Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, non-randomized, first-in-man investigational study, to assess the safety and technical feasibility, deployment and withdrawal characteristics of the NovaCross™ micro-catheter during an interventional coronary angioplasty procedure and evaluating the CTO penetration rate.

Each study subject/patient will have a total of one (1) procedure performed for this study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

NovaCross, CTO

assess the safety and technical feasibility, deployment and withdrawal characteristics of the NovaCross™ micro-catheter during an interventional coronary angioplasty procedure and evaluating the CTO penetration rate.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

NovaCross, CTO

Intervention Type DEVICE

evaluate the safety and performance of the NovaCross™ micro-catheter in respect to providing additional guidewire support that is expected to allow easier crossing of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions in coronary arteries.

Interventions

Learn about the drugs, procedures, or behavioral strategies being tested and how they are applied within this trial.

NovaCross, CTO

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Adult aged 25-80
2. Patient understands and has signed the study informed consent form.
3. Patient has an angiographic documented Chronic Total Occlusion (i.e. \>3 months occlusion duration) showing distal TIMI flow 0.
4. Suitable candidate for non-emergent, coronary angioplasty
5. Documented coronary angiography preceding the PCI reveals at least one CTO lesion situated in a non-infarct related coronary artery or its side branches with the following characteristics:

1. Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 0 flow for at least 90 days;
2. Satisfactory distal vessel visualization
3. CTO should be amenable to percutaneous treatment and must be located in a coronary vessel with a reference diameter of at least 2 millimeters.
4. CTO refractory to a minimum of 10 minutes of conventional guide wire attempt.
6. Body Mass Index (BMI) \< 40
7. Left ventricle ejection fraction \> 25%

For the purpose of this trial, a CTO is defined as a 100% luminal narrowing without antegrade flow or with antegrade or retrograde filling through collateral vessels.
