- Percentage of Participants With Target Lesion Primary Patency (TLPP) [ Time Frame: 6 Months ]TLPP is defined as the interval following index procedure intervention until clinically driven reintervention of the target lesion or access thrombosis.
- Percentage of Participants With No Primary Safety Events [ Time Frame: 30 days ]Primary safety events include any serious adverse event(s) involving the AV access circuit through 30 days
- Percentage of Participants With Target Lesion Primary Patency [ Time Frame: 12, 18, 24 Months ]TLPP is defined as the interval following index procedure intervention until clinically driven reintervention of the target lesion or access thrombosis.
- Number of re-interventions required to maintain target lesion patency [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Clinically driven reintervention is defined as a lesion that has ≥ 50% stenosis and at least one clinical, physiological or hemodynamic abnormality attributable to the stenosis defined in the K/DOQI guidelines.
- Percentage of Participants With Access Circuit Primary Patency (ACPP) [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Access circuit is defined as the area from the AV access anastomosis to the superior vena cava-right atrial junction.
- Number of re-interventions required to maintain access circuit patency [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Clinically driven reintervention is defined as a lesion that has ≥ 50% stenosis and at least one clinical, physiological or hemodynamic abnormality attributable to the stenosis defined in the K/DOQI guidelines.
- Percentage of Participants With Device, Procedural, and Clinical Success [ Time Frame: 24 Months ]
Device Success: Successful delivery to the target lesion, deployment, and retrieval at index procedure.
Procedural Success: At least one indicator of hemodynamic success (e.g., physical examination with restoration of a thrill, direct measurement of flow) in the absence of peri-procedural (index procedure and through hospital stay) Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADEs).
Clinical Success: The resumption of dialysis for at least one session after the index procedure.
- Percentage of Participants With Abandonment of Permanent Access in the Index Extremity [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]The arteriovenous fistula / access circuit is considered abandoned when it is no longer being used for dialysis because the access was not functioning.
- Percentage of Participants With Secondary Patency of the Access Circuit [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Survival of patency of access circuit from the time of intervention until access abandonment or achievement of a censored event (death, transfer to another hemodialysis unit, transfer to peritoneal dialysis, transplantation, and end of study period), and includes all surgical and endovascular interventions.
- Time to loss of target lesion secondary patency following DCB intervention [ Time Frame: 24 Months ]Time between first reintervention with the DCB to the next loss of patency
- Percentage of Participants With Freedom from any Serious Adverse Event(s) Involving the AV Access Circuit [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Safety events include any serious adverse event(s) involving the AV access circuit
- Percentage of Participants With Device and Procedure Related Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 6, 12, 18, 24 Months ]Freedom from device-related or procedure-related serious adverse events
- Vital status of participants [ Time Frame: 36, 48, and 60 Months ]All cause death

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding female ≥18 years of age
- Subject is willing to provide informed consent, and is willing to comply with the protocol-required follow up visits
- Target lesion must be a mature arteriovenous fistula located in the arm presenting with any clinical, physiological or hemodynamic abnormalities warranting angiographic imaging as defined in the K/DOQI guidelines
- Subject has a target lesion that can be treated with available LUTONIX DCB according to the Instructions For Use (IFU)
- Venous stenosis of an AV fistula in which the target lesion is located from the anastomosis to the axillosubclavian junction, as defined by insertion of the cephalic vein
-
Successful pre-dilation of the target lesion with an uncoated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloon defined as:
- No clinically significant dissection;
- No extravasation requiring treatment;
- Residual stenosis ≤30% by angiographic measurement;
- Ability to completely efface the waist using the pre-dilation balloon.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject is currently participating in an investigational drug, biologic, or device study, or previous enrollment in this study
- Subject has a non-controllable allergy to contrast
- Subject has another medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may confound the data interpretation or is associated with a life expectancy insufficient to allow for completion of subject study procedure and follow up
- Target lesion is located central to the axillosubclavian junction
- A thrombosed access or an access with a thrombosis treated ≤7 days before to the index procedure
- Prior surgical interventions of the access site ≤30 days before the index procedure
- Target lesion is located within a bare metal or covered stent
