NCT00297661

Brief Summary

Context: Sirolimus-eluting stents and paclitaxel-eluting stents, as compared with bare-metal stents, reduce the risk of restenosis. It is unclear whether there are differences in safety and efficacy between the two types of drug-eluting stents. Objective: To determine differences in safety and efficacy between sirolimus and paclitaxel eluting stents.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Major adverse cardiac events at nine months (composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction or ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Clinical: Ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization, target-vessel revascularization, and target-vessel failure (composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction or ischemia-driven target-vessel revascularization)

  • Angiographic: In-segment late luminal loss

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with either stable angina or an acute coronary syndrome were eligible to participate if they had at least one lesion with stenosis of at least 50 percent in a vessel with a reference diameter between 2.25 and 4.00 mm that was suitable for stent implantation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Allergy to antiplatelet drugs, heparin, stainless steel, contrast agents, sirolimus, or paclitaxel; participation in another coronary-device study; and terminal illness.
