What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
9-month Target Lesion Failure (TLF) Rate	The primary endpoint is 9-month target lesion failure (TLF) rate, defined as any ischemia-driven revascularization of the target lesion (TLR), Myocardial Infarction (MI) (Q-wave and non-Q-wave) related to the target vessel, or cardiac death.	Nine Month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
12 Month Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) Rate	Any ischemia-driven repeat percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), to improve blood flow, of the successfully treated target lesion or bypass surgery of the target vessel with a graft distally to the successfully treated target lesion.	Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR) Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Target Vessel Failure (TVF) Rate	Target vessel failure is any ischemia-driven revascularization of the target vessel, MI (Q-wave and non-Q-wave) related to the target vessel or death related to the target vessel. For the purposes of this protocol, if it cannot be determined with certainty whether the MI or death was related to the target vessel, it will be considered a TVF.	Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Myocardial Infarction (MI)(Q-wave and Non-Q-wave) Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Cardiac Death Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Non-cardiac Death Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month All Death Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Cardiac Death or MI Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month All Death or MI Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month All Death/MI/TVR Rate		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
12 Month Stent Thrombosis Rate (Definite or Probable by Academic Research Consortium [ARC] Definitions)		Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day, through 12 months
Periprocedural Endpoints: Technical Success Rate	Technical success: successful delivery and deployment of the study stent to the target vessel, without balloon rupture or embolization. Summarized per attempted study stent.	Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day
Clinical Procedural Success Rate	Clinical Procedural Success: lesion diameter stenosis < 30% in 2 near-orthogonal projections with TIMI 3 flow, as visually assessed by the physician, without the occurrence of in-hospital MI, TVR, or cardiac death. Summarized per patient.	Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 day
