An observational study in Coronary Artery Disease, sponsored by Erasmus Medical Center. Completed. Open to participants aged 21 Years to 100 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-01-29.
Sponsored by Erasmus Medical Center · Observational
An investigator-driven, retrospective study to compare long-term survival-data (10-year follow-up) of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), previously enrolled in the SYNTAX trial, who were randomized to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using a paclitaxel (TAXUS) drug-eluting-stent (DES) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Patients enrolled in the SYNTAX trial and registries had to be diagnosed with three-vessel (3VD) or left main (LM) coronary artery disease. The vessels (diameter ≥1.5 mm and significant stenosis > 50%) deemed important to revascularize were determined by the Heart Team prior to randomization. The group of 3VD consists of patients with significant stenosis in vessels supplying all three major epicardial territories in absence of LM disease, as determined by the site investigators. The group of patients with LM disease consists of patients with a significant stenosis of the left main coronary artery, irrespective of additional vessel disease.
Patients which have previously been enrolled in the SYNTAX trial (randomized and registry patients)
Patients which were randomized to undergo CABG.
Other: No intervention will take place for this retrospective and observational study.
Patients which were randomized to undergo PCI.
Other: No intervention will take place for this retrospective and observational study.
Patients for whom only one treatment option was suitable were included into a parallel, nested registry: the CABG registry for PCI-ineligible patients.
