Elixir Medical Clinical Evaluation of the Novolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System: A Randomized Study With a Single-Arm Registry "EXCELLA II STUDY"
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Elixir Medical Corporation, November 2008
Sponsored by: Elixir Medical Corporation
Information provided by: Elixir Medical Corporation
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00792753
  Purpose

Randomized Study To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Elixir Medical Novolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System with Durable Polymer through the assessment of clinical, angiographic and IVUS endpoints as compared to the concurrently enrolled Medtronic Zotarolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System in a randomized, single blind study of up to 200 male and female patients.

Single-Arm Registry To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Elixir Medical Novolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System with Bioabsorbable Polymer through the assessment of clinical, angiographic and IVUS endpoints as compared to the Endeavor control in a single-arm registry enrolling up to 100 male and female patients.

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The patient has a planned intervention of a single lesion in one or two separate major epicardial territories. Each lesion/vessel must meet the following criteria:
  • De novo
  • The target lesion reference site must be visually estimated to be > 2.5 mm and < 3.5 mm in diameter.
  • The target vessel must be a major coronary artery or major branch with a visually estimated stenosis of > 50% and <100%.
  • The visually estimated target lesion must be able to be covered by a single, 14, 18 or 28mm stent Elixir Stent or a single 14, 18, 24 or 30mm Endeavor Stent. Note that the 8mm Endeavor Stent will not be used in this study.
  • Maximum lesion length is 24 mm.
  • > TIMI 1 coronary flow.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The patient has a known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, heparin, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, mTOR inhibitor class drugs, cobalt chromium alloy, methacrylate or polylactide polymer, or sensitivity to contrast which cannot be adequately premedicated.
  • There will be an untreated significant lesion of > 40% diameter stenosis remaining proximal or distal to the target site after the planned intervention.
  • Total occlusion or TIMI 0 coronary flow in the target vessel.
  • Restenosis lesion
  • The proximal target vessel or target lesion is severely calcified by visual assessment.
  • Aorto-ostial location, unprotected left main lesion location, or a lesion within 5 mm of the origin of the LAD or LCX.
  • Lesion involvement of a significant side branch (branch diameter > 2 mm) that would be covered by stenting.
  • The patient has suffered a myocardial infarction with total creatine kinase (CK) >2 times normal within the past 72 hours (exactly three days).
  • The patient has a history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or will refuse blood transfusions.
  • The patient suffered a stroke, transient ischemic neurological attack (TIA) or significant gastrointestinal (GI) bleed within the past six months.
  • The patient has renal insufficiency as determined by a creatinine of > 2.0mg/dl.
  • The target lesion, or the target vessel proximal to the target lesion, contains thrombus.
  • Documented left ventricular ejection fraction of < 25%.
  • The patient is a recipient of a heart transplant.
  • The patient has extensive peripheral vascular disease that precludes safe 6 French sheath insertion or extreme anti-coagulation.
