Official title
TITAN-PARADISE Pilot: TicIn for the Treatment of Coronary Lesions - Plaque Regression and Stabilization With Sirolimus Elution (Pilot Study)
Overview
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the use of the Selution SLR sirolimus-eluting balloon, in addition to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), for the preventive treatment of non-flow-limiting vulnerable coronary lesions, compared to GDMT alone, in adult patients with multivessel coronary artery disease and a recent acute coronary syndrome (within 90 days). The main research question is: Does the use of the Selution SLR sirolimus-eluting balloon in combination with GDMT reduce the progression and vulnerability of non-flow-limiting vulnerable coronary plaques? Participants will undergo * PCI procedure with baseline IVUS-NIRS assessment * Follow-up coronary angiography at 6 months with IVUS-NIRS assessment * Clinical follow-up at 3, 6, and 24 months after study enrollment
Interventions
- Device Sirolimus drug eluting ballooon therapy
Non-flow limiting vulnerable coronary plaques are treated using sirolimus drug eluting balloon therapy additional to guidelines directed medical therapy. - Drug Optimal guidelines-directed medical therapies (GDMT)
Optimal guidelines-directed medical therapies (GDMT) to reduce plaque burden and vulnerability for non-flow limiting vulnerable plaques
Primary outcome measures
- Absolute change in the IVUS-NIRS derived lipid core burden index (MAXLCBI4mm) between baseline and 6-months follow-up. [Time frame: Between baseline and 6-months follow-up.]
Secondary outcome measures (12)

- IVUS parameter (maximal diameter stenosis, MaxS,%) before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and at follow-up angiography. [Time frame: pre procedure, immediately after the procedure and at 6(±30days) months follow-up.]
- IVUS parameter (lumen volume, LV, mm3) before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and at follow-up angiography. [Time frame: pre procedure, immediately after the procedure and at 6(±30days) months follow-up.]
- IVUS parameter (vessel volume, VV, mm3) before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and at follow-up angiography. [Time frame: pre procedure, immediately after the procedure and at 6(±30days) months follow-up.]
- IVUS parameter (plaque burden, VV-LV) before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and at follow-up angiography. [Time frame: pre procedure, immediately after the procedure and at 6(±30days) months follow-up.]
- IVUS parameter (late lumen loss, LLL) before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and at follow-up angiography. [Time frame: pre procedure, immediately after the procedure and at 6(±30days) months follow-up.]
