Official title: Intravascular Ultrasound Guidance for Complex High-risk Indicated Procedures in Underrepresented Patient Populations Registry
Run by ECRI bv · NCT06625801 · Data updated 2026-11-12

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) who self-identify as a US census-defined minority and require PCI for complex lesions suitable for current stents or balloons.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without complex lesions or who do not identify as a minority may not experience additional benefit from this approach.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter, prospective registry enrolling up to 1010 adults over two years to observe outcomes after IVUS-guided PCI for complex coronary lesions. It focuses on safety and clinical outcomes in a US minority population. All participants receive IVUS-guided PCI using FDA-approved drug-eluting stents or drug-coated balloons, with follow-up through 2 years. The study is observational and single-arm, without randomization. Enrollment spans multiple centers including Banner Health, Loma Linda University Health, and Baptist Health, with support from ECRI bv and industry collaborators.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could clarify real-world safety and outcomes of IVUS-guided PCI in minority patients with complex lesions.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies using IVUS guidance have shown favorable outcomes in complex lesions, but data in minority populations remain limited, making this a relatively novel setting.

True bifurcation lesions involving side-branches \>2.5mm 4. Left main lesions 5. Chronic total occlusion 6. In-stent restenosis 7. Long-lesions (estimated stent length \> 28mm) OR Patient with an indication for PCI for any lesion and in need for elective mechanical circulatory support assisted PCI 3. Presenting with silent ischemia, stable angina, unstable angina or non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) 4. All lesions must be suitable for treatment with FDA-approved contemporary generation drug eluting stents or drug-coated balloons 5. The patient is willing and able to cooperate with registry procedures and follow-up until registry completion 6. Subject is able to confirm understanding of risks, benefits and treatment alternatives and he/she (or an authorized legal representative) provides informed consent prior to any protocol-related procedure, as approved by the appropriate IRB Exclusion Criteria: 1. ST-elevation myocardial infarction or cardiogenic shock within prior 7 days 2. Known untreated severe valvular heart disease 3. Contraindication on the use of IVUS (i.e. extreme vessel tortuosity) 4. Requiring PCI in a diseased aorto-coronary bypass 5. Known contraindication or hypersensitivity to anticoagulants 6. Absolute contraindications or allergy that cannot be pre-medicated, to iodinated contrast or to antiplatelet drugs, including both aspirin and P2Y12 inhibitors 7. Non-cardiac co-morbidities with a life expectancy less than 1 year 8. A patients that is currently participating in a clinical trial that has not yet reached its primary endpoint cannot be included in this registry. A patient may only be enrolled in this registry once.
