IVUS Versus FFR for Non-infarct Related Artery Lesions in Patients With Multivessel Disease and Acute MI

Randomized Controlled Trial of Intravascular Ultrasound Versus Fractional Flow Reserve for Non-infarct Related Artery Lesions in Patients With Multivessel Disease and Acute Myocardial Infarction

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

The aim of the study is to compare clinical outcomes between intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided treatment decision versus fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided treatment decision for non-infarct related artery stenosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and multivessel disease.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Subject must be at least 19 years of age - Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) \*STEMI: ST-segment elevation ≥0.1 mV in ≥2 contiguous leads or documented newly developed left bundle-branch block - Acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) \*NSTEMI: NSTEMI is defined as a combination of criteria with mandated elevation of a cardiac biomarker, preferably high-sensitive cardiac troponin with at least one value above 99th percentile of the upper reference limit and at least one of the following: 1. Symptoms of ischemia. 2. New or presumed new significant ST-T wave changes 3. Development of pathological Q waves on electrocardiography. 4. Imaging evidence of new or presumed new loss of viable myocardium or regional wall motion abnormality. 5. Intracoronary thrombus detected on angiography. - Successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in \< 12 h after the onset of symptoms for STEMI patients (In case of NSTEMI, PCI should be performed within 72 hours of symptom onset) - Multivessel disease (at least one stenosis of \>50% in a non-IRA ≥2.25 mm by visual estimation) - Subject is able to verbally confirm understandings of risks, benefits and treatment alternatives of receiving invasive physiologic evaluation and PCI and he/she or his/her legally authorized representative provides written willing to sign a consent form prior to any study related procedure. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Non-IRA stenosis not amenable for PCI treatment by operators' decision - Cardiogenic shock (Killip class IV) already at presentation or the completion of IRA PCI - Intolerance to Aspirin, Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, Ticagrelor, Heparin, or Everolimus - Known true anaphylaxis to contrast medium (not allergic reaction but anaphylactic shock) - Pregnancy or breast feeding ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Treatments Being Tested

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

IVUS-guided PCI group

In IVUS-guided PCI group, the current trial evaluates clinical outcome following IVUS-guided treatment decision for revascularization of non-IRA stenosis.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

FFR-guided PCI group

In FFR-guided PCI group, FFR measurement for non-IRA stenosis (\>50% visual estimation) will be performed by continuous infusion of adenosine (140\~180 ug/kg/min) or intracoronary nicorandil (2 mg bolus) injection. The FFR ≤0.80 will be targeted for PCI. In case of non-IRA stenosis \>90%, we will judge FFR value of ≤0.80.
