Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the paclitaxel releasing balloon in patients with in-stent restenosis in a coronary artery.

Detailed Description

All patients are treated with the paclitaxel releasing balloon Pantera Lux. The indication is in-stent restenosis in either bare metal stent (BMS) or drug eluting stent (DES). Clinical follow up visi...

  • Written patient informed consent available
  • Patients with stable, unstable or documented silent angina pectoris
  • Patient eligible for percutaneous coronary intervention
  • Patient acceptable candidate for coronary artery bypass surgery
  • Patients with a single restenotic lesion in a previously stented area of a coronary artery (irrelevant whether BMS or DES related)
  • Target reference vessel diameter (visual estimation): 2 - 4 mm
  • Target lesion length (visual estimation): 8 - 28 mm

Exclusion

  • Left ventricular ejection fraction of \< 30%

  • Notes:
  • Laboratory assessments to be done within 24 hours prior to intervention. Patients with CKMB and/or troponin T or I \> 2 fold the upper limit of normal must not be included in the trial.
  • Patients with planned major surgery within 3 months after planned coronary intervention and/or risk of either acetylsalicylic acid of clopidogrel cessation
  • Lesion length longer than length of available treatment balloon
  • Impaired renal function (serum creatinine \> 2.0mg/dl or 177 micro mol/l, determined within 72 hours prior to intervention)
  • Additional coronary lesions (restenotic or de novo) in the same vessel which requires treatment
  • Totally occluded coronary artery (Mehran classification IV and TIMI flow 0)
  • Target lesion located in vessel bifurcation
  • Previous and/or planned brachytherapy of target vessel
  • Target lesion located in left main coronary artery
  • Stroke or TIA \< 6 months prior to procedure
  • Patient with signs of a cardiogenic shock
  • Patient under ongoing systemic immunosuppressive therapy with paclitaxel or agents of the -limus group (i.e. sirolimus, tacrolimus, everolimus)
  • Surgeries of any kind within 30 days prior to screening
  • Patient with bleeding diathesis in whom anticoagulation or antiplatelet medication is contraindicated
  • Known allergies to anti-platelet-, anticoagulation therapy, contrast media or paclitaxel
  • Pregnant and/or breast-feeding females or females who intend to become pregnant (pregnancy test required for females of child-bearing potential)
  • Patient with a life expectancy of less than one year
  • Patient currently enrolled in other investigational device or drug trial
  • Patient with known incompliance to medical (antiplatelet, anticoagulation) therapy
  • Patient not able or willing to adhere to follow-up visits including follow-up angiography
