Brief Summary:
The primary aim of the trial is to determine whether preventive PCI with bioabsorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) (early period) or everolimus-eluting stents (middle and late period) plus optimal medical therapy (OMT) on functionally insignificant (FFR > 0.80) vulnerable coronary plaque, as determined by intracoronary imaging, would result in a significant reduction of the primary composite outcome of death from cardiac causes, target-vessel myocardial infarction (MI), target-vessel revascularization (TVR), and hospitalization for unstable or progressive angina at 2 years, when compared with OMT alone.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Coronary Artery Disease Plaque, Atherosclerotic Device: Coronary intervention Drug: Optimal Medical treatment Phase 4

Detailed Description:

Sub-analysis for each imaging test will be performed as below;

  • NIRS(Near-infrared spectroscopy)
  • OCT(Optical coherence tomography)
  • VH-IVUS(IVUS-derived virtual histology)
  • IVUS(Intravascular ultrasonography)

Extended follow-up:

Considering the nature of functionally insignificant coronary stenosis with vulnerable plaque, most subjects are watched for extended follow-up after the planned 2-year follow-up time point.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Target vessel failure [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    target-vessel failure, which was defined a composite of death from cardiac causes, target-vessel myocardial infarction, ischemic-driven target-vessel revascularization, or hospitalization for unstable or progressive angina


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Death from cardiac causes [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  2. Target-vessel myocardial infarction [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  3. Ischemic-driven target-vessel revascularization [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  4. Hospitalization for unstable or progressive angina [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  5. Death from all, cardiac, or noncardiac causes [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  6. Myocardial infarction [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Periprocedural or spontaneous, target-vessel or non-target-vessel related

  7. Repeat revascularization [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Repeat revascularization (target-vessel or non-target-vessel, ischemia-driven or non-ischemia-driven)

  8. Any hospitalization for cardiac or noncardiac causes [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  9. Target-lesion failure [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction or ischemia-driven target-lesion revascularization

  10. Major adverse cardiac event [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    defined as death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or unplanned rehospitalization due to unstable or progressive angina

  11. Composite of any death, myocardial infarction, or repeat revascularization [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    A composite endpoint is an endpoint that is a combination of multiple clinical endpoints. An event is considered to have occurred if any one of several different events is observed.

  12. Rate of Scaffold or stent thrombosis [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  13. Rate of Stroke [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  14. Rate of Bleeding events [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    life-threatening or disabling, major or minor

  15. Rate of Nonurgent revascularization procedures [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  16. Functional class [ Time Frame: 2 years ]

    It is assessed by the Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) Classification at each point in time.

    The Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) classification has four categories; the minimum and maximum values are 1 and 4 respectively. A higher score means a worse outcome.


  17. Number of anti-anginal medications administered [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Number of anti-anginal medication at each point in time
