About this study

Official title: Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Study on the Treatment of Stent Underexpansion Caused by Calcification Using Intravascular Lithotripsy

Our aim is to investigate the efficacy and safety of intravascular lithotripsy(IVL) in the treatment of stent underexpansion caused by calcification through a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. Patients with inadequate stent expansion due to calcification detected by intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group received IVL in addition to high-pressure balloon post-dilation, while the control group only received high-pressure balloon post-dilation. Follow up for 1 year is conducted to determine the safety and efficacy of IVL application based on the primary efficacy endpoint, key secondary efficacy endpoint, other secondary efficacy endpoint, and safety endpoint.

Read the detailed description

In order to investigate the effectiveness and safety of intravascular lithotripsy(IVL) in patients with calcium induced stent insufficiency, we designed a prospective, randomized, controlled, single blind, multicenter, and superior efficacy clinical trial. We include a real-world population of patients who had stent underexpansion due to calcification detected by intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) in the target vessel after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. In addition to routine clinical treatment, IVUS testing was performed on patients after PCI. Patients who met the criteria for stent underexpansion detected by IVUS are randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group received IVL intervention on the basis of high-pressure balloon post-dilation, while the control group received more aggressive high-pressure balloon post-dilation treatment. The satisfaction rate of stent dilation detected by IVUS in both groups after IVL or high-pressure balloon post-dilation was taken as the main efficacy endpoint. MACE events (composed of cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction and target vascular revascularization) from PCI to one-year follow-up are evaluated. And the acquisition of lumen after treatment is used as other secondary efficacy endpoints. We use postoperative complications such as coronary artery spasm, dissection, acute occlusion, and persistent ventricular arrhythmia as safety endpoints.

Being tested
intravascular lithotripsy, high-pressure ballon

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • intravascular lithotripsyDevice

    The intravascular lithotripsy can intermittently release acoustic pressure waves at the site of vascular calcification lesions, thereby achieving the goal of rupturing calcified plaques; After the rupture of calcified plaques, the vascular calcification lesions can be fully dilated with the help of lower balloon inflation pressure.

  • high-pressure ballonDevice

    High pressure balloon dilation, as the main method for traditional treatment of insufficient stent expansion caused by calcification, has a good therapeutic effect on insufficient stent expansion caused by calcification

What is being measured

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

  1. Satisfaction Rate of Stent Expansion[Effcacy]

    Satisfied stent expansion is defined as meeting the standard of good expansion after stent implantation through IVUS after PCI

    Measured: immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Major Cardiovascular Events[Effcacy]

    a composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction and target vessel revascularization

    Measured: 1 year after after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)

  2. Lumen Obtainment after PCI[Effcacy]

    changes in lumen area after treatment

    Measured: immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)

  3. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Complications[Safety]

    Postoperative complications such as coronary spasm, dissection, acute occlusion, persistent ventricular arrhythmia, etc

    Measured: immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intravascular lithotripsy and high-pressure ballon in people with Intravascular Lithotripsy, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases.

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 8 inclusion and 20 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 29 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Kefei Dou, Doctor (13801032912, drdoukefei@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Satisfaction Rate of Stent Expansion[Effcacy] (time frame: immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)). 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 29 Jul 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
