About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of Paclitaxel-Eluting Balloon, Paclitaxel-Eluting Stent and Plain Balloon Angioplasty for Restenosis in "-Limus"-Eluting Coronary Stents

The purpose of this randomized study is to determine which treatment option, either paclitaxel-eluting balloon, paclitaxel-eluting stent or plain balloon angioplasty is the most effective in the treatment of restenosis after implantation of "Limus"-eluting stents, (LES).

Read the detailed description

The use of drug-eluting stents (DES) has led to a drastic reduction of restenosis rates compared to bare metal stents (BMS), but 5% to 10% of patients receiving DES are still in need of revascularization of the treated vessel. Two important families of drugs are used for stent coating: paclitaxel belonging to the taxane family, and the "limus"-family such as sirolimus, everolimus, zotarolimus, biolimus A9 and pimecrolimus.

Data regarding the optimal treatment of in-DES-restenosis is very limited. Implanting a new DES for in-DES-restenosis has been reported to be associated with re-restenosis rates as high as 43%. Several recent well published studies have shown a substantial reduction of restenosis using paclitaxel-eluting balloons (PEB) for de-novo lesions and BMS-restenotic lesions.

The objective of this randomized trial is to assess the hypothesis, that PEB are non-inferior to paclitaxel-eluting-stents (PES) for restenosis in "limus"-eluting-stents (LES), and both, PEB and PES, are superior to plain angioplasty in patients with restenosis after initial LES implantation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Taxus stent, SeQuent Please and Conventional Balloon Catheter in people with Heart Disease and Ischemia, run by Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen at 3 sites in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 11 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 21 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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 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?

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?

Percent in-segment diameter stenosis at follow-up angiography (time frame: 6-8 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 NCT00987324, which also lists 4 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 21 Nov 2016.
