Study population: BIOSTEMI ES includes only participants of the BIOSTEMI trial, i.e. patients with acute STEMI presenting within 24 hours of symptom onset undergoing primary PCI. At PCI, the randomly allocated stent (Orsiro® vs Xience®) was implanted in the culprit lesion of the target vessel.

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects that were enrolled in the BIOSTEMI trial (BASEC: 2016-00555),
  • Subject willing and able to provide oral informed consent.

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: Randomized Multicenter Comparison Between Ultrathin-strut Biodegradable Polymer Sirolimuseluting Stents and Durable Polymer Everolimus-eluting Stents for Patients With Acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The objective of the BIOSTEMI ES study is to assess the long-term clinical outcomes with the Orsiro ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent compared to the Xience thin-strut durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent up to 5 years of follow-up among patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, enrolled in the BIOSTEMI trial.

Read the detailed description

The objective of the BIOSTEMI ES study is to assess the long-term clinical outcomes with the Orsiro ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent compared to the Xience thin-strut durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent up to 5 years of follow-up among patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, enrolled in the BIOSTEMI trial.

  • In the BIOSTEMI randomized controlled clinical trial, the Orsiro ultrathin-strut bio degradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent was found superior to the best-in-class Xience thin-strut durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent with respect to target lesion failure at one-year follow-up among patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI (Iglesias JF, et al., Lancet 2019). The difference was driven by a lower risk of clinically indicated target lesion revascularization with the Orsiro ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent compared to the Xience thin-strut durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent.
  • Importantly, the difference between Orsiro stent and Xience stent accrues over time between one and two years of follow-up.
  • As per study protocol, the planned follow-up of patients included in the BIOSTEMI randomized controlled trial was 2 years.
  • The long-term clinical benefits the Orsiro ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent over the Xience thin-strut durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent beyond the polymer degradation period remain uncertain.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by University Hospital, Geneva at 10 sites in Switzerland.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 29 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Switzerland. 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?

Target lesion failure, composite of cardiac death, target vessel (Q-wave or non-Q-wave) myocardial re-infarction, or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization (time frame: 5 years of follow-up). 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 NCT05484310, which also lists 5 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 29 Nov 2023.
