About this study

Aim of the study is to evaluate chronic total coronary occlusion treatment results 6 years after bioresorbable scaffold implantation by quantitative coronary analysis, intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography.

Read the detailed description

The study aims to assess the outcomes of treating chronic total coronary occlusion (CTO) using bioresorbable scaffolds six years after implantation. The evaluation employs quantitative coronary analysis (QCA), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and optical coherence tomography (OCT) as invasive imaging tools. Clinical follow-ups were conducted at one and six years post-implantation to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the long-term safety and feasibility of bioresorbable scaffold implantation for CTO.

The primary outcome measure is defined as the target lesion failure of the treated chronic total coronary occlusion segment. Target lesion failure typically encompasses a composite endpoint that includes clinical events such as cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, and clinically-driven target lesion revascularization.

The use of QCA allows for the quantitative assessment of the coronary arteries, providing measurements of vessel diameter and lesion length. IVUS is employed to obtain detailed images of the vessel wall, helping to visualize the morphology of the treated segment and assess the presence of any complications such as stent malapposition or edge dissections. OCT, with its high resolution, allows for detailed imaging of the coronary artery, providing information on plaque composition and stent apposition.

By combining these invasive imaging tools with clinical follow-ups at specified intervals, the study aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the long-term efficacy and safety of bioresorbable scaffold implantation in the treatment of chronic total coronary occlusion. The focus on target lesion failure as the primary outcome measure ensures a clinically relevant assessment of the success of the intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Target Lesion Failure

    Target Lesion Failure (TLF) will be assessed as the number of participants experiencing at least one of the following events during the follow-up period: cardiovascular death, clinically driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction and stent thrombosis according to the Academic Research Consortium.

    Measured: 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous coronary intervention. in people with Angina Pectoris and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Pauls Stradins Clinical University Hospital at 1 site in Latvia.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 11 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Latvia. 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 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?

Target Lesion Failure (time frame: 6 years). 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 11 Jun 2025.
