Study of MeRes100 in the Treatment of Patient With Coronary Artery Disease.

This is a Multi Center Randomized Control Study of MeRes100 Sirolimus Eluting BioResorbable Vascular Scaffold System in treatment of approximately 484 subjects with Coronary Artery Disease in China. Eligible subjects shall have up to two de novo lesions in different epicardial vessels (One lesion in each coronary artery or it's major branch),Target lesion shall have visually estimated diameter stenosis ≥ 70% (or ≥ 50% and has clinical evidence of myocardial ischemia), lesion length ≤ 24mm, reference vascular diameter visually ≥ 2.75mm and ≤ 4.0mm. And subjects must meet all the study inclusion / exclusion criteria before enrolment in the study.All subjects shall accept clinical follow up at 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years and 5 years post procedure.

This is a Multi Center Randomized (MeRes:XIENCE=1:1) Control Study of MeRes100 Sirolimus Eluting BioResorbable Vascular Scaffold System in treatment of approximately 484 subjects with Coronary Artery Disease in China. The post marketed XIENCE Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System will serve as the control device, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MeRes100 Sirolimus Eluting BioResorbable Vascular Scaffold System in coronary artery disease, and to support the product registration approval of the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA).

Eligible subjects shall have up to two de novo lesions in different epicardial vessels ( One lesion in each coronary artery or it's major branch),Target lesion shall have visually estimated diameter stenosis ≥ 70% (or ≥ 50% and has clinical evidence of myocardial ischemia), lesion length ≤ 24mm, reference vascular diameter visually ≥ 2.75mm and ≤ 4.0mm. And subjects must meet all the study inclusion / exclusion criteria before enrolment in the study.

All the subjects shall accept angiography follow up at 12 months post procedure.

OCT subgroup ((N=80, 40 from test group and 40 from control group) shall accept follow up of OCT at immediately and 12 months post procedure. In segment late lumen loss at 12 months post procedure is the primary endpoint, and the percentage of stent strut neointimal coverage assessed with OCT at 12 months post procedure is the key secondary endpoint.

     / dl (132.6μmol / L) or subject is receiving hemodialysis, ALT or AST were three times greater than the upper limit of normal.

  10. Subjects who anticipated in other drug or medical device clinical trial but haven't finished the primary endpoint evaluation visit.
  11. The investigators judged that subjects were poorly compliance and unable to complete the study as required.
