May 24, 2019 updated by: Medtronic Endovascular

Directional AthErectomy Followed by a PaclItaxel-Coated BallooN to InhibiT RestenosIs and Maintain Vessel PatEncy: A Pilot Study of Anti-Restenosis Treatment

The DEFINITIVE AR study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized pilot study evaluating the use of either the TurboHawk™ or SilverHawk® plaque excision systems followed by treatment with the Cotavance™ drug-eluting balloon catheter versus the Cotavance balloon catheter alone in patients with peripheral arterial disease.
