Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - CABG
Treatment: Devices - Resolute Integrity Stent
Treatment: Devices - Resolute Onyx Stent

Active comparator: FFR guided PCI - Patients undergoing PCI will have FFR measured with a St. Jude Medical coronary pressure wire across all lesions. If the FFR is =0.80, then PCI will be performed with the Medtronic Resolute Integrity (or Onyx) drug-eluting stent (DES) as per usual routine. If the FFR is \>0.80 then PCI will be deferred. Only those sites with prior experience measuring FFR will be included in the FAME 3 trial. These patients in whom FFR of a particular lesion was not possible will be included in all analyses based on the intention to treat principle.

Active comparator: CABG - CABG will be performed as per clinical routine at each participating center. Both off-pump and on-pump surgery are acceptable, as long as the surgeon and the site are experienced in the particular technique. An internal mammary graft to the LAD should be attempted in all cases, if feasible. Complete arterial revascularization is strongly recommended, however, each center should use a conduit strategy with which they are most comfortable. All vessels = 1,5 mm in diameter and with = 50% stenosis should be bypassed, if technically feasible.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* 1. Age = 21 years with angina and/or evidence of myocardial ischemia
