HARMONEE - Japan-USA Harmonized Assessment by Randomized, Multi-Center Study of OrbusNEich's Combo StEnt — HARMONEE  

Coronary Arteriosclerosis Clinical Trial

Official title: Japan-USA Harmonized Assessment by Randomized, Multi-Center Study of OrbusNEich's Combo StEnt (Japan-USA HARMONEE): Assessment of a Novel DES Platform For Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization in Patients With Ischemic Coronary Disease and NSTEMI Acute Coronary Syndrome

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a multi-center, single-blind, randomized, active-controlled, clinical trial in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) subjects. Subjects will be randomized to receive the Combo stent as the investigational treatment arm or an Everolimus Eluting Stent (EES) as the active-control arm.

Clinical Trial Description

Up to 50 sites are proposed in Japan and the United States to enroll 286 subjects (271 evaluable) in each of 2 arms, for a total sample size of 572 subjects (542 evaluable) who are admitted to the hospital for a planned (elective and urgent) percutaneous coronary artery intervention procedure.

After stent implantation, subjects will be contacted for follow-up at 30 days; 6 months; and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years. At 12 months a clinical evaluation will be completed before cardiac catheterization and angiographic assessment.

Rationale: This study is intended to demonstrate that the Combo stent platform shows superiority to an imputed Bare Metal Stent (BMS) performance goal, noninferior effectiveness and safety vs best-in-class second-generation everolimus-eluting stent (EES) (Xience V, Xience Prime, Xience Xpedition stents; [Abbott Vascular/Abbott Vascular Japan]), and evidence of mechanistic activity of the anti-CD34-Ab endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture technology with healthy level of intimal tissue coverage superior to that of the best-in-class EES.

To ensure the robustness and interpretability of results, the current proposal includes a number of unique design features:

• Largest randomized Drug-Eluting Stent (DES) study ever performed in Japan

• Enriched population, including stabilized Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) subjects with greater likelihood of plaque rupture associated with their clinical syndromes

• Collaboration between with Japan and the United States as a "Proof of Concept" program under the auspices of the Harmonization by Doing Initiative, Working Group 1 (WG 1), including concomitant enrollment in U.S.A. sites as an FDA-approved Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study

• Head-to-head randomization against state-of-the-art EES platform control, analyzed for clinical noninferiority

• Statistical analysis vs imputed BMS analyzed for clinical superiority

• Fractional flow reserve (FFR) follow-up of 100% of subjects enrolled, providing clinically relevant physiologic assessment of all subjects for 1 year ischemia-driven Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR) analysis

• Mechanistic Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging observations in 140 subjects using 6 French catheters as follows:

• Cohort A (30 subjects, 1:1 Combo and EES): Mechanistic imaging observations to provide serial 6 month and 1 year OCT evaluation of healthy intimal tissue coverage, intracoronary thrombosis, and stent malapposition and quantitative coronary angiographic (QCA) analysis to assess 1 year late loss.

• Cohort B (110 subjects, 1:1 Combo and EES): Mechanistic imaging observations to assess 1 year OCT evaluation of healthy intimal tissue coverage, intracoronary thrombosis, and stent malapposition, and QCA analysis to assess 1 year late loss. Combined with the 12 month imaging of Cohort A, this study will provide OCT and QCA observations at 1 year in 140 patients, half with Combo and half with EES.

• Cohort C: 432 subjects (216 subjects per arm) will undergo all clinical follow-up assessments with FFR and angiographic assessments at 12 months. Cohort C will be the last cohort to enroll.

• In the 110 subjects in Cohort B, 30 day and 1 year human antimurine antibody (HAMA) titers will also be collected. ;
