ClinConnect Summary

This study is a prospective, multi-center 1:1 randomized trial. Patients will be stratified according to lesion length (≤ 10 cm/ \> 10 cm and \< 20 cm / \> 20 cm and ≤ 30 cm). Each strata will include approximately 138 patients.

The trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the Ranger™ Drug Coated Balloon in comparison to the IN.PACT™ Drug Coated Balloon in patients with symptomatic femoropopliteal artery disease.

All enrolled subjects will be followed through to 24 months to assess the incidence of restenosis by ultrasound and major adverse events (MAE). Follow-up visits occur a...
