disrupt cad iii with the shockwave coronary ivl system

Conditions: Coronary Artery Disease; Myocardial Infarction

Summary: the study design is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, global ide study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the shockwave medical coronary intravascular lithotripsy (ivl) system in de novo, calcified, stenotic coronary arteries prior to stenting. disrupt cad iii is being conducted as a staged pivotal study.

subject population: subjects ≥ 18 years of age with de novo, calcified coronary artery lesions presenting with stable, unstable or silent ischemia that are suitable for percutaneous coronary intervention (pci). approximately 392 subjects at 50 sites will be enrolled. a minimum of 50% of the total enrollment will come from the united states.subjects will be followed through discharge, 30 days, 6, 12 and 24 months.

Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: 1. subject is ≥18 years of age 2. subjects with native coronary artery disease (including stable or unstable angina and silent ischemia) suitable for pci 3. for patients with unstable ischemic heart disease, biomarkers (troponin or ck-mb) must be less than or equal to the upper limit of lab normal within 12 hours prior to the procedure (note: if both labs are drawn, both must be normal). 4. for patients with stable ischemic heart disease, biomarkers may be drawn prior to the procedure or at the time of the procedure from the side port of the sheath. 1. if drawn prior to the procedure, biomarkers (troponin or ck-mb) must be less than or equal to the upper limit of lab normal within 12 hours of the procedure (note: if both labs are drawn, both must be normal). 2. if biomarkers are drawn at the time of the procedure from the side port of the sheath prior to any intervention, biomarker results do not need to be analyzed prior to enrollment (note: ck-mb is required if drawn from the sheath). 5. left ventricular ejection fraction \>25% within 6 months (note: in the case of multiple assessments of lvef, the measurement closest to enrollment will be used for this criteria; may be assessed at time of index procedure) 6. subject or legally authorized representative, signs a written informed consent form to participate in the study, prior to any study-mandated procedures 7. lesions in non-target vessels requiring pci may be treated either: 1. \>30 days prior to the study procedure if the procedure was unsuccessful or complicated; or 2. \>24 hours prior to

radio-opacities noted without cardiac motion prior to contrast injection involving both sides of the arterial wall in at least one location and total length of calcium of at least 15 mm and extending partially into the target lesion, or by b) ivus or oct, with presence of ≥270 degrees of calcium on at least 1 cross section 14. ability to pass a 0.014" guide wire across the lesion exclusion criteria: 1. any comorbidity or condition which may reduce compliance with this protocol, including follow-up visits 2. subject is a member of a vulnerable population as defined in 21 cfr 56.111, including individuals with mental disability, persons in nursing homes, children, impoverished persons, persons in emergency situations, homeless persons, nomads, refugees, and those incapable of giving informed consent. vulnerable populations also may include members of a group with a hierarchical structure such as university students, subordinate hospital and laboratory personnel, employees of the sponsor, members of the armed forces, and persons kept in detention 3. subject is participating in another research study involving an investigational agent (pharmaceutical, biologic, or medical device) that has not reached the primary endpoint 4. subject is pregnant or nursing (a negative pregnancy test is required for women of child-bearing potential within 7 days prior to enrollment) 5. unable to tolerate dual antiplatelet therapy (i.e., aspirin, and either clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor) for at least 6 months (for patients not on oral anticoagulation) 6. subject has an allergy to imaging contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated 7. subject experienced an acute mi (stemi or non-stemi) within 30 days prior to index procedure, defined as a clinical syndrome consistent with an acute coronary syndrome with troponin or ck-mb greater than 1 times the local laboratory's upper limit of normal 8. new york heart association (nyha) class iii or
