Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using a scoring balloon to prepare the femoropopliteal (FP) segment before drug-coated balloon treatment works better than using a regular balloon (called plain old balloon angioplasty, or POBA). This study includes only people with critical limb ischemia (CLI).

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Does using a scoring balloon reduce the need for a bailout stent during the procedure?
2. Does a scoring balloon help keep the artery open longer?
3. Is the cost of the scoring balloon procedure similar to the cost of the POBA procedure?

Participants will:

* Receive either a scoring balloon or POBA to prepare the femoropopliteal segment
* Then be treated with a drug-coated balloon in the same segment
* Be monitored during the procedure to see if a bailout stent is needed
* Have follow-up visits to see if the artery remains open

Conditions

  • Femoropopliteal Disease
  • Drug Coated Balloon
  • Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI)
  • Peripheral Arterial Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

POBA

The intervention consists of preparing the artery with a traditional/regular angioplasty balloon before using the DCB (Luminor™; Manufacturer: iVascular, S.L.U., Barcelona, Spain) as the definitive treatment.

DEVICE

Scoring Balloon

The intervention consists of preparing the artery with a scoring balloon (Angiosculpt™; Manufacturer: Spectranetics Corporation, Fremont, California, USA) before using the DCB (Luminor™; Manufacturer: iVascular, S.L.U., Barcelona, Spain) as the definitive treatment.
