STRATEGY for Left Main Coronary Bifurcation Lesion II

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Interventions
Device: One stent technique + Elective FKB
Device: Elective 2-stent
Procedure: Provisional approach
Device: One stent technique alone
Registration Number
NCT01798433
Lead Sponsor
Samsung Medical Center
Brief Summary

In patients with unprotected left main (LM) true bifurcation lesion (cohort A), elective 2-stent strategy is superior to provisional strategy at preventing the occurrence of 12-month target lesion failure after percutaneous coronary intervention for bifurcation lesion.

In patients with unprotected LM non-true bifurcation lesion (cohort B), 1-stent technique with mandatory final kissing ballooning is superior to 1-stent technique without kissing ballooning at preventing the occurrence of 12-month target lesion failure after percutaneous coronary intervention for bifurcation lesion.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Target lesion failure12-month

defined ad a composite of cardiac death, spontaneous MI or target lesion revascularization

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Procedure success ratethe first 48 hours after PCI
Cardiac death12-month

All deaths were considered cardiac unless a definite non-cardiac cause could be established.

Angiographic in-segment restenosis rate9 months

as measured by 9-month quantitative coronary analysis

Target vessel revascularization (TVR)12-month

TVR was defined as repeat revascularization of the target vessel by PCI or bypass graft surgery.

Stent thrombosis12-month

Stent thrombosis was assessed based on the definitions of the Academic Research Consortium as definite, probable, or possible stent thrombosis.

Myocardial infarction (MI)12-month

MI was defined as elevated cardiac enzymes (troponin or MB fraction of creatine kinase, CK-MB) more than the upper limit of the normal value with ischemic symptoms or electrocardiography findings indicative of ischemia that was not related to the index procedure.

Target lesion revascularization (TLR)12-month

TLR was defined as repeat PCI of the lesion within 5 mm of stent deployment or bypass graft surgery of the target vessel.

Periprocedural CK-MB elevationthe first 48 hours after PCI

Periprocedural enzyme elevation was defined as a rise in CK-MB ≥3 times the upper normal limit after the index procedure.

Procedure timeimmediate after PCI
Amount of contrast dyeimmediate after PCI
