Study summary

Sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) has been world-widely used in clinical practice in treating patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The efficacy and safety of Cypher SES (Cordis, MA) has been proved by several randomized clinical trials. Here the investigators design a prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical study in purpose of identifying the non-inferiority in the efficacy and safety in treating CAD patients by Firebird 2 SES (Microport, Shanghai), comparing with Cypher SES.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Firebird 2 stent group

    patients who were implated with Firebird 2 SES

    Device: Firebird 2 SES

  • Active comparator
    Cypher Stent Group

    patients who were implanted with Cypher SES

    Device: Cypher SES

Interventions

  • DeviceFirebird 2 SES

    The FIREBIRD2™ Rapamycin-Eluting CoCr Coronary Stent is the second generation DES of MicroPort, which based on the new cobalt chromium alloy stent platform. It uses polyolefin polymer, which makes the coating property very remarkable.

  • DeviceCypher SES

    The Cypher SES is based on the 316L platform with Controlled-release, nonresorbable, elastomeric polymer coating.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. in-stent late lumen loss at 9 months' angiographic follow-up

    Late luminal loss was defined as the difference between the minimal luminal diameter immediately after the placement of the stent and the minimal luminal diameter at 9 months

    Time frame: 9 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. target vessel failure

    defined as the occurrence of any of the following within 1 and 2 years after the index procedure: death from cardiac causes, Q-wave or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction, or revascularizationof the target vessel (emergency or elective coronaryartery bypass grafting \[CABG\] or repeated percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty \[PTCA\]).

    Time frame: 1, and 2 years after index procedure
