About this study

Official title: A Randomized Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of the ExcelTM Sirolimus Eluting Stent With a Biodegradable Polymer Versus SirOlimus ELUting Stent With Non-Biodegradable Polymer in the Treatment of PatIents With de nOvo Coronary Artery LesioNs

E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.: A Randomized Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of the Excel Sirolimus Eluting Stent with a Biodegradable Polymer Versus Sirolimus Eluting Stent with a Non-Biodegradable Polymer in the Treatment of Patients with de novo Coronary Artery Lesions.

E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.: A Randomized Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of the Excel Sirolimus Eluting Stent with a Biodegradable Polymer Versus Sirolimus Eluting Stent with a Non-Biodegradable Polymer in the Treatment of Patients with de novo Coronary Artery Lesions.

A prospective, randomized, controlled, parallel two-arm multi-center study, comparing the ExcelTM DES to CypherTM DES in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Excel DES (biodegradable polymer) compared to the Cypher DES (non-biodegradable polymer) in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.

Approximately 1944 patients will be enrolled in up to 25 centers in China. Primary Endpoint:Ischemia-driven Target Vessel Failure which is a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (Q and non-Q wave) and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 12 months.

Secondary Endpoint:

  1. Ischemia-driven Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 months defined as a composite of cardiac death that can not be clearly attributed to a vessel other than the target vessel, target vessel MI (Q and Non-Q wave) and ischemia-driven TLR.
  2. Rates of stent thrombosis, defined (per ARC definition) as definite or probable and categorized as early, late or very late.
  3. Rates for each component of the TLF composite endpoint (cardiac death, target vessel MI, ischemia- driven TLR) at 12 months post-procedure.
  4. Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) defined as cardiac Death, target vessel MI (Q and Non-Q wave), or target Lesion revascularization (TLR) at 30 days, 6 months, 12 months and 2 to 5 years annually.
  5. Device Success defined as achievement of a final residual in-stent diameter stenosis of < 30% (visual estimate) and a TIMI flow of 3 using the Excel/Cypher DES.
  6. Procedure Success defined as achievement of a final in- stent diameter stenosis of < 30% (visual estimate) and a TIMI flow of 3 using any percutaneous method, without the occurrence of in-hospital MACE. (ALL TLR IN THIS STUDY WILL BE CLINICALLY INDICATED)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary AngioplastyDevice

    Also called EVOLUTION, EXCEL vs CYPHER

    Patients will be randomly assigned (2:1) to one of two treatment arms (the Excel DES or the Cypher DES). Randomization will be stratified by study site and number of vessels intended to be treated by the site investigator. Randomization will be accomplished through use of envelope randomization at the sites using the pre-assigned envelope randomization system. The study patient is considered enrolled upon randomization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty in people with Ischemia and Cardiac Death, run by JW Medical Systems Ltd at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lei Ge, Prof (+8613816112695, ge.lei@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ischemia-driven Target Vessel Failure which is a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (Q and non-Q wave) and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 12 months. (time frame: 12 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 NCT00825773, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Jan 2009.
