Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab for in-stent neoatherosclerosis by using optical coherence tomography, in comparison with standard statin therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators investigate to evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab for in-stent neoatherosclerosis. The investigators enrolled the patient who performed drug eluting stent implantation and detected in-stent neoatherosclerosis by follow up optical coherence tomography, and categorized into two group; the patients with alirocumab and rosuvastatin the investigatorsre categorized alirocumab therapy group, and the patients with rosuvastatin alone were categorized standard statin therapy group.

The investigators compare these two group for outcomes.
