Study summary

The primary objective of this registry is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Supraflex Family sirolimus-eluting coronary stent system in a 'real-world' patient population requiring stent implantation.

Read the detailed description

To overcome the potential drawback of the durable polymer a new generation of drug-eluting stent (DES) with a biodegradable polymer has been designed. The first-generation sirolimus-eluting or paclitaxel-eluting stents have a polymer release of antiproliferative drugs from a stainless steel stent platform. More recently, second generation DES have been developed not only to improve long-term DES safety but also to facilitate the procedure by using a cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) stent platform. Co-Cr is stronger and more radiopaque than stainless steel, and thus allows strut thickness and total stent volume to be reduced while maintaining radial strength leading to a more flexible and deliverable stent platform.

The Sahajanand Medical Technologies Pvt. Ltd. (SMT) has developed sirolimus-eluting stent that contain a biodegradable polymer coating and a Co-Cr stent platform. The purpose of this registry is to evaluate the Supraflex Family sirolimus-eluting stent in a 'real-world' patient population, in order to determine the safety and efficacy of the stent in wider usage.

Study population

Real-world patient population assigned for PCI who present with at least one angiographically documented coronary artery lesion suitable for percutaneous treatment with implantation of Supraflex Family sirolimus-eluting stent.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Age ≥ 18 years
  2. The patient, or legal representative, has been informed of the nature of the registry and has consented to participate and authorised the collection and release of his/her medical information by signing a Patient Form
  3. Treating physician has electively implanted at least one Supraflex Family stent as part of the patient's planned clinical care.
  4. The patient is willing and able to cooperate with study procedures and required follow up visits

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Women with known pregnancy or who are lactating
  2. High probability of non-adherence to the follow-up requirements (due to social, psychological or medical reasons)
  3. Currently participating in another study that has not completed the primary endpoint or that clinically interferes with the current registry requirements
  4. Planned surgery within 6-month of PCI unless dual anti- therapy is maintained throughout the peri-surgical period
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Target Lesion Failure (TLF)

    TLF defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (Q wave and non-Q wave), or clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (TLR) by percutaneous or surgical methods.

    Time frame: 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Target Vessel Failure (TVF)

    TVF defined as a composite endpoint of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically-driven target vessel revascularization (TVR)

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)

    MACE defined as a composite endpoint of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (Q wave and non-Q wave), emergent coronary bypass surgery, or repeat target lesion revascularization (clinically driven/clinically indicated) by percutaneous or surgical methods

    Time frame: 12 months

  3. Stent Thrombosis

    Stent thrombosis rates according to ARC classification

    Time frame: 12 months

  4. All Deaths

    Cardiac death and non-cardiac death (vascular and non-cardiovascular)

    Time frame: 12 months

  5. Any Myocardial Infarction (MI)

    Q wave and non-Q wave MI

    Time frame: 12 months

  6. Any Repeat Revascularization

    Target lesion revascularization (TLR) and target vessel revascularization (TVR)

    Time frame: 12 months
