Brief summary
To place two different everolimus-eluting stents (EES), a bioabsorbable polymer EES (Synergy®) and a permanent-type polymer EES (Xience®), randomly to the ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to observe and compare the early and chronic vascular responses using the frequency domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT). The primary endpoint is the 2-week strut coverage rate by FD-OCT.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 2-weeks strut coverage rate by FD-OCT | 2-weeks | In this clinical study, the 2-week covered strut rate by FD-OCT should be considered the primary endpoint, and the non-inferiority of Synergy® to the present standard treatment, Xience®, established in the control group in the treatment of STEMI, should be demonstrated. |
