    Measured: 12 months

  10. Percentage of Participants Who Died, Had an Myocardial Infarction (MI) or a Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR) at12 Month.

    Measured: 12 months

  11. Percentage of Participants With a ARC (Academic Research Consortium) Stent Thrombosis Rate at 12 Month.

    Measured: 12 months

  12. Percentage of Patients With a Stroke at 12 Month.

    The stroke rate includes: Ischemic- , Hemorraghic- \& Undetermined Stroke.

    Measured: 12 months

  13. Periprocedural Technical Success Rate.

    Technical Success Rate is defined as successful delivery and deployment of the study stent to the target vessel, without balloon rupture or stent embolization, and post-procedure diameter stenosis less then 30% in 2 near-orthogonal projections with TIMI 3 flow in the target lesion. Technical success is lesion based.

    Measured: Day 1 (periprocedure)

  14. Periprocedural Clinical Procedural Success Rate

    Procedural Success Rate is defined as post-procedure diameter less then 30% in 2 near-orthogonal projections with TIMI 3 flow in all target lesions without occurrence of in-hospital cardiac death, MI, TVR. Procedural success rate is subject based.

    Measured: Day 1 (periprocedure)

  15. Percentage of Participants With a Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 Month.

    Measured: 12 month

  16. Percentage of Patients With Revascularization (=All Revascularizations) at 12 Month.

    All CEC adjudicated revascularization at 12 month (Intent to treat population).

    Measured: 12 Month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PROMUS Element Plus and SYNERGY in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Boston Scientific Corporation at 126 sites in 16 countries.

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 13 inclusion and 39 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 30 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 126 sites in United States, Japan, France, Canada, Australia and 11 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Jan 2016). 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 With Target Lesion Failure (TLF) 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 NCT01665053, which also lists 2 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 30 Jan 2019.
