Lead Sponsor:

Boston Scientific Corporation

Conditions:

Coronary Restenosis

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

PHASE2

PHASE3

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TAXUS Express2 Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System as compared to brachytherapy in patients experiencing in-stent re...

Detailed Description

Percutaneous approaches to in-stent restenosis (ISR) have included balloon angioplasty alone, rotational atherectomy, cutting balloon angioplasty, directional coronary atherectomy, excimer laser angio...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Cumulative target lesion length is \</= 46 mm (visual estimate).
  • Reference vessel diameter (RVD) is \>/= 2.5 and \</= 3.75 mm (visual estimate)
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is \>/= 25%

Exclusion

  • Any previous or planned treatment with a non-study anti-restenotic drug-coated or drug-eluting coronary stent in the target vessel. (Note:previous or planned treatment with heparin or phosphorylcholine coated stents is acceptable, as long as, the procedure with the non-study stent meets the protocol defined criteria for non-target lesion interventions.)
  • Previous or planned treatment with intra-coronary brachytherapy (gamma or beta source) in the target vessel
  • Previous external radiotherapy to the heart or target vessel area
  • Known genetic radiation sensitivity disorders (i.e. ataxia-telangiectasia, etc.)
  • Side branch of the target lesion includes ostial narrowing \>/= 50% diameter stenosis (DS) and is \>/= 2.0 mm diameter
  • Target lesion has been previously treated for ISR with the placement of a second stent(s), which covers \>/= 50% of the original stent length (a true "stent sandwich")
  • Target vessel is pre-treated with an unapproved device, directional or rotational coronary atherectomy, laser, or transluminal extraction catheter immediately prior to delivery of randomized treatment (stent placement or intra-coronary brachytherapy)
  • Recent myocardial infarction (MI) (symptom onset \</= 72 hours prior to randomization)
  • CK-MB \>2x the local laboratory's upper limit of normal (ULN) (refers to a measured value on the day of the index procedure as drawn per protocol)
  • Anticipated treatment with warfarin during any period in the 6 months post index procedure
  • Anticipated treatment with paclitaxel, oral rapamycin or colchicine during any period in the 9 months post index procedure
  • Planned use of both the study stent and a non-study stent (i.e., commercial stent) in the treatment of the target lesion
