Comparing two types of stents for heart patients on short-term medication

Drug-Coated Stent Versus Drug-Eluting Stent for One-month Dual-antiplatelet Therapy in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome: ONE-PASS Trial

Not applicable Interventional Yonsei University · NCT05305482

This study is testing whether a new type of heart stent without a polymer works better than a biodegradable one for patients with acute coronary syndrome who are on short-term medication.

What this trial studies

This trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a polymer-free drug-coated stent (DCS) compared to a biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stent (DES) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who will undergo percutaneous coronary intervention. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the DCS or DES, followed by one month of dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with ticagrelor and aspirin, after which they will continue with ticagrelor monotherapy for 11 months. The primary outcome will be assessed through a composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, or revascularization within one year. This open-label, multi-center study will provide insights into the safety and efficacy of these stent types in a real-world clinical setting.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 19 and older who are suitable for treatment with either type of stent due to acute coronary syndrome.

Not a fit: Patients who are pregnant, require oral anticoagulation therapy, or cannot be followed for one year post-enrollment may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved treatment strategies for patients with acute coronary syndrome, potentially reducing complications and enhancing recovery.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have shown promising results with drug-coated and drug-eluting stents, but this specific comparison in the context of one-month DAPT is relatively novel.
