Flow Chart Table 10.

Clinical Endpoints With regard to safety, the primary safety endpoint is freedom from any serious adverse events directly involving AV access circuit through 30 days. The study aimed to demonstrate non-inferiority of the Lutonix DCB to Standard PTA (10% non-inferiority margin) for the safety endpoint. Secondary endpoints for safety included the rate of device and procedure related adverse events assessed at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months. With regard to effectiveness, the primary effectiveness endpoint was defined as Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) through 6 months. Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) ends with the next clinically driven re-intervention of the target lesion or access thrombosis. The study aimed to demonstrate superiority of the Lutonix DCB to Standard PTA for the effectiveness endpoint. Secondary endpoints for effectiveness included: - Device, Procedural, and Clinical Success - Access Circuit Primary Patency (ACPP) evaluated at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months - TLPP evaluated at 3, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months - TLPP evaluated at 6 months for subjects in whom a fiber pre-dilation balloon was used before the Lutonix DCB as compared to those in whom a non-fiber pre-dilation balloon - Abandonment of permanent access in the index extremity at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months - Number of re-interventions required to maintain target lesion patency at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months - Number of re-interventions required to maintain access circuit patency at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months With regard to success/failure criteria, both the primary safety and effectiveness endpoints had to be met in order for the study to be considered successful. To assess the long term device safety and effectiveness of the Lutonix DCB for treatment of AVF, primary safety and effectiveness were reviewed beyond the pre-specified 30-day (primary safety) and 6-month (primary effectiveness) endpoint. Confidence intervals at time points beyond the pre-specified 30 days (primary safety) and 6 months (primary effectiveness) should be interpreted with caution because the analyses were not pre-specified and were not adjusted for multiplicity, and there may be various sources of confounding effects which cannot be separated from the treatment effect.

Accountability of PMA Cohort There were a total of 285 subjects enrolled in the Lutonix AV trial across 23 investigational centers, all in the U.S. After successful predilatation, subjects were randomized 1:1 to Lutonix DCB (n=141) and Standard PTA (n=144). Subject disposition and follow-up compliance of the enrolled subjects are at the time of database lock on April 28, 2017. Overall, 90.5% of study subjects completed a 6-month evaluation (258/285). Subject disposition by visit is listed in Table 12 and the evaluable patients at the primary endpoint analyses are listed in Table 13. All 12-month follow-up phone calls had been performed as of April 28, 2017 with 85% of the subjects having completed a 12-month follow-up visit. Eighteen-month follow-up phone calls are ongoing.

Study Population Demographics and Baseline Parameters The demographics of the study population are typical for an arteriovenous fistulae study performed in the U.S. and the baseline patient characteristics were similar between the LUTONIX® 035 DCB and PTA control treatment groups. Demographics (Table 14), medical history (Table 15), and clinical characteristics (Table 16) are similar for the two (2) treatment groups. There were similar frequencies of subjects with diabetes (58.2% vs. 65.3%), cardiovascular disease (58.9% vs. 66.7%) and prior stroke (12.8% vs. 9.0%) in both groups. Overall, comorbidities at baseline are well-matched and representative of the patient population. Similarly, baseline angiographic data (Table 17) indicate that the LUTONIX® 035 DCB and control PTA subjects were well-balanced with respect to lesions treated, lesion length, diameter of stenosis, lesion class, classification, occlusion, location, and other lesion-specific measures. A summary of the study devices can be found in Table 18. Table 14.

Safety and Effectiveness Results Results for the primary safety and effectiveness endpoints of the Lutonix AV trial are described and summarized below. The Modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) population, which consists of enrolled, randomized, and treated subjects, was pre-specified as the primary analysis population. In the mITT population among completers, 94.9% of the patients in the Lutonix DCB group were free from the primary safety event, compared to 95.8% of the Standard PTA group. The lower bound of the 95% confidence interval of the rate difference was greater than -10% (10% non-inferiority margin); therefore, the objective of the primary safety endpoint was met. For the primary effectiveness endpoint, TLPP at Day 180 was 71.4% for the Lutonix DCB group compared to 63.0% for the Standard PTA group. The study did not meet the primary effectiveness endpoint for superiority (p=0.0562). ## 1. Safety Results The primary safety endpoint is freedom from serious adverse events directly involving the AV access circuit through 30 days. Data from a total of 281 subjects were available for analysis of the primary safety endpoint (Table 8.4.1-1). The primary safety endpoint for non-inferiority for the Lutonix DCB vs. Standard PTA was met. The proportion of subjects that did not have a serious adverse event (SAE) involving the access circuit through Day 30 was 94.9% in the Lutonix DCB arm, and 95.8% in the Standard PTA arm (p = 0.004). See Table 19 below. PMA P170003: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Table 19.

Survival analysis of the primary safety endpoint was also performed through 12 months. Freedom from primary safety events by Kaplan Meier estimates for 12 months was $39.5\%$ for Lutonix DCB and $31.0\%$ for the Control cohort. The survival curve for the primary safety endpoint is shown below in Figure 4 and Table 20. ![img-3.jpeg](img-3.jpeg) Figure 4. Kaplan-Meier Analysis of Primary Safety through 12 Months Table 20.

Of the 773 adverse events reported by the sites as serious, 397 events were evaluated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) for adjudication. Over two thirds of DCB and PTA subjects experienced at least one SAE (66.7% in the DCB arm, 72.2% in the PTA arm). Overall, there was no evidence that treatment with the LUTONIX® 035 DCB led to increased risk of any SAE. Table 21.

Effectiveness Results The primary effectiveness endpoint is Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) by Kaplan Meier survival analysis was evaluated at Day 180. TLPP ends with the next clinically driven reintervention of the target lesion or access thrombosis. A total of 285 subjects had data available for analysis. TLPP at Day 180 was $71.4\%$ for the DCB arm and $63.0\%$ for the Control (PTA) arm. This result for the DCB arm was numerically higher than the PTA arm but did not meet the primary effectiveness endpoint for superiority $(p = 0.0562$ ; single sided, $p &lt; 0.025$ criteria). See Figure 5 and Table 23, for Kaplan Meier survival curve and associated data. ![img-4.jpeg](img-4.jpeg) Figure 5. Kaplan-Meier Analysis of TLPP Through 12 Months Table 23.

Secondary Endpoint: Number of re-interventions required to maintain target lesion patency: The number of re-interventions that had been performed at the 12-month time point for the PTA control subjects was 115, compared to 138 interventions reported in DCB subjects. On average, the number of interventions required to maintain primary patency of the target lesion was lower in the DCB arm compared to control at all time points: 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months, see Table 25.

Subgroup Analyses The following preoperative characteristics were evaluated for potential association with outcomes: Gender: In the subgroup analysis by gender, clinical benefit of the Lutonix DCB at Day 180 was observed in both the males (TLPP: 76.0% DCB vs. 67.5% PTA) and females (TLPP: 62.7% DCB vs. 56.1% PTA). In addition, primary safety events at Day 30 were similar in both males (95.2% DCB vs. 96.5% PTA) and females (94.3% DCB vs. 94.9% PTA). 4. Pediatric Extrapolation In this premarket application, existing clinical data was not leveraged to support approval of a pediatric patient population. E. Financial Disclosure The Financial Disclosure by Clinical Investigators regulation (21 CFR 54) requires applicants who submit a marketing application to include certain information concerning the compensation to, and financial interests and arrangement of, any clinical investigator conducting clinical studies covered by the regulation. The pivotal clinical study included 74 investigators of which none were full-time or part-time employees of the sponsor and two (2) had disclosable financial interests/arrangements as defined in 21 CFR 54.2(a), (b), (c) and (f) and described below: - Compensation to the investigator for conducting the study where the value could be influenced by the outcome of the study: 0 - Significant payment of other sorts: 2 - Proprietary interest in the product tested held by the investigator: 0 - Significant equity interest held by investigator in sponsor of covered study: 0 Statistical analyses were conducted by FDA to determine whether the financial interests/arrangements had any impact on the clinical study outcome. FDA determined the information provided did raise questions about the reliability of the PMA P170003: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 30 of 34 data. The following additional actions were taken and deemed necessary to ensure the reliability of the data (21 CFR 54.5(c)): Initiating agency audits of the data derived from the clinical investigator(s) in question. ## XI. PANEL MEETING RECOMMENDATION AND FDA'S POST PANEL ACTION In accordance with the provisions of section 515(c)(3) of the act as amended by the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990, this PMA was not referred to the Circulatory System Devices Panel, an FDA advisory committee, for review and recommendation because the information in the PMA substantially duplicates information previously reviewed by this panel. ## XII. CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM PRECLINICAL AND CLINICAL STUDIES ### A. Effectiveness Conclusions The primary effectiveness data drawn from the LUTONIX® AV randomized clinical study demonstrated a reasonable assurance of effectiveness for the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon when used in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the indicated patient population. Target Lesion Primary Patency at 180 days from the LUTONIX® AV randomized trial was 71.4% in the LUTONIX® 035 DCB group and 63.0% in the Standard PTA group (p=0.0562). Although the primary effectiveness hypothesis of the study was not met at 180 days, overall results demonstrated a numerically higher patency rate in the LUTONIX® 035 DCB group as compared to conventional angioplasty through 12 months, though statistical significance was not achieved. Clinical benefit is observed through reduction of number of target lesion reinterventions (31% reduction at 6 months, 26% reduction at 9 months, and 17% reduction at 12 months). These results support the effectiveness of the LUTONIX® 035 DCB for the treatment of dysfunctional arteriovenous fistulae in the upper extremities. ### B. Safety Conclusions The risks of the device are based on non-clinical laboratory and animal studies as well as data collected in the clinical study conducted to support PMA approval as described above. The primary safety data drawn from the LUTONIX® AV randomized clinical study demonstrated a reasonable assurance of safety for the LUTONIX® 035 DCB when used in accordance to its indication for use. The event-free survival at 30 days from the LUTONIX® AV randomized trial was 94.9% in the LUTONIX® 035 DCB group and 95.8% in the Standard PTA group. In conclusion, the primary safety hypothesis of the study was met, indicating that treatment with the LUTONIX® 035 DCB is as safe as treatment with standard PTA (p &lt; 0.01). These results support the safety of the LUTONIX® 035 DCB for the treatment of dysfunctional arteriovenous fistulae in the upper extremities.

Benefit-Risk Determination The probable benefits of the device are based on data collected in the clinical study conducted to support PMA approval as described above. Clinical results show a numerically higher rate of primary patency in the Lutonix DCB vs. PTA arm through 12 months (available time period to date): rate difference of 5.9% at Day 90, 8.4% at Day 180, 11.6% at Day 210, 11.8% at Day 270, 7.8% at Day 365, and 10.2% at Day 395. Additionally, a meaningful reduction in the number in reinterventions was noted: 31% (44 DCB vs. 64 PTA) at 6 months, 26% (76 DCB vs. 103 PTA) reduction at 9 months, and 17% (115 DCB vs. 138) at 12 months. As described above, the event-free survival at 30 days was non-inferior to PTA, indicating that the probable risks from the LUTONIX® 035 DCB are similar to standard PTA. Additional factors to be considered in determining probable risks and benefits for the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon included: - Patient follow-up was satisfactory and with limited missing data. Follow-up times for the primary endpoints were 30 days for safety and 180 days for effectiveness, but follow-up will continue for 2 years to evaluate the longer term device performance, such as the duration of the benefit and long term adverse event rates. - This treatment may be preferred by patients compared to the alternatives as their quality of life may improve due to lesser need for repeat procedures. ## 1. Patient Perspectives This submission did not include specific information on patient perspectives for this device. In conclusion, given the available information above, the clinical data support that the probable benefits outweigh the probable risks for using the device for the treatment of de novo or restenotic symptomatic lesions in native arteriovenous fistulae in the arm, having reference vessel diameter from 4 mm to 12 mm and total lesion lengths up to 80 mm. ## D. Overall Conclusions The data in this application support the reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of this device when used in accordance with the indications for use. Though not statistically significant, the patency rate for the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon was trending higher than the patency rate for Standard PTA through the 12-month time point, demonstrating with reasonable assurance the effectiveness for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon. In addition, the event-free survival rate for the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon treatment group was non-inferior to the Standard PTA group at 30 days, indicating that percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with the LUTONIX® 035 Drug Coated Balloon is as safe as the current standard care of Standard PTA.

The final conditions of approval cited in the approval order are described below. 1. ODE Lead PMA Post-Approval Study – IDE Cohort Post Approval Study: The Office of Device Evaluation (ODE) will have the lead for this clinical study, which was initiated prior to device approval. This study will evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Lutonix 035AV Drug Coated Balloon Catheter (Lutonix 035 DCB) in the remaining 265 subjects from the premarket study. The premarket study was designed as a global, multicenter, single blind, randomized (1:1 Lutonix 035 DCB to PTA) trial. Subjects will be followed every 6 months through 24 months post-procedure. The primary effectiveness endpoint is target lesion primary patency (TLPP) through 24 months. The primary safety endpoint is freedom from any serious adverse event(s) involving the AV access circuit through 24 months. Additional endpoints to be assessed through 24 months post-procedure are: (1) access circuit primary patency (ACPP), (2) device, procedural, and clinical success, (3) abandonment of permanent access in the index extremity, (4) number of interventions required to maintain access circuit patency, (5) number of interventions required to maintain target lesion patency, and (6) rate of device and procedure related adverse events. 2. OSB Lead PMA Post-Approval Study – New Enrollment Post Approval Study Registry: The Office of Surveillance and Biometrics (OSB) will have the lead for studies initiated after device approval. This study will be conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Lutonix DCB for treatment of dysfunctional native arteriovenous (AV) fistulae located in the arm in a heterogeneous patient population in real-world clinical practice. This will be a prospective, single-arm, global multicenter, registry study of patients presenting with clinical and hemodynamic abnormalities in native AV fistulae located in the arm. Patients will be followed for 2 years and assessment will be performed at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after the index procedure by either clinical visit or telephone. Follow-up requirements including tests (e.g. angiography, Duplex Ultrasound) and examinations (AV assessment) will be conducted per standard of care. A sample size of 213 newly treated subjects will be enrolled from 15 to 30 US and international sites. Approximately 50% of subject enrollment and number of sites will be from the U.S. The primary effectiveness endpoint is Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) through 6 months compared to a performance goal (PG) of 61.4%. The primary safety endpoint is freedom from any serious adverse event(s) involving the AV access circuit through 30 days compared to a PG of 89%. The secondary effectiveness endpoints include device, procedural and clinical success; TLPP assessed at 12, 18, and 24 months, and number of reinterventions to maintain target lesion patency, Access Circuit Primary Patency (ACPP), number of reinterventions to maintain access circuit patency, and abandonment of permanent access in the index extremity assessed at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. The secondary safety endpoints include freedom from any serious adverse event(s) involving the AV access circuit and rate of device and procedure related adverse events assessed at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. The secondary endpoints will be summarized with descriptive statistics and confidence intervals.
