Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new angioplasty catheter, AngioSculpt® for the treatment of bifurcation lesions (blockages occurring at branch points) in coronary arteries.

Detailed Description

Background: Bifurcation lesions, which consist of a narrowing occurring at branch points of coronary arteries, typically involve both the main branch (parent vessel) and an adjacent side branch. These...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • At least 18 years of age and able to give informed consent.
  • Patients with significant (\> 50% diameter stenosis) native coronary artery disease involving a bifurcation and the ostium of the side branch vessel (Medina class (x, x, 1)) including stable or unstable angina and silent ischemia.
  • Patients with lesions suitable for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Exclusion

  • Concomitant use of Rotablator, Cutting Balloon, or investigational coronary devices.
  • Additional planned coronary interventions for a non-target lesion within 9 months of the study procedure.
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction \< 35%
  • Patients refusing or not candidates for emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)surgery
  • Uncontrolled severe hypertension (systolic BP \>180 mm Hg or diastolic BP \>110 mm Hg)
  • Patients who are not candidates for chronic treatment with aspirin or Clopidogrel/Ticlopidine
  • Severe renal failure with creatinine \>2.0 mg/dL
  • Untreated pre-procedural hemoglobin \<10 g/dL
  • Coagulopathy manifested by platelet count \<100,000 or International Normalized ratio (INR) \>2.0 (INR is only required in patients who have taken warfarin within 2 weeks of enrollment)
  • Women who are known or suspected to be pregnant
  • Patients in cardiogenic shock
  • Acute myocardial infarction (MI) within the past 72 hours, and/or elevated CPK (and abnormal Troponin-I) at the time of enrollment
  • Patients with a life expectancy of less than 1 year
  • Target main branch vessel \< 2.5 mm in diameter
  • Target main branch lesion \> 30 mm in length
  • Intended use of a bare metal stent (BMS) in the main branch
  • Target side branch vessel \< 2.0 mm in diameter
  • Target side branch lesion \> 15 mm in length
  • Target bifurcation angle \> 90º (distal angle)
  • Totally obstructed target coronary arteries (TIMI 0 or 1 flow)
  • Target bifurcation lesion within a previously placed stent (i.e. in-stent restenosis (ISR))
  • Target bifurcation lesion within a surgical conduit (e.g. saphenous vein or internal mammary)
  • Target lesion demonstrating severe dissection prior to planned deployment of the AngioSculpt device
  • Unprotected Left Main diameter stenosis ≥ 50%
  • Visible thrombus (by angiography) at target lesion site
  • Coronary spasm in the absence of a significant stenosis
  • Patients who are concurrently participating in an investigational study when such participation could confound the treatment or outcomes of this study
