Conservative Versus Aggressive Revascularization in Patients With Intermediate Lesions Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Angiography Guidance Alone (SMART-CASE)

The aim of this study was to compare conservative versus aggressive strategy in patients with intermediate lesions with angiography guidance alone.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

To investigate whether conservative revascularization using criteria of 70% diameter stenosis would be non-inferior to aggressive revascularization using criteria of 50% diameter stenosis in coronary intermediate lesions, we conducted the Conservative Revascularization versus Aggressive Revascularization for Coronary Stenting with Everolimus-Eluting Stents (SMART-CASE) trial.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Intermediate coronary lesion(s) (diameter stenosis between 50% and 70% by quantitative coronary analysis)
  • Target lesion(s) must be located in a native coronary artery with diameter of ≥2.25 mm and ≤4.25 mm

Exclusion Criteria:

  • cardiogenic shock
  • myocardial infarction (MI) within 48 hours
  • left main lesion
  • drug-eluting stent implantation in the target vessel prior to enrollment
  • ≥2 chronic total occlusions in major coronary territories
  • history of bleeding diathesis or known coagulopathy
  • gastrointestinal or genitourinary bleeding within 3 months or major surgery within 2 months
  • platelet count <100,000 cells/mm3
  • planned elective surgical procedure that would necessitate interruption of thienopyridine during the first 6 months after enrollment
  • non-cardiac co-morbid conditions with life expectancy <1 year or that may result in protocol non-compliance (per site investigator's medical judgment).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: 1
The aggressive group
Stents were implanted in lesions with diameter stenosis >50% and RD ≥2.25 mm and balloon angioplasty was performed in lesions with diameter stenosis >50% and RD ≥2.0 mm and <2.25 mm.
Experimental: 2
The conservative group
Stenting was performed only in lesions with diameter stenosis >70% and reference diameter (RD) ≥2.25 mm
