NCT00828087

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, randomized controlled, single blind, two-arm, multi center clinical evaluation. A total of 1500 patients will be enrolled in the study. Patient randomization will be to one of the two treatment arms: Everolimus arm or Non drug eluting stent arm. The objective of this study is to assess the safety and performance of the Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System versus a modified cobalt chromium balloon expandable stent in the setting of primary percutaneous coronary intervention for treatment of patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients presenting with a ST-elevation myocardial infarction who must meet at least one of the following criteria
  • Patients presenting with a ST-elevation myocardial infarction \<12 hours after onset of symptoms who are treated with primary angioplasty + stent implantation
  • Cardiogenic shock.
  • Rescue PCI after failed thrombolysis.
  • PCI indicated early (\<24h) after effective thrombolysis following current ESC guidelines.
  • Patients presenting late ("latecomers") with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (\>12h-48h) after the onset of symptoms.
  • Written informed consent.
  • The patient or his/her family (in the event the patient can not be clinically available) accept clinical controls.
  • Angiographic:
  • Vessel size has to range between 2.25-4.0 mm by visual estimation to allow the implantation of currently available stents.

You may not qualify if:

  • Age \< 18 years.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Known intolerance to aspirin, clopidogrel, heparin, stainless steel, Everolimus, contrast material.
  • Patients with absolute indication of being chronic treated with acenocoumarol
  • Myocardial infarction due to a previously implanted stent thrombosis
  • Patients with myocardial infarction that will require elective surgical coronary revascularisation within a 1 year period (example: inferior MI with severe disease in left main with surgical indication).
