Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System Procedure
Use of AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System to facilitate the intraluminal placement of guidewires beyond Chronic Total Occlusions (CTOs) in the peripheral vasculature.
The AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System is intended to facilitate the intraluminal placement of guidewires beyond stenotic lesions, including chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in the peripheral vasculature.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Success of AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System
Time Frame: 24 Hours
Clinical Success is defined as the ability of the catheter to facilitate placement of a guidewire into the distal lumen in the absence of device-related major adverse events through discharge or 24-hours post-procedure, whichever is sooner.
24 Hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Technical Success of AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System
Time Frame: Procedure, evaluated directly after performing the investigational procedure
Technical Success is defined as the ability of the catheter to facilitate placement of a guidewire into the distal lumen.
Procedure, evaluated directly after performing the investigational procedure
Procedural Success of AngioSafe Peripheral CTO Crossing System
Time Frame: 30 Days
Procedural Success is defined as the ability of the catheter to facilitate placement of a guidewire into the distal lumen without a procedural complication within 30 days after the procedure. Procedural complication is defined as the need for open or repeat endovascular surgical repair in the treated limb, or a major bleeding event.
30 Days
Evaluation of Intraluminal CTO Crossing Facilitated by the Peripheral CTO Crossing System, as Assessed by an Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS).
Time Frame: Procedure, evaluated directly after performing the investigational procedure
Post-procedure IVUS evaluation of Technical Success cases to determine if crossing was performed intraluminally.
Procedure, evaluated directly after performing the investigational procedure
The Primary Endpoint (Clinical Success) in the Subgroups by the Degree of Calcification (None/Focal/Mild, and Moderate/Severe).
Time Frame: 24-hours
Clinical Success is defined as the ability of the catheter to facilitate placement of a guidewire into the distal lumen in the absence of device-related major adverse events through discharge or 24-hours post-procedure, whichever is sooner, analyzed by degree of calcification in two subgroups: None/Focal/Mild calcification, or Moderate/Severe calcification.
24-hours

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Lesion Crossing Time, Mean
Time Frame: Procedure, evaluated during the investigational procedure
Lesion crossing time is defined as time starting from the placement of the Peripheral CTO Crossing System at the proximal cap to the time the guidewire is placed in the distal true vessel lumen.
Procedure, evaluated during the investigational procedure
Lesion Crossing Time, Median
Time Frame: Procedure, evaluated during the investigational procedure
Lesion crossing time is defined as time starting from the placement of the Peripheral CTO Crossing System at the proximal cap to the time the guidewire is placed in the distal true vessel lumen.
Procedure, evaluated during the investigational procedure
Rutherford Clinical Classification (RCC) Assessment
Time Frame: Baseline, 30-days
The mean change in the Rutherford Clinical Classification (RCC) assessment at 30 days versus baseline. The Rutherford Clinical Classification (RCC) Scale identifies three grades of claudication and three grades of critical limb ischemia ranging from rest pain alone to minor and major tissue loss. The RCC Scale Categories and associated Clinical Descriptions are as follows: 0 - Asymptomatic, 1 - Mild claudication, 2- Moderate claudication, 3 - Severe claudication, 4 - Ischemic rest pain, 5 - Minor tissue loss, 6 - Ulceration or gangrene.
Baseline, 30-days
Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Assessment
Time Frame: Baseline, 30-days
The mean change in Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) assessment at 30-days versus baseline. The Pain Numeric Rating Scale (Pain NRS) is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity in adults. The NRS is anchored by terms describing pain severity extremes, where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain possible. The NRS Ratings and associated Clinical Descriptions are as follows: 0 - No Pain, 1-3 - Mild Pain, 4-6 - Moderate Pain, 7-9 - Severe Pain, 10 - Worst Pain Possible.
Baseline, 30-days
