Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine whether scoring balloon (SCB) plus paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) is superior to PCB alone for the treatment of restenosis within "limus"-eluting stents (LES)
Evidence supporting use of bioabsorbable polymer drug eluting stents (BP-DES) is uncertain. Thus the investigators planned a meta-analysis to compare outcomes of BP-DES versus PP-DES in obstructive coronary artery disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether butylphthalide are effective for Preventing Restenosis after Intracranial and Extracranial Artery Stenting
BBK- 2 - study: STUDY-SUMMARY Background: The need for stenting of the main and side branch (double stenting) in the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesion primarily depends on the complexity of the bifurcation lesion. If the bifurcation lesion is very complex (Medina classification 111, severe stenosis of both branches, severe calcified lesion, long lesions etc.) double stenting may be the treatment of choice. When double stenting is required, the most frequently used stenting techniques are T-stenting and Culotte-stenting. It is still unclear, however, which double stent technique yields the best long-term outcome. Aim: This randomized study will compare the long-term safety and efficacy of T-stenting versus Culotte-stenting in the treatment of de-novo coronary bifurcation lesions with drug-eluting stents. Methods: Three-hundred patients in whom a double-stenting technique is intended for the treatment of a de-novo coronary bifurcation lesion will be randomly assigned to T-stenting or Culotte-stenting with an approved drug-eluting stent. Patients will undergo 9-month angiographic follow-up with quantitative coronary angiography. Clinical follow-up is planed at 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and 5 years. The primary study endpoint is the maximal percent diameter stenosis in the bifurcation lesion at 9 months. Secondary endpoints include binary restenosis (estimated by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA) analysis), Target Lesion Revascularisation (TLR), Freedom from Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) and the rate of stent thrombosis according to the definition of the Academic Research Consortium (ARC definition). The study will have 90% power to detect a 25% reduction in the primary endpoint at p < 0.05.
Different healing responses after treatment of bare metal stent restenosis with implantation of an everolimus-eluting Xience V stent (Abbott Vascular) versus use of a paclitaxel-eluting SeQuent Please balloon (BBraun): an optical coherence tomography study. A prospective, single-centre, randomized clinical trial with clinical, angiographic and OCT follow-up at 9 months.
A multicentric study will evaluate whether peri-procedural tight glycemic control during angioplasty revascularization for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) reduces circulating inflammatory cytokines and thrombus formation in hyperglycaemic patients. Moreover, the investigators will assess whether the tight glycemic control during the first month from coronary event reduces the incidence of coronary stent restenosis at 6-months from PCI.
The purpose of this randomized study is to determine which treatment option, either paclitaxel-eluting balloon, paclitaxel-eluting stent or plain balloon angioplasty is the most effective in the treatment of restenosis after implantation of "Limus"-eluting stents, (LES).
The use of DES have not diminished the need of improved treatment strategies , especially the treatment of bifurcation lesions still leave much to be clarified. Particularly, for bifurcation lesions where stenting the main branch could result in an obstruction of a vital side branch, many reports have been about using 2 drug-eluting stents. Resulting in less than favorable, target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates, with 10-15% for main branch and 11-40% for side branch. In Japan, the PERFECT multi-center registry evaluated outcomes of single stenting plus kissing balloon technique after Directional Coronary Atherectomy (DCA) removal of tissue plaques. TLR rates for both main branch and side branch were a satisfactory 1.3%. However, the DCA technique is mainly suitable for proximal coronary artery lesions, and takes skilled operators. For the treatment of relatively distal bifurcation lesions, where first POBA is performed, then the lesion is stented, followed by kissing balloon technique to fully expand the side branch, is considered a viable treatment. The Toyohashi Heart Center outcomes from August 2004 for this single stent and kissing ballooning technique, using the sirolimus-eluting stent on bifurcation lesions, achieved a satisfactory 5.2% TLR for both main and side branches, suggesting that using two stents may not be necessarily the ideal treatment. The paclitaxel-eluting stent is expected to become available in Japan from June 2007. This stent's cells can be expanded to a maximum of 3.5mm, which should provide a larger lumen access for side-branch treatment. As such, we developed this study to compare the outcomes of paclitaxel-eluting and sirolimus-eluting stents in bifurcation lesions that require side branch dilatation using the kissing ballooning technique.
Prospective clinical observational registry study including consecutive patients with clinical signs or symptoms due to in-stent restenosis (ISR) or definite (ARC criteria) stent thrombosis (ST). Study hypothesis: Initial Stent implantation quality (due to technique/problems) are possible major determinants of ST and ISR in real life practice. Both early, late, and very late ST, and ISR are important factors for long term outcome after initial stent implantation. Primary objective: - To elucidate the possible cause(s) of thrombosis or restenosis after stent implantation in real life practice by clinical, angiographic and IVUS evaluation. Secondary objective: - To describe the clinical manifestation [stable angina pectoris (AP), unstable AP, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), or ST-elevation MI] of the index event (inclusion). - To describe the characteristics of patient, lesion and procedure of the initial percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). - To describe the antithrombotic pharmacological therapy preceding the index event. - To describe clinical outcome (death, MI, revascularization, CCS angina class) following treatment of the index event during 12 month follow-up. - To describe safety of the IVUS procedure (product or procedural related complications/ malfunctions).
clinically relevant in stent restenosis occurs in 5-10% of the non-diabetic patients treated with a coronary bare metal stent. Recent research has identified endothelial progenitor cells as well as dendritic cells as components of neointima. Numerical and functional evaluation of endothelial progenitor and dendritic cells at the time of coronary stent implantation is assessed and the relation with clinical and/or angiographic restenosis at 6 months post-stent implantation is evaluated.
