Summary

The present study has two components, an overall prospective observational study using multimodality imaging (PROSPECT II) that will examine the natural history of patients with unstable atherosclerotic coronary artery disease with the specific goal to establish the utility of low-risk intracoronary imaging modalities, IVUS and NIRS, to identify plaques prone to future rupture and clinical events. The randomized PROSPECT ABSORB substudy will examine whether treatment of vulnerable plaques with the Absorb Bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) plus GDMT safely increases the minimum lumen area (MLA) at 24 months compared with GDMT alone. The cutoff for inclusion in PROSPECT ABSORB will be a site-determined PB ≥65% (rather than the 70% cutoff identified in the original PROSPECT analysis (Stone et al., New England Journal of Medicine, 2011(5)) to account for an observed tendency for sites to underestimate plaque burden during acute treatment of ACS patients. Nonetheless, in PROSPECT, a core laboratory determined PB ≥65% was also associated with a high (7.0%) rate of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) during 3-year follow-up, a rate which may be reduced with a bioresorbable scaffold.

Eligibility Criteria

PROSPECT II

Inclusion Criteria

  • Troponin positive ACS (STEMI >12 h or NSTEMI) occurring within the prior 4 weeks of enrollment, with symptoms consistent with acute ischemia lasting >10 minutes, intended for angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) if appropriate.
  • Patient must have one-vessel, two-vessel or three-vessel disease in native coronary arteries requiring PCI.
  • Successful PCI

Exclusion Criteria

  • Known estimated creatinine clearance 30%.
  • Angiographic evidence of severe calcification and/or marked tortuosity of the target (culprit) or a non-culprit vessel is present that would preclude the feasibility of safe imaging of at least the proximal 6 cm of all vessels.
  • The presence of a chronic total occlusion of a major epicardial coronary vessel that is not successfully recanalized during the PCI procedure, and thus would preclude intravascular imaging.

PROSPECT ABSORB

Inclusion Criteria

if one or more eligible lesions are identified which meet all of the following angiographic criteria:

  • The lesion is a de novo lesion (may be located in either the target or non-target vessel)
  • The lesion has an angiographic diameter stenosis 50%
  • A bifurcation lesion may be enrolled only if the side branch is a) ≤2.5 mm in reference vessel diameter, AND b) has either no lesion requiring treatment, or atherosclerotic disease limited to within 5 mm of its origin from the parent vessel such that the operator believes that the side branch can be successfully treated with balloon angioplasty only (without a stent). If a stent subsequently becomes necessary, only a metallic drug-eluting stent (DES) may be used to treat the side branch with a T-stent technique.
  • Randomization must occur immediately after the 3-vessel imaging run in the PROSPECT II protocol. If the patient randomizes to BVS, BVS placement must be performed immediately after randomization.

Exclusion Criteria

  • The randomized lesion cannot be within 10 mm of a lesion previously treated by PCI .
  • The randomized lesion may not be in the left main coronary artery.
  • The randomized lesion may not be an ostial Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery (LAD) or ostial Left Circumflex Coronary Artery (LCX) lesion (defined as within 3 mm of the left main coronary artery).
  • The randomized lesion may not be an ostial Right Coronary Artery (RCA) lesion (defined as within 3 mm of the aorto-ostium).
  • Angiographic evidence of severe calcification and/or marked tortuosity of the target vessel and/or lesion intended for randomization is present that would make it unlikely that the BVS could be advanced to or across the lesion or be adequately expanded.
