Brief Summary: The main objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Liposomal Alendronate in the treatment of de novo stenotic lesions in native coronary arteries in a population undergoing PCI with implantation of a bare metal stent. Study hypothesis: Liposomal Alendronate will reduce in-stent restenosis as compared to placebo.
Detailed Description: This is a Phase II dose-finding, randomized, multi-center, prospective, double blind clinical study. Subjects undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the Presillion™ CoCr bare metal stent will be randomized into three groups and administered (in a single dose intravenously (IV) through a peripheral venous catheter) either: low dose Liposomal Alendronate of 0.001 mg, high dose Liposomal Alendronate of 0.01 mg, or placebo (IV saline infusion) on a 1:1:1 basis. All subjects will undergo angiographic follow-up at 6 months and 110 subjects enrolled from pre-specified sites will undergo intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) at baseline and follow-up at 6 months.
