Brief Summary: The aim of the study is to compare rapamycin eluting stent and paclitaxel eluting balloon catheter in the treatment of restenosis in bare metal stent.
Detailed Description: Study aims: * Clinical efficacy evaluation of different treatment's strategies, including periprocedural and long-term endpoints defined as: death, myocardial infarction, brain stroke, necessity of repeated revascularization * Evaluation of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) as an optimisation method for direct and long-term revascularization effects * Evaluation of optical coherence tomography as an optimisation method for direct and long-term revascularization effects * Evaluation of late lumen loss and neointimal hyperplasia in stent in long-term follow-up * Analysis of direct and indirect medical costs of alternative treatment strategies Study group: 200 patients with symptomatic restenosis evidenced angiographically in bare metal stent implanted in native coronary artery. Patients will be randomised to 2 therapeutic groups: * Patients treated with rapamycin eluting stent (n=100) * Patients treated with paclitaxel eluting balloon catheter (n=100)
