Study Arms (2)
Drug Coated Autoperfusion Balloon Dilatation Catheter(DCAB)
EXPERIMENTAL3 μg/mm² paclitaxel-coated drug-coated autoperfusion balloon dilatation catheter (DCAB). The DCAB features two radiopaque marker rings at the balloon shoulders for intravascular imaging and positioning, self-perfusion holes on the catheter shaft, and an additional radiopaque marker ring proximal to the perfusion holes to indicate their location. The catheter shaft is hydrophilically coated to facilitate blood flow through the perfusion holes when the guidewire is retracted. Preclinical studies show this design allows 15%-20% of arterial blood to reach the distal coronary artery.
Conventional Drug coated ballon(DCB)
ACTIVE COMPARATORBingo® PTCA Drug Delivery System: drug (paclitaxel) coated balloon (DCB) with concentration of 3 μg Paclitaxel per 1 mm2.
Interventions
In the experimental arm, under the assessment and guidance of IVUS-OCT, STEMI patients with successfully prepared lesions will be treated with a drug-coated autoperfusion balloon dilatation catheter (DCAB). Successful lesion preparation is defined as post-pretreatment residual stenosis ≤ 30%, no type C dissections, intravascular imaging confirming no significant residual plaque burden at the dissection site, no transverse expansion \> 60°, no longitudinal expansion \> 2 mm, no dissection involving the media or adventitia, and no location at the stent distal end. There should be no hematoma and no significant thrombus (TIMI thrombus burden grade ≤ 2). If the angiographic and intravascular imaging results after DCAB treatment are unsatisfactory, an emergency drug-eluting stent (DES) will be implanted.
In the control arm, under the assessment and guidance of IVUS-OCT, STEMI patients with successful lesion preparation (residual stenosis ≤ 30%, no type C dissections, no significant residual plaque burden, no dissection involving the media or adventitia, no transverse expansion \> 60°, no longitudinal expansion \> 2 mm, no location at the stent distal end, no hematoma, TIMI thrombus burden grade ≤ 2) will be treated with a conventional DCB coated with 3 μg/mm2 paclitaxel. If angiographic and intravascular imaging results are unsatisfactory, a bailout DES will be implanted.
