Inclusion criteria
. Subject must be at least 18 years of age.
. Subject must sign and date a written informed consent form before any study-specific tests or procedures are performed.
. Subject is able and willing to comply with all protocol requirements.
. Subject has native coronary artery disease (including stable or unstable angina and silent ischemia) suitable for PCI.
. For subject with unstable ischemic heart disease, cardiac biomarker (troponin) must be less than or equal to the upper reference limit (URL) within 12 hours prior to the procedure.
. For subject with stable ischemic heart disease, cardiac biomarker (troponin) must be less than or equal to 1.5 times the URL. Blood for cardiac biomarkers may be drawn prior to the procedure or at the time of the procedure from the side port of the sheath.
. The target lesion must be a single de novo coronary lesion that has not been previously treated with ANY interventional procedure.
. Single de novo target lesion stenosis of protected left main coronary artery (LMCA), or left anterior descending artery (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA), left circumflex artery (LCX), or ramus intermedius (RI), or of their branches with: a. Stenosis of ≥70% and \<100% or b. Stenosis ≥50% and \<70% with evidence of ischemia via positive stress test, or fractional flow reserve (FFR) value ≤0.80, or RFR/iFR \<0.89 (or any other non-hyperemic pressure index), or IVUS or OCT minimum lumen area ≤4.0 mm\^2
Exclusion criteria
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Procedural success with final mean residual stenosis <50% and without in-hospital TLF.
Timeframe: Within 48 hour post index procedure or prior to discharge, whichever is earlier.
2
Primary Safety Endpoint: TLF at 30-days post index procedure
. Subject has other anatomic or comorbid conditions, or other medical, social, or psychological conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the subject's ability to participate in the clinical investigation or to comply with follow-up requirements of the clinical investigation results.
. Subject is a member of a vulnerable population including individuals with mental disability, persons in nursing homes, children, impoverished persons, persons in emergency situations, homeless persons, nomads, refugees, and those incapable of giving informed consent.
. Subject is participating in another research study involving an investigational agent (pharmaceutical, biologic, or medical device) that has not reached the Primary endpoint. For the purposes of this criterion, "participation" is defined as being registered in another trial.
. Pregnant or nursing subjects and those who plan pregnancy during the clinical investigation follow-up period. For subjects with childbearing potential, a urine or blood pregnancy test is required within 7 days prior to index procedure to verify that subject is not pregnant. Note: Investigators should instruct female patients of childbearing potential to use safe contraception for 12 months after the procedure (e.g., intrauterine devices, hormonal contraceptives: contraceptive pills, implants, transdermal patches, hormonal vaginal devices, injections with prolonged release). It is acceptable to include subjects having a sterilized regular partner.
. Subject unable to tolerate dual antiplatelet therapy (i.e., aspirin, and either clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor) for at least 6 months.
. Subject has an allergy to imaging contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
. Subject experienced an acute MI (either ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, STEMI or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, NSTEMI) within 7 days prior to index procedure, defined as a clinical syndrome consistent with an acute coronary syndrome with troponin or CK- MB greater than 1 times the local laboratory's ULN.
. Subject has New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV heart failure.
