To test whether the polymer-free drug-coated stent (DCS) BioFreedom is noninferior to the biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stent (DES) Ultimaster in terms of 1-year patient-oriented composite endpoint (POCE, composite of all-cause mortality, any MI, or any revascularization) in a setting of 1-month dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategy (1-month DAPT followed ticagrelor monotherapy) after acute coronary syndrome.
This trial is an open-label, randomized, multi-center study. Patients with ACS requiring percutaneous coronary intervention will be randomized with a 1:1 ratio either of DCS group or DES group. After the index procedure, DAPT (100 mg aspirin qd and 90 mg ticagrelor bid) will be given for 1 month. After this, ticagrelor monotherapy will be maintained for 11 months. Clinical events will be evaluated within 12 months after randomization.
