Primary Outcome Measures:
- The first occurrence of cardiovascular death, recurrent myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, or new or worsening NYHA Class IV heart failure [ Time Frame: up to 180 days ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Stroke [ Time Frame: up to 30 days ]
- Key Net Benefit Outcome: The first occurence of CV death, MI, stroke, cardiogenic shock or new or worsening NHYA Class IV heart failure [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]
- Cardiovascular Mortality [ Time Frame: up to 180 days ]
- Key Secondary Efficacy Outcome: The first occurence of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, new or worsening NYHA class IV heart failure, stent thrombosis and target vessel revascularization [ Time Frame: up to 180 days ]
Other Outcome Measures:
- Primary outcome at 30 days and 1 year [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]
- Components of primary outcome and secondary outcomes [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]CV death, MI, cardiogenic shock, new or worsening class IV heart failure, stroke, stent thrombosis, target vessel revascularization assessed separately at 30 days, 180 days and one year
- All-cause mortality [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]All-cause mortality at 30 days, 180 days and 1 year
- Composite of CV death, MI, cardiogenic shock, or new or worsening NYHA class IV heart failure at 30 days, 180 days [ Time Frame: up to 180 days ]Composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, or new or worsening NYHA class IV heart failure at 30 days, 180 days
- TIMI flow rates, no reflow [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]
- Stent thrombosis [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]
- Distal embolization [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]
- Left main thrombus as a complication of the PCI procedure [ Time Frame: up to 1 year ]

| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
|
Active Comparator: Upfront Thrombectomy followed by PCI
Upfront manual aspiration thrombectomy followed by PCI
|
Procedure: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with or without manual aspiration thrombectomy |
|
Active Comparator: PCI Alone
PCI without upfront manual aspiration thrombectomy
|
Procedure: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with or without manual aspiration thrombectomy |
Detailed Description:
The hypothesis for TOTAL is that the routine use of manual aspiration thrombectomy with an aspiration catheter (Export®) with PCI compared to PCI alone will reduce the incidence of cardiovascular death, recurrent myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, or new or worsening NYHA Class IV heart failure (HF) at 180 days in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI.
