Reverse T-stenting & Minimal Protrusion With External Minicrush for

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The Reverse T-stenting And Minimal Protrusion (Reverse TAP) is an up-front 2-stent technique that treats complex coronary bifurcation. Compared to crush techniques, it does not require crushing of the side branch stent but only minimal protrusion of the side branch stent before main vessel stenting. Nowadays, no studies compare the Reverse-TAP and the External Minicrush in treating complex coronary bifurcation, so eventually, procedural, clinical and safety differences remain unknown.

Clinical Trial Description

According to DEFINITION criteria, PCI of the complex coronary bifurcation with up-front two stent techniques is associated with lower target vessel revascularisation (TVR) than Provisional Stenting. The Double-Kissing Crush stenting (DK-Crush) has been tested with the Culotte and the Classic Crush techniques in the unprotected left main disease (ULMD) and in no-ULMD setting, respectively, showing better clinical outcomes. However, due to its technical complexity and simultaneous improvement of the Classic Crush technique in the External Minicrush, the latter has become the most used technique in the clinical practice in treating complex coronary bifurcation. The DK-Crush technique has never been tested with the External Minicrush, leaving the operators to choose one or the other according to their experience and preferences. The Reverse T-stenting, And Minimal Protrusion (Reverse TAP) is an up-front 2-stent technique that treats complex coronary bifurcation. Compared to crush techniques, it does not require crushing of the side branch stent but only minimal protrusion of the side branch stent before main vessel stenting. Nowadays, studies need to compare the Reverse-TAP and the External Minicrush in treating complex coronary bifurcation, so eventually, procedural, clinical and safety differences remain unknown. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
