NCT ID NCT01496638
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at the best way to place stents in heart arteries that have a significant side branch. It compares placing stents in both the main artery and the side branch versus stenting only the main artery and treating the side branch if needed. The goal is to see which approach reduces the risk of heart-related death, heart attacks, and the need for repeat procedures. The trial involves 450 people with stable or unstable angina.
