Three-year outcomes of the TCD-17187 (Kanshas) drug-coated balloon for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the superficial femoral and proximal popliteal artery
摘要
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Kanshas drug-coated balloon (DCB) with paclitaxel for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or proximal popliteal artery (PA) over a 3-year period.
ResultsA prospective, multicenter, single-arm trial enrolled 121 patients with symptomatic lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). At 3 years, the primary patency rate was 63.4%, and freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) was 83.2%. Sustained improvements were observed in Rutherford classification, ankle brachial index (ABI), and walking impairment questionnaire (WIQ) scores. No device- or procedure-related deaths or major amputations occurred.
ConclusionsThe Kanshas DCB showed favorable safety and effectiveness for treating atherosclerotic lesions in the SFA and/or proximal PA over 3 years.
