About this study

Official title: A Canadian Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of the Sirolimus-Coated BX Velocity Balloon-Expandable Stent in the Treatment of Patients With de Novo Coronary Artery Lesions.

The main objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the sirolimus-coated Bx VELOCITY™ stent in maintaining minimum lumen diameter in de novo native coronary artery lesions as compared to the uncoated Bx VELOCITY™ balloon-expandable stent. Both stents are mounted on the Raptor® Stent Delivery Systems.

The secondary objective is to assess cost-effectiveness expressed in incremental cost/life year gained or cost/quality adjusted life year gained at different time points (8 months, 1 year, 3 and 5 years).

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter ,prospective, randomized double blind study. This study has a 2-arm design assessing the safety and effectiveness of the sirolimus-coated Bx VELOCITY™ stent to the uncoated Bx VELOCITY™ stent, both mounted on Raptor® Stent Delivery Systems. A total of 100 patients will be entered in the study and will be randomized on a 1:1 basis. Patients who meet the eligibility criteria will be either randomized to Treatment A or Treatment B. Neither the investigator nor the patient will know which stent will be implanted. Patients will be followed at 30 days, 6, 9, and 12 months, and at 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post-procedure, with all patients undergoing repeat angiography at 8 months. Additionally, medical costs associated with the index hospitalization and length of stay, and repeat hospitalizations and costs associated with other relevant medical resource use during the 5 years follow-up period will be collected and analyzed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. in-stent minimum lumen diameter (MLD)

    Measured: 8 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. composite of Major Adverse Cardiac Events defined as death, myocardial infarction (Q wave and non-Q wave), emergent bypass surgery, or repeat target lesion revascularization

    Measured: 30 days and 6, 9, and 12 months, and 2, 3, 4 and 5 years

  2. angiographic binary restenosis (³50% diameter stenosis)

    Measured: 8 months

  3. in-lesion MLD

    Measured: 8 months

  4. target lesion revascularization

    Measured: 9 months

  5. target vessel revascularization

    Measured: 9 months

  6. target vessel failure defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or target vessel revascularization

    Measured: 9 months

  7. procedure success defined as achievement of a final diameter stenosis of <50% (by QCA) using any percutaneous method, without the occurrence of death, MI, or repeat revascularization of the target lesion

    Measured: up to hospital discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing drug-eluting stent and bare-metal stent in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Cordis US Corp..

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 31 Oct 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

in-stent minimum lumen diameter (MLD) (time frame: 8 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00381420, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 31 Oct 2008.
