The study objective is the assessment of safety and clinical performance of Freesolve 35- and 40-mm in de novo coronary artery lesions up to 38 mm length.
In the study presented here, an extension of the Freesolve size range (35 and 40 mm scaffold length) will be investigated with the aim of assessment the safety and clinical performance of 35 and 40 mm Freesolve in de novo coronary artery lesions up to 38 mm in length to support CE certification of these sizes.
BIOMAG-LL is a pre-marketing study. It is a prospective, international, multi-center, single arm trial. The primary endpoint of the study will be Target Lesion Failure (TLF) rate at 12 months. Clinical follow-up will be conducted at 1, 6, 12, 36, and 60 months post-procedure.
The total duration of the study is approximately six and a half years, including the fifteen-month recruitment phase and the five-year follow-up period. A sample size of 100 patients is expected.
In addition, it is intended to conduct a pharmacokinetic substudy. The objective of this substudy is to describe the pharmacokinetics of sirolimus delivered by Freesolve. For this purpose, 15 patients will be prospectively enrolled in the substudy with a whole blood sample collected up to seven days after the procedure.

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.
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.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Percentage of Participants With Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 Months Post-Index Procedure
The primary endpoint will be Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 months. TLF is a composite of Cardiac Death, Target Vessel Q-wave or non-Q wave MI, or clinically driven Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR).
Time frame: 12 Months
Started Feb 2025 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jun 2027, 28 months after the start.
Of 177 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Coronary Artery Disease, half reached primary completion within 24 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 40. This study's planned 28 months is above that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 930 studies reached it within 30 months; a quarter within 15 and three quarters within 50.
