IN.PACT Admiral Drug-Coated Balloon

Paclitaxel-coated Balloon

  • IN.PACT Admiral Drug-Coated Balloon Catheter

Overview

Maintain long-term vessel patency with the IN.PACT™ Admiral™ drug-coated balloon (DCB), which provides durable, consistent, and safe outcomes across multiple clinical trials, as well as across complex patient and lesion types. With more than 3,500 patients enrolled in 21 clinical studies and 200,000+ patients treated, the IN.PACT Admiral balloon is the market-leading DCB for treatment of femoropopliteal disease with 75% of patients reintervention-free at 5 years.1 This matters now more than ever.†

Indications

Please note the Instructions for Use were updated recently to include enhanced information on paclitaxel safety. Please follow the “indications, safety, and warnings” link at the top of this page for more information.

The IN.PACT Admiral paclitaxel-coated PTA balloon catheter is indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, after appropriate vessel preparation, of de novo, restenotic, or in-stent restenotic lesions with up to 360 mm in superficial femoral or popliteal arteries with reference vessel diameters of 4–7 mm.

Product Details

The IN.PACT Admiral DCB is a clinically proven, primary endovascular therapy that treats femoropopliteal disease, reduces interventions, and preserves future treatment options. 

IN.PACT Admiral DCB, with sustained drug release up to 180 days,2 has the:

  • Highest patency benefit through 3 years‡3
  • Lowest CD-TLR rates and lowest mortality through 5 years1,4
  • Most publications for a DCB§

HOW IT WORKS

DURATION OF PACLITAXEL IN TISSUE

Competitive comparison showing the duration of paclitaxel in tissue after an index procedure with IN.PACT Admiral DCB, Ranger DCB, Lutonix DCB and Stellarex DCB

Only the IN.PACT Admiral DCB releases drug into the tissue through the restenotic window.

DCB therapies have been around since 2001, when Dr. Bruno Scheller and Dr. Ulrich Speck envisioned combining mechanical dilatation from PTA with restenosis inhibition from a drug into a single device.
