Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

[The Purpose of the Clinical Study] The purpose of this randomized comparison study is to compare the 1-stent strategy with a drug-eluting balloon and the 2-stent strategy in patients with non-LM coronary true-bifurcation lesions. [Hypothesis] In this study, the researchers intend to verify the hypothesis that the 1-stent strategy with a drug-eluting balloon is non-inferior to the 2-stent strategy in terms of target lesion failures (cardiac death, target vessel MI, or target vessel revascularization).

Multivessel TALENT is a prospective, randomized, multi-center study comparing clinical outcomes between SUPRAFLEX Cruz and SYNERGY in approximately 1550 patients with de-novo three vessel disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients will be treated according to "state of art PCI"; not only treatment strategies based on the latest ESC guideline, such as SYNTAX Score II recommendation, Heart Team discussion, post-procedure intravascular imaging optimization, cholesterol reduction by statin or PCSK-9 inhibitor, but also exploratory treatment strategies based on the latest evidence, such as physiological assessment using quantitative flow ratio and prasugrel monotherapy following 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy after PCI.

Multi-centre, randomised clinical trial with anticipated 17 European centres: in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and UK. Patients with a dysfunctional bypass graft with a clinical indication for revascularization will be randomized to either PCI of the native vessel or PCI of the dysfunctional venous bypass graft. 584 patients with a a clinical indication for percutaneous coronary intervention and a dysfunctional graft on the target vesselional venous bypass graft are planned to be enrolled during 3 years.Study objectives: to investigate the clinical and angiographic outcome of native vessel PCI compared to PCI of venous bypass graft in patients with a dysfunctional venous bypass graft with a clinical indication for revascularization. 1 year and 5 years, follow-up will be performed by means of a telephonic visit. After 3 years patients will be admitted to undergo a control invasive angiography.The CT-substudy and the PROCTOR registry is planned to be conducted too.

Randomized, open-label, single-center, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare late lumen loss (LLL) at 12 months in Tunisian population undergoing coronary percutaneous intervention between Drug Eluting Balloon treated group and Everolimus platinum chrome stent treated group.

The purpose of this study is to compare DCB with DES in stable CAD or ACS patients who are at high risk of bleeding. The hypothesis of the DEBATE trial is that the strategy using DCB and a shorter DAPT regimen is non-inferior to the treatment using DES and longer DAPT duration on patients with high bleeding risk. If non-inferiority is shown, the superiority of the DCB strategy over DES strategy will be tested.

The objective of the study is to establish a de-scaling strategy of P2Y12 inhibitors (P2Y12 i) with a decrease in hemorrhagic events without increasing ischemic complications based on a Platelet Function Test (PFT).

This study is a multicentre, randomized controlled trial of ivabradine versus placebo.

MICS CABG (Minimally invasive coronary surgery), where coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is completed through a small incision over the left chest, has evolved to become a safe and less invasive alternative to conventional sternotomy CABG. Several observational studies have suggested significantly shorter time to return to physical activity for MICS CABG patients compared to sternotomy CABG patients. A randomized study is warranted to validate these findings, provide higher level of evidence, and potentially lead to changes in practice. The MIST Trial is a multi-centre, prospective, open label, randomized control trial comparing quality of life and recovery in the early post-operative period, between patients undergoing MICS CABG versus patients undergoing sternotomy CABG. Patients referred for isolated CABG for multi-vessel coronary artery disease and deemed technically suitable for sternotomy CABG as well as for MICS CABG are considered for enrollment into the trial. Quality of life questionnaires (The SF-36, Seattle Angina Questionnaire and EQ-5D-5L) will be used to assess the quality of life and recovery in patients undergoing sternotomy CABG or MICS CABG at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow up.

Different trials have shown that fractional flow reserve (FFR) could successfully guide revascularization in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It is conceivable that a similar revascularization guidance could be useful also for surgical revascularization i.e. coronary by-pass graft (CABG). Experience learns that grafts placed on vessels with hemodynamically non-significant stenosis often occlude due to competitive antegrade flow. Resting full-cycle Flow Ratio (RFR) is a measurement performed to evaluate the hemodynamic severity of coronary stenosis. Differently from FFR which is a measurement performed in maximal hyperemia, the RFR is a measurement that is performed in rest and therefore may predict better than FFR the baseline equilibriums that could lead to graft failure, while it has similar capacity to identify hemodynamically significant stenosis as FFR. It is unknown whether RFR guided CABG revascularization is superior as compared to angiography alone.

This study is designed to investigate whether drug-coated balloon (DCB) compared to conventional balloon angioplasty for side branch after provisional stenting will lead to lower rates of the composite endpoint of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) at 12 months. The individual components of MACE include cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), or target lesion revascularization (TLR). True bifurcation lesions were defined according to Medina classification.
