Brief summary
Treatment of patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a challenge. This study will assess the efficacy of Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffolds (BVS) (Abbott Vascular) in the treatment of patients suffering from ISR after scoring balloon pre-dilatation.
Detailed description
Treatment of patients with ISR remains a challenge. Currently both drug-eluting stents (DES) and drug-coated balloons (DCB) are considered as the strategies of choice in this setting. However, data on the value of BVS in patients with ISR is scarce. BVS are very effective to inhibit neointimal proliferation and they avoid the need of implanting a new permanent metal layer. Accordingly, currently, there is a major interest to elucidate the potential value of BVS in patients with ISR. The use of scoring balloon pre-dilatation has not been studied previously in this setting. This prospective Spanish multicenter study will assess the clinical and angiographic outcome of patients with ISR treated with BVS with scoring balloon pre-dilatation. BVS will be implanted in selected patients (fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria) presenting with either BMS-ISR or DES-ISR. Care will be paid to ensure device optimization. Scoring balloon pre-dilatation is mandatory. Angiographic follow-up will be obtained at 6-9 months. A centralized angiographic corelab will be used to provide QCA measurements. Clinical follow-up will be also obtained at 1 year and then yearly. Clinical events will be adjudicated by an independent Clinical Event Committee.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Minimal lumen diameter as assessed by quantitative coronary angiography at late angiographic follow-up | angiographic follow-up at 6-9 months | This is a single arm study and results will be analyzed this arm. However, the angiographic and clinical results will be also compared with those obtained in other arms of previous RIBS trials. In particular results will be compared with those found in the RIBS VI study. |
| Combined clinical end-point (cardiac death, myocardial infarction and target vessel revascularization) | 1 year of clinical follow-up | This is a well-accepted outcome measure of individual clinical end-points. Definition of myocardial infarction is similar to that used in previous RIBS studies. The occurrence of ANY of these events will qualify for the combined event. That is, Cardiac death OR Myocardial Infarctio OR target vessel revascularization. (for the cobined end point the first event will be censored for each patient and other subsequent events will not apply). For time related statistics, the first event will be censored in the KM curves. In addition to that, the time and occurrence of each individual event will be also analyzed. The same strategy will be followed for the other combined clinical outcome measures that, again, are classically defined in this field. |
Secondary

|---|---|---|

| Restenosis rate | 6-9 months | Late angiographic parameter |
| Late loss | 6-9 months | Change in minimal lumen diameter from the final procedure to the follow-up angiogram at 6-9 months. Late angiographic parameter. |
| Net gain | 6-9 months | Is the difference between acute gain and late loss. Late angiographic parameter |
| Loss index | 6-9 months | Late angiographic parameter |
| Combined clinical outcome measure (cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization) | 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years | This is a well-accepted outcome measure of individual clinical end-points. Definition of myocardial infarction is similar to that used in previous RIBS studies. The occurrence of ANY of these events will qualify for the combined event. That is, Cardiac death OR Myocardial Infarctio OR target vessel revascularization.
