Safety and Efficacy of the CRE8 Stent for the Treatment of De Novo Coronary Artery Lesions

A Prospective, Multi-center, Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of the CRE8 Sirolimus-Eluting Stent Versus the RESOLUTE Zotarolimus-Eluting Stent in the Treatment of Patients With De Novo Coronary Artery Lesions

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and deliverability of the CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent and the RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.

Study Overview

• Status: Unknown
• Conditions: Coronary Artery Disease
• Intervention / Treatment: Device: CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent; Device: RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent

Detailed Description

This study consists of a randomized controlled cohort and a long stent observational cohort. The randomized controlled trial is a prospective, multi-center, non-inferior, randomized controlled trial. The control device (RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent) used in this trial was provided by Medtronic. RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent has been already approved by China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) in 2009 and become commercially available in Chinese market. 400 patients enrolled in this trial will be randomly assigned to CRE8 group (n=200) and RESOLUTE group (n=200) in a 1:1 ratio. The long stent observational trial plans to enroll 30 consecutive patients. Patients in the observational cohort will receive the long CRE8 stent with length 38mm.All 430 patients will be required to receive clinical follow-up at 1 month, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months and annually up to 5 years after the procedure, and angiographic follow-up at 9 months after the procedure. The primary endpoint is in-stent LLL at 9 months after the procedure, and the secondary endpoints are device success rate, device-oriented cardiovascular composite endpoint, patient-oriented cardiovascular composite endpoint and stent thrombosis.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: CRE8 group; CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent system	Device: CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent; The CRE8 stent is a flexible implantable device that can be expanded using a PTCA catheter. The stent is made of Cobalt chromium alloy and is coated with i-carbofilm.The outer surface of the stent has dedicated grooves for containing the pharmaceutical formulation, which is composed of the drug sirolimus and a mixture of long chain fatty acids.
Active Comparator: RESOLUTE group; RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent system	Device: RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent; The RESOLUTE stent is a flexible implantable device that can be expanded using a PTCA catheter. The stent is made of Cobalt chromium tungsten alloy. It has been approved by CFDA in 2009 and commercially available in Chinese market
