Brief summary

This is an investigator initiated randomized trial, performed under the auspices of the Spanish Society of Cardiology. It is a multicenter, international, parallel, randomized 1:1 (amphilimus-eluting stents vs zotarolimus-eluting stents) clinical trial performed exclusively in patients with diabetes mellitus. The study has an all-comers diabetics design. The primary-endpoint is target lesion failure at 1-year follow-up (non-inferiority design) and the co-primary end-point is target lesion failure at 2-years follow-up (superiority-design).

Inclusion criteria

(must meet all): * Patients ≥18 years who understands the nature of the study and provides written informed consent. * Diagnosis of diabetes according to the American Diabetes Association diagnostic criteria (\*) * Documented silent ischemia, stable angina, unstable angina, or myocardial infarction (with or without ST elevation). * At least one de novo coronary lesion with stenosis of more than 50% in a vessel with a reference vessel diameter of 2.25 to 4.5 mm by visual estimation. Coronary anatomy is suitable for PCI (patients with potential CABG indication should be eligible for PCI after a multidisciplinary evaluation in a Heart Team).

Exclusion criteria

* Cardiogenic shock or resuscitation * Comorbidity with anticipated life expectancy to 24 months * Inability to consent due to mechanical ventilation * Pregnant female patient * Conditions that could preclude a minimal of 1 month of DAPT (such as, but not limited to: severe liver failure, platelet count \<100,000 cells/mm3, recent gastrointestinal bleeding or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy) * Contraindication or known allergy to aspirin, heparin, P2Y12 inhibitors, cobalt and/or chromium metal alloys, sirolimus or derivates, polyurethane, or contrast media (for contrast-media allergy, patients that might be safely and adequately pre-medicated should be allowed to enter the study). * Currently enrolled in another clinical trial.
