Overview
Brief Summary
This study in bifurcated coronary lesions compares the new technology of the paclitaxel-eluting balloon with the usual technique until now of "provisional stenting" with the paclitaxel-eluting stent in the main branch.
Detailed Description
The bifurcated coronary lesions are still a challenge for interventional cardiologists, since there is no suitable technique or strategy to manage such lesions. This multicenter randomized prospective trial in bifurcated coronary lesions will compare the new technology of the paclitaxel-eluting balloon with the until now "gold standard" technique of the "provisional stenting" with the paclitaxel DES in the main branch.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Patients with stable angina (1-3) or unstable angina (1-3 A-C) or documented silent ischemia
- •Patients with mental and logistic conditions for the follow-up
- •Patients should accept an angiographic follow-up at 9 months, a clinical follow-up at 3 years and sign the consent

- •The left main lesions in bifurcation are also accepted but with another independent randomization list (specify at randomization)
- •The diameter of the stenoses should be \>50% in any branch with documented ischemia or more than 70% in absence of an ischemia test
- •Single vessel or multivessel disease
- •In case of a PTCA of more than one lesion, the non included lesion should be treated previously to the included lesion
Exclusion Criteria

- •Evidence of important thrombus within the vessel to treat
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Late Lumen Loss (LLL)
Time Frame: Late angiographic follow-up (9 months)
Assessment of the difference between both groups regarding the Late Lumen Loss (LLL) in main vessel and side branch, measured at late angiographic follow-up at 9 months
Restenosis
Time Frame: Late angiographic follow-up (9 months)
Assessment of the difference between both groups regarding the Restenosis in both branches (proximal part of the main vessel, distal part of the main vessel and side branch), measured at late angiographic follow-up at 9 months
Secondary Outcomes
- Thrombosis rate(Late angiographic follow-up (9 months))
- Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR)(Late angiographic follow-up (9 months))
- Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)(Late angiographic follow-up (9 months))
