The Valentines Trial

Eurocor GmbH276 enrolled

Overview

The primary objective of this multi-center, international, short term registry is to assess clinical success and efficacy of the paclitaxel eluting balloon treatment for in-stent restenosis at 6-9 months follow up. Clinical success defined as freedom from major adverse cardiac events (MACE: death, myocardial infarction \[MI\], target lesion revascularization \[TLR\]) and target vessel revascularization \[TVR\]) and stent thrombosis, both early and late occurrences will be assessed. In addition, a cohort of the registry will undergo angiographic follow up at 6-9 months to assess in-stent and in-segment late loss and binary restenosis subsequent to paclitaxel eluting balloon treatment for in-stent restenosis. A prioi analysis will be comparison of the safety and efficacy of patients presenting with drug-eluting stent in-stent restenosis to bare metal stent in-stent restenosis.
