Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Diagnosis of angina pectoris as defined by Canadian Cardiovascular Society Classification (CCS I, II, III, IV) OR unstable angina pectoris (Braunwald Classification B\&C, I-II) OR patients with documented silent ischemia;
  • Treatment of a single de novo native coronary artery lesion in a major coronary artery in patients with single or multi-vessel disease; patients with multiple lesions can be included only if the other lesions do not require treatment;
  • Target vessel diameter at the lesion site is \>=2.50mm and \<=3.0mm in diameter (visual estimate);

  • Target lesion stenosis is \>50% and \<100% (visual estimate);

Exclusion

  • Patient has experienced a Q-wave or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction with documented total CK \>2 times normal within the preceding 24 hours and the CK and CK-MB enzymes remains above normal at the time of treatment;
  • Has unstable angina classified as Braunwald III B or C and A I-II-III, or is having a peri infarction;
  • Unprotected left main coronary disease with \>=50% stenosis;
  • Significant (\>50%) stenoses proximal or distal to the target lesion that might require revascularization or impede runoff;
  • Have an ostial target lesion;
  • Angiographic evidence of thrombus within target lesion;
  • Heavily calcified lesion and/or calcified lesion which cannot be successfully predilated;
  • Documented left ventricular ejection fraction \<=25%;
