About this study

Official title: The Use of Very Long Versus Overlapping Drug Eluting Stents for the Management of Long Coronary Artery Lesions

This study is performed to compare the angiographic and clinical outcomes of the use of single long stent versus overlapping stents in the treatment of long coronary lesions in patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in diffuse coronary artery disease is still considered a big obstacle for interventional cardiologists. Very long coronary lesions are usually found, and implantation of a single stent was a great problem forcing the operator to do overlapping of several stents.

Recently, new stent designs with increasing length are developed and emerging as a great tool for the percutaneous treatment of long lesions. Nowadays, stents up to 60 mm are available to be used in these cases reducing stent overlap.

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention has been shown in clinical trials, registries, and meta-analyses to be associated with a reduction in clinical events after percutaneous coronary intervention; however, IVUS utilization during percutaneous coronary intervention remains low in the United States and worldwide. The impact of IVUS in these complex lesions may be associated with a lower rate of clinical adverse events in comparison with angiography alone.

The study will be conducted on forty patients with chronic stable angina on maximal medical treatment who are going to have elective coronary angiography and elective PCI and having one long coronary lesion that is more than 40 mm in length, they will be randomized into either treatment of the lesion with a single very long stent (more than 40 mm in length) or with more than one overlapping stents in 1:1 randomization. Control angiography and IVUS will be done to the 2 groups after 6 months and the major cardiovascular outcomes will be addressed at 1,3 and 6 months follow-up periods.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Percutaneous coronary intervention and stent implantation using one long stentExperimentalLong coronary lesions will be treated percutaneously with a single long stent (more than 40 mm in length) and intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) will be done immediately after stent deployment to record the baseline picture
Receives: Device: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Stent Implantation
Percutaneous coronary intervention and stent implantation using more than one overlapping stentsExperimentalLong coronary lesions will be treated with more than one overlapping stents and intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) will be done immediately after stent deployment to record the baseline picture

What is being measured

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

  1. Coronary angiographic criteria after 6 months of stent deployment

    Number of participants with any form in-stent restenosis using control coronary angiography at 6 months

    Measured: 6 months

  2. (IVUS) after 6 months of stent deployment

    Number of participants with any form in-stent restenosis using Intravascular Ultrasonography (IVUS) at 6 months to assess subclinical neointimal proliferation and in-stent restenosis

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Major Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) after 6 months

    Number of patients with any Major Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) at 6 months of stent deployment

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Any Major Bleeding Event

    Number of patients with Any Major Bleeding Event as defined by the International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (fatal bleeding, and/or symptomatic bleeding in a critical organ or area, and/or bleeding causing a fall in hemoglobin level of ≥ 2 g/dl or 1.24 mmol/L

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Stent Implantation in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Chronic Coronary Syndrome, run by The Young Investigator Group of Cardiovascular Research at 2 sites in Egypt.

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 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 2022. 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 Egypt. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Coronary angiographic criteria after 6 months of stent deployment (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Oct 2022.
