About this study

Official title: Randomized Clinical Evaluation of Alpine® vs. Xpedition® Stent Delivery System of the XIENCE® Everolimus-eluting Stent

To evaluate and compare the performance of two stent delivery systems for percutaneous coronary intervention with everolimus-eluting stent.

Read the detailed description

Rationale: The current gold standard for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the second generation drug-eluting stent (DES). The most commonly used DES is the everolimus-eluting stent (EES). New stent delivery systems for PCI with EES are developed to optimize strength, flexibility and pushability of the catheter. The effect on procedural time of new stent delivery systems has not yet been investigated in clinical practice.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the performance of two stent delivery systems for PCI with EES.

Study design: Randomized comparative trial with 500 patients in the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG).

Study population: All patients undergoing PCI with EES, aged 18 years or older, will be considered for eligibility. Patients will be excluded when scheduled for chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI or if verbal informed consent cannot be obtained.

Intervention: The first group will undergo PCI with the XIENCE EES using the Alpine stent delivery system, the second group will undergo PCI with the Xpedition stent delivery system.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is the proportion of procedures with crossing time (from introduction of guidewire to stent deployment) longer than 30 minutes. Secondary endpoints include procedural time (from heparin administration to removal of catheter sheath, mins), use of additional materials, total procedural costs, radiation dose (μGym2), radiation time (mins), and contrast dose (ml).

Being tested
Stent delivery with Xpedition, Stent delivery with Alpine

  2. Total procedural costs

    Total cost of the materials used during the procedure (stent delivery system and additional materials) in euros.

    Measured: During PCI procedure

  3. Radiation dose

    Measured: During PCI procedure

  4. Radiation time

    Measured: During PCI procedure

  5. Contrast dose

    Measured: During PCI procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stent delivery with Xpedition and Stent delivery with Alpine in people with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, run by University of Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 2 Mar 2018. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Pim van der Harst, Prof. Dr. (+31 50 3612355, p.van.der.harst@umcg.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Crossing time (time frame: During PCI 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 2 Mar 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
