Summary

Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who have both high ischemic risk and high bleeding risk represent a challenging population following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), as prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) may reduce ischemic events but increases bleeding complications.This prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of an optimized PCI and antiplatelet therapy strategy in ACS patients with moderate-to-high ischemic risk and high bleeding risk. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either an experimental strategy consisting of intravascular ultrasound-guided implantation of a polymer-free drug-coated stent followed by one month of DAPT and subsequent single antiplatelet therapy, or a control strategy consisting of angiography-guided implantation of contemporary drug-eluting stents followed by standard 12-month DAPT.The primary hypothesis is that the experimental strategy will reduce the incidence of net adverse clinical events, defined as a composite of ischemic and bleeding outcomes, compared with conventional PCI and prolonged DAPT. Participants will be followed for 12 months after the index procedure.

Conditions

  • Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)
  • High Bleeding Risk(HBR)
  • Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

Interventions

DEVICE

IVUS-guided BioFreedomTM Drug-Coated Stent Implantation + 1-Month DAPT Followed by 11-Month P2Y12 Inhibitor Monotherapy

Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided implantation of BioFreedom™ polymer-free drug-coated stent, followed by 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT: aspirin + P2Y12 inhibitor) and 11-month P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy for ACS patients with high bleeding and intermediate-to-high ischemic risk.

DEVICE

Angiography-guided Conventional Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation + 12-Month Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (Aspirin + P2Y12 Inhibitor)

Coronary angiography-guided implantation of conventional drug-eluting stent (DES), with 12-month standard DAPT (aspirin + P2Y12 inhibitor) for the same patient population.
