Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) will be performed early after stent implantation to evaluate vascular healing response and neointimal coverage.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Animal model has demonstrated that a functional endothelial layer could be formed as soon as 24 to 48 hours after GENOUS stent implantation (1). The HEALING-FIM registry has shown that GENOUS stent is clinically safe and effective in the treatment of coronary stenosis (2). Recent reports have further confirmed its efficacy in patients with acute coronary syndrome requiring urgent revascularization (3,4).
Intracoronary frequency domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) is a simple catheter-based imaging technique using optic fibre to achieve very detailed assessment (resolution down to 10 microns) of the stents, in terms of stent apposition, early neointimal coverage (enhanced endothelialization) and late stent neointimal growth (restenosis). It is performed as part of the routine cardiac catheterization procedure and provides high-resolution cross sectional images of the coronary arteries. OCT has been shown to be safe in clinical practice (5). The LightLab C7XR OCT System (Frequency Domain OCT) is a commercially available product with CE Mark and FDA approval, and is being used in our EGO Study. The Dragonfly OCT catheter used is a non-occlusive optic fibre which is extremely small and flexible, and will pose absolutely no additional risk to the patient under treatment, other than those inherent risks of a standard angioplasty procedure.
Despite data in animal model showed a fast and complete endothelization, there is no study to verify and investigate on such healing benefits in human patients. Therefore, if endothelization and early neointimal healing benefits of the GENOUS stent can be evaluated by a reliable imaging technique, further studies can be carried out to extend the benefits of the EPC capturing capacity.
