Experimental: Lithoplasty System
Shockwave Coronary Rx Lithoplasty® System is a lithotripsy-enhanced, low-pressure balloon dilation of calcified, stenotic de novo coronary arteries prior to stent placement
|
Device: Shockwave Coronary Rx Lithoplasty® System
The Shockwave Coronary Rx Lithoplasty® System is a proprietary balloon catheter system designed to deliver localized, lithotripsy-enhanced, balloon dilatation of calcified, stenotic, de novo coronary arteries. Energizing the lithotripsy electrodes will generate pulsatile mechanical energy within the target treatment site and will disrupt calcium within the lesion and allow subsequent dilatation of a coronary artery stenosis using low balloon pressure. The system consists of a rapid exchange balloon catheter with integrated, internal lithotripsy electrodes and a Shockwave generator.

- Safety - Frequency of Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) Within 30 Days of the Procedure. [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
MACE defined as:
- Cardiac death
- Myocardial Infarction - defined as a CK-MB level > 3 times the upper limit of lab normal (ULN) value with or without new pathologic Q wave
- TVR - defined as revascularization at the target vessel (inclusive the target lesion) after the completion of the index procedure
- Performance [ Time Frame: Post-procedure (within 24 hours following procedure and prior to discharge) ]
The ability of the Shockwave System to produce acceptable residual stenosis (<50%) after stenting with no evidence of in-hospital MACE.
Clinical success measured by each patient that achieves both these requirements.
- Quantitative Assessment of the Residual Stenosis in Treated Lesions [ Time Frame: Post-procedure (within 24 hours following procedure and prior to discharge) ]Angiographic success defined as success in facilitating stent deliver with <50% residual stenosis and without serious angiographic complications. Serious angiographic complications defined as severe dissection (Type D to F), perforation, abrupt closure, and persistent slow flow or persistent no reflow
- 180 Day MACE [ Time Frame: 180 days post-procedure ]
MACE defined as:
- Cardiac death
- Myocardial Infarction - defined as a CK-MB level > 3 times the upper limit of lab normal (ULN) value with or without new pathologic Q wave
- TVR - defined as revascularization at the target vessel (inclusive the target lesion) after the completion of the index procedure
