Sponsor's own description
STAR is a minimal-risk pragmatic clinical trial of patients admitted for a CTO-PCI procedure. The overall objective of the STAR Study is to address the current gaps in knowledge regarding use of STAR during CTO-PCI, as a prospective, multi-center study of 150 participants with randomization of timing of staged PCI. Five sites will be selected to participate in STAR from a national network of highly experienced CTO-PCI centers across the United States.
