About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the ZoMaxx Drug Eluting Coronary Stent System Compared to the TAXUS™ Express2 Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System in de Novo Coronary Artery Lesions

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the ZoMaxx drug-eluting stent in patients with blockage of native coronary arteries. The study is designed to demonstrate non-inferiority to the TAXUS Express2 Paclitaxel-Eluting Stent that has proven superior to bare metal stents and is a recognized standard of care.

Read the detailed description

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Europe as a whole, and while mortality rates for cardiovascular disease have decreased in most western European countries, due to expanded use of prevention strategies and better treatment, coronary heart disease mortality in the middle age groups is increasing rapidly in most of the countries in Eastern Europe. The number of procedures performed to treat cardiovascular disease in Europe is constantly increasing, although different types of procedures are exhibiting different trends. Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) procedures, for example, totaled 430,000 in the European Union (15 countries) and 520,000 in Europe as a whole (33 countries) in 2000, as reported by the Euro Heart Survey, and growth is continuing at a rate of more than 20% per year. Despite the effectiveness of intracoronary stents in maintaining a larger luminal diameter as compared to angioplasty alone, 15 - 35% of in-stent restenosis occurs within 6 to 9 months after stent placement. While stents can reduce restenosis by blocking vascular recoil and remodeling, mechanical intervention alone is incapable of treating the biological problem of neointimal hyperplasia. Various approaches have been used to treat in-stent restenosis, including balloon angioplasty, repeat stenting, rotational and directional atherectomy, laser and local use of radiation at the time of stenting (brachytherapy). However, these techniques add complexity to the interventional procedure and have not had documented success in preventing restenosis. Drug-eluting stents (DES) using antiproliferative agents delivered via a polymer based stent platform have shown significant success in the reduction of restenosis in de novo lesions over the traditional bare metal stents in randomized clinical trials. Local delivery of the pharmacological agent allows for controlled delivery of high drug concentrations to the targeted tissue while maximizing systemic drug effects. The ZoMaxx I Trial is a study of the ZoMaxx Drug Eluting Coronary Stent System (ZoMaxx DES) to evaluate the potential benefits of the local application of the zotarolimus drug in combination with a phosphorylcholine (PC)-coated tri-metal stent.

ZoMaxx™ Drug-Eluting Stent System is an Investigational device. Limited by Federal (U.S.) law to investigational use only.

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Target Lesion revascularization(TLR)

    Measured: at 9 months

  2. Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR)

    Measured: at 9 months

  3. Target Vessel Failure

    Measured: at 9 months

  4. Major Adverse Cardiac Events(MACE) defined as Cardiac Death, MI( Q-wave and non Q-wave) or TVR

    Measured: at 30 days, 6,9,12 months and anually through 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ZoMaxx™ Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent System and TAXUS™ EXPRESS2™ Paclitaxel Eluting Coronary Stent System in people with Coronary Disease and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 29 sites in 10 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Germany, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Australia and 5 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary end-point is in-segment late-loss at 9 months (as measured by QCA), defined as the difference between the post-procedure minimal lumen diameter (MLD) and the follow-up angiography MLD. (time frame: 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00148356, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2011.
