Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

Randomized, single-blind, single-center, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare target lesion failure (TLF) at 12 months in high bleeding risk patients who underwent elective coronary percutaneous intervention with a zotarolimus eluting stent versus a sirolimus eluting stent and short Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT).

Left internal thoracic artery (LITA) has been acknowledged as the first graft of choice for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, it is still not conclusive which one is the best second graft of choice among right internal thoracic artery, radial artery, right gastroepiploic artery, saphenous vein, and etc., as well as its configuration for CABG. In our institution, saphenous vein has been primarily used for the second graft and we have harvested it with 'No touch technique'. We have been demonstrated the excellent long-term patency of this 'No touch saphenous vein' in many studies. However, it is still unknown which configuration is the better strategy for the saphenous vein as a Y-composite graft based on the left internal thoracic artery versus an aortocoronary conduit. Thus, we aimed to evaluate morphologic change of saphenous vein graft by 1-year intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) study and angiographic patency results between Y-composite graft and aortocoronary conduit.

We will establish a cohort of 570 symptomatic chronic coronary syndrome patients undergoing 15O-water PET and assess their symptoms through repeated questionnaires. Two hundred patients with abnormal perfusion will be randomized to immediate or delayed referral to invasive coronary angiography with concomitant optimization of guideline-directed medical therapy with repeated 15O-water PET and questionnaires at 3 and 6 months. The primary objective is to compare the potential benefit of early invasive coronary angiography (ICA) versus guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) on symptomatic relief defined as freedom of angina after 3 months following a positive [15O]H2O cardiac PET/CT in patients with symptomatic chronic coronary syndrome.

The objective of this randomized control trial is to gain clinical insight on the use of POT PTCA balloon dilatation catheter for the optimal dilation after drug-eluting stent implantation.

Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR), a combination of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), has emerged as an alternative treatment for multivessel coronary artery disease patients. However, the ideal sequence (PCI or CABG) is unclear. The overall aim of this study is to investigate the best sequence within hybrid coronary revascularization using endoscopic coronary bypass grafting (i.e., first CABG then PCI versus first PCI then CABG)

Post Market study of the Fantom Sirolimus-Eluting Bioresorbable Coronary Scaffold

Randomized, controlled, blind, single-center and non-inferiority clinical trial to compare the target lesion failure (TLF) at 12 months in patients with diabetes mellitus who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with an Orsiro stent vs. Abluminus stent.

PIONEER-IV is a prospective, single-blind (patient), randomized, 1:1, controlled, multi-center study comparing clinical outcomes between angiography-derived physiology guidance to LRDP and usual care in an all-comers patient population (including patients with high bleeding risk, HBR) undergoing PCI with unrestrictive use of the HT Supreme sirolimus-eluting stent. Patients will be randomized to either angio-based physiology guidance (QFR) or local routine diagnostic procedure (LRDP) and usual care. Patients will be treated with 1-year P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after 1-month of dual-antiplatelet therapy in approximately 2540 (2*1270) patients. All patients (both cohorts) must receive dual anti-platelet therapy, being aspirin (ASA) and ticagrelor for 1 month, followed by 11 months of ticagrelor only (i.e. monotherapy). At 1 year, ticagrelor monotherapy is replaced by aspirin monotherapy or left to the discretion of the operator.

An investigator-initiated, randomized, multicenter, two-arm, open-label study of consecutive patients presenting with STEMI and MVD Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the difference in all-cause mortality after in-hospital staged PCI versus out-hospital staged PCI for ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction （STEMI）patients with multi-vessel Disease（MVD） Background: In primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI with MVD, complete revascularization has proved to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and myocardial infarction. However, a strategy of nonculprit-vessel PCI with the goal of complete revascularization still not to be confirmed. Compare with in-hospital staged PCI, out-hospital PCI as a strategy of nonculprit-vessel PCI for STEMI patients with MVD might have be beneficial results.

Authors hypothesize that "no-touch" saphenous vein as I graft is superior over conventional "no-touch" saphenous vein as free graft in the incidence of graft patency.
