A Randomized Clinical Evaluation of the BioFreedom™ Stent (Leaders Free)

August 17, 2015 updated by: Biosensors Europe SA

A Prospective Randomized Comparison of the BioFreedom Biolimus A9 Drug Coated Stent Versus the Gazelle Bare Metal Stent in Patients With High Risk of Bleeding.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that a BioFreedom™ Drug Coated Stent is non-inferior to a bare metal stent at one year as measured by the composite safety endpoint of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and definite/probable stent thrombosis, and that its efficacy is superior to a bare metal stent as measured by clinically driven TLR at one year.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Any indication for PCI-S in patients deemed at high risk for bleeding and candidates for 1 month DAPT. This includes candidates with stable angina, silent ischemia, ACS (STEMI and non-STEMI), non-native lesions and in-stent restenosis. Patients must provide written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Pregnancy
  2. Patients expected not to comply with 1 month DAPT
  3. Patients requiring a planned staged PCI procedure more than one week after the index procedure
  4. Procedure planned to require non-study stents, or stand alone POBA or stand-alone atherectomy
  5. Active bleeding at the time of inclusion
  6. Reference vessel diameter <2.25 - >4.0mm
  7. Cardiogenic shock
  8. Compliance with long-term single anti-platelet therapy unlikely
  9. A known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, clopidogrel (or prasugrel, or ticagrelor if applicable), stainless steel, Biolimus A9 or a sensitivity to contrast media, which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
  10. Participation in another clinical trial (12 months after index procedure).
