Impact of Real-time Angiographic Co-registered OCT on PCI Results - the OPTICO-integration II Study

Intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging allows for high-resolution characterization of coronary lesions. Difficulties in matching cross-sectional OCT-images with angiographic lesion localization, however, may limit its clinical utilization. The investigators sought to prospectively assess the impact of a novel system of real-time OCT-coregistration with angiography (ACR) compared to OCT alone and to the clinical standard proceeding (angiographic guided-PCI) all used for coronary lesion evaluation before percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The investigators hypothesize that the use of ACR will lead to less incidence of insufficient covered coronary lesions (geographical mismatch) and/or a less rate of edge dissections after PCI (combined primary study endpoint)

About this study

In this randomized blinded pilot-study the effect of pre-PCI planning by angiographic-co-registered OCT (ACR) compared to OCT or angiographic evaluation alone with respect to the entire result after PCI will be investigated. A special focus (primary endpoint) will be on the incidence of geographical mismatch (GM) and/or major edge dissections. Eligible patients will be randomized in three groups.

Group 1 Pre-PCI-OCT: Patients underwent OCT-imaging before PCI. Lesion assessment, selection of PCI landing zone as well as stent selection will be performed by investigators based on OCT findings.

Group 2: Pre-PCI-ACR: Patients underwent ACR-imaging before PCI. Lesion assessment, selection of PCI landing zone as well as stent selection will be performed by investigators based on ACR-findings.

Group 3:OCT-Blinded/Angiographic guided PCI: Lesion assessment, selection of PCI landing zone as well as stent selection will be performed by investigators only based on angiographic lesion evaluation (standard care).

For outcome analysis all study groups underwent post-PCI-OCT imaging as soon as investigators assume angiographic justiciable PCI-results (TIMI III, no residual stenosis > 50%; no angiographic definable or suspicious edge dissections, angiographic acceptable stent expansion without evidence for malapposition). OCT imaging analysis will be performed within a OCT core-lab by two investigators blinded for the randomization group.

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of a combined endpoint based on "major edge dissections" (I) AND/OR "geographical mismatch" (II) [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Analysis of primary endpoint will be assessed by evaluation of proximal and/or distal stent end.

    I) Major edge dissection (MED):

    Major: ≥60 degrees of the circumference of the vessel at site of dissection and/or ≥3 mm in length

    II) Geographical mismatch (GM):

    Untreated plaque with a minimal lumen area <4,5mm2 within 5mm of the reference segment.

    In the postPCI-OCT analysis it is considered as no geographical mismatch, if:

    • the segment of the lesion is fully covered AND
    • the stent protrudes maximal 5mm beyond the predetermined landing zone.

    If one of these criteria is not fulfilled, it is considered as geographical mismatch

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence of "major edge dissections" [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    All secondary endpoints of OCT will be assessed by evaluation of proximal and/or distal stent end/segment.

  2. Incidence of "all edge dissections" (major (I) and minor (II)) [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    (I) ≥60 degrees of the circumference of the vessel at site of dissection and/or ≥3 mm in length (II) Any visible edge dissection <60 degrees of the circumference of the vessel and < 3 mm in length

  3. Incidence of "geographical mismatch" [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    see primary endpoint

  4. Stent expansion [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Defined by the MSA achieved relative to the proximal or distal reference segments.

    The stent length is divided into 2 equal segments (proximal and distal), and the MSA is determined in each segment.

    • Optimal stent expansion: The MSA of the segment is ≥95% of the related reference lumen area
    • Acceptable stent expansion: The MSA of the segment is ≥90% and <95% of the related reference lumen area
    • Unacceptable stent expansion: The MSA of the segment is <90% of the related lumen area
  5. Inacceptable stent expansion [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    see outcome 5

  6. Incidence of "malapposition" [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Incompletely apposed stent struts in at least 5 consecutive OCT-frames (defined as stent struts clearly separated from the vessel wall (lumen border/plaque border) without any tissue behind the struts with a distance from the adjacent intima of ≥0.2 mm and not associated with any side branch).

    Malapposition will be further classified as:

    A) Major: If associated with stent underexpansion (unacceptable stent expansion as defined above) B) Minor: If not associated with significant underexpansion (optimal or acceptable stent expansion as defined above) C) Major and minor

  7. Distance between target and actual lesion coverage [mm]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Defined as the distance between target landing zone and actual landing zone of stent location (proximal and distal end). Therefore, the lesion is divided in two equal halves, so that every segment (proximal and distal) can be analyzed for itself.

  8. Minimal Stent Area (MSA) of target lesion [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Minimal lumen area covered by stent.

  9. Acute Luminal Gain of target lesion [mm]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Gain of Minimal Lumen Diameter (MLD) between prePCI- and postPCI-OCT

    Addition of each stent length which were used for target lesion

    Number of stents which were used for target lesion

  15. Maximal stent diameter [mm]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Maximal stent diameter used for target lesion

  16. Complications associated with OCT-examination [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Complications between advancing and pullback of OCT catheter

  17. Complications during hospitalization [%]

    Time frame: Time of PCI Procedure - participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 24 hours

    Defined as: new ACS; stent thrombosis of study culprit lesion; new unplaned coronary angiography; new revascularization (PCI/CABG); apoplex/TIA; pacemaker implantation; anaphylactic shock; contrast-induced nephropathy; bleeding; death
