Everolimus Stent in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Atherosclerosis
Interventions
Device: stent
Device: coronary stent
Registration Number
NCT01182649
Lead Sponsor
San Giuseppe Moscati Hospital
Brief Summary

Aim of the study is to compare the everolimus eluting stent and sirolimus eluting stent in all comers PCI eligible patients

Detailed Description

Compared with the currently available first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES), second-generation DES have been designed with the goal of improving safety and efficacy. Everolimus, a sirolimus analogue, is released from a open cell, thin-strut, cobalt-chromium frame. A significant reduction in cardiac events was noted in patients with the everolimus-eluting stent compared with those who had a paclitaxel-eluting stent. Sirolimus eluting stent was the first available drug eluting stent and is the most tested. Therefore the investigators compared the safety and efficacy of the everolimus-eluting and sirolimus eluting stents in unselected patients in real world practice.
