Study Summary

The objective of this prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the everolimus eluting Esprit BTK System for the planned treatment of narrowed infrapopliteal lesions. Approximately 225 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio. The clinical investigation will be conducted at approximately 65 clinical sites in the US, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.

Primary Outcome

This endpoint was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Esprit BTK System in maintaining patency (CD-TLR and binary restenosis), and at preventing catastrophic limb events such as total vessel occlusion or major amputation. Composite of Limb Salvage and Primary Patency included freedom from: above ankle amputation in index limb, 100% total occlusion of target vessel, binary restenosis of target lesion and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR).
