N1 - Funding Information:
This study is an investigator-driven clinical trial sponsored by European Cardiovascular Research Institute and supported by an unrestricted research grant from TERUMO Corporation, Tokyo, Japan. The Executive Committee (ExC) is responsible for scientific content and oversight of the study and oversees publication. The Steering Committee is comprised of the ExC and national/regional lead investigators. The Operational Committee is responsible for executing and implementing study procedures under the supervision of the ExC. The Data Monitoring Committee is an independent, multidisciplinary board composed of 3 members who are not directly involved in the conduct of the trial and is responsible for ensuring the safety of the patients participating in the clinical study. The Data Monitoring Committee members will seriously consider recommending early termination of the trial when the abbreviated DAPT regimen would show a statistically significant increased rate of (cardiovascular) mortality or of MACCE, provided the latter is not counterbalanced by a reciprocal reduction in the rate of major bleeding. An independent, multidisciplinary, and blinded CEC is responsible for the adjudication of all investigator-reported as well as electronically triggered potential end points events from the electronic case report form. Independent study monitoring and site management are performed by Cardiovascular European Research Center (Massy, France), Cardialysis (Rotterdam, the Netherlands), and CV Quest (Tokyo, Japan). Data management, central data review, and statistical analyses will be conducted by an independent academic Clinical Trial Unit located in Bern, Switzerland. The first study patient was randomized in April 2016, and enrolment is projected to reach completion by Q4 2019. At 10th December 2018, 2,196 patients were randomized, and their distribution according to each HBR criterion is shown in Figure 3 .

N2 - Background: The optimal duration of antiplatelet therapy in high–bleeding risk (HBR) patients with coronary artery disease treated with newer-generation drug-eluting bioresorbable polymer-coated stents remains unclear. Design: MASTER DAPT (clinicaltrial.gov NCT03023020) is an investigator-initiated, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled trial comparing an abbreviated versus a standard duration of antiplatelet therapy after bioresorbable polymer-coated Ultimaster (TANSEI) sirolimus-eluting stent implantation in approximately 4,300 HBR patients recruited from ≥100 interventional cardiology centers globally. After a mandatory 30-day dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) run-in phase, patients are randomized to (a) a single antiplatelet regimen until study completion or up to 5 months in patients with clinically indicated oral anticoagulation (experimental 1-month DAPT group) or (b) continue DAPT for at least 5 months in patients without or 2 in patients with concomitant indication to oral anticoagulation, followed by a single antiplatelet regimen (standard antiplatelet regimen). With a final sample size of 4,300 patients, this study is powered to assess the noninferiority of the abbreviated antiplatelet regimen with respect to the net adverse clinical and major adverse cardiac and cerebral events composite end points and if satisfied for the superiority of abbreviated as compared to standard antiplatelet therapy duration in terms of major or clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding. Study end points will be adjudicated by a blinded Clinical Events Committee. Conclusions: The MASTER DAPT study is the first randomized controlled trial aiming at ascertaining the optimal duration of antiplatelet therapy in HBR patients treated with sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable polymer-coated stent implantation.
