AGENT DCB STANCE: Safety and Effectiveness Study of AGENT Drug-Coated Balloon Compared to Standard of Care Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Treatment for de Novo Coronary Lesions

AGENT DCB STANCE: AGENT Drug-Coated Balloon for STent AvoidANCE in PCI for De Novo Coronary Artery Disease


Sponsor

Boston Scientific Corporation

Enrollment

1,616 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

AGENT DCB STANCE is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, 1:1 randomized controlled study designed to assess the safety and effectiveness of a treatment strategy with the AGENT Drug-Coated Balloon compared to standard of care percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment with drug eluting stent (DES) and/or balloon angioplasty in patients with de novo coronary lesions. Subjects must have a de novo target lesion located in a native coronary artery.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria9

  • Subject must be at least 18 years of age.
  • Subject (or legal guardian) understands the trial requirements and the treatment procedures and provides written informed consent before any trial-specific tests or procedures are performed.
  • Subject is eligible for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
  • Subject is willing to comply with all protocol-required follow-up evaluation.
  • Women of child-bearing potential must agree to use a reliable method of contraception from the time of screening through 12 months after the index procedure.
  • Target lesion is a de novo lesion located in a native coronary artery
  • Target lesion must have visually estimated stenosis \> 50% and \< 100% in symptomatic subjects (\>70% and \<100% in asymptomatic subjects) prior to lesion pre-dilation.
  • Target lesion must be successfully pre-dilated.
  • If a non-target lesion is treated, it must be treated first and must be deemed a success.

Exclusion Criteria25

  • Subject has other serious medical illness (e.g. cancer, congestive heart failure) that may reduce life expectancy to less than 12 months.
  • Subject has current problems with substance abuse (e.g. alcohol, cocaine, heroin, etc.).
  • Subject has planned procedure that may cause non-compliance with the protocol or confound data interpretation.
  • Subject is participating in another investigational drug or device clinical study that has not reached its primary endpoint.
  • Subject intends to participate in another investigational drug or device clinical study within 12 months after the index procedure.
  • Subject is a woman who is pregnant or nursing. A pregnancy test must be performed within 7 days prior to the index procedure, except for women who definitely do not have child-bearing potential.
  • Subject has left ventricular ejection fraction known to be \< 30%.
  • Subject had PCI or other coronary interventions within the last 30 days.
  • Subject has planned PCI or CABG after the index procedure.
  • Subject had STEMI or QWMI \<72h prior to the index procedure.
  • Subject presents with NSTEMI and rising biomarkers, or ongoing chest pain or is hemodynamically unstable.
  • Subject has cardiogenic shock (SBP \< 80 mmHg requiring inotropes, IABP or fluid support).
  • Subject has history (within 6 months prior to the index procedure) of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV heart failure.
  • Subject is considered not able to tolerate at least 30 seconds of coronary occlusion of the target lesion.
  • Subject has known allergy to paclitaxel or other components of the used medical devices.
  • Subject has known hypersensitivity or contraindication to contrast dye that in the opinion of the investigator cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
  • Subject has intolerance to antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulants required for procedure.
  • Subject has platelet count \< 100k/mm3 (risk of bleeding) or \> 700k/mm3.
  • Subject with renal insufficiency (creatinine ≥2.0 mg/dl) or failure (dialysis dependent).
  • In-stent restenosis.
  • Target lesion is located within a saphenous vein or arterial graft.
  • Target lesion is a total occlusion or has evidence of thrombus present in the target vessel.
  • Target lesion is severely calcified by angiography or has \> 270° calcium arc on intravascular imaging or requires atherectomy.
  • Subject has unprotected left main coronary artery disease (\>50% diameter stenosis) or three-vessel coronary disease requiring revascularization of all 3 vessels.
  • Subject with planned treatment of lesion involving aortic ostial location.
