ClinicaliQ Trial Snapshot
  • ORbital Atherectomy for Lesion Preparation in Patients With Chronic Limb-threatening ischEmia — Recruiting • Cardiology / Cardiovascular • NCT07270562.
  • What is being tested: Orbital atherectomy (OA), a minimally invasive procedure using a small spinning device for plaque removal, is being evaluated in real-world clinical practice for treating critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) across Europe in 250 patients.
  • Patient eligibility overview: The trial includes patients with CLTI—severe peripheral artery disease at risk of limb loss—who require intervention to restore blood flow to their lower limbs.

What This Trial Is Studying

ORACLE is a Europe-wide study that will follow 250 people with critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). It aims to see how well orbital atherectomy (OA) works in real-life practice. OA is a procedure that uses a tiny spinning tool to gently remove hard calcium from inside an artery, helping to open the vessel so other treatments-like balloons or stents-can work better. The study focuses on people who have heavily calcified arteries in the femoropopliteal or infrapopliteal areas of the leg.

Eligibility Snapshot
  • : 1. Rutherford classification category ≥4; 2. Treatment of femoropopliteal or infrapopliteal calcified lesions with OA using the Stealth 360 peripheral OA System; 3. Calcification of target lesions must be visible on fluoroscopy or CT-angiography; 4. Patients competent and willing to provide informed consent.
