Intended Use

The AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter is indicated for the treatment of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis, including in-stent restenosis and complex type C lesions, for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion.

Device Story

The AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter is a PTCA catheter featuring a conventional nylon-blend balloon with an integrated nitinol scoring element consisting of three spiral struts. Used in clinical settings by interventional cardiologists, the device is advanced over a 0.014-inch guide wire to a coronary stenosis. Upon inflation, the nitinol struts create focal concentrations of dilating force, which minimizes balloon slippage and assists in luminal expansion of stenotic arteries. The device is compatible with 6F guide catheters and is available in various diameters and lengths. By providing a stable, non-slip platform for dilation, the device facilitates the treatment of complex lesions and in-stent restenosis, potentially improving myocardial perfusion and reducing the need for additional interventions.

Clinical Evidence

Evidence includes a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm IDE study (n=200) and an OUS study (n=45). Primary endpoints were procedural success (≤50% final diameter stenosis without MACE) and clinical success (freedom from MACE at 14 days). In the IDE study, procedural success was 98.5% and clinical success was 97.5%. MACE rate was 2.5% (5/200). IVUS sub-study (n=80) showed increased minimal lumen area post-treatment. No significant gender bias was observed.

Technological Characteristics

Catheter includes a nylon-blend balloon and a nitinol scoring element with three spiral struts. Available in 2.0-3.5mm diameters and 10-20mm lengths. Compatible with 0.014-inch guide wires and 6F guide catheters. Radiopaque Pt/Ir markers for positioning. Sterilized via ethylene oxide (EO) to SAL 10^-6. Single-use device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis, including in-stent restenosis and complex type C lesions, requiring percutaneous coronary intervention. Contraindicated in lesions unsuitable for percutaneous revascularization and coronary artery spasm without significant stenosis.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

To reduce coronary artery stenosis by dilatation of the balloon and by apposition of the cutting/scoring surfaces to the stenotic material for the treatment of coronary artery stenosis to improve myocardial perfusion.

Shelf Life, Packaging, and Sterilization Testing Package testing was completed to evaluate the effects of distribution, handling and storage on the AngioSculpt catheter device and package configuration. The package and shelf life testing complied with requirements in: - ISO 11607:2003E “Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices.” P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter {5} - ASTM F1980-02 “Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Medical Device Packages.” - ASTM F2097-01 “Standard Guide for Design and Evaluation of Primary Packaging for Medical Products.” Results from testing conducted on finished product which was aged for at least one year demonstrate the robustness of the AngioSculpt product and packaging, and support a one (1) year shelf life. The AngioSculpt catheter is sterilized using a validated gaseous ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization process that provides a sterility assurance level (SAL) of at least $10^{-6}$. The device is labeled for single use only. EO residuals have been demonstrated through testing to be within acceptable limits, as described in ISO 10993-7: 1995 (R) 2001, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 7: Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Residuals.” ## D. In Vivo Simulated Use Testing Testing in human cadaver and animal models demonstrated that the AngioSculpt catheter was appropriate for human clinical evaluation. A summary of in vivo simulated use testing conducted on the AngioSculpt catheter is provided in Table 3. Table 3: Simulated Use Tests | Test | Summary | | --- | --- | | Human Cadaver Testing | Performance of the AngioSculpt catheter was evaluated in severely diseased amputated human legs. All lesions were successfully treated with resultant residual diameter stenosis of <10%. Pre- and post-angiograms and IVUS images revealed no significant dissections and no perforations at the site of AngioSculpt catheter treatment. Most lesions yielded at low device inflation pressures (4-6 atmospheres). Gross and histopathology confirmed the absence of vessel perforation or other unexpected injury. | | Porcine Native Vessel Deliverability Studies | The AngioSculpt catheter was tested in normal porcine coronary arteries to evaluate device deliverability and safety. Using standard interventional techniques the AngioSculpt catheter was deployed at several sites in multiple coronary arteries of several animals. The device was successfully delivered to proximal, mid and distal locations in each coronary artery attempted. Device integrity was maintained throughout the procedures. Post-procedural coronary angiography revealed no evidence of dissection, perforation, spasm or distal embolization for all locations treated. | P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter {6} | Test | Summary | | --- | --- | | Porcine ISR Studies | The AngioSculpt catheter was tested in acute and chronic (~ 4 week) porcine coronary artery balloon overstretch/stent injury models to evaluate device performance in an accepted porcine coronary artery model of in-stent restenosis. Acceptable residual diameter stenosis was demonstrated by angiography immediately following AngioSculpt treatment. Post-treatment IVUS demonstrated significant improvement in luminal dimensions with “scoring” marks visible consistent with the geometry of the nitinol wires of the device. No dissections or vessel perforations were revealed on coronary angiography or intravascular ultrasound. No animals suffered any complications, hemodynamic instability or unexpected death during the procedure. No device “slippage” was observed during any AngioScore catheter treatment. Histopathologic evaluation of treated segments from animals sacrificed immediately after the treatment demonstrated clear-cut neointimal “scoring” marks at the presumed sites of nitinol wire impact with no evidence of vessel wall perforation. Approximately 28 days post AngioSculpt treatment, the angiographic data showed no signs of detectable dissection, vessel perforation, distal embolization, thrombus formation, aneurysm formation, filling defects, or other adverse cardiac events. The 28-day histology showed low injury scores and mild to moderate intimal response to AngioSculpt catheter treatment; the results were similar to that of balloon angioplasty or stenting. | ## IX.

In addition to MACE, a total of 23 non-MACE cardiovascular events and 37 non-cardiovascular events were reported by the clinical sites. Among these events, the principal cardiovascular events were classified as unstable angina (3%), coronary artery injury (dissection, perforation, or rupture, 1.5%), hypotension (1.5%), and excessive blood loss/hemorrhage requiring transfusion or hematoma (1.5%). These events have been associated with use of other PTCA catheters. ## C. Observed Device Malfunctions In total, there were 16 reported failures to cross the lesion with the AngioSculpt catheter. Fifteen of these failures were adjudicated as device-related. There was one failure to cross the lesion which was adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee as procedure-related but unrelated to the study device. All sixteen lesions were subsequently successfully pre-dilated with a commercially available balloon followed by stent placement. There were two reported cases of device malfunction due to loss of balloon pressure below rated burst pressure. These device malfunctions were unassociated with any adverse event. ## X. SUMMARY OF CLINICAL STUDIES The safety and performance of the AngioSculpt catheter has been evaluated through domestic and international clinical investigations. The pivotal clinical study was a multi-center clinical investigation that enrolled two-hundred (200) patients at nine (9) centers in the United States. Prior to the pivotal study, AngioScore sponsored clinical investigations outside of the United States (OUS) involving two (2) centers and forty-five (45) patients. Results from these studies demonstrate that the AngioSculpt catheter is safe with an acceptably low rate of complications and effective in a broad range of coronary artery lesions consistent with its intended use. ## A. IDE Clinical Trial P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter Page 9 of 19 {9} Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AngioSculpt catheter in a wide range of coronary artery lesions in both native vessels and following in-stent restenosis (ISR). Conclusion: Results of the pivotal U.S. multi-center clinical investigation demonstrate that the AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter is safe and effective for use in PTCA procedures. The procedural success rate, clinical success rate, and MACE rate and type observed in this investigation met the objective performance criteria developed from published scientific literature for other PTCA balloon catheters. There was no increase in the observed rate of perforations or dissections. The investigation results also demonstrate that the AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter provides a stable, non-slip platform that can be safely used to treat de novo coronary lesions (including complex type C lesions) and ISR lesions. Design: A prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single arm investigational study was conducted in the United States at nine (9) sites enrolling two-hundred (200) patients. Clinical sites followed an investigational plan and protocol approved under an FDA-approved IDE application. The investigation was designed to evaluate the following primary performance and safety objectives: - To compare a procedural success rate to objective performance criteria for percutaneous coronary intervention derived from contemporary published literature. - To compare a clinical success rate to objective performance criteria for percutaneous coronary interventions derived from contemporary published literature. Endpoints: The primary effectiveness endpoint was procedural success, defined as $\leq 50\%$ final diameter stenosis in at least one of the AngioSculpt-attempted lesions following completion of the interventional procedure, including adjunctive stenting when used, without death, Q wave or non-Q wave MI, or emergency CABG surgery during the hospital stay. The primary safety endpoint was clinical success rate, defined as freedom from MACE [death, Q wave or non-Q wave MI, or target lesion revascularization (TLR)] at 14-day follow-up. Eligibility Criteria: The AngioSculpt U.S. clinical investigation study population included patients with single or multiple vessel coronary artery disease who were scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention because of symptoms of stable or unstable angina. No more than two lesions were to be treated during the index procedure. Key patient selection criteria were: - At least 18 years of age and able to give informed consent - Stenotic lesions in native coronary arteries, including in-stent restenosis - Lesions with a reference vessel diameter (RVD) between $2.0\mathrm{mm}$ and $4.0\mathrm{mm}$. - Target lesions meeting the following criteria were cause for exclusion: - Totally obstructed coronary arteries (TIMI 0 or 1 flow) P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter {10} - Lesions longer than 30 mm - Target lesion in a severe angulation (&gt; 60 degrees) - Target lesion distal to a freshly deployed stent - Target lesion within a previously-placed polymer-coated stent (drug or non-drug eluting), unless complete tissue coverage of the stent was verified with IVUS - Target lesion demonstrating severe dissection prior to planned deployment of the AngioSculpt device - Visible thrombus at the target lesion - Unprotected left main artery - Severe calcification - Lesions in surgical conduits **Baseline Characteristics:** Following informed consent, 200 patients (age 63.5 ± 11.3 years, males 72%) referred for percutaneous coronary intervention underwent treatment with the AngioSculpt catheter. Of these patients, 27% (54/200) had a history of diabetes mellitus. Unstable angina was present in 31.5% (63/200) of patients. Other relevant clinical characteristics are described in Table 5, and are consistent with that of typical patients in whom the AngioSculpt catheter is likely to be used. | Table 5: Baseline Patient Demographics and Clinical Characteristics | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | Aggregate | Range | 95% C.I. | | Age | 63.45 +/- 11.32 (200) | (31.44, 90.50) | (61.87, 65.03) | | Male | 71.5% (143/200) | | (64.7%, 77.6%) | | Female | 28.5% (57/200) | | (22.4%, 35.3%) | | Race-Caucasian | 84.5% (169/200) | | (78.7%, 89.2%) | | Race-African American | 8.0% (16/200) | | (4.6%, 12.7%) | | Race-Hispanic | 3.5% (7/200) | | (1.4%, 7.1%) | | Race-Asian | 1.5% (3/200) | | (0.3%, 4.3%) | | Race-Other | 2.5% (5/200) | | (0.8%, 5.7%) | | BMI | 29.70 +/- 5.66 (200) | (18.04, 53.50) | (28.91, 30.49) | | Ejection Fraction: Normal (>50%) | 61.5% (123/200) | | (54.4%, 68.3%) | | Ejection Fraction: 35-50% | 33.5% (67/200) | | (27.0%, 40.5%) | | Ejection Fraction: <35% | 0.5% (1/200) | | (0.0%, 2.8%) | | Stable Angina | 53.5% (107/200) | | (46.3%, 60.6%) | | Unstable Angina | 31.5% (63/200) | | (25.1%, 38.4%) | | History of Diabetes | 27.0% (54/200) | | (21.0%, 33.7%) | | Insulin Dependent Diabetes | 7.5% (15/200) | | (4.3%, 12.1%) | | Non-insulin Dependent Diabetes | 19.5% (39/200) | | (14.2%, 25.7%) | | History of PTCA | 57.0% (114/200) | | (49.8%, 64.0%) | | History of CABG | 15.5% (31/200) | | (10.8%, 21.3%) | P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter Page 11 of 19 {11} | Table 5: Baseline Patient Demographics and Clinical Characteristics | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | Aggregate | Range | 95% C.I. | | History of CVA/TIA | 9.0% (18/200) | | (5.4%, 13.9%) | | History of MI | 26.0% (52/200) | | (20.1%, 32.7%) | | History of Smoking | 58.0% (116/200) | | (50.8%, 64.9%) | | History of CHF | 6.0% (12/200) | | (3.1%, 10.2%) | | History of Hypertension Requiring Medication | 78.0% (156/200) | | (71.6%, 83.5%) | | History of Hyperlipidemia Requiring Medication | 85.0% (170/200) | | (79.3%, 89.6%) | | History of Peripheral Vascular Disease | 8.0% (16/200) | | (4.6%, 12.7%) | | History of Renal Insufficiency | 9.0% (18/200) | | (5.4%, 13.9%) | | Family History of CAD | 46.5% (93/200) | | (39.4%, 53.7%) | | Patients with only 1 Lesion Treated with ASC | 84.5% (169/200) | | (78.7%, 89.2%) | | Patients with 2 Lesions Treated with ASC | 15.5% (31/200) | | (10.8%, 21.3%) | | • Denominators were adjusted to include all patients and unknown information for medical history. • ASC = AngioSculpt | | | | Baseline qualitative and quantitative angiographic characteristics are summarized in Table 6 below.

Patients were premedicated according to institutional protocol for procedures involving stents, a coronary angiogram of the target lesion was obtained, and a guide wire was positioned beyond the target lesion. When used to pre-dilate the lesion prior to preplanned stenting, physicians were instructed to select a catheter that was one size smaller relative to the estimated reference vessel diameter (RVD). For example, for a RVD of 3.0 mm by visual estimation, a 2.5 mm diameter device was used. When used for in-stent restenosis, catheters were selected to closely approximate the RVD (≤ 1.0 × RVD). The AngioSculpt catheter was prepped according to the IFU and standard procedures. The AngioSculpt catheter was advanced over the coronary guide wire to the target lesion. Cineangiograms were performed to confirm proper positioning prior to balloon inflation. Additional clinically indicated interventions (e.g., stent placement) were performed at the discretion of the investigator. Anticoagulation and antiplatelet medications were prescribed per institutional protocol for procedures involving stents. Post-procedure evaluations were performed until hospital discharge and at 14-21 days following the procedure. Results of the evaluations and procedure assessments, including post-procedure adverse events and patient withdrawals, were documented on study specific case report forms (CRFs). P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter Page 13 of 19 {13} QCA, ECG and IVUS analysis were performed by independent Core Laboratories. All suspected MACE and device failures/malfunctions were adjudicated by an independent Clinical Events Committee. Results: Data analysis was performed on an intent-to-treat basis. The study met its primary safety and efficacy objectives as described below and summarized in Table 7. All patients and all lesions had a final diameter stenosis that was ≤ 50% in at least one AngioSculpt-attempted lesion following completion of the interventional procedure. Three patients experienced in-hospital MACE (two non-Q wave MI, one Q wave MI) contributing to a procedural success rate of 98.5% (197/200). Additionally, two patients experienced MACE post-hospital discharge (one Q wave MI with TLR-PCI and one Q wave MI with TLR-CABG). This resulted in a clinical success rate of 97.5% (195/200). All AEs, including MACE, are within the expected rates for this patient population. | Table 7: Summary of Primary Endpoint Results | | | | --- | --- | --- | | | Aggregate | Lower bound one-sided 95% C.I. | | Procedural Success | 98.5% (197/200) | 96.2% | | Clinical Success | 97.5% (195/200) | 94.8% | | Procedural Success = ≤50% final diameter stenosis in at least one AngioSculpt-attempted lesion following completion of the interventional procedure, including adjunctive stenting when used, without death Q-wave or non-Q-wave MI, or emergency CABG during the hospital stay.

Table 8 summarizes the angiographic results following AngioSculpt treatment and following adjunctive stenting, which was performed in 97.7% (211/216) of cases. The post-AngioSculpt dissection rate was 13.6% with the majority of these rated as low grade (A-C) utilizing the NHLBI classification. In all treated lesions, the AngioSculpt catheter demonstrated stable position during deployment without slippage. | Table 8: QCA and Lesion Morphology Characteristics (Post-Procedure/In-Hospital | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | Aggregate | Range | 95% C.I. | | Procedural Success | 98.5% (197/200) | 96.2% | 97.5% (195/200) | | Clinical Success | 97.5% (195/200) | 94.8% | 94.8% (195/200) | | Procedural Success = ≤50% final diameter stenosis in at least one AngioSculpt-attempted lesion following completion of the interventional procedure, including adjunctive stenting when used, without death Q-wave or non-Q-wave MI, or emergency CABG during the hospital stay.

There were no adventitial dissections or intramural hematomas, and there was no thrombus formation or any other evidence of unanticipated vessel injury following AngioSculpt treatment at the lesion site or in the adjacent reference vessel segments. ## B. Outside of the United States (OUS) Clinical Investigations **Objective:** To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AngioSculpt catheter in a wide range of coronary artery lesions in both native vessels and following in-stent restenosis (ISR). **Conclusion:** The initial OUS AngioSculpt clinical investigation shows favorable clinical results in a wide range of de novo lesions and in-stent restenosis (ISR). All patients completed 14-28 day post procedure clinical follow-up and experienced no major adverse cardiac events (MACE: death, Q wave or non-Q wave myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization) in-hospital or post discharge related to the study device. **Design:** A multi-center clinical investigation was performed at two OUS sites, which enrolled a total of forty-five (45) patients. **Endpoints:** The study was designed to evaluate the following primary performance and safety objectives: - To demonstrate that the incidence and severity of device-related complications at one month follow-up are acceptably low. - To demonstrate successful percutaneous revascularization (defined as a reduction in target lesion diameter stenosis to $\leq 50\%$ following completion of all interventions) when a stable (slip-resistant) platform for coronary artery dilatation is desired. **Eligibility Criteria:** The study population included adult patients scheduled to undergo clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention at the designated clinical site for this study. All study candidates were required to provide, or have an authorized P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter {17} legal representative provide, documented informed consent. Study subjects were required to understand the nature of the procedure, give informed consent, and be available for 14-28 day follow-up. Key patient selection criteria were: - At least 18 years of age or older, or age of legal consent - Planning to undergo clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention - Target lesion reference vessel size 2.0 - 4.0 mm diameter - Target lesion length ≤ 30 mm - Target lesion severity ≥ 60% diameter stenosis **Methods:** Following informed consent, patients referred for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and meeting the study inclusion criteria underwent treatment with the AngioSculpt catheter. Enrolled patients had routine pre-procedure baseline assessments and were pre-medicated according to institutional protocol for percutaneous coronary interventions. At one investigational site, when technically possible, IVUS of the target lesion was performed prior to device deployment. Coronary angiography of the target lesion was performed following completion of each device treatment and prior to adjunctive stent placement. IVUS of the target lesion was performed following device treatment (and prior to adjunctive stent placement). Additional clinically indicated interventions (e.g. stent placement) were performed and coronary angiography of the target lesion following completion of all interventions was performed in the original views. The AngioSculpt catheter was rated by the investigators after each use on pushability, trackability and passability on a scale of 0 - 4 (0=worst, 4=best) and on the degree of slippage during the procedure on a scale of 0 - 3 (0=none, 3=severe slippage). Results of the evaluations and procedure assessments, including post-procedure adverse events and patient withdrawals, were documented on study-specific case report forms (CRFs). One clinical investigator voluntarily arranged for eleven (11) ISR patients to return for follow-up examination six months after the interventional procedure. The investigator’s assessments conducted at the 6-month follow-up included angiography and IVUS. **Results:** The AngioSculpt catheter was utilized in 45 patients and a total of 46 lesions, consisting of 32 native vessels and 14 ISR lesions. The AngioSculpt catheter was successfully deployed in all 46 lesions. IVUS imaging demonstrated plaque scoring and luminal expansion following treatment with the AngioSculpt catheter with no perforations or other evidence of unanticipated vessel injury. There were no device-related major adverse cardiac events (MACE: death, Q wave or non-Q wave myocardial infarction, ischemia driven target lesion revascularization) encountered during hospitalization or during the follow-up period (24.8±8.5 days). There were no instances of device malfunction, retained device components or embolization. There was no evidence of any damage or deterioration in any of the devices. Overall, the P050018 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) AngioSculpt® Scoring Balloon Catheter Page 18 of 19 {18} device was reported as being very deliverable. There was no clinically significant slippage associated with AngioSculpt use. ## C. Gender Bias The proportion of men and women enrolled in the U.S. pivotal study were consistent with previous studies of devices used in percutaneous interventions. Subgroup analysis was conducted to evaluate the effect of gender on primary efficacy outcomes. Gender was not significantly associated with the clinical outcomes. Since clinical outcomes were not associated with gender, these data demonstrated that gender was not an influencing factor on safety or effectiveness. ## XI. CONCLUSIONS FROM CLINICAL AND NON-CLINICAL STUDIES The safety and effectiveness of the AngioSculpt Scoring Balloon Catheter have been demonstrated by results obtained from biocompatibility testing, engineering bench testing, cadaver and in vivo animal testing, sterilization and shelf life testing, and clinical investigations.

Together, the clinical and non-clinical test results provide reasonable assurance that the AngioSculpt catheter is safe and effective when used as indicated and in accordance with the instructions for use. ## XII.
