Coronary Artery Disease
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Coronary Artery Disease
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Men or women ≥18 years
- Typical chest pain or objective evidence of myocardial ischemia suitable for PCI
- Significant de novo coronary artery lesions suitable for DES implantation
- Patients who underwent optimized stent implantation either by IVUS or OCT
- The patient or guardian agrees to the study protocol and the schedule of clinical follow-up, and provides informed, written consent, as approved by the appropriate Institutional Review Board/Ethical Committee of the respective clinical site
Exclusion Criteria:
Angiographic exclusion criteria: any of the followings 1. Bypass graft lesions 2. Lesions in which impaired delivery of imaging catheters is expected:
- Extreme angulation (≥90°) proximal to or within the target lesion.
- Excessive tortuosity (≥ two 45° angles) proximal to or within the target lesion.
- Heavy calcification proximal to or within the target lesion.
- In-stent restenosis
- Hypersensitivity or contraindication to device material and its degradants and cobalt, chromium, nickel, platinum, tungsten, acrylic and fluoro polymers that cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
- Persistent thrombocytopenia (platelet count <80,000/l)
- Any history of hemorrhagic stroke or intracranial hemorrhage / TIA or ischemic stroke within the past 6 months
- A known intolerance or hypersensitivity to a study drug (aspirin, clopidogrel or ticagrelor) or heparin
- Patients requiring long-term oral anticoagulants or cilostazol
- Any surgery requiring general anesthesia or discontinuation of aspirin and/or an ADP antagonist is planned within 12 months after the procedure.
- A diagnosis of cancer (other than superficial squamous or basal cell skin cancer) in the past 3 years or current treatment for the active cancer.
- Any clinically significant abnormality identified at the screening visit, physical examination, laboratory tests, or electrocardiogram which, in the judgment of the Investigator, would preclude safe completion of the study.
- History of liver cirrhosis (Child-Pugh B or C) or biliary tract obstruction
- Life expectancy < 1 years for any non-cardiac or cardiac causes
- Cardiogenic shock at the index admission
- Patient's pregnant or breast-feeding
- Active bleeding or extreme-risk for major bleeding (e.g. active peptic ulcer disease, gastrointestinal pathology with a high risk for bleeding, malignancies with a high risk for bleeding)
- Unwillingness or inability to comply with the procedures described in this protocol.

After PCI, patients are prescribed aspirin at a daily dose of 100 mg PO plus a P2Y12 inhibitor [clopidogrel or ticagrelor or prasugrel according to the clinical diagnosis] for 12 months after the index PCI.
The antiplatelet regimens post-PCI are 1-month DAPT (aspirin plus clopidogrel) followed by 11-months clopidogrel alone for CCS, and 3-months DAPT (aspirin plus P2Y12 inhibitor [ticagrelor, prasugrel]) followed by 9-months P2Y12 inhibitor alone for ACS.
