Indications for Use

The Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) is intended for use in mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries ranging in diameter from 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm for the repair of post percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) dissection(s).

Device Story

The Tack Endovascular System® is a 4F delivery catheter containing 4 self-expanding Nitinol implants designed to repair post-PTA arterial dissections. Used in mid/distal popliteal, tibial, and peroneal arteries; operated by physicians in clinical settings. The system uses radiopaque markers on the delivery catheter and implants to guide precise positioning. Implants are deployed individually by retracting the outer sheath, allowing the Nitinol to expand and 'tack' dissected tissue to the vessel wall with low outward radial force. This stabilizes the vessel lining, potentially reducing the need for bailout stenting. The device provides a localized repair mechanism that minimizes metal coverage compared to traditional stents, aiming to improve vessel patency and reduce limb-threatening complications in patients with peripheral artery disease.

Clinical Evidence

Pivotal TOBA II BTK study (n=233) was a prospective, multi-center, single-arm trial. Primary safety endpoint (MALE+POD at 30 days) was 1.3% (vs 12% PG, p<0.0001). Primary effectiveness endpoint (freedom from MALE at 6 months + POD at 30 days) was 95.6% (vs 74% PG, p<0.0001). Secondary endpoint of tacked segment patency at 6 months was 82.1% (vs 64% PG, p<0.0001). No device fractures, migrations, or embolizations reported at 12 months.

PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {1} V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) is designed to repair vascular dissections with Tack implant(s) following angioplasty in the mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries, ranging from 1.5mm to 4.5mm in diameter. The 4F (1.33mm) catheter contains 4 independent self-expanding Tack implants made of a nickel-titanium alloy (Nitinol). When deployed, the Tack implants are designed to repair acute dissections of the inner wall or lining of an artery by “tacking” the damaged tissue to the inner luminal surface through a low outward radial force. The Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) consists of 4 self-expanding Nitinol implants and a 4F (1.33mm) Delivery Catheter (See Figure 1). The numbers in parentheses in the following section refer to those in Figure 1. The Tack implants are approximately 6mm in length and expand to an unconstrained diameter of 5.7mm (See Table 1). The Tack implants are designed with a relatively flat chronic outward force curve and may be used across all reference vessel diameters (RVDs) ranging from 1.5 to 4.5mm. Four RO Markers (16) as well as four pairs of Anchors (17) are located around the centerline of each Tack implant. The anchors assist in maintaining proper Tack implant position. The delivery catheter has effective lengths of 90cm and 150cm. The 4F Outer Braided Sheath (7), which constrains the Tack implants, is bonded proximally to the Bifurcation Luer (9) within the Strain Relief (8). The Hemostatic Valve (11) is integrated proximally to the Bifurcation Luer. The Inner Core Shaft (3) slides within the Hemostatic Valve and has five Proximal Inner Core Markers (13). The number of visible reference marks corresponds to the number of undeployed Tack implants remaining in the distal end of the delivery system. A soft, tapered Distal Tip (2) is bonded to the distal end of the Inner Core Shaft for ease of advancement in the blood vessel. Constrained within the Outer Braided Sheath, each self-expanding Tack implant is positioned on the Inner Core Shaft (3) between two radiopaque Distal Inner Core Markers (4) spaced approximately 7mm apart. A 1mm radiopaque Target Band (6) is located on the distal end of the Outer Braided Sheath. The catheter is flushed prior to the procedure through the side port of the Bifurcation Luer and the Guidewire Port. Tack implant positioning is achieved prior to deployment by using as reference the Middle RO Markers on the Tack implant and the Target Band on the outer sheath. During Tack implant deployment; the Hemostatic Valve is unlocked by rotating the valve counter-clockwise. The Tack implants are individually unsheathed by pinning the Proximal Inner Core Shaft and pulling back on the outer sheath the distance between proximal inner core markers. After each deployment, the Hemostatic Valve is locked by rotating the valve clockwise, ensuring that the proximal edge of the Target Band is secured directly over a Distal Inner Core Marker. Between deployments, both the proximal inner core markers and the distal inner core markers serve to visually represent the number of remaining Tack implants in the delivery catheter.

In Vivo Animal Studies A non-GLP Acute Porcine Animal Study was performed to verify the functionality and radiopacity of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) when deployed in the peripheral arteries of a porcine model. Additionally, a series of sub-chronic and chronic animal studies that support the safety and feasibility of the similar Tack Endovascular System® (6F, 4.0-8.0mm) were leveraged for the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm). The preclinical animal studies primarily focused on the inflammatory response, procedural techniques and the overall safety of the device in vivo in porcine models. The results of these animal studies demonstrated that the Tack implants produce minimal injury, inflammation, and neointimal hyperplasia following implantation in porcine arteries. Table 4 summarizes the results of the GLP studies conducted on devices representative of the final device design, including the 4F and 6F versions of the device. | Table 4.

SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDY The applicant performed the TOBA II BTK pivotal study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) in the repair of post-PTA dissections in the mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries in the United States, Europe and New Zealand under IDE # G160144. Data from this clinical study were the basis for the PMA approval decision. A summary of the clinical study is presented below. ## A. TOBA II BTK Study Design The prospective, multi-center, single-arm, non-blinded TOBA II BTK study investigated the safety and efficacy of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) for the repair of dissection(s) type(s) A through F resulting from percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) in the mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries. Patients were treated between February 8, 2017 and December 26, 2018. The original database for this PMA reflected data collected through August 28, 2019 and the study enrolled 233 subjects at 41 clinical sites. Additionally, FDA requested a post-hoc analysis of all available 12-month follow-up data. The post-hoc 12-month analysis reflected data collected from 151 subjects through December 15, 2019. The primary objectives of this study were to demonstrate the following outcomes: - **Safety**: Major adverse limb events (MALE) plus perioperative death (POD) at 30 days defined as a composite of all-cause death, above-ankle target limb amputation, or major re-intervention to the target lesion(s) (defined as new PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {11} bypass graft, jump/interposition graft revision, or thrombectomy/thrombolysis). - Effectiveness: Freedom from MALE at 6 months + POD at 30 days. These endpoints were evaluated against performance goals (PGs), as described below. The primary statistical method was a two-sided, single-group, exact binomial test comparing the observed proportion of subjects with MALE plus POD at 30 days, and subjects free of MALE at 6 months plus POD at 30 days to the respective (PG). The p-value associated with the test was determined along with a two-sided 95% lower confidence bound on the point estimate observed. An independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC) consisting of a team of clinical experts with experience in the conduct of clinical trials was formed to review clinical events reported by the investigators, or at the request of the Sponsor to determine if they met the prespecified endpoint definitions. Additionally, an independent board of multi-disciplinary physicians and subject matter experts was convened to serve as the Data Safety and Monitoring Board (DSMB) for the study. All study-related angiographic, duplex ultrasound (DUS) and X-ray imaging were reviewed and analyzed by independent core laboratories. 1.

Clinical Endpoints ### Primary Safety Endpoint With regard to safety, the primary endpoint was MALE plus POD at 30 days defined as a composite of all-cause death, above-ankle target limb amputation, or major re-intervention to the target lesion(s). The performance goal for this endpoint was set at 12% based on the information reported by Conte (2009)¹. The primary statistical analysis was conducted in subjects who met the intent-to-treat (ITT) definition and have observed data for the primary safety endpoint. A subject was considered an ITT patient and officially enrolled in the study once the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) was advanced through the introducer sheath. A per protocol (PP) analysis was also performed and included a subset of the ITT population with evaluable data that met the definition for device success, excluding subjects with major protocol deviations such as a major inclusion / exclusion criterion violation; or major procedural deviation. For safety, the primary statistical method was a one-sample exact test comparing the proportion of subjects free from a MALE plus POD to the performance goal using a two-sided α = 0.025. The exact two-sided 95% confidence interval for the proportion of subjects free from MALE plus POD was calculated. ### Primary Effectiveness Endpoint With regard to effectiveness, the primary endpoint was freedom from MALE at 6 months plus POD at 30 days. The performance goal for this endpoint is 74%, which was also derived from the information reported in Conte (2009). To meet the study primary endpoint, the two-sided lower 95% confidence interval must be greater than or equal to the performance goal of 74%. ### Secondary Endpoints A secondary endpoint of target lesion(s) tacked segment(s) patency at 6 months was defined as the presence of blood flow using duplex ultrasound. If angiography was ¹ Conte MS, Geraghty PJ, Bradbury AW, Hevelone ND, Lipsitz SR, Moneta GL, Nehler MR, Powell RJ, Sidawy AN.

PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {15} available within the 6-month follow-up visit window, it was used in place of the duplex ultrasound. Evidence of no blood flow within the Tacked segment indicated restenosis/loss of patency. This secondary endpoint was formally tested against a performance goal of 64%. The performance goal of 64% was chosen as a result of a meta-analysis combining 13 papers that reported 6-month patency for standard PTA or from which the 6-month patency rate could be derived. A two-sided lower 95% confidence bound was calculated for this estimate using the continuity corrected standard normal approximation. The lower bound was compared to the performance goal of 64%. An additional secondary endpoint of Target Limb Salvage, defined as freedom from any above-ankle target limb amputation at 6 months, was also collected. ## Observational Endpoints Observational endpoints include the following: - Device Success - Successful deployment of the Tack implant(s) at the intended target site(s) and successful withdrawal of the delivery catheter from the introducer sheath. - Target Lesion Success: Demonstrated target lesion patency (&lt;30% residual diameter stenosis (DS), by visual estimate) without the use of a bailout stent within the target lesion upon completion of the index procedure. This will be assessed for all lesions treated with a Tack implant. In addition, target lesion success will also be analyzed by lack of bailout stent to tacked segment only. Multiple target lesions treated as one lesion with PTA will be analyzed as one lesion. - Procedural Success: Demonstrated target lesion patency (&lt;30% residual DS, by visual estimate) without the use of a bailout stent within the target lesion and without the occurrence of MALE+POD upon completion of the index procedure. - Amputation-free survival (AFS): Freedom from above-ankle target limb amputation or all-cause death at 6 months. - Assisted primary target lesion Tacked segment patency (flow vs. no flow) at 6 months. - Secondary target lesion Tacked segment patency (flow vs. no flow) at 6 months. - PSVR patency at 6 months [Freedom from binary restenosis defined as Peak Systolic Velocity Ratio (PSVR) of ≥ 2.5 and/or angiographic percent diameter stenosis of ≥50%] assessed for the following: PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data 16 of 35 {16} ○ Target Lesion(s), defined as the entire contiguous arterial segment treated with angioplasty, inclusive of an additional proximal and distal margin of 5 mm. ○ Tacked Segment(s), defined as the Tack device and 5 mm of artery proximal and distal to each Tack. If Tacks are within 10 mm of each other, they will be considered as a single tacked segment for the purposes of this patency assessment. - Clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) through 6 months. - Clinically-driven target vessel revascularization (CD-TVR) through 6 months. - All-cause death through 6 months. - Any Target vessel revascularization (TVR) through 6 months. - Any Target lesion revascularization (TLR) through 6 months. In addition, the following observational endpoints were assessed at various time points through 36 months: - Changes in Wound, Ischemia, and foot Infection (WIfI) Classification - Changes in ankle brachial index (ABI) and toe brachial index (TBI) - Changes in Rutherford Classification - Changes in the EQ-5D-3L quality of life questionnaire - Changes in the Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ) - Tack implant integrity via X-ray (performed at 12-month visit) - Progress of wound(s) present at study entry (healed, improved, unchanged, worsening, amputated) - Appearance of new wound(s) after study entry - Unplanned below-ankle target limb amputation(s): digit or transmetatarsal ## B. Accountability of PMA Cohort At the time of database lock, of 233 patients enrolled in the PMA study, 88.0% (205) patients were available for analysis at the completion of the study, the 6 month post-operative visit. Additionally, FDA requested a post-hoc analysis of all available 12-month data. The post-hoc analysis consists of data collected from 64.8% (151) patients PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data 17 of 35 {17} through December 15, 2019.

Safety and Effectiveness Results 1. Safety Results Primary Safety Endpoint The primary safety endpoint was MALE (defined as a composite of all-cause death, above-ankle target limb amputation, or major re-intervention to the target lesion(s)) plus perioperative death (POD) at 30 days. The primary safety endpoint was MET. Three (1.3%) MALE events (two above the ankle amputations and one subject death) were reported in the first 30 days. The upper two-sided 95% confidence interval was 3.8% versus the PG of 12% (p&lt;0.0001). See Table 9 below. | Table 9 Primary Safety endpoint at 30 days | | | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Event Type | ITT or PP | % (n/N) (CI)^{1} | Performance Goal | p-value^{1} | Study Endpoint | | MALE + POD at 30 Days | ITT | 1.3% (3/228)^{2} | 12% | <.0001 | MET | | [CI] | | (0.3%, 3.8%) | | | | | Above-ankle target limb amputation at 30 Days | | 0.9% (2/229) | | | | | All-Cause Death at 30 Days | | 0.4% (1/229) | | | | | Major re-intervention to the target lesion at 30 Days | | 0.0% (0/229) | | | | | | | | | | | | MALE + POD at 30 Days | PP | 0.9% (2/212)^{2} | 12% | <.0001 | MET | | [CI] | | (0.1%, 3.4%) | | | | | Above-ankle target limb amputation at 30 Days | | 0.5% (1/213) | | | | | All-Cause Death at 30 Days | | 0.5% (1/213) | | | | | Major re-intervention to the target lesion at 30 Days | | 0.0% (0/213) | | | | 1 Exact binomial test for one proportion. Confidence interval is two-sided exact 95%. 2 One subject was not evaluable for the primary safety endpoint due to an early 30 day visit and no additional visits beyond 30 days. This subject was therefore not included in the denominator for the primary safety endpoint analysis. Adverse effects that occurred in the PMA clinical study: Table 10 below presents an overall summary of adverse events that have been reported through 210 days, displaying the events by device or procedure-relatedness and severity. No events were determined to be unanticipated. At 6 months, there were 28 subject deaths, none of which were attributable to the device.

PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {27} The WIfI classification system was developed by the Society for Vascular Society to grade the severity of the three major risk factors leading to amputation: wound, ischemia and foot infection. The scale for each factor ranges from 0 (none present) to 3 (severe). Subjects were evaluated at baseline and follow-up visits per Table 17.

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 TOBA II BTK pivotal clinical study included 180 investigators. None of the clinical investigators had disclosable financial interests/arrangements as defined in sections 54.2(a), (b), (c), and (f). The information provided does not raise any questions about the reliability of the data. ## 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 in vitro engineering testing conducted on the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) and delivery system demonstrated that the performance characteristics of the device met the product specifications. The test results obtained from sterilization testing demonstrated that the product can be adequately sterilized and is acceptable for clinical use. The shelf life testing has established acceptable performance for a labeled shelf life up to 2 years. PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data {32} The prospective, multi-center, single-arm, non-blinded TOBA II BTK study investigated the safety and efficacy of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) for the repair of dissection(s) type(s) A through F resulting from percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) in the mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries. The TOBA II BTK primary efficacy endpoint of freedom from MALE at 6 months plus POD at 30 days was 95.6% with a two-sided 95% lower confidence bound of 91.8%, which met the PG of 74% (p&lt;0.0001). The secondary endpoint of primary patency of the Tacked segments at 6 months was 82.1% with a two-sided 95% lower confidence bound of 77.2% which met the PG of 64% (p&lt;0.0001). The unpowered secondary endpoint of target limb salvage at 6 months was 98.5% with a two-sided 95% lower confidence bound of 95.8%. Device and procedure success per subject were adequate; 96.5% and 98.7%, respectively. At 12 months, there were no fractures, embolizations or migrations. ## B. Safety Conclusions The risks of the device are based on nonclinical laboratory and/or animal studies as well as data collected in a clinical study conducted to support PMA approval as described above. The TOBA II BTK primary safety endpoint of MALE plus POD at 30 days was met. Three (1.3%) MALE events (two above the ankle amputations and one subject death) and no PODs were reported in the first 30 days. The upper two-sided 95% confidence interval was 3.8% versus the PG of 12% (p&lt;0.0001). No unanticipated adverse device effects were observed, and no deaths were attributable to the device or procedure throughout the observed period. No unanticipated adverse device effects were observed, and no deaths were attributable to the device or procedure throughout the observed period. ## C. Benefit-Risk Determination The probable benefits of the device are based on data collected in the TOBA II BTK clinical study conducted to support PMA approval as described above. The benefits of the device include: - The PG regarding effectiveness was met. - The device has the ability to repair dissections while leaving less metal behind than stents, and the Tack implants are designed to apply low outward force to the vessel wall in an effort to reduce injury. - There was no evidence of embolization, fracture, or migration of the device in the TOBA II BTK clinical study. - The PG regarding safety was met, with no MAEs reported in the first 30 days of follow-up. PMA P190027: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data 33 of 35 {33} - The use of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) resulted in similar complications as other available endovascular implant devices used in PTA 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 data support that for use in mid/distal popliteal, tibial and peroneal arteries ranging in diameter from 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm for the repair of post-percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) dissections, the probable benefits of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) outweigh the probable risks. D. Overall Conclusions The data in this application support the reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) when used in accordance with the indications for use. The results from preclinical and clinical studies indicate that the Tack Endovascular System® (4F, 1.5-4.5mm) meets safety and performance specifications. The results from the TO…
