About this study

Official title: An Optical Coherence Tomography Evaluation of the Effects of High-Pressure, Non-compliant Ballooning on Scaffold Embedding

This study is a single-center, prospective, observational study designed to subjects presenting with stable angina pectoris or acute coronary syndromes requiring treatment of de novo lesions.

Eligible subjects will have BVS scaffold implant using a high pressure post-scaffold implantation ballooning, designed to specifically address the issue of incomplete BVS expansion. OCT ( optical coherence tomography ) will be used to evaluate the change in the intraluminal scaffold volume and the prevalence of scaffold embedding from post-scaffold implantation to post-dilation high pressure (16-20 atm), non-compliant ballooning in relation to the underlying plaque.

Read the detailed description

This study is a single-center, prospective, observational study designed to enroll 50 subjects presenting with stable angina pectoris or acute coronary syndromes requiring treatment of de novo lesions. Consented subjects are to undergo PCI and have a lesion without angiographic calcification.

Eligible subjects who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria for BVS scaffold implant will have a BVS-specific implantation protocol with high pressure post-scaffold implantation ballooning, designed to specifically address the issue of incomplete BVS expansion. Because the scaffold is compliant, a perfectly embedded scaffold is sometimes observed in a lesion with soft plaque, resulting in a smaller intra-luminal scaffold volume that may reduce the event rate. Enrolled subjects will have OCT ( optical coherence tomography ) pre and post BVS implantation to assess the change in the intraluminal scaffold volume and the prevalence of scaffold embedding from post-scaffold implantation (using the moderate pressure of 12 atm) to post-dilation high pressure (16-20 atm), non-compliant ballooning in relation to the underlying plaque.

What participants receive

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

  • Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds, OCT, non-compliant ballooningDevice

    Measure the effect of high-pressure, NC ballooning on scaffold embedding by OCT

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in the percentage of the number of embedded scaffold struts as evaluated by OCT

    Percentage of embedded scaffold strut is defined as the ratio of the number of embedded strut to the total number of analyzed strut per lesion. (% of embedded scaffold struts = No. of embedded struts / total No. of analyzed struts) The analysis will be done for both OCT images 1) after initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure and 2) after post-dilatation using high pressure non-compliant balloon, and the change in percentage of embedded scaffold strut from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation to post-dilation will be calculated. (∆ % of embedded scaffold struts = % of embedded scaffold struts of initial scaffold implantation - % of embedded scaffold struts of post-dilatation)

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in minimum scaffold cross-sectional area

    Minimum scaffold cross-sectional area defined as the smallest endoluminal area within the entire scaffold cross-section. We will evaluate the change from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure to post-dilation using high pressure using non-compliant balloon

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

  2. Change in mean scaffold cross-sectional area

    Mean scaffold cross-sectional area defined as the average of endoluminal area within the entire scaffold cross-section. We will evaluate the change from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure to post-dilation using high pressure using non-compliant balloon

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

  3. Change in the ratio of minimum scaffold cross-sectional area and expected scaffold cross-sectional area from manufacturer chart of balloon

    We will evaluate the change from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure to post-dilation using high pressure using non-compliant balloon.

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

  4. Change in the ratio of minimum scaffold cross-sectional area and average of proximal and distal reference lumen cross-sectional

    We will evaluate the change from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure to post-dilation using high pressure using non-compliant balloon

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

  5. Change in the Percentage of footprint

    Percentage of footprint defined as the ratio of outer BVS scaffold surface area to total luminal surface area. We will evaluate the change from initial bioresorbable scaffold implantation using moderate pressure to post-dilation using high pressure using non-compliant balloon

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)

  6. Comparison of scaffold embedding between non-calcified plaque and moderate calcified plaque (arc <180°)

    In the strut level, the percentage of embedded scaffold struts between calcified plaque and non-calcified plaque will be compared. And about the lesion, Other secondary endpoints(2-7) listed above will be compared between calcified plaque and non-calcified plaque will be compared.

    Measured: intra-procedure (PCI)
