STENTYS Self-expanding Versus Balloon-expandable Stent in Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) (APPOSITION ll)

January 21, 2011 updated by: Stentys

Randomized Comparison Between the STENTYS Self-expanding Coronary Stent and a Balloon-expandable Stent in Acute Myocardial Infarction - APPOSITION II

Study hypothesis: the Stentys self-expandable Stent results into a better alignment of the struts to the vessel wall than a balloon-expandable stent within a few days after the procedure in acute myocardial infarction patients.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Stent strut malapposition and stent underexpansion are a common phenomenon in AMI as a result of the changing anatomy after an AMI has occurred (thrombus dissolution, resolution of spasm) with the traditional balloon-expandable stent treatment. A self-expanding stent might lead to better stent strut apposition as it follows the contours of the vessel wall due to its self-expanding properties. This might result into better long term clinical outcomes like lower thrombosis rates.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

  8. Any previous stent placement within 10mm (proximal or distal) of the target lesion.
  9. Co-morbid condition(s) that could limit the subject's ability to participate in the study or to comply with follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific integrity of the study.
