๐ฌIn plain words
What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effect of Temsirolimus Perivascular Injection 0.1 mg/mL on the incidence of ischemia-driven major amputation, clinically driven target lesion revascularization, and clinically relevant target lesion occlusion after revascularization of lesions below the knee in patients with symptomatic Rutherford 3-5 peripheral artery disease. The primary safety endpoint will be gathered at 1-month post-index procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint will be gathered at 6 months post-index procedure. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years post-index procedure.

๐ Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria
Pre-procedural:
1. Participant has signed and dated informed consent, is capable of understanding the nature, significance and implications of the clinical trial, and is willing to comply with all study procedures and follow-up visits for the duration of the study.
2. Participant is male or female, aged 18 years or older.
3. If participant is female and of reproductive potential: agreement to use a highly effective contraception (abstinence is acceptable) for at least 90 days after study treatment.
4. Participant has severe claudication (Rutherford 3) or chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) (Rutherford 4-5) in the Target Limb.
Angiographic/Procedural:
5. Participant has up to two de novo or restenotic Qualified Target Lesions meeting the following criteria, each based on the Investigator's visual assessment. Target Lesions should be considered separate if they are located in separate vessels (not in the same blood path) or have more than 10 cm intervening normal artery.
Diameter
1. โฅ70% diameter stenosis anywhere within the Target Lesion or โฅ50% diameter stenosis spanning at least 10 cm of length.
2. Reference (normal) vessel diameter โฅ2 mm and โค8 mm. Location
3. Any lesion chosen as a Target Lesion is in or spans at least one below-knee popliteal (P3 segment), tibial, or peroneal artery and is a culprit for dominant disease symptoms based on Investigator's assessment.
4. โฅ50% of the Target Lesion length is below the knee joint space (\<50% of Target Lesion length may extend above the midline of the knee joint space).
5. โฅ10 mm away from any previously placed stent or graft.
6. A Target Lesion may cross an ostium of another artery (i.e. pass a bifurcation) but may only include one of the two branches. (Notes: Investigator should choose the dominant lesion for Target Lesion. Bifurcated lesions should be excluded, but if a lesion in a bifurcating vessel is separate from a Target Lesion based on intervening normal artery from which a proximal reference diameter can be measured, it may be treated as a second Target Lesion.) Length
7. โค30 cm in cumulative length from most proximal to most distal normal segment bounding the Target Lesion(s).
8. A single Target Lesion may be comprised of multiple lesions or multifocal lesions (i.e. tandem lesions) if there is no continuous normal segment \>10cm in length within the Target Lesion.
9. Target Lesion may be in a vessel with another Target Lesion or above-knee non-target lesion if it is \>10 cm away.
6. Participant receives successful revascularization, based on the following Investigator visual assessments:
1. Target Lesion and any treated non-target lesion in a Target Vessel or its inflow has \<30% residual stenosis, outflow has \<50% stenosis, and there is no flow-limiting dissection or perforation after treatment in an inflow vessel or Target Vessel.
2. Participant has distal run-off into the foot with a patent named pedal artery.
Exclusion Criteria
Pre-procedural:
1. Participant is already enrolled in another clinical study of systemic or local vascular drug therapy or a vascular device study that has not completed its primary endpoint, including prior enrollment in this study.
2. Participant is pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant during the first 12 months after their enrollment in the study.
3. Participant has presence of another anatomic or comorbid condition, or other medical, social, or psychological condition that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the participant's ability to complete the clinical investigation or comply with follow-up requirements.
4. Incapacitated individuals, defined as persons who are mentally ill, mentally handicapped, or individuals without legal authority, are excluded from the study population.
5. Participant has a life expectancy of โค1 year.
6. Participant received in the prior 2 months, is currently receiving, or is planned to receive systemic immunosuppressive therapy, immunotherapy or chemotherapy.
7. Participant has platelet count \< 100,000 cells per microliter or \> 700,000 cells per microliter, or hemoglobin \< 7.5 g/dL.
8. Participant is unable to receive H1 antihistamine, temsirolimus or iodinated contrast medium due to labeled contra-indications or known sensitivity reactions except for contrast allergies for which adequate prophylaxis may be used.
9. Participant has a CNS tumor.
10. Participant has had a myocardial infarction within the 30 days prior to study procedure.
11. Participant has had a cerebrovascular accident within the 90 days prior to the study procedure.
12. Participant has had an intracerebral hemorrhage within the 1 year prior to the study procedure.
13. Participant has had any vascular surgical or endovascular procedure performed within the 30 days prior to the Index Procedure or planned within the 30 days after the Index Procedure; allowable exceptions to this exclusion include the following:
1. Procedures performed during the same setting as the Index Procedure.
2. Prior staged revascularization in the Target Limb but not the Target Lesion (e.g. for inflow revascularization) within the 30 days prior to the Index Procedure.
14. Participant has a patent, previously implanted bypass graft within 3 cm of the Target Lesion.
15. Participant is bedridden or unable to walk (with assistance is acceptable). Participants in wheelchair who are able to mobilize on their own can be enrolled.
16. Participant has a planned major (above the ankle) amputation in the Target Limb.
17. Participant has had any amputation to the ipsilateral extremity other than the toe or forefoot, or has had major amputation to the contralateral extremity \< 1 year prior to index procedure and is not independently ambulating.
18. Participant has signs or symptoms of advanced limb infection or septicemia (fever \> 38.5โ, white blood cell count \> 15,000 cells per microliter, hypotension) at the time of assessment. Osteomy
