IVUS-Guided Sirolimus-Coated Balloon Versus Sirolimus-Eluting Stent for De Novo Large Vessel Lesions in ACS

简要摘要

The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided sirolimus-coated balloon (SCB)-based strategy versus planned sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and de novo large-vessel coronary lesions. The main question is whether the SCB-based strategy is non-inferior to the SES strategy with respect to in-segment late lumen loss (LLL) at 9 months. Following adequate lesion preparation and confirmation according to the prespecified angiographic and IVUS criteria that the target lesion is suitable for both randomized treatment strategies, participants will be randomly assigned to undergo either SCB treatment without routine stent implantation or planned SES implantation. In the SCB group, bail-out SES implantation will be performed when clinically necessary, such as in cases of significant residual stenosis or flow-limiting dissection. Participants will undergo angiographic and IVUS follow-up at 9 months, and clinical outcomes will be assessed through 12 months.
