XIENCE V Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (EECSS) China: Post-Approval Randomized Control Trial (RCT)

This is a prospective, randomized, active-controlled, open label, parallel two-arm, multi-center, post-approval study descriptively comparing the XIENCE V EECSS to the CYPHER SELECT PLUS Sirolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System (SECSS) ("CYPHER SELECT PLUS") during commercial use in China.

Objectives

* Confirm the safety and effectiveness of the XIENCE V EECSS for the treatment of patients in China
* Evaluate patient compliance with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT)
* Evaluate physician-determined XIENCE V EECSS acute performance, deliverability, and resource utilization
