Trial summary

The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions continue to remain challenges. Due to the complexity of the anatomical structure and the limitations of imaging, there are poor attachment and under-expansion of the stent at the branch ostium, which causes in-stent thrombosis and restenosis.

About this study

The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions continue to remain challenges. Due to the complexity of the anatomical structure and the limitations of imaging, there are poor attachment and under-expansion of the stent at the branch ostium, which causes in-stent thrombosis and restenosis. The delayed re-endothelialization arise from multi-layer stents. The one-stent strategy causes the displacement of the plaques and ridges of the branch ostium, and thus insufficient blood flow to the branches. The "L-sandwich" strategy, stents were implanted in the main vessel(MV) and the shaft of side branch(SB) respectively, then a drug-coated balloon(DCB) was applied to the ostium of the SB, to improve the tedious operation process in true bifurcation lesions and reduce postoperative complications. The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the "sandwich" strategy.

Read the detailed description

This is a study to evaluate the application of L-Sandwich in true bifurcation coronary artery disease.All eligible patients were randomly divided into three groups: experimental group 1: dual stent group: both main vessel(MV) and side branch(SB) were stented, and DK-Crush or Culotte were performed according to different pathological characteristics. Experimental group 2: single stent + drug-coated balloon(DCB): stent was implanted in the MV, and only drug balloon was used in the SB.Experimental group 3: L-Sandwich : stent was implanted in the MV, and the branch was implanted 3-5mm away from the ostium,and the DCB was implanted in the ostium of the branch.IVUS+ angiography was used to guide the operation and evaluate the outcome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Drug eluting stent and Durg coated balloon in people with Coronary Disease, run by Henan Institute of Cardiovascular Epidemiology at 1 site in China.

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 7 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 5 Aug 2022. 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 China. 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?

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?

main vessel late lumen loss (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Aug 2022.
