Study designMulticentre randomised prospective controlled trial
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study type Participant information sheet
Scientific titleA multicentre randomised controlled trial of drug-eluting versus bare metal stents in the treatment of patients over 80 years of age with complex coronary artery disease
Study acronymXIMA
Study objectivesThe treatment of complex coronary disease causing limiting symptoms of angina with drug-eluting stent (DES) technology will prove superior to bare metal stent (BMS) technology, with respect to a combined endpoint of mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), requirement for target vessel revascularisation and severe haemorrhage, in patients aged 80 or above.
Ethics approval(s)King's college hospital research ethics committee approved on the 27th August 2008 ((ref: 08/H0808/107)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedCoronary disease; acute coronary syndromes
InterventionThe treatment is a procedure percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients are randomised to receive either a Drug eluting stent or a Bare metal stent. Both arms are followed up for 1 year.
Intervention typeOther
