ISAR-LEFT MAIN 2 DESIGN: Randomized, multi-center trial OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relative performance of two 2nd generations DES – zotarolimus- and everolimus-eluting stents – in patients with uLMCA lesions STEERING COMMITTEE Adnan Kastrati, MD (Chair) Julinda Mehilli, MD (principal investigator) Josef Dirschinger, MD PARTICIPATING CENTERS Deutsches Herzzentrum & Klinikum rechts der Isar, Munich, Germany PI: J.

Inclusion Criteria Patients with ischemic symptoms or evidence of myocardial ischemia in the presence of ≥50 % stenosis located in unprotected LMCA who are unable to undergo CABG because of cardiac surgeons’ refusal (poor surgical candidates) or their own unwillingness
Exclusion Criteria Age < 18 years Cardiogenic shock ST-Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction In-stent Restenosis Prior coronary artery bypass surgery Malignancies with life expectancy <1 year Planned staged PCI within 30 days from index PCI Planned elective surgical procedure necessitating interruption of clopidogrel during the first six months after PCI Pregnancy
Primary Endpoint Incidence of major adverse cardiac events defined as the composite of death myocardial infarction target lesion revascularization at 1-year follow-up
Secondary Endpoints left main area analysis Angiographic restenosis at 8-month FU angiogram, defined as diameter stenosis ≥50% measured by QCA in the area from left main ostium to 5-mm proximal segments of LAD, LCx as well as of R. intermedius if the latter has a reference diameter >2 mm ARC-defined stent thrombosis at 1-year follow-up
Sample Size Calculation Hypothesis: Endeavor Resolute stent is not inferior to Xience stent in terms of major adverse cardiac events Assumptions: Incidence of MACE 25% in both stent groups Margin of non-inferiority 9% Power of 80% -level of 0.05 Rate of lost to follow-up 5% Planed number of patients for each group: 300

Summary The use of 2nd gen. DES in unprotected LMCA lesions in relatively unselected patients is safe and effective. Both Endeavor Resolute and Xience stents provide similar clinical and angiographic outcomes at one-year follow-up in this high risk patient population.
