About this study

Official title: Direct Implantation of Rapamycin-Eluting Stents With Bio-Erodible Drug Carrier Technology Utilizing the Second Generation Svelte Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent Integrated Delivery System (IDS)

A prospective, randomized, active-control, multi-center clinical trial comparing the safety and efficacy of the Svelte Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent Integrated Delivery System (IDS) to that of the commercially available Resolute IntegrityTM Drug-Eluting Stent.

The study objective is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Svelte Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent Integrated Delivery System (IDS) compared to the Resolute IntegrityTM Drug-Eluting Stent in patients with single, never previously treated coronary artery lesions

What is being measured

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

  1. Angiographic In-Stent Late Lumen Loss (LL)

    Defined as the measurements either within the stented segment or within 5 mm proximal and distal to the stent edges.

    Measured: 6-months post-procedure

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Number of Participants Clinically-driven Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR)

    Clinically driven TLR is defined as revascularization performed on a patient who returns with clinical symptoms such as unstable angina, that is, chest pain that increases in frequency, intensity or duration.

    Measured: 1 year post-procedure

  2. Number of Participants Composite of Cardiac Death, MI Attributed to the Target Vessel and Clinically Driven Target Lesion Revascularization

    Composite of cardiac death, MI attributed to the target vessel and clinically driven target lesion revascularization

    Measured: 1 year post-procedure

  4. Number of Participants Stent Thrombosis

    The sudden occlusion of a stented coronary artery due to thrombus formation.

    Measured: 1 year post-procedure

  5. Number of Participants Acute Success Rates

    Direct Stenting Success, Lesion Success, Procedure Success and Device Failure

    Measured: From index procedure to hospital discharge, an average of 24 hours

  6. Number of Participants In-stent and In-segment Angiographic Binary Restenosis Rate

    The rate which restenosis occurs

    Measured: 6-months post-procedure

  7. In-stent and In-segment Minimum Lumen Diameter

    Smallest diameter in the stent or segment area

    Measured: 6-months post-procedure

  8. In-segment Late Lumen Loss

    Late lumen loss is the difference in millimeters between the diameter of a stented segment post-procedure compared with the follow-up angiogram

    Measured: 6-months post-procedure

  9. Neointimal Hyperplasia as Measured by OCT

    (% lumen volume)

    Measured: 6-months post procedures

  10. Strut Coverage

    (% of struts malapposed, protruding non-covered, protruding covered, non-protruding covered)

    Measured: 6-months post procedure

  11. Number of Participants Target Vessel Failure

    Composite endpoint of cardiac death, target vessel MI (Q or Non-Q wave), or clinically- driven target vessel revascularization (TVR) by percutaneous or surgical methods.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary Stenting in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Svelte Medical Systems, Inc. at 18 sites in 7 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 18 inclusion and 30 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 4 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Sweden and 2 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 May 2021). 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?

Angiographic In-Stent Late Lumen Loss (LL) (time frame: 6-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 4 May 2021.
