The main objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Cypher™ sirolimus-eluting stent in reducing angiographic in-lesion late loss in patients with an in-stent restenotic native coronary artery lesion.
This is a multicenter (11 sites), non-randomized study. Patients who meet the eligibility criteria will be treated with the Cypher™ sirolimus-eluting stent. All patients will have a repeat angiography at six months post-procedure and will be additionally followed clinically at 1, 6 and 9 months and up to 3 years. The results of this study will be compared with the outcome of the GAMMA I / II as the historical control.
