NCT01623180

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that a BioFreedom™ Drug Coated Stent is non-inferior to a bare metal stent at one year as measured by the composite safety endpoint of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and definite/probable stent thrombosis, and that its efficacy is superior to a bare metal stent as measured by clinically driven TLR at one year.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Composite Safety Endpoint

    Composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction and definite/probable stent thrombosis at one year

    one year

  • Primary Efficacy Endpoint

    The incidence of clinically driven target lesion revascularization

    one year

Study Arms (2)

BioFreedom™ Drug Coated Stent (DCS)

EXPERIMENTAL

BA9 drug coated stent implantation for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with de novo lesions in native coronary arteries with a reference vessel diameter between 2.25 mm and 4.0 mm.

Device: Biofreedom™ Drug Coated Stent (DCS)

Gazelle™ Bare Metal Coronary Stent (BMS)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

GAZELLE™ bare metal stent implantation for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with de novo lesions in native coronary arteries with a reference vessel diameter between 2.25 and 4.0 mm.

Device: Gazelle™ Bare Metal Coronary Stent (BMS)

Interventions

Biofreedom DCS implantation in high risk bleeding patients followed by 1 month DAPT

Also known as: Drug coated stent
BioFreedom™ Drug Coated Stent (DCS)

Gazelle BMS implantation in high risk bleeding patients followed by 1 month DAPT

Gazelle™ Bare Metal Coronary Stent (BMS)

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Any indication for PCI-S in patients deemed at high risk for bleeding and candidates for 1 month DAPT. This includes candidates with stable angina, silent ischemia, ACS (STEMI and non-STEMI), non-native lesions and in-stent restenosis. Patients must provide written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnancy
  • Patients expected not to comply with 1 month DAPT
  • Patients requiring a planned staged PCI procedure more than one week after the index procedure
  • Procedure planned to require non-study stents, or stand alone POBA or stand-alone atherectomy
  • Reference vessel diameter \<2.25 - \>4.0mm
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Compliance with long-term single anti-platelet therapy unlikely
  • A known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, clopidogrel (or prasugrel, or ticagrelor if applicable), stainless steel, Biolimus A9 or a sensitivity to contrast media, which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
  • Participation in another clinical trial (12 months after index procedure).
