Brief summary
To compare the 3 - year clinical follow - up results of patients with left main bifurcation lesions treated by intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) - guided and coronary angiography(CAG) - guided percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI), and to confirm the clinical benefits of optimizing interventional therapy of left main bifurcation lesions by intravascular ultrasound(IVUS).
Detailed description
616 patients with primary left main coronary artery bifurcation lesions will be recruited in this study. The target lesions of patients need to be true coronary artery bifurcation lesions (Medina 1,1,1 or 0,1,1). After angiography, patients will be randomly assigned to intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) - guided and coronary angiography (CAG)- guided groups. The random number of patients will be generated by the central computer random system, and the random will be stratified according to the study sites. In coronary angiography(CAG)-guided group, two-stent technique will be used(the exact two-stent technique used was left to the operator's discretion). In intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)-guided group, minimal lumen area(MLA) in ostium of side branch will be measured by intravascular ultrasound(IVUS). If minimal lumen area(MLA)\<4mm2, two-stent technique will be used(the exact two-stent technique used was left to the operator's discretion) and intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) will be repeated at the end of the procedure. If minimal lumen area(MLA) \>=4mm2, one-stent technique will be used and intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) will be repeated. If minimal lumen area(MLA) in ostium of side branch is still \>=4mm2, the procedure will be ended. If minimal lumen area(MLA) in ostium of side branch become \<4mm2, the following interventional strategy will be left to the operator's discretion( balloon inflation, drug-eluting balloon, or switch to two-stent technique). Again, intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) will be repeated at the end of the procedure.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Target vessel failure rate(the rate of outcomes including cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction(MI), and clinically driven main branch or side branch target vessel revascularization(TVR) in each group) | 12th month after stent implantation | Cardiac death is defined as death resulting from an acute myocardial infarction (MI), sudden cardiac death, stroke, death due to heart failure (HF), death due to cardiovascular (CV) procedures, death due to CV hemorrhage, and death due to other CV causes; target vessel MI is defined as a MI case with the evidence of myocardial necrosis in the vascular territory of previously treated vessel; clinically driven main branch or side branch TVR is defined as a revascularization procedure with repeated stenting, balloon angioplasty or surgical bypass grafting for restenosed or occluded culprit target vessel. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events（MACCE）rate（ the percentage of outcomes including all cause death, stroke, myocardial infarction(MI), and all clinically driven target vessel revascularization(TVR) in each group) | 30 days, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months and 36 months after operation | TVR is defined as a revascularization procedure with repeated stenting, balloon angioplasty or surgical bypass grafting for restenosed or occluded culprit target vessel. |
| The percentage of in-stent restenosis (ISR) assessed by quantitative coronary angiography(QCA) in each group | 12 months after operation | ISR is defined as a \>50% stenosis of a previously stented segment as judged by QCA after coronary angiography |
