Intracoronary Stenting and Restenosis - Randomized Trial of Drug-eluting Stent Implantation or Drug-coated Balloon Angioplasty According to Neointima Morphology in Drug-eluting Stent Restenosis 5
Drug eluting stent (DES)Drug coated ballloon (DCB)
Drug eluting stent (DES): DES-implantation with an everolimus-eluting stent (Xience, Abbott Vascular)
Drug coated ballloon (DCB): DCB angioplasty with any commercially available drug-coated balloon
Study summary
The hypothesis of the study is, that there is a significant interaction in treatment effect between the OCT pattern of neointima (heterogeneous or homogeneous) and the type of percutaneous coronary intervention (drug-eluting stent or drug-coated balloon) in patients with in-stent restenosis.
