Local Delivery of Paclitaxel Via the TAPAS Catheter to Prevent Restenosis From Percutaneous Femoropopliteal Intervention

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of administering intra-arterial paclitaxel in the femoropopliteal arteries via the TAPAS catheter following percutaneous revascularization to prevent restenosis.
