About this study

Official title: Multi-Center, Single-Blind, Two-Arm, Randomized, Controlled, Non Inferiority Trial of the Conor CoStar Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System vs the TAXUS DES in Patients With De Novo Lesions of the Native Coronary Arteries

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational stent CoStar™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent- a reservoir based DES system in comparison to a surface coated DES stent (TAXUS™ Express2™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent) in the treatment of single-vessel (one blood vessel) and multi-vessel (two or three blood vessels) coronary artery disease.

Read the detailed description

Non -inferiority in 8-month Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) and in-segment late lumen loss at 9 months between the CoStar™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System and the TAXUS™ Express2™ Drug Eluting Coronary Stent System for the treatment of a single de novo lesion per vessel in patients with single and multi-vessel coronary disease.

    Measured: 8 months

  2. In-segment late lumen loss

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Device, lesion and procedure success

    Measured: At procedure or hospital discharge

  2. Incidence of MACE

    Measured: 30 days, 9 months and 12 months

  3. Coronary angiography in the angiographic cohort

    Measured: 9 months

  4. Target lesion revascularization

    Measured: 8 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CoStar Paclitaxel Drug Eluting Coronary Stent System and TAXUS™ Express2™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent in people with Coronary Disease, run by Cordis US Corp. at 2 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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 4 Aug 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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 phase mean?

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?

MACE defined as a composite of target vessel revascularization, new myocardial infarction (MI), or cardiac death (time frame: 8 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00165035, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 4 Aug 2011.
