E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Subjects either male or female eligible for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with lesions suitable for stent implantation who meet all eligibility criteria and provide written informed consent will be included. Of note, inclusion criteria will be kept comprehensive to reflect routine clinical practice (i.e. “real world, all-comers” patients). |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Patients with different levels of chest pain, due to poor blood flow to the heart. To improve the blood flow and symptoms, the artery is reopened followed by applicable treatment by medicines. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To determine in all-comers patients undergoing PCI under standardised treatment (including the BioMatrix family of drug-eluting stents and bivalirudin), whether treatment with 1 month of ticagrelor and aspirin followed by 23 months of ticagrelor monotherapy is superior with respect to the composite of all-cause mortality or non-fatal new Q-wave MI compared to treatment with 12 months of standard dual anti platelet therapy (DAPT) followed by aspirin monotherapy. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
“Real world, all comer” patients 1. Age ≥18 years; 2. Presence of one or more coronary artery stenoses of 50% or more in a native coronary artery or in a saphenous venous or arterial bypass conduit suitable for coronary stent implantation in a vessel with a reference vessel diameter of at least 2.25 mm (no limitation on the number of treated lesions, and vessels, and lesion length). 3. Able to provide informed consent and willing to participate in 2 year follow-up period.
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Known intolerance to aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitors, bivalirudin, stainless steel or biolimus; 2. Known intake of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin, nefazodone, ritonavir, and atazanavir), as co-administration may lead to a substantial increase in exposure to ticagrelor; 3. Known moderate to severe hepatic impairment (alanine-aminotransferase ≥ 3 x ULN); 4. Planned surgery, including CABG as a staged procedure (hybrid) within 12 months of the index procedure, unless dual antiplatelet therapy is maintained throughout the peri-surgical period; 5. Need for chronic oral anti-coagulation therapy; 6. Active major bleeding or major surgery within the last 30 days; 7. Known history of intracranial haemorrhagic stroke or intra-cranial aneurysm; 8. Known stroke (any type) within the last 30 days; 9. Known pregnancy at time of randomisation; 10. Currently participating in another trial and not yet at its primary endpoint. |
