Acrobat Coronary Stent System Effectiveness European Study (ACES)

August 25, 2014 updated by: Svelte Medical Systems Europe

Acrobat Coronary Stent System Effectiveness European Study (European Multicenter Effectiveness Randomized Study of Svelte Medical Systems Acrobat Stent on a Wire Compared to Other BMS PCI in de Novo Coronary Lesions) ACES Trial

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to demonstrate the clinical benefit and impact on resource utilization of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) with the Svelte Acrobat Stent System compared to any other CE marked bare metal stent (BMS) implantable via direct stenting or after lesion pre-dilation, in patients with coronary lesions that are eligible for direct stenting and who are recruited and treated so as to reflect real-life routine practice.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

The main objectives of this study are to test the following hypotheses:

  1. The evaluated stent is clinically non-inferior to control BMS in terms of freedom of MACE
  2. The evaluated stent is clinically beneficial compared to control BMS by reducing exposure to radiations, amount of contrast medium administered, procedure time, as well as amount of administered heparin,
  3. The evaluated stent does not result in more frequent adverse events than control BMS,
  4. The evaluated stent improves direct stenting success while not decreasing procedural success compared to control BMS.

  5. Resource utilization (R.U.):

    1. Hospital-perspective resource utilization during the index admission and index procedure is not greater with evaluated the stent and potentially lower than with control BMS
    2. Resource utilization over a 6-month time-horizon, in relation to routine follow-up and MACE, is not greater with the evaluated stent than with control BMS.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patients free of Major Adverse Cardiac Event ("MACE-free patients")
Time Frame: From the date and time of randomization until 6 months after the index procedure
Major Adverse Cardiac Event ("MACE") is defined here as device-oriented composite endpoint that includes, in hierarchical order: Cardiac death (All deaths are considered cardiac unless an unequivocal non-cardiac cause can be established), Myocardial Infarction ("MI"), Target Lesion Revascularization ("TLR").
From the date and time of randomization until 6 months after the index procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

  5. Stent thrombosis up to 6 months
  6. Other serious adverse events
6 months

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment.
