About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open Label, Non-randomized, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Procedural Safety and Efficacy of ELCA® in Treatment of Patients With Single or Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

This is a Prospective, Open label, Non-randomized, Single-Arm, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Procedural Safety and Efficacy of ELCA® in Treatment of Patients with Single or Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Up to 30 patients will be enrolled at up to 05 Indian study sites. Patients will be followed from enrollment through 30 days ± 7 days for the effectiveness and safety endpoints at the study centre.

Read the detailed description

Each subject will be followed from enrollment through 30 days ± 7 days for the effectiveness and safety endpoints. Upon enrollment after obtaining a written informed consent, each patient will be assigned a unique identification number. Only patients eligible to undergo cardiac catheterizations as per routine practice will be considered for the study. Premedication of patients will be as per the investigator's routine practice. All patient data will be recorded on patient data forms.

Screening: This will be performed prior to the cardiac catheterization procedure. Only patients who have consented and fulfill the selection criteria will be enrolled. Additionally, ECG and Echocardiogram will be done using hospital equipment to ensure fulfillment of inclusion/exclusion criteria.

Procedure: The entire procedure will be carried out as per the site routine practice and the device will be used as per the IFU.

Clinic follow up visit (30 ± 7 days): The subject will return to the clinic at 1 month to evaluate angina status as per the CCS classification, AE assessments, concomitant medications and any coronary intervention that has occurred since the previous contact.

An electrocardiogram (ECG) will be repeated during the clinic visit.

What participants receive

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

  • Excimer Laser Coronary AtherectomyDevice

    Also called ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheters (OTW and RX)

    Excimer Laser Coronary Atherectomy (ELCA ®) uses the high energy, monochromatic light beam to alter or dissolve (vaporize) the plaque without damaging the surrounding tissue. Fiber-optic catheters are used to deliver this light beam. For endovascular applications, Xenon Chloride excimer laser is used and its fiber-optic catheter has multiple small fibers, rather than just a few large fibers, in order to be flexible enough to navigate in the arterial tree.

Study groups in NCT03284229
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Excimer Laser Coronary AtherectomyExperimentalELCA® in patients with single or multivessel CAD either as a stand-alone modality or in conjunction with Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Balloon Angioplasty (PTCA). The entire procedure will be carried out as per the site routine practice and the device will be used as per the 'Instruction for Use'. Treating physicians/study investigators will be trained by the study Sponsor on the study protocol and procedures prior to clinical investigation procedure. Subject preparation and percutaneous access should be performed according to the standard hospital practice. Both femoral and radial accesses are accepted.

  3. Safety Success - Participants With Freedom From Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) Defined as Death, Non-Q-wave and Q-wave Myocardial Infarction (MI), Target Lesion Revascularization, Cardiac Tamponade and Life Threatening Arrhythmias

    Freedom from Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) defined as Death, Non-Q-wave and Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI), Target Lesion Revascularization, Cardiac tamponade and life threatening arrhythmias.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. TIMI Flow

    To determine post-procedural TIMI Flow grade. Changes of TIMI Grade flow after Index Procedure by measuring pre-procedure TIMI grade flow and post-procedure TIMI grade flow.

    TIMI flow is a scoring system from 0-3 referring to levels of coronary blood flow assessed during percutaneous coronary angioplasty. TIMI flow was assessed before and after the procedure. TIMI grade flow 0-3 are as described below.

    • TIMI 0 flow (no perfusion) refers to the absence of any antegrade flow beyond a coronary occlusion.
    • TIMI 1 flow (penetration without perfusion) is faint antegrade coronary flow beyond the occlusion, with incomplete filling of the distal coronary bed.
    • TIMI 2 flow (partial reperfusion) is delayed or sluggish antegrade flow with complete filling of the distal territory.
    • TIMI 3 is normal flow which fills the distal coronary bed completely.

    Measured: pre-procedure and post-procedure

  2. Lesion Morphology - Coronary Tortuosity Based on Degree of Tortuosity

    Tortuosity from coronary angiography

    Measured: Procedure

  3. Lesion Morphology - Eccentricity of Coronary Lesion
