Trial summary

Coronary bifurcation lesions pose therapeutic problems during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and are associated with higher rates of periprocedural complications as well as higher rates of in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis. Provisional T-stenting (PTS) is the best treatment strategy at the moment. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Regular Drug Eluting Stent Versus Dedicated Bifurcation Sirolimus-eluting Stent BiOSS LIM in Coronary Bifurcation Treatment - Randomized POLBOS II Study.

Coronary bifurcation lesions pose therapeutic problems during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and are associated with higher rates of periprocedural complications as well as higher rates of in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis. Provisional T-stenting (PTS) is the best treatment strategy at the moment. However, the optimal approach to coronary bifurcations treatment is still a subject of debate, especially when the side branch is large, not easily accessible and narrowed by a long lesion. One of the proposed alternatives are dedicated bifurcation stents (DBS). However, there is large scarcity of randomized trials with DBS. POLBOS II study is continuation of POLBOS I (POLish Bifurcation Optimal Stenting) study, in which paclitaxel-eluting stent BiOSS Expert® (Balton, Poland) was assessed. Now performance of sirolimus-eluting stent BiOSS LIM® (Balton, Poland) is verified.

Read the detailed description

After signing the informed consent patients were randomly assigned to one of two treatment strategies: BiOSS LIM® stent implantation or rDES implantation (envelope randomization, 1:1). If the patient was enrolled to rDES Group there was a second randomization: with or without final kissing ballooning (FKB). Clinical follow-up was performed with office visits or telephone contacts at 1 and 12 months after intervention. Adverse events were monitored throughout the study period. Follow-up coronary angiography was performed at 12 months unless clinically indicated earlier.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 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 Jul 2015. 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 Poland. 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?

MACE (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 NCT02198300, which also lists 6 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 Jul 2015.
