Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to study the safety and efficacy of the BiOSS LIM C with respect to Patient oriented Composite Endpoint (PoCE) at 12 months in a real world left-main bifurcation population and as compared with a prespecified performance goal.
Interventions
The BiOSS LIM C (Bifurcation Optimization Stent System, Balton, Warsaw, Poland). The BiOSS LIM C is a dedicated bifurcation stent covered with a mixture of a biodegradable polymer and the antiproliferative substance sirolimus. BiOSS LIM C will be used for treatment of the Left-Main bifurcation, according to its instructions for use. The Alex-Plus cobaltchromium sirolimus eluting stent (Balton, Warsaw, Poland) will be used for treatment of distal left-main side branches according to its instructions for use (i.e. proximal segments of the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries as well as the ramus intermedius if the latter vessel is part of a trifurcation). All other lesions (other than left-main bifurcations) will be treated with XIENCE family everolimus-eluting coronary stent systems.

| Non-inferiority Comparison of Patient-oriented Composite Endpoint (PoCE) of BiOSS LIM C to a Pre-specified Objective Performance Goal (OPC). | 12 months | POCE defined as a composite measure of: All-cause mortality, Stroke (Modified Ranking Scale (mRS) ≥1), Any Myocardial infarction (MI) (includes non target vessel territory), Any unplanned revascularization for ischemia (includes all target and nontarget vessels). OPC based on data collected in Excel-study. The safety and efficacy of the BiOSS LIM C® stent with respect to a PoCE at 12 months in a real world LM bifurcation population compared with a pre-specified performance goal was not confirmed. The POLBOS LM study showed that the BiOSS LIM C® stent was not non-inferior to the XIENCE stent for percutaneous treatment of the LM disease. |
