Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and deliverability of the CRE8 sirolimus-eluting stent and the RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.

Detailed description: This study consists of a randomized controlled cohort and a long stent observational cohort. The randomized controlled trial is a prospective, multi-center, non-inferior, randomized controlled trial. The control device (RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent) used in this trial was provided by Medtronic. RESOLUTE zotarolimus-eluting stent has been already approved by China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) in 2009 and become commercially available in Chinese market. 400 patients enrolled in this trial will be randomly assigned to CRE8 group (n=200) and RESOLUTE group (n=200) in a 1:1 ratio. The long stent observational trial plans to enroll 30 consecutive patients. Patients in the observational cohort will receive the long CRE8 stent with length 38mm.All 430 patients will be required to receive clinical follow-up at 1 month, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months and annually up to 5 years after the procedure, and angiographic follow-up at 9 months after the procedure. The primary endpoint is in-stent LLL at 9 months after the procedure, and the secondary endpoints are device success rate, device-oriented cardiovascular composite endpoint, patient-oriented cardiovascular composite endpoint and stent thrombosis.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Inclusion criteria for randomized cohort:

* Age ≥18 years and ≤ 75 years, male or female without pregnancy;

* Patients with cardiogenic shock, acute infection, known bleeding or coagulation disorder, or with a history of active gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcer, cerebral hemorrhage or subarachnoid hemorrhage and stroke within 6 months;
* Patients who allergic to aspirin, clopidogrel, ticagrelor, ticlopidine, heparin, contrast agent, sirolimus, zotarolimus, polymer, Co-Cr alloy, or with contraindication to aspirin or clopidogrel or ticagrelor;
* Patients with life expectancy less than 1year;
* Patients who had participated in another investigational drug or device trial that has not completed the primary endpoint;
* Patient is in the opinion of the investigator, unable to comply with the requirements of the study protocol;
* Patients who had underwent heart transplant surgery.
