Waitlist Available
Led By Marianne Brodmann, MD
Research Sponsored by SurModics, Inc.
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Subject is ≥18 years.
Successful, uncomplicated (without use of a crossing device) 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 without the occurrence of flow-limiting dissection or perforation and is judged by visual inspection to be within the true lumen.

TRANSCEND Trial Summary

This trial tests a new drug-coated balloon to treat peripheral artery disease. The goal is to show it is safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
Adults with symptomatic peripheral artery disease due to femoral/popliteal artery blockage. They must have a specific level of arterial disease severity, be able to follow the study plan, and not have had certain recent treatments or conditions that could interfere with the trial.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of SurVeil Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) compared to Medtronic IN.PACT Admiral DCB in treating narrowed arteries in patients with peripheral artery disease.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include local reactions at the treatment site, bleeding complications due to antiplatelet therapy, possible allergic reactions to drug coatings or contrast media used during procedures.
