Conventional balloon predilation

Scoring balloon predilation

Arm Description

the target lesion can be prepared according to standard clinical practice using SC balloons sized 0.8-1:1. Stenting using a drug-eluting stent (DES) is performed and the inflation pressure for delivery is noted, as well as the expected balloon diameter at that pressure. 2 enhanced stent imaging acquisitions (StentBoost or equivalent depending on the X-ray system used), are acquired in 2 orthogonal views. Post dilatation can be performed at operator discretion followed by a final acquisition of 2 similar orthogonal views with enhanced stent imaging. Intravascular imaging is left to the operator's discretion and is encouraged

the target lesion must be prepared with a scoring balloon (SC) inflated 3 times at nominal pressure. To allow the scoring balloon to cross the lesion, it might be necessary to predilate with a small compliant balloon. The size of the scoring balloon to be used for is based on the size of the vessel. Stenting using a DES is performed and the inflation pressure for delivery is noted, as well as the expected balloon diameter at that pressure. 2 enhanced stent imaging acquisitions (StentBoost or equivalent depending on the X-ray system used), are acquired in 2 orthogonal views. Post dilatation can be performed at operator discretion followed by a final acquisition of 2 similar orthogonal views with enhanced stent imaging. Intravascular imaging is left to the operator's discretion and is encouraged

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Stent expansion in calcified lesions assessed by stent diameter calculation using quantitative and intravascular analysis after lesion preparation using a scoring balloon is superior to conventional lesion preparation
The measure of stent expansion in calcified coronary lesions as assessed by quantitative coronary angiography, enhanced stent imaging and intravascular ultrasound after lesion preparation using the novel scoring semi-compliant and noncompliant balloons are superior (p<0.05) to semi compliant and non-compliant balloons.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Rate of successful predilatation of calcified lesions of a scoring semi-compliant/non-compliant balloon and semi-compliant (SC)/ non-compliant (NC) balloon
Rate of residual under-expansion of stent after post-dilatation with a non-compliant balloon
Rate of procedural complication (composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, coronary artery perforation and cardiac tamponade) of a scoring balloon and a SC/NC balloon followed by stenting.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Stent under-expansion during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the suboptimal results associated with a higher risk of restenosis and thrombosis. In order to obtain an optimal stent expansion, especially in lesions with calcific or fibrotic plaque, the appropriate lesion preparation before stent implantation is a crucial phase. For this, different devices are used in everyday practices, including non-compliant balloon (NC), scoring / cutting balloons or rotational atherectomy; however, their effectiveness depends on the experience and skill of the operator. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, efficacy and safety of a novel scoring balloon intended to treat calcific or fibrotic plaque of a coronary lesion
