NCT02468960

Brief Summary

Study aim : To compare a novel strategy of lesion preparation with noncompliant balloons before implantation of BVS (Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold). Hypothesis: Predilatation with non-compliant balloons could facilitate optimal deployment of BVS. By achieving good scaffold apposition a need for post-dilatation could be significantly reduced. This is expected to result in better short- and long-term outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Scaffold apposition ratio in both groups (ratio of malapossition stents to total stents per cross-section

    Outcome will be analyzed by independent Angio CoreLab based on data recorded during index PCI procedure.

    Participants will be followed for the duration of index procedure, an expected average of 1 hour.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Procedural success defined as successful delivery of the scaffold

    Participants will be followed for the duration of index procedure, an expected average of 1 hour.

  • Need for post-dilatation after implantation of the scaffold

    Participants will be followed for the duration of index procedure, an expected average of 1 hour.

  • Scaffold apposition after post-dilatation

    Participants will be followed for the duration of index procedure, an expected average of 1 hour.

  • Frequency and total number of periprocedural complications: dissection, slow- or no flow, dissection requiring additional stent implantation,

    Participants will be followed for the duration of index procedure, an expected average of 1 hour.

Other Outcomes (4)

  • Number of patients with diagnosis of periprocedural myocardial infarction defined as 5x upper reference level elevation of high sensitive Troponin I (in patients with normal pre-procedural Troponin)

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 5 days.

  • Number of patients with diagnosis of in-stent restenosis requiring revascularization within 12 months post-procedure

    12 month folow up

  • Rate of stent thrombosis according the ARC criteria within 12 months post procedure

    12 month follow up

  • +1 more other outcomes
