Official title

Safety and Clinical Performance of the Drug Eluting Resorbable Coronary Magnesium Scaffold System (Freesolve) in the Treatment of Subjects With de Novo Lesions in Native Coronary Arteries

Overview

The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Freesolve resorbable magnesium scaffold (RMS) in the treatment of subjects with up to two de novo lesions in native coronary arteries compared to the Xience coronary drug-eluting stent (DES) system

Detailed description

The BIOMAG-III clinical trial is a prospective, international, multi-center, single-blinded, randomized controlled, non-inferiority trial to compare the Freesolve Sirolimus Eluting Coronary Resorbable Magnesium Scaffold (Freesolve RMS) System with the Xience Everolimus Eluting Stent (Xience DES) System. with respect to Target Lesion Failure (TLF) rate at 12 months. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion Freesolve to Xience. A total of up to 1859 subjects will be randomized at up to 120 total sites worldwide including North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Clinical follow-up will be conducted at 1, 6, and 12 months and at 2, 3, 4, and 5 years post-procedure.
