De-Adoption of Beta-Blockers in Patients With Stable Ischemic Heart Disease
Patients with heart disease are often prescribed many medications and these patients may experience drug interactions or negative drug related side effects. With newer medications and treatments available, it is not well known whether older drugs, such as beta-blockers, are still an effective and safe option for treating heart disease. …
Further Lipid-Lowering With PCSK9 Inhibitors for Cardiovascular Outcomes in High-Risk Coronary Plaques Assessed by CT Angiography
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of PCSK9 inhibitors in addition to the background lipid-modifying therapy (LMT), compared with placebo plus background LMT in terms of clinical outcomes in patients with coronary CT angiography (CCTA)-detected high-risk plaques.
Algorithm-based Tailoring of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy to Improve Outcomes Following Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
The use of aspirin combined with a P2Y12 inhibitor (dual antiplatelet therapy, DAPT) represents the standard of care for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation. The TAILOR-DAPT trial aims to investigate the benefits of a score-based decision-making algorithm to guide DAPT duration compared to a standard-of-care DAPT …
Efficacy and Safety of Colchicine After PCI
Colchicine (0.5 mg/day) was recommended by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2023 for the anti-inflammatory treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD). However, colchicine is still not approved for CHD treatment in China. There is no large-scale clinical evidence that colchicine can be used to treat Chinese patients with …
INSIGHTFUL-FFR Clinical Trial
Recently, a new device for measuring physiological lesion severity, the pressure microcatheter, was introduced. The pressure microcatheter provides similar information to the conventional measurement technique but differs as it is easily advanced on a customary coronary wire and simplifies pullback maneuvers. The pressure microcatheter has been shown to provide comparable …
Comparison of an Ultra-low Strut Thickness Everolimus-eluting Biodegradable Polymer Stent Versus Durable Polymer Everolimus-eluting Stents in Patients Treated with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The objective of this randomized study is to compare the safety and efficacy of the ultra-low strut thickness everolimus-eluting biodegradable polymer Evermine50 stent to the everolimus-eluting family stents (durable polymer everolimus-eluting Xience or Promus stents) in a population-based setting with coronary artery stenosis treated with percutaneous coronary intervention
MiECC Versus Conventional Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Cardiac Surgery (MiECS)
MiECS is one of the largest multicentre randomised controlled trials on extracorporeal circulation conducted under the auspices of Minimal Invasive Extracorporeal Technologies International Society (MiECTiS). It is designed to ultimately address the emerging effectiveness of MiECC systems in the light of modern perfusion practice worldwide. The primary hypothesis is that …
Comparison of PROVISIONal 1-stent Strategy With DEB Versus Planned 2-stent Strategy in Coronary Bifurcation Lesions.
[The Purpose of the Clinical Study] The purpose of this randomized comparison study is to compare the 1-stent strategy with a drug-eluting balloon and the 2-stent strategy in patients with non-LM coronary true-bifurcation lesions. [Hypothesis] In this study, the researchers intend to verify the hypothesis that the 1-stent strategy with …
Distal Versus Conventional Transradial Artery Access for Coronary Catheterization in Patients With STEMI
Recently, a novel distal transradial, through anatomical snuffbox, approach has been proposed for undertaking percutaneous coronary angiography and interventions. The existing literature has evaluated distal transradial access (dTRA) as a feasible and safe approach, with faster hemostasis, lower rates of periprocedural complications and reduced incidence of radial artery occlusion (RAO). …
Treatment of Functionally Non-significant Vulnerable Plaques in Patients With Multivessel ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction The VULNERABLE Trial
The study aims to compare a preventive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) strategy vs. OMT for treatment of non-functionally significant non-culprit lesions presenting with optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings indicative of vulnerable plaque, in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel disease.
