Background summary
Treatment of lesions allocated in small or mid-sized coronary vessels still represents a challenge for interventional cardiologists and remains an independent predictor for angiographic restenosis, even after the introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES). Several studies have demonstrated the good clinical outcomes of DES, in this particular setting. however even the latest generations of DES are still associated with a higher
incidence of restenosis, vessel thrombosis and myocardial infarction in this setting; without reaching a plateau of adverse events. Lately drug-coated balloons (DCB) have emerged as an attractive alternative for the treatment of coronary de-novo lesions. In the last years, several new generation DCB have been developed, with the aim of improving the trackability and deliverability of these devices, along with an improvement of drug release, especially in tortuous and small vessels. Until 2016, only paclitaxel-eluting DCB were marketed, due to the specific lipophilic
properties of paclitaxel, that render this drug particularly appealing for local delivery.
However, currently available DES all elute sirolimus or analogue drugs (the so called "- limus" class) due to the improved outcome shown when compared to paclitaxel-eluting stents, that were abandoned almost a decade ago due to reduced efficacy and increased thrombotic risk. Despite no specific issues were raised for currently available paclitaxel-eluting DCB used for coronary applications, sirolimus has well recognized
antiproliferative properties and a wider therapeutic window. The main issue with this drug delivered locally without prosthesis implantation is related to its intrinsic lower lipophilia (thus, the ability of penetrating into tissues), that could hamper its ability to exert local antirestenotic effects.
In 2016, the first sirolimus-coated DCB obtained the CE mark and was marketed in Europe and Asia (Magic Touch, Concept Medical, FL, USA); this balloon elutes sirolimus, a powerful cell growth-inhibitory drug, characterized by a low lipophilicity. This device has been studies in several lesion settings till date, but not by means of a study adequately powered for clinical endpoints.
Study objective
The hypothesis of the TRANSFORM II study is the non-inferiority of Sirolimus Coated Balloon versus Everolimus Eluting Stent in terms of Target Lesion Failure

Inclusion criteria
- age >18 years;
- all patients with a clinical indication to PCI (stable coronary artery disease or acute coronary syndromes);
- native coronary artery lesion in a vessel with diameter >2.0 mm and ≦3.0 mm at visual estimation;
- maximum lesion lenght: 40 mm.
- informed consent to participate in the study.
Exclusion criteria
- patients with known (and untreatable) hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, heparin, clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticagrelor, sirolimus or contrast media, which cannot be adequately pre-medicated;
- patients participating in another clinical study;
- subject is a woman who is pregnant or nursing (pregnancy test, either urine or blood test must be performed within 7 days prior to the index procedure in woman of child-bearing potential, and must not commit to initiating a pregnancy for 12 weeks after implantation, using effective contraception);
- creatinine clearance <30 ml/min;

- concomitant PCI at the same vessel with any device (vessels are considered: left anterior descending, circumflex or right coronary
artery);
- pre-dilatation of the target lesion not performed or not successful (residual stenosis >30%);
- severe calcification of the target vessel, at lesion site but also proximally;
