NCT05221931

Brief Summary

DCB-HBR trial is prospective, multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled, noninferiority trial. The aim of the study is to compare clinical outcomes of drug-coated balloon (DCB) with drug-eluting stent (DES) for treatment of de-novo coronary lesion in patients with high bleeding risk (HBR).

Study Arms (2)

DES group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will be randomized to either the DCB group or the DES group with 1:1 ratio during the index procedure after diagnostic angiography. In DES group, latest second-generation DES will be used (Ultimaster Tansei) during the index procedure

Procedure: Percutaneous coronary intervention

DCB group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be randomized to either the DCB group or the DES group with 1:1 ratio during the index procedure after diagnostic angiography. In DCB group, Agent (Boston Scientific, USA), Prevail (Medtronic, USA), or SeQuent Please, SeQuent Please NEO (B-Braun, Germany) will be used during the index procedure.

Procedure: Percutaneous coronary intervention

Interventions

1:1 randomization to DES (Ultimaster Tansei) or DCB (Agent \[Boston Scientific, USA\], Prevail \[Medtronic, USA\], or SeQuent Please, SeQuent Please NEO \[B-Braun, Germany\])

Eligibility Criteria

Age19 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subject must be at least 19 years of age
  • Subject who is able to understand risks, benefits and treatment alternatives and sign informed consent voluntarily.
  • Patients with at least one lesion with greater than 50% diameter stenosis or fractional flow reserve ≤0.80 requiring revascularization in de-novo coronary artery of reference vessel size ≥2.25 mm
  • Patients with high bleeding risk: one or more of the criteria listed (1) Adjunctive oral anticoagulation treatment planned to continue after PCI (2) Age ≥ 75 years old (3) Baseline Hemoglobin \<11 g/dl (or anemia requiring transfusion during the 4 weeks prior to randomization) (4) Any prior intra-cerebral bleeding (5) Stroke at any time or transient ischemic attack in the previous 6 months. (6) Hospital admission for bleeding during the prior 12 months (7) Non skin cancer diagnosed or treated \< 3 years (8) Planned daily NSAID (other than aspirin) or steroids for \>30 days after PCI (9) Planned surgery that would require interruption of DAPT (within next 12 months) (10) Renal failure defined as calculated creatinine clearance \<40 ml/min or on dialysis (11) Hematological disorders (platelet count \<100,000/mm3 or any coagulation disorder) (12) Severe chronic liver disease defined as patients who have developed any of the following: variceal hemorrhage, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy or jaundice (13) Expected non-compliance to prolonged DAPT for other medical reasons

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients unable to provide consent
  • Patients with known intolerance to aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitors, or components of drug-eluting stents
  • Patients with angiographic findings of (1) Left main coronary artery disease (2) In-stent restenosis is the cause of target lesion (3) Target lesion in bypass graft (4) True bifurcation lesion that requires upfront 2-stenting
  • Patients who have non-cardiac co-morbid conditions with life expectancy \<2 year
  • Patients who may result in protocol non-compliance (site investigator's medical judgment)
  • Patients with cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest
  • Patients with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction \<30%)
  • Patients with severe valvular heart disease requiring open heart surgery
  • Pregnant or lactating women
