PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: at the end of the procedure

Population: Number of lesions assessed by the angiographic core lab

Less than or equal to 50% residual diameter stenosis following plaque excision remaining at the target lesion(s), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory

Outcome measures

Study Cohort
n=163 lesions
All participants were treated with SilverHawk/TurboHawk atherectomy catheters, with the SpiderFX Embolic Protection Device placed distally.
Successful Revascularization
92.0 percentage of lesions
Interval 87.6 to 95.2

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 Days

MAE was defined as a serious adverse event that results in death, acute myocardial infarction, dissection (grade C or greater), clinical perforation, pseudo-aneurysm, thrombosis, distal embolism (clinically relevant), amputation, or clinically-driven target vessel revascularization (TVR), through 30 days post-procedure, as adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC).

Major Adverse Event Free Rate 30 Days
93.1 percentage of participants
Interval 88.3 to 96.4

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at the end of the procedure

Population: Total patient population minus one patient because there was no angiographic post-treatment core lab data available.

Technical Procedural Success was defined as meeting all of the following requirements: * Less than or equal to 50% residual diameter stenosis at the target lesion(s), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory * No procedure-related Major Adverse Events (MAE), as adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) * No device malfunction causing the procedure to be aborted * Successful delivery and placement of the SpiderFX™ embolic protection device

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at the end of the procedure

Population: 1 lesion not included because there is no angiographic core laboratory post-treatment data available

This endpoint was met when there was less than 30% residual diameter stenosis following treatment with SilverHawk™ /TurboHawk™ plaque excision systems and any adjunctive therapy (if required), as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at the end of the procedure

Population: 115/133 subjects had the required angiographic images to assess this outcome.

Preservation of run-off distal to SpiderFX™ distal embolic protection device was determined by angiography of run-off vessels at the end of the procedure, as adjudicated by the angiographic core laboratory.
