Brief Summary

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the cornerstone of the care of intermediate and high-risk non ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE ACS). Revascularization reduces the rate of cardiovascular death and recurrent myocardial infarction in this clinical setting. The recommendation regarding the timing of intervention in this clinical setting is derived from old trials and has a weak level of evidence. In fact, there are no conclusive randomized trials in the contemporary era providing guidance on the optimal timing of intervention. In addition, the optimal timing of this critical intervention has not been studied since the development of new P2Y12-ADP receptor antagonists and the controversy surrounding the use of pretreatment with a P2Y12-ADP receptor antagonist before intervention. Early intervention in intermediate and high-risk non ST-elevation ACS is not well validated to date. In addition, the recent changes in the use of pretreatment with P2Y12-ADP receptor antagonists may impact on the potential benefit of an early intervention. Based on these evidences, we hypothesize that with the current protocols of care without pretreatment with a P2Y12-ADP receptor antagonist, an early PCI (\<2 hours) would be superior to a delayed (between 12 to 72 hours) PCI in the setting of intermediate or high-risk non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome to prevent cardiovascular death and ischemic recurrences.

You may qualify if:

  • Must not be of child-bearing potential (1 year post-menopausal, contraceptive use or surgically sterile);
  • Subject with a non-ST-segment elevation ACS defined by the presence of at least 2 of the following criteria: symptoms of myocardial ischemia, electrocardiographic ST-segment abnormalities (depression or transient elevation of at least 0.1 mV) or T-wave inversion in at least in 2 contiguous leads, or an elevated cardiac troponin value (above the upper limit of normal) ;
  • Subject requiring intervention according to physician's judgment including the following criteria subject with one of the following risk factor defining intermediate and high risk ACS: diabetes mellitus, kidney failure, reduced LVEF, early post infarction angina, recent PCI, prior CABG or a GRACE risk score \>109, recurrent symptoms or ischaemia on non-invasive testing (2);

  • Present with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at the time of entry or randomization into the study defined as follows:
  • ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is defined as a history of chest discomfort or ischemic symptoms of \>20 minutes duration at rest ≤14 days prior to entry into the study with one of the following present on at least one ECG prior to randomization:
  • ST-segment elevation ≥1 mm in two or more contiguous ECG leads.
  • New or presumably new left bundle branch block (LBBB).
  • ST-segment depression ≥1 mm in two anterior precordial leads (V1 through V4) with clinical history and evidence suggestive of true posterior infarction.
  • +2 more criteria
