study within 12 months after the index procedure

12 months after the index procedure. (Women of child-bearing potential who are
sexually active must agree to use a reliable method of contraception from the time of
screening through 12 months after the index procedure)
- Subject is a woman who is pregnant or nursing (A pregnancy test must be performed
within 7 days prior to the index procedure in women of child-bearing potential)
- Planned treatment of more than 1 target lesion and 1 non-target lesion (see below
"Multiple Interventions During Index Procedure")
- Planned treatment of the target lesion with more than 1 scaffold
- Target lesion is located in the left main
- Target lesion is located within 3mm of the origin of the left anterior descending
(LAD) coronary artery, left circumflex (LCX) coronary artery or right coronary artery
(RCA)
- Target lesion is located within a saphenous vein graft or arterial graft or will be
accessed via a saphenous vein graft or an arterial graft
- Target lesion involves a side branch >2.0mm in diameter
- Target lesion involves a clinically significant side branch <2.0 mm in diameter that
has a clinically significant stenosis at the ostium.
