Brief Summary

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

The study will assess the safety and performance of the Fantom sirolimus eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) in the acute setting of myocardial infarction with unstable lesions and thrombogenic milieu.This is a prospective evaluation of clinical and patient related measures in STEMI patient who undergo urgent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation. Patients with culprit lesions with 2.5 - 3.5 mm diameter and located in one of the main coronary arteries will be included in the trial and prospectively observed. The study will comprise 20 patients, who will undergo additional evaluation with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and near-infrared spectroscopy/intravascular ultrasound (NIRS/IVUS) at baseline, 6 months, 18-24 months and 36 months. The device will be delivered in sizes 2.5 and 3.0 in diameter / 18 and 24 mm and 3.5 mm x 18 mm in length.

Study procedure

Screening procedure

All patient who are admitted to the study site will be evaluated based on this protocol with intention for study inclusion (patient screening). All patients with STEMI will be considered as potentially eligible candidates. Before being approach with patient informed consent (PIC), the member of study team will explain all the risks and benefits associated with the procedure and allow enough time to the patient for asking any questions that might represent his/her concerns. The patient must sign the consent prior to enrollment; failure to do so is a subject for ineligibility. After PIC is acquired, the patient will receive a unique screening number consisting of three digits (i.e. 001).

The initial evaluation comprises of the following elements:

* History of symptoms directly leading to the diagnosis
* Cardiac physical examination
* 12-lead ECG
* Coronary angiogram.

Thereafter, all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be rechecked. If not all inclusion criteria are met, or there are at least one-exclusion criteria present the patient will be considered as screening failure.

Patient allocation

All patient who meet all eligibility criteria after pre-dilatation will be allocated in the study and have a Fantom BVS implanted.

Medications

Pre-treatment

The pretreatment with aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitor and heparin is allowed as per local practice. In case the patient did not receive all of the above-mentioned drugs, those will be administered in latest just after coronary angiogram. The desired doses are: aspirin of 300 mg p.o., P2Y12 inhibitor according to the agent (600 mg of clopidogrel or 60 mg of prasugrel or 180 mg of ticagrelor), and unfractionated heparin of 70-100 units per kg (or 50-60 units per kg, if IIb/IIIa inhibitor if co-administered).

Peri-procedural

If no anticoagulant was administered in the pre-hospital setting an intravenous agent should be given in the cathlab (preferably UFH). If UFH is used, the anticoagulation should be monitored according to the activated clotting time \> 250 second (200-250 seconds if GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor is being administered). The GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors may be administered at operator discretion. Before final angiographic projections, the nitroglycerin should be administered i.c.

Post-procedural

After the procedure patients should be treated according to the European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the management of acute myocardial infarction in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) must me maintained for consecutive 12-months after revascularization comprising of low dose aspirin (75-100 mg daily) and a maintenance dose of P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel 75 mg daily, prasugrel 10 mg daily, ticagrelor 90 mg bid). In patients with an indication to long-term anticoagulation the length of DAPT should be adjusted according to individual risk factors.

All patients should receive optimal medical therapy consisting of high dose statins, additionally in those with low ejection fraction beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and aldosterone antagonists should be considered if not contraindicated.

Intervention

Patient diagnosed with ST elevation myocardial infarction will undergo bioresorbable stent deployment in culprit lesion.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PCI with Phantom Bioresorbable Scaffold

Intervention Type DEVICE

Once baseline angiography is performed and all eligibility criteria are met, the patient is included in the study. The target lesion should be crossed with a standard coronary guidewire. Next, the NIRS/IVUS and OCT probe is inserted and a pullback is being performed to evaluate the lesion and vessel morphology. The predilatation with 1:1 non-compliant or semi-compliant balloon is mandatory. Thereafter the scaffold should be inserted and position across the target lesion. Lesions up to 14 mm should be covered with the 18 mm device, for lesions of 15-20 mm a 24 mm device should be used. The scaffold will be deployed with intent to achieve the inner diameter to the reference vessel ration of 1:1 using a single inflation. Post-dilatation using a non-compliant balloon should be performed to achieve complete scaffold apposition and reduce the residual angiographic stenosis below 20%. The final NIRS/IVUS and OCT of the target vessel should be performed.
