What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Target Lesion Failure (TLF)

    The primary endpoint for this study is the percentage of participants who experienced Target Lesion Failure (TLF) during the 12 months post-procedure. A TLF event is defined as clinically-driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vessel at 12 months post-procedure.

    Measured: 12-months post-procedure

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Percentage of Lesion Success

    Lesion success is defined as the attainment of < 50 percent residual stenosis (by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA)) using any percutaneous method.

    Measured: At procedure

  2. Percentage of Device Success - Protocol Definition

    Device success is defined as achievement of a final residual diameter stenosis of <50 percent (by QCA), using the assigned device only. If QCA was not available, the visual estimate of diameter stenosis was used. Device success was based on the following two measurements. Protocol definition: Only protocol-defined study stents were included.

    Measured: At procedure

  3. Percentage of Device Success - All CYPHER® Stents Included

    Device success is defined as achievement of a final residual diameter stenosis of <50 percent (by QCA), using the assigned device only. If QCA was not available, the visual estimate of diameter stenosis was used. Device success was based on the following two measurements. All CYPHER® Stents were included if the final residual stenosis was <50%. Non-study CYPHER® Stents were also included.

    Measured: At procedure

  4. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Procedure Success

    Procedure success is defined as achievement of a final diameter stenosis of < 50 percent (by QCA) using any percutaneous method, without the occurrence of death, Myocardial Infarction (MI), or repeat revascularization of the target lesion during the hospital stay.

    Measured: At procedure during hospital stay

  5. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR)

    TLR is defined as any "clinically-driven" repeat percutaneous intervention of the target lesion or bypass surgery of the target vessel. Clinically-driven revascularizations are those in which the patient has a positive functional study, ischemic electrocardiogram (ECG) changes at rest in a distribution consistent with the target vessel, or ischemic symptoms, and an in-lesion diameter stenosis 50 percent by QCA.

    Measured: 12 months post-procedure

  6. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR)

    TVR is defined as any "clinically driven" repeat percutaneous intervention of the target vessel or bypass surgery of the target vessel. Clinically-driven revascularizations are those in which the patient has a positive functional study, ischemic ECG changes at rest in a distribution consistent with the target vessel, or ischemic symptoms, and an in-lesion diameter stenosis 50 percent by QCA.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  7. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Target Vessel Failure (TVF)

    Target Vessel failure is defined as clinically-driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vessel at 12 months post-procedure.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  8. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)

    MAJOR ADVERSE CARDIAC EVENTS (MACE) consists of death, myocardial infarction, emergent bypass surgery, and target lesion revascularization.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  9. Percentage of Participants Who Had Lesions of More Than 1 Vessel and Experienced Target Lesion Failure (TLF)

    A Target Lesion Failure is defined as clinically-driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vessel at 12 months post-procedure.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  10. Percentage of Participants Who Had Diabetes and Experienced Target Lesion Failure (TLF)

    A Target Lesion Failure is defined as clinically-driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction, or cardiac death that could not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vessel at 12 months post-procedure.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  11. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Bleeding Complications

    Bleeding complications include any bleeding events defined by THROMBOLYSIS IN MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (TIMI), Global Strategies for Opening Occluded Coronary Arteries (GUSTO), and "Protocol" definitions.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  12. Percentage of Participants Who Died

    Death incidences include both Cardiac and non-cardiac death.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  13. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Any Myocardial Infarction (MI)

    Myocardial Infarction includes both Q-wave and WHO Non-Q Wave Myocardial Infarction events.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  14. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Stroke

    The stroke definition includes both hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic strokes.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  15. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Stent Thrombosis (Protocol Definition)

    Protocol defined Stent thrombosis include both Early and Late Thrombosis. Early thrombosis is defined as composite thirty-day ischemic endpoint including death, Q-wave MI, or subabrupt closure requiring revascularization. Late thrombosis is defined as myocardial infarction occurring > 30 days after the index procedure and attributable to the target vessel with angiographic documentation (site-reported or by qualitative coronary angiography) of thrombus or total occlusion at the target site and freedom from an interim revascularization of the target vessel.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  16. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Stent Thrombosis (Academic Research Consortium (ARC) Definition)

    Academic Research Consortium (ARC) defines STENT THROMBOSIS as consisting of the following:

    1. DEFINITE - Angiographic or pathologic confirmation;
    2. PROBABLE - Any unexplained death within the first 30 days or Any MI (related to documented acute ischemia and without another obvious cause) in the territory of the stent;
    3. POSSIBLE - Any unexplained death > 30 days.

    ARC Stent thrombosis should be reported as a cumulative value at the different time points and with the different separate time points.

    Measured: 12 months post procedure

  17. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Early Stent Thrombosis (Academic Research Consortium (ARC) Definition)

    Those ARC stent thromboses occurred between 0 and 30 days post-procedure are early stent thrombosis.

    Measured: 0-30 days post-procedure

  18. Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Late Stent Thrombosis (Academic Research Consortium (ARC) Definition)

    Those ARC stent thromboses occurred between 31 to 360 days post-procedure are late stent thrombosis.

    Measured: 31-360 days post-procedure

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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 May 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Target Lesion Failure (TLF) (time frame: 12-months post-procedure). 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 20 Jan 2014.
