E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |

E.1.2 | Level | LLT |

E.1.2 | Term | Acute coronary syndrome |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
compare the efficacy and, secondarily, the safety and effectiveness of pre-procedural use of the Gp IIb/IIIa inhibitor eptifibatide in comparison to placebo in patients with diffuse CAD undergoing multiple DES implantation. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The primary end point will be the rate of post-procedural peak CK-MB ratio values above the upper limit of normal. Secondary end-points will include the composite of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction MI , urgent target vessel revascularization TVR , and thrombotic bailout GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor therapy within 180 days, and in-hospital, 1-month, 6-months major adverse cardiovascular events MACE , defined as the composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI, or urgent TVR. As additional safety and efficacy tertiary end-points we will assess the rate of major and minor bleedings defined according to the Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction criteria . Angiographic end-points will include the procedural changes in Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction TIMI flow, corrected TIMI frame count, and myocardial blush grade. |

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Male or female able to understand and sign a witnessed informed consent Age 8805; 18 yo Patients with stable CCS 1-4 or unstable angina pectoris but with the most recent anginal episode occurring 48 hours before the procedure or documented silent ischemia Stable Hemodynamic conditions systolic BP 100 HR 40 100 . No clinical and ECG changes suggestive of ongoing acute or recent 48 hours myocardial infarction. Angiographic evidence of a de novo lesion 50 requiring implantation of two DES in overlapping with a total stent length 33 mm and reference vessel diameter between 2.5 and 4.0 mm by visual estimation in one coronary vessel. Multiple lesions in the same vessels can be included but at least one lesion should require implantation of two DES in overlapping with a total stent length 33 mm . The definition of multivessel disease requires an intention to treat at least two lesions with a least one with the characteristics reported above in two different major epicardial segments. For example, the presence of a lesion in the left anterior descending artery and in the obtuse marginal or the presence of a lesions in the right postero-lateral branch and in a diagonal branch will qualify as multivessel. The presence of lesions in the left anterior descending artery and in the diagonal branch will not qualify as multivessel. Bifurcation lesions and ostial lesions can be included, but only if at least two DES in overlapping with a total stent length 33 mm are implanted in the same branch. When treating diffuse lesion in the same vessel, overlapping stenting is recommended with high pressure 14 atm post-dilation of the overlap zone. There is no maximum stent length to treat one coronary vessel. |
