Vascular Response of Orsiro vs. Xience Drug-Eluting Stents for Treating Coronary Bifurcation Lesions

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Registration Number
NCT05200637
Lead Sponsor
Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
Brief Summary

This study aims to compare vessel response and clinical outcomes of a biodegradable-polymer, ultra-thin strut, drug-eluting stent (Orsiro, Biotronik) and a durable-polymer, thin-strut, drug-eluting stent (Xience, Abbott) for the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions with two-stent double-kissing crush technique. How the differences in stent platforms affect vessel healing process will be examined by optical coherence tomography.

Detailed Description

Patients with true coronary bifurcation lesions (Medina \[1, 1, 1\] or \[0, 1, 1\]) will be enrolled and randomized to undergo two-stent double kissing crush technique with Orsiro or Xience. Pre-intervention and post-stenting optical coherence tomography will be performed during the index procedure. Another parallel prospective registry will enroll patients with bifurcation lesions treated with provisional one-stent strategy. All subjects will receive coronary angiography and optical coherence tomography follow-up at 3 and 12 months.
