Prospective Safety and Effectiveness Study: VenaCure Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) 400 µm Fiber Procedure Kit for Treatment of Incompetent Perforator Veins

The VenaCure EVLT 400 µm Fiber Kit is currently marketed for the treatment of varicose veins.
AngioDynamics, Inc., the company that manufacturers the VenaCure device, is sponsoring this
study to assess the safety and effectiveness of the VenaCure EndoVenous Laser Treatment
(EVLT) 400 µm Fiber Kit for treatment of incompetent perforator veins (IPVs). The VenaCure
EVLT 400 µm Fiber Kit has not been previously studied by AngioDynamics for the ablation of
IPVs.

This is a single-arm, prospective, multicenter, non-blinded clinical trial. Study data will
be summarized and submitted to the FDA in a premarket notification once all treated subjects
have completed the 3 month visit. Longer term followup is being performed for publication
purposes.

Patients diagnosed with incompetent Perforator Veins (IPV's) and meet all inclusion and none
of the exclusion criteria will be eligible for this study.

INCLUSION CRITERIA

(e.g., warfarin, Q10 inhibitors or low molecular weight heparin) or has a history of
Deep Vein Thrombosis within the last 6 months or hypercoagulable state.

6. Has had prior venous procedures in the study limb within the last 30 days (including
but not limited to, thrombolysis / thrombectomy / stenting / ablation / phlebectomy /
