About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized Trial of Drug-eluting Stents vs. Bare Metal Stents for the Reduction of Restenosis in Bypass Grafts.

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of drug-eluting stents and bare metal stents to reduce reblockage of bypass grafts after coronary stenting

Read the detailed description

A large number of studies showed that drug-eluting stents significantly reduce in-stent restenosis and the subsequent need for target vessel revascularisation compared with bare metal stents. Although this applies to the vast majority of patients, intimal hyperplasia and in-stent restenosis have not been completely eliminated and remain to occur in certain high risk subgroups. While there is a plenty of data about the efficacy of DES in complex lesions or diabetics, no randomized data exist about the efficacy of DES in coronary artery bypass graft lesions.

Being tested
sirolimus-eluting stent, paclitaxel-eluting stent, biodegradable-polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent, bare metal stents

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • sirolimus-eluting stentDevice

    Also called Cypher

    due to randomization Cypher stent will be implanted

  • paclitaxel-eluting stentDevice

    Also called Taxus

    due to randomization Taxus stent will be implanted

  • biodegradable-polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stentDevice

    Also called ISAR-DES, Yukon PC

    due to randomization a rapamycin-eluting stent with biodegradable polymer will be implanted

  • bare metal stentsDevice

    Also called Multilink Vision, Driver, etc.

    Due to randomization one bare-metal stent will be implanted. The decision about the stent type will be up to the interventionalist

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary end point of the study is composite of death, myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization at one year after stent implantation

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Myocardial infarction rate

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Need of target lesion revascularization (TLR), defined as any revascularization procedure involving the target lesion due to luminal re-narrowing in the presence of symptoms or objective signs of ischemia.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. All cause death

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Stent thrombosis

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing sirolimus-eluting stent, paclitaxel-eluting stent and biodegradable-polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent in people with Arteriosclerosis of Arterial Coronary Artery Bypass Graft, run by Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen at 4 sites in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 13 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 of the study is composite of death, myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization at one year after stent implantation (time frame: 12 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 NCT00611910, 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 13 May 2011.
