Brief Summary

The primary objectives of this trial are: 1) to evaluate the safety of NONA-L-ARGININE in ex vivo application to saphenous vein segments prior to grafting; and, 2) to obtain preliminary data on the bi...

Detailed Description

LT-1951 is an aqueous solution of NONA-L-ARGININE. The drug efficiently penetrates into vascular tissues like the saphenous vein and supplies the tissue with a sustained reservoir of L-arginine, the s...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Subject must be 35-85 years of age and able to give informed consent.
  • Coronary artery disease requiring bypass grafting using at least two saphenous vein bypass grafts carried out through median sternotomy and utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass.
  • Use of an approved statin anticipated for at least 24 months after surgery.
  • Subject must not be a candidate for concurrent ventricular surgical restoration, AICD placement, or valvular surgery.
  • Agreeable to CTA at 6 weeks and IVUS intervention at 12-months post-CABG. Subjects agreeable to additional CTA at 6, 12 and 24 months preferred.

Exclusion

  • Acute traumatic injury or vasculitis.
  • Insulin-dependent diabetes.
  • Procedure is for revision for an existing bypass graft.
  • Procedure is to be minimally invasive (except for harvesting of the graft segment).
  • Concurrent cardiac valvular surgery.
  • Patients with any medical condition that, in the investigator's judgment, makes the patient ineligible or places the patient at undue risk (e.g. conditions that preclude standard invasive follow-up procedures such as IVUS and angiography, i.e. renal failure, bleeding diathesis, or peripheral vascular disease preventing catheterization via the groin).
  • Subject has clinical evidence of infection that the Investigator deems significant to the completion of the procedure, or that could compromise the subject's safety.
  • Subject has recent history (within past 6 months) of alcohol or drug abuse.
  • If female, subject is pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
  • Calculated creatinine clearance \< 30 mls/min for non-diabetics or \< 50 mls/min for non-insulin dependent diabetics.
