Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - RANGER™ Paclitaxel Coated Balloon
Treatment: Drugs - Paclitaxel
Treatment: Surgery - Standard Balloon Angioplasty

Experimental: RANGER™ Paclitaxel Coated Balloon - RANGER™ Paclitaxel Coated Balloon Catheter angioplasty in the SFA/PPA at the index procedure.
Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to the drug coated or standard angioplasty balloon.

Active Comparator: Standard Balloon Angioplasty - Standard Balloon Catheter angioplasty in the SFA/PPA at the index procedure. Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to the drug coated or standard angioplasty balloon.


Treatment: Devices: RANGER™ Paclitaxel Coated Balloon
A procedure that utilizes a balloon coated with paclitaxel (drug) which can open up a blocked blood vessel using a small, flexible plastic tube, or catheter, with a "balloon" at the end of it. When the tube is in place, it inflates to open the blood vessel, or artery, so that normal blood flow is restored. The tube is then removed. The blood vessels that will be treated in the RANGER II SFA study include the superficial femoral arteries and the proximal popliteal arteries.

Treatment: Drugs: Paclitaxel
The RANGER™ Balloon is coated with the drug Paclitaxel.

Treatment: Surgery: Standard Balloon Angioplasty
A procedure that utilizes an uncoated balloon which can open up a blocked blood vessel using a small, flexible plastic tube, or catheter, with a "balloon" at the end of it. When the tube is in place, it inflates to open the blood vessel, or artery, so that normal blood flow is restored. The tube is then removed. The blood vessels that will be treated in the RANGER II SFA study include the superficial femoral arteries and the proximal popliteal arteries.
