About this study

Official title: French Multicenter Study Assessing Angioplasty With Taxus Drug Eluting Stent in Unprotected Left Main Coronary Artery Associated to Other Coronary Lesions or Not

The purpose of this study is to determine whether percutaneous coronary angioplasty with Taxus drug eluting stent is safe and effective in the treatment of unprotected left main coronary artery disease associated to other coronary lesions or not.

Read the detailed description

Coronary artery bypass graft is the reference treatment of left main coronary artery disease. With the advancements of technology and particularly drug-eluting stents, in-stent restenosis has dramatically decreased and now it is possible to extend indications of complexes lesions such as left main coronary artery stenoses. In these particular situations,some centers performed percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PCI) with drug-eluting stents with acceptable results in terms of safety and efficacy. However, these procedures are performed at isolated sites and are not evaluated in multicenter trial.The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of this PCI with Taxus-stent in a french multicenter trial and to evaluate clinical and angiographic outcome of these patients at long-term follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Percutaneous coronary intervention with Taxus stent in people with Coronary Arteriosclerosis, run by French Cardiology Society at 26 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Coronarography (time frame: 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jan 2011.
