Italian Absorb Registry (BVS-RAI)

February 3, 2016 updated by: Dr Giuseppe Steffenino, Ospedale Santa Croce-Carle Cuneo

Clinical Study on Absorb Polylactic, Reabsorbable Coronary Scaffold (RAI)

The investigators aim at evaluating the long-term (5-year) clinical outcome following Absorb BVS implantation in a real world, all-comers population of consecutive patients, as treated according to the indications, techniques and protocols used in the participating institutions.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

Long-term data after implantation of coronary BVS is scarce, especially in subgroups of patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease, and in those with complex coronary lesions and/or multivessel disease.

Although the use of BVS is very promising in younger patients with one or more of the above characteristics, evidence of benefit is not available.

The BVS-RAI Registry is a spontaneous initiative of a group of Italian interventional cardiologists who are interested in assessing the results of their interventional practice with BVS, by sharing data.

The BVS-RAI Registry has been created in joint-venture with Centro di Ricerche Farmacologiche e Biomediche "Mario Negri Sud", and is not recipient of funding or benefits originating from the BVS manufacturer or seller. BVS devices are regularly purchased by the participating centres.

Each participating centre is willing to input data of all consecutive patients treated with BVS, with a minimum of 50, and to report on follow-up for at least 5 years. Patient recruitment is not directed per protocol, nor is it rewarded. Patients who give informed consent are included in the BVS-RAI Registry after BVS implant has been performed following the indications, techniques and protocols used in each of the participating institutions.

Baseline patient clinical data, with special attention to biochemistry and drug treatment in patients with diabetes and CKD, as well as angiographic and intravascular imaging data are entered into a web-based Case Report Form.

Follow-up data from outpatient visits or phone interviews, subsequent admissions and coronary angiograms following the protocols being used in each of the participating institutions are prospectively collected and entered into the database.

All data in the CRF is visible to all registered participants at all times. Endpoints are: target lesion and target vessel failure, BVS thrombosis, new revascularisation, myocardial infarction and death. Documentation of those events is required for adjudication by an independent committee.

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

No older than 75 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

This is an all-comers study, and includes all consecutive patients who have been treated with 1 or more BVS in the study time lapse in each participating centre

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Successful implantation of 1 or more coronary BVS
  • Age <75 years
  • Patient's informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • None

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
Scaffold thrombosis
Time Frame: 1 year
acute, subacute, late and very late
1 year
Target lesion revascularization
Time Frame: 1 year
ischemia or angiographic-driven
1 year

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
MACE
Time Frame: 5 year
Cardiac death, TLR, myocardial infarction
5 year

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
