Treatment of In-Stent Restenosis by Paclitaxel Coated PTCA Balloons (PACCOCATH - ISR I)
Coronary Restenosis
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Coronary Restenosis focused on measuring in stent restenosis, paclitaxel coated balloon catheter, paccocath, drug eluting balloon
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Age > 18 years Clinical evidence of stable or unstable angina or a positive functional study Single, restenotic lesion in a stented coronary artery (allowed are multiple lesions but only the target lesion is amenable for percutaneous intervention, i.e. no 'staged' procedures involving non-target lesions) Diameter stenosis > 70% (visual estimate) Stented segment length < 25 mm Vessel diameter => 2.5 mm Female patients can enter this study if they are post-menopausal for at least two years or have undergone hysterectomy or sterilization Signed patient informed consent form Patients and treating physicians agree that the patient will return for all required post procedure follow-up assessments as defined in the clinical protocol Exclusion Criteria: Left ventricular ejection fraction of < 30% Target lesion/vessel with any of the following characteristics: Clear angiographic calcification in the target lesion or greater than mild calcification in the proximal vessel (minimally radiopaque densities that are discrete and non-linear). Visible thrombus proximal to the lesion. Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, heparin, clopidogrel, abciximab, paclitaxel, or a sensitivity to contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated. Other medical illness (i.e. cancer, liver disease or congestive heart failure) that may require cytostatic or radiation therapy causing the subject to be non-compliant with the protocol, confound the data interpretation or is associated with limited life-expectancy (i.e., less than two years). Severe chronic renal insufficiency. Significant gastrointestinal (GI) bleed within the past six months. History of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or will refuse blood transfusions. Extensive peripheral vascular disease that precludes safe 6 French sheath insertion and/or requires additional anti-platelet and/or anti-coagulation treatment. Participating in another device or drug study within the last 6 months
