About this trial
The hypothesis of the study is, that there is a significant interaction in treatment effect between the OCT pattern of neointima (heterogeneous or homogeneous) and the type of percutaneous coronary intervention (drug-eluting stent or drug-coated balloon) in patients with in-stent restenosis.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Patients with ischemic symptoms and/or evidence of myocardial ischemia
Presence of ≥ 50% restenosis after prior implantation of drug-eluting stents in native coronary vessels.
Availability of an OCT-pullback of the target lesion
Written informed consent by the patient for participation in the study.
Disqualifiers
Cardiogenic shock
Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction within 48 hours from symptom onset.
Target lesion located in left main trunk or bypass graft.
Additional coronary intervention planned within 30 days of the procedure.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Composite endpoint of major adverse cardiac event (MACE)
Composite endpoint of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) * all-cause death * myocardial infarction * target lesion revascularization (TLR)
Secondary outcomes
Target lesion failure (TLF): a composite of cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction and TLR
Individual endpoints of the composite endpoints
* all-cause death * myocardial infarction * target lesion revascularization (TLR)
Stent thrombosis according to the ARC criteria
Safety endpoint: a composite endpoint of all-cause death and myocardial infarction
