Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • "All comer" patients
  • Age ≥18 years;
  • Presence of one or more coronary artery stenoses of 50% or more in a native coronary artery or in a saphenous venous or arterial bypass conduit suitable for coronary stent implantation.

  • Known moderate to severe hepatic impairment (alanine-aminotransferase ≥ 3 x ULN);
  • Planned surgery, including coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) as a staged procedure (hybrid) within 12 months of the index procedure, unless dual antiplatelet therapy is maintained throughout the peri-surgical period;
