Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD), including those with diabetes mellitus, with symptomatic heart disease, stable angina, unstable angina, non-ST elevation myocardial infarction or documented silent ischemia due to atherosclerotic lesions in the native coronary arteries with a reference vessel diameter of 2.25 mm to 4.0 mm and a lesion length of ≤ 36 mm.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is ≥18 years of age.
  • Subject was an acceptable candidate for treatment with a drug eluting stent at the qualifying index procedure, in accordance with the applicable guidelines on percutaneous coronary interventions and manufacturer's Instructions for Use.
  • Subject received at least one Orsiro stent during an index procedure occurring within 24 hours prior to informed consent, as assessed by the end time of procedure. If more than one stent was implanted during the index procedure, all stents were Orsiro stents.
  • Subject is eligible for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) treatment with aspirin plus either clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticagrelor or ticlopidine.
  • Subject is willing to comply with study follow-up requirements.
  • Subject has provided written informed consent as approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the respective clinical site. Legally authorized representatives are not allowed to consent on a subject's behalf.

  • Each target lesion/vessel must have met all of the following angiographic criteria from the index procedure for the subject to be eligible for the trial:
  • Subject has up to three target lesions in up to two separate target vessels (two target lesions in one vessel and one target lesion in a separate vessel).
  • Target lesion must be de novo or restenotic lesion in native coronary artery; restenotic lesion must have been treated with a standard PTCA only.
  • Target lesion must be in major coronary artery or branch (target vessel).
  • Target lesion must have angiographic evidence of ≥ 50% and < 100% stenosis (by operator visual estimate). If the target lesion is < 70% stenosed, there should be clinical evidence of ischemia.

  • Subject has life expectancy of < 1 year.
  • Subject is participating in an investigational (medical device or drug) clinical study. Subjects may be concurrently enrolled in a post-market study, as long as the post-market study device, drug or protocol does not interfere with the follow-up requirements of this study or does not involve a drug that may confound the interpretation of any relevant clinical events of interest (e.g. investigational DAPT therapy).
  • In the investigator's opinion, subject will not be able to comply with the follow-up requirements.

  • Lesion location is within the left main coronary artery, or within 3 mm of the origin of the left anterior descending (LAD) or left circumflex (LCX).
  • Involves a side branch of > 2.0 mm in diameter.
  • Target vessel/lesion was excessively tortuous/angulated or is severely calcified, that would prevent complete inflation of an angioplasty balloon. This assessment should be based on visual estimation.
  • Target vessel had angiographic evidence of thrombus.
  • Target lesion was totally occluded (100% stenosis).
  • Target vessel was treated with brachytherapy any time prior to the index procedure.

About this study

Official title: BIOTRONIK - A Prospective Multicenter Study to Confirm the SaFety and Effectiveness of the Orsiro SiroLimus Eluting Coronary Stent System in the Treatment Of Subjects With up to Three De Novo or Restenotic Coronary Artery Lesions - VII

The objective of this post-approval study is to confirm that the clinical performance of the Orsiro stent in a real-world setting is similar to the clinical performance observed for Orsiro in the BIOFLOW-V Investigational Device Exemption pivotal trial, as a condition of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval (P170030).

Read the detailed description

BIOFLOW-VII is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm study. Subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) who undergo an on-label percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a placed Orsiro stent within the prior 24 hours will be screened post-index procedure per the protocol inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Following the index procedure and study enrollment, subjects will be followed for 5 years. The follow-up schedule will include an intermediate study visit at 1 month, a primary endpoint study visit at 12 months, and long-term study visits at 2, 3, 4, and 5 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Atherosclerosis, Coronary, run by Biotronik, Inc. at 33 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 15 inclusion and 26 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 27 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Apr 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 Months Post-Index Procedure (time frame: 12-Months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 27 Feb 2026.
