Summary

1. Objective Objective: \> The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a short-term (1-month) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) is non-inferior to the standard 6-month DAPT in patients undergoing Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) angioplasty for de novo small coronary artery disease.

Methods: \> This is an open-label, randomized, non-inferiority trial. Patients will be assigned to either 1 month or 6 months of DAPT after successful DCB treatment. The study will compare the incidence of Net Adverse Clinical Events (NACE)-a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, and major bleeding-between the two groups from 1 to 12 months post-procedure.
2. Background Following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is essential to prevent stent thrombosis and ischemic events. While short-duration DAPT (e.g., 4 weeks) has shown benefits in patients at high bleeding risk, evidence regarding the optimal DAPT duration specifically after Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) angioplasty for small vessel disease remains insufficient. This study aims to fill this clinical gap by comparing 1-month versus 6-month DAPT strategies.

Primary Objective To demonstrate the non-inferiority of 1-month DAPT (followed by SAPT up to 12 months) compared to 6-month DAPT in terms of Net Adverse Clinical Events (NACE) occurring between 1 and 12 months post-randomization.

Secondary Objectives To evaluate ischemic safety (CV death, MI, TLR). To assess bleeding safety (BARC type 2, 3, or 5). To analyze individual components of the primary composite endpoint, including all-cause death and stent thrombosis.
