Real-World Outcomes of Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty in Coronary Artery Disease
Sponsor: Kristian Rivera
Summary
The Real-World Drug-Coated Balloon Registry (RW-DCB) is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, observational cohort study evaluating the use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in routine clinical practice. The registry will include consecutive adults in whom a coronary DCB strategy is planned or attempted, regardless of the clinical presentation, lesion type, DCB platform, success of lesion preparation, successful delivery of the DCB, or final treatment strategy. The study does not assign any treatment or require additional procedures, tests, or visits. All clinical decisions, including lesion preparation, device selection, use of intracoronary imaging or physiology, antithrombotic therapy, and follow-up, remain at the discretion of the treating team. The retrospective cohort will include eligible procedures performed from January 2022 until prospective data collection begins at each participating center. Prospective enrollment will continue for at least 24 months after activation of the first center. Each participant will be followed for up to 24 months after the index procedure. The primary outcome is target lesion failure at 12 months, defined as cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization. The registry will also evaluate procedural outcomes, DCB delivery failure, changes in treatment strategy, bailout stenting, other clinical events, antithrombotic treatment, and outcomes associated with lesion preparation and specific DCB platforms. The operational target is at least 2,000 participants, with no upper enrollment limit.

Conditions
Interventions
Coronary Drug-Coated Balloon
The exposure of interest is an intended coronary drug-coated balloon strategy during percutaneous coronary intervention using any commercially available DCB platform. Treatment is not assigned by the registry. Device selection, lesion preparation, adjunctive imaging, antithrombotic therapy, and the final treatment strategy are determined by the treating team. Attempted strategies remain included when the DCB cannot cross the lesion, cannot be delivered, or cannot be inflated, including subsequent crossover or bailout stenting.
