Brief summary
Randomized nine months clinical comparison of implantation of Taxol eluting (Taxus Express) and Sirolimus eluting (Cypher Select) stents in non-selected patients with coronary artery disease.
Detailed description
Design: * Randomized open multicentre trial. Patients: * 1800 patients with coronary artery disease scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation. Inclusion criteria: * Patients with coronary artery disease scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation. * Signed informed consent. Exclusion criteria: * Participation in other stent studies. Randomization: * Implantation of Taxus Express og Cypher Select stents. Primary end-point: * Combined end-point of cardiac death, new revascularization (PCI or CABG) or myocardial infarction after nine months. Secondary end-points: * Total death after nine months * Cardiac death after nine months * Myocardial infarction after nine months * Index vessel myocardial infarction after nine months * Target lesion revascularization * Target vessel revascularization * Stent thrombosis after nine months End-point evaluation: * End-points will be adjudicated by an independent end-point committee
