Study summary

Evaluate angiographic performance in long lesions of Sirolimus Eluting Balloon Magic Touch by Concept Medical

Read the detailed description

To assess the angiographic performance of the Magic Touch Sirolimus-Coated Balloon (SCB) at 9 months follow-up after PCI for de novo CAD.

Primary end-points:

  • Late lumen loss (LLL) at the SCB-treated segment within 9 months after the index procedure;
  • Mean net lumen diameter gain at the SCB-treated segment at 9 months angiographic follow-up.

Secondary end-points:

  • Procedural success defined as both SCB delivery and inflation at the "target" lesion site with \<30% diameter stenosis (DS) in the SCB-treated segment and distal Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3 flow;
  • Peri-procedural myocardial infarction (PMI) defined according to the EXCEL trial (creatinine kinase myocardial band) or Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions definitions (troponin);
  • Binary restenosis rate at the SCB-treated segment at 9 months angiographic follow-up;
  • A Device Oriented Composite End-point (DOCE) and its singular components (cardiac death, any target-vessel myocardial infarction excluding PMI, ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization) in-hospital, within 7 days after PCI; phone follow-up at 30-day (+/- 7 days) and 12 months (+/- 1 month) and a follow-up visit at 9 months (+/- 1 month). Any definite/probable SCB-treated segment thrombosis (in-hospital, within 7 days after PCI and at 30-day, 9-month, 1-year follow-up).

Inclusion criteria

  1. Age >18 years

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

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.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

GFR and eGFR (kidney filtering)

GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².

Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.

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.

Timeline

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from May 2023 to primary completion in Oct 2025, 28 months.

Of 13 interventional studies with no phase under Coronary Restenosis, half reached primary completion within 44 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 28 and three quarters within 61. This study's 28 months is below that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Dec 3, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
