Drug-eluting Balloon in Bifurcations Trial

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Atherosclerosis
Unstable Angina
Coronary Artery Disease
Stable Angina
Interventions
Device: Drug eluting balloon
Device: Liberté
Device: PTCA balloon catheter
Device: Taxus
Registration Number
NCT00857441
Lead Sponsor
UMC Utrecht
Brief Summary

The purpose of the DEBIUT study is to assess procedural, clinical and angiographic outcomes of:

1. Provisional T-stenting use for dilation the Paclitaxel-eluting PCI-balloon (DiorTM) in comparison to dilation with a standard balloon prior to the implant of the Liberty Bare Metal Stent in bifurcation lesions (with side branch involvement).

2. Comparison of the results above with the results of using a standard balloon prior to provisional T-stenting with the Paclitaxel-eluting stent TaxusTM LibertéTM.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Stable angina pectoris (CCS class 1,2,3,4) or unstable angina and documented ischemia or silent ischemia
  • Patients eligible for coronary revascularisation
  • The target bifurcation lesion has a major native coronary artery (>2.5mm) with a stenosis > 50% (on visual assessment) located at a side branch (>2mm)
  • Patient must be acceptable for CABG
  • De novo lesion
  • The main vessel lesion can be covered by one stent (up to 32mm)
  • Only one target lesion can be included in the study: other lesions in different vessels are successfully treated before the treatment of the target lesion (residual stenosis <30%, stent well deployed, no residual dissection, normal TIMI flow, no chest pain, ECG unchanged compared to pre-procedural ECG)
  • Signed patients informed consent
Exclusion Criteria
  • Patient unable to give informed consent
  • Patients with a previous PCI in the target vessel
  • Patients with in stent restenosis of target lesion
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction more than 30%
  • Patients with left main disease
  • Severe calcifications with an undilatable lesion during balloon predilatation
  • History of bleeding diathesis
  • Untreated significant lesion greater than 50% diameter stenosis remaining proximal or distal to the target intervention.
  • Patient has suffered a stroke or TIA within the past 3 months
  • Life expectancy < 1 year
  • Any major surgery planned or required during the next 6 months
  • Acute Myocardial Infarction
  • Only one target lesion can be included in the study
  • Allergy to contrast and/or required anti-platelet medication
  • Patients unwilling to return for follow-up at 6 months
