Efficacy Study of Two Different Strategies for Restenosis in Sirolimus-Eluting Stents

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Interventions
Device: Sirolimus eluting stent
Device: Paclitaxel-eluting stent
Registration Number
NCT00598715
Lead Sponsor
Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen
Brief Summary

For lesions which develop restenosis after a drug-eluting stent, it is not known which the right strategy to use is, implantation of the same type of DES as the initial one or a DES with a different drug.

Detailed Description

Treatment of in-stent restenosis after implantation of a DES has poorly been studied. Although there are no data, it may be assumed that certain lesions might be resistant to a given drug and in need of a different DES. Thus, for lesions which develop restenosis after a DES, it is not known which the right strategy to use is, implantation of the same type of DES as the initial one or a DES with a different drug. This prospective, randomized trial will compare the anti-restenotic efficacy of PES or SES in patients with restenosis after initial implantation of a SES
