Overview
Factorial 2x2, all-comer, multicentre, randomized controlled trial (ratio 1:1:1:1). First, the study will compare (first randomization) the non-inferiority in target lesion failure of angiolite stent versus Xience stent family. Immediately after the first randomization, the study compares (second randomization) the superiority in bleeding Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 2, 3, or 5 of abbreviated DAPT versus standard of care. Both primary endpoints will be evaluated at 12 months of follow-up. The study will be open-label for the stent type and the antiplatelet regimen.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age >18 - < 95 years;
- Presence of one or more coronary artery stenosis of 50% or more in a native coronary artery or in a saphenous venous or arterial bypass conduit suitable for coronary stent implantation. The vessel should have a reference vessel diameter of at least 2.00 mm (no limitation on the number of treated lesions, vessels, or lesion length);
- Able to provide informed consent and willing to participate in the trial.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Known intolerance to acetylsalicylic acid, P2Y12 inhibitors (clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor), sirolimus, everolimus, or chromium-cobalt.;
- Known severe hepatic impairment Child-Pug stage C;
- Prior PCI (not related to the study) performed in the last 45 days;
- Planned non-cardiac surgery during the first month after PCI, unless dual antiplatelet therapy is maintained throughout the peri-surgical period;
- Planned coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or any other cardiac surgery (valvular for instance) following index PCI;
- Active major bleeding or major surgery within the last 30 days;
- Known stroke (any type) within the 30 days prior to the randomization;
- Women of childbearing potential being defined as woman from the onset of menstruation (menarche) until they become postmenopausal, unless they are permanently sterile. A postmenopausal state is clarified as having no menstrual periods for 12 consecutive months without any other medical cause. Women who have undergone permanent sterilization methods, including hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, and bilateral oophorectomy, can be enrolled in the study
- Currently participating in another randomized controlled trial and not yet at its primary endpoint;
- Life expectancy less than one year due to non-cardiovascular comorbidity.
