Brief Summary
The FAME-II trial was a prospective, multicenter, multinational, multi-continental, randomized clinical trial with an 'all comers' design. The overall purpose of the FAME-II trial was to compare the clinical outcomes, safety and cost-effectiveness of FFR-guided PCI plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) versus OMT alone in patients with stable coronary artery disease and in whom both PCI and medical treatment can be considered on the basis of the presently existing scientific evidence. FAME-II was conducted from 2009 to 2012 and 1-year, 2-year and 5-year results have been published. The purpose of this 10-Year Follow-up is to evaluate the 10-year major adverse cardiac event rate (MACE, defined as all-cause death, documented myocardial infarction, unplanned hospitalization leading to urgent revascularization). Patients will have to sign a specific informed consent for the present 10-year follow-up. This study will be conducted for about approximately 6 months.

Eligibility Criteria
Patients that were enrolled in the original FAME2 study, i.e. consecutive patients with stable clinical condition and angiographically defined one-, two, or three-vessel coronary artery disease and amenable for PCI
You may qualify if:
- Patients with
- stable angina pectoris (Canadian Cardiovascular Society Class \[CCS\] 1, 2, 3)
- or, angina pectoris CCS class 4 subsequently stabilized medically (minimum 7 days) or,
- atypical chest pain or no chest pain but with documented silent ischemia on non-invasive testing.
- In whom at least one stenosis was present of at least 50% in one major native epicardial coronary artery with a diameter of at least 2.5 mm and supplying viable myocardium
- Eligible for PCI
- Signed written informed consent was obtained. Patients will have to sign a specific informed consent for the present 10-year follow-up.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients in whom the preferred treatment is CABG
- Patients with left main coronary artery disease requiring revascularization
- Patients with a recent (less than 1 WEEK) STEMI or Non-STEMI
- Prior CABG
- Contra-indication to dual antiplatelet therapy
- LVEF \< 30%
- Severe LV hypertrophy (defined as a septal wall thickness at echocardiography of more than 13 mm)
- Planned need for concomitant cardiac surgery (e.g., valve surgery or resection of aortic or left ventricular aneurysm etc.)
- Extremely tortuous or calcified coronary arteries precluding FFR measurements
- A life expectancy of less than 2 years
- Age under 21
- Pregnancy or intention to become pregnant during the course of the trial
- Refusal or inability to sign an informed consent. Mental condition (psychiatric or organ cerebral disease) rendering the subject unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the trial or mental retardation or language barrier such that the patient is unable to give informed consent
- Potential for non-compliance towards the requirements in the trial protocol (especially the medical treatment) or follow-up visits
- Participation or planned participation in another cardiovascular clinical trial before two year follow-up is completed
