Angiographic Inclusion Criteria

• The target lesion/vessel must meet all of the following angiographic criteria for the subject to participate in the trial:
• De novo lesion(s) or non-stented restenotic lesion
• Target lesion location starts at the P3 segment and terminates at 1cm above the ankle. Note: Isolated P3 lesion is not allowed. If a lesion starts in the P3 segment, it must continue into the infrapopliteal.
• Target vessel diameter ≥2 mm and ≤4 mm, based on visual estimation.
• Target lesion must have angiographic evidence of ≥70% stenosis by operator visual estimate.
• Chronic total occlusions may be included only after successful, uncomplicated wire crossing of target lesion. Successful crossing of the target lesion occurs when the tip of the guide wire is distal to the target lesion. Use of re-entry/crossing devices is not allowed. Crossing may be performed retrograde, but treatment must be performed antegrade.

Uncomplicated: Upon visual inspection, no occurrence of embolization, perforation, or occurrence of flow-limiting dissection.

• Target lesion(s) must be ≤230 mm in total lesion(s) length by operator visual estimate. A maximum of two lesions may be treated. The two lesions may be in one infrapopliteal vessel or in two distinct infrapopliteal vessels. Note: Tandem lesions may be considered a single lesion if they are separated by ≤30 mm.
• After pre-dilatation, the target lesion has ≤70% residual stenosis, absence of a flow limiting dissection (Grade D or greater) and treatable with available device matrix.
• A patent inflow artery free from significant stenosis (≥50% stenosis) as confirmed by angiography.
• At least one patent native outflow artery to the ankle or foot distal to the lesion being treated, free from significant stenosis (≥50% stenosis) as confirmed by angiography.

Angiographic Exclusion Criteria

• Aneurysm in the target vessel or proximal inflow artery.
• Inflow lesion or occlusion in the ipsilateral Iliac, SFA, popliteal arteries with length ≥15 cm.
• Significant stenosis (≥ 50%) in inflow lesion or occlusion in the ipsilateral iliac, SFA, popliteal arteries left untreated.
• Target lesion requires treatment with alternative therapy such as stenting, laser, atherectomy, cryoplasty, brachytherapy, or re-entry devices.
• Significant target vessel tortuosity or other parameters prohibiting access to the target lesion.
• Presence of thrombus in the target vessel.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Primary Safety Endpoint: Number of Participants with a composite of freedom from Major Adverse Limb Event (MALE) and perioperative death	MALE is defined as the composite of either major amputation or major re-intervention through 30 days of the index procedure. Major amputation is defined as limb amputation above the ankle. Major re-intervention is defined as the creation of new surgical bypass graft, the use of thrombectomy or thrombolysis, or major surgical graft revision such as a jump graft or an interposition graft.	30 Days
Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Rate of Late Lumen Loss (LLL)	LLL is assessed by quantitative vascular angiography (QVA). LLL is the difference between minimum lumen diameter (MLD) immediately after PTA and MLD at 6 months follow-up.	6 Months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Rate of Device Success	Successful delivery, balloon inflation, deflation and retrieval of the intact study device	Acute/Periprocedural
Rate of Technical Success	Successful vascular access, completion of endovascular procedure and immediate achievement of ≤ 50% residual stenosis (by core lab-assessed quantitative vascular angiography) of the treated lesion on completion of angiography.	Acute/Periprocedural
Rate of Procedure Success	Device Success or Technical Success and the absence of procedural complications.	Acute/Periprocedural
Rate of Restenosis	Assessed by Transverse-view vessel area loss percentage (TVAL%) assessed by QVA. TVAL% of the target lesion at 6 months or prior to any clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) of the target lesion prior to 6 months.	6 Months or prior
Number of Participants with Primary Patency	Freedom from target vessel occlusion as determined by DUS and CD-TLR. CD-TLR is defined as any TLR of the target lesion associated with deterioration of Rutherford Class and/or increase in size of pre-existing wounds and/or occurrence of new wound(s), and lesion restenosis >50% determined by angiography.	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Major Adverse Event (MAE) rate	Composite rate of all-cause death, target limb major amputation and CD-TLR.	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Amputation Free Survival	Rate of subjects not requiring major amputations	6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Hemodynamic outcomes	Change in ankle brachial index (ABI) and toe pressure from pre-procedure.	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Change in Rutherford-Becker Classification	Change from pre-procedure	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
EQ-5D	The EQ-5D is not an abbreviation. It is a quality of Life evaluation quantified as the change from pre-procedure to time points specified below. The descriptive system comprises 5 dimensions (mobility, self care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression). Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. Each level corresponds to 1-digit number expressing the level selected for that dimension. The EQ VAS corresponds to a 20 cm vertical, visual analogue scale raging from 'the best health you can imagine' to 'the worst health you can imagine'	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ)	Walking Capacity Assessment quantified as the change from pre-procedure to time points specified below.The questions characterize patients' self-reported degree of difficulty in walking a defined distance (5, 3, 2, 1, 1/2 city blocks, 50 ft. or around the home) and speed (running/jogging one block, walking one block quickly, walking one block at average speed, or walking one block slowly). These responses are ranked on a scale of 0 to 4, (0=unable to do, 4=no difficulty). Subscale scores are determined by dividing the weighted answers by the maximum possible weighted score and multiplying by 100. Each score ranges from 0-100 with lower scores indicating lower performance. The overall score is the average of all 3 subscores.	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
Vascular Quality of Life Questionnaire (VascuQol)	Quality of Life evaluation quantified as the change from pre-procedure to time points specified below. VascuQol is an instrument in which the participant is asked about their concerns, abilities, and activities. Overall values can range from 6 to 24, with a higher total sum representing better participant health.	30 Days, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months
