Brief Summary

TAXUS ATLAS is a global, multi-center, single-arm, non-inferiority trial comparing results from patients treated with the TAXUS Liberté 38 mm stent to an historical TAXUS Express control. The control ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • General
  • Patient is at least 18 years old.
  • Eligible for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
  • Documented stable angina pectoris or unstable angina pectoris with documented ischemia, or documented silent ischemia
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 25%
  • Acceptable candidate for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)
  • Patient or legal guardian understands the study requirements and the treatment procedures and provides written Informed Consent before any study-specific tests or procedures are performed
  • Willing to comply with all specified follow-up evaluations
  • Angiographic
  • Only one lesion (target lesion) may be treated with the study stent.However, one additional lesion in a non-target vessel may be treated during the index procedure with a commercially available bare metal stent, heparin-coated stent or TAXUS Express stent.
  • Successful predilation is mandatory for entry into study
  • Target lesion located within a single native coronary artery
  • Target lesion enrolled for treatment may be composed of multiple lesions (not more than 10mm between diseased segments) but must be completely covered by one study stent.
  • Cumulative target lesion length is greater than or equal to 26 mm and less than or equal to 34 mm (visual estimate)
  • Target lesion RVD is greater than or equal to 2.7 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm (visual estimate)
  • Target lesion diameter stenosis at least 50% (visual estimate)
  • Target lesion is de novo (i.e., a coronary lesion not previously treated)
  • General

Exclusion

  • Known hypersensitivity to paclitaxel
  • Any previous, concurrent or planned treatment with a non-study anti-restenotic drug-coated or drug-eluting coronary stent.
  • Planned use of both the study stent and a non-study stent (i.e., commercial stent) in the treatment of the target vessel
  • Previous or planned treatment with intravascular brachytherapy in the target vessel
  • Planned CABG within 9-months post-index procedure
  • MI within 72 hours prior to the index procedure and/or creatine kinase(CK) \>2x the local laboratory's ULN unless CK-MB is \<2x ULN
  • Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) within the past 6 months
  • Cardiogenic Shock
  • Acute or chronic renal dysfunction
  • Contraindication to ASA, or to both clopidogrel and ticlopidine
  • Leukopenia
  • Thrombocytopenia or thrombocytosis
  • Active peptic ulcer or active gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding
  • Known allergy to stainless steel
  • Any prior true anaphylactic reaction to contrast agents
  • Patient is currently, or has been treated with paclitaxel or other chemotherapeutic agents within 12-months of the index procedure
  • Anticipated treatment with paclitaxel or oral rapamycin during any period in the 9-months after the index procedure
  • Male or female with known intention to procreate within 3 months after the index procedure
  • Female of childbearing potential with a positive pregnancy test within 7 days before the index procedure, or lactating
  • Life expectancy of less than 24 months due to other medical condition
  • Co-morbid condition(s) that could limit the patient's ability to participate in the study, compliance with follow-up requirements or impact the scientific integrity of the study
  • Currently participating in another investigational drug or device study that has not completed the primary endpoint or that clinically interferes with the endpoints of this study
  • Angiographic
