B: Inclusion and exclusion criteria 36

Inclusion criteria: 37Patients with one or more significant coronary artery stenosis (defined as ≥70% by visual 38assessment or ≥50% with Fractional Flow Reserve <0·80) or a left main coronary stenosis 39≥50% by visual assessment, deemed suitable for percutaneous coronary intervention with 40ALL of the following criteria: 41 1. Patient are 75 years old and above 42 2. Patients have acute coronary syndrome, or, stable angina or silent ischemia. 43 - Stable angina, in a patient with myocardial ischemia despite optimal medical therapy 44OR 45 - Acute coronary syndrome including: unstable angina, non ST- or ST-segment 46

5

Patients must sign informed consent as per local law and comply with all study 8process during follow up for at least one year. 9 10Exclusion criteria (any criteria) 11 1. Indication for myocardial revascularisation by coronary artery bypass grafting, 12 2. Subjects unable to tolerate, obtain or comply with dual antiplatelet therapy for at 13least six month (acute coronary syndrome) or at least one month (stable angina or silent 14ischemia), 15 3. Subjects requiring additional surgery (cardiac or non-cardiac) within one month, 16 4. Non-cardiac co-morbidities with life expectancy less than 1 year, 17 5. Prior hemorrhagic stroke, 18 6. Known allergy to aspirin, 19 7. At least one contra indication to all the authorized P2Y12 inhibitors at the requested 20dose (in case of contra indication to only one of two of the P2Y12 inhibitors, the investigators 21are allowed to use the P2Y12 inhibitors for which no allergy is known). 22 8. Silent ischemia <10% of the left myocardium with fractional flow reserve ≥0·80. 23 9. Participation in another randomized clinical trial. 24

C: Study devices 25

The Synergy II coronary stent delivery system (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA) is 26a device consisting of three components, including 27 1. a thin-strut (74µm) platinum-chromium stent platform 28 2. an ultrathin bioabsorbable poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) polymer mixed with the 29drug and only applied to the abluminal surface. 30 3. the drug, everolimus, is a sirolimus derivative, delivered in the vicinity of the vessel 31wall upon stent implantation. 32 33The drug eluting stent is crimped onto a rapid exchange delivery system which includes a 34high pressure, semi-compliant balloon onto the distal tip of of the system. The delivery 35system consists in a balloon with two radiopaque markers nominally 0·4 mm longer than the 36stent at each end, to facilitate proper stent placement. Everolimus is the therapeutic agent, 37rapidly absorbed in vessel wall, and able to reversibly inhibit growth factor-stimulated medial 38smooth muscle cells proliferation. Current data suggest that everolimus, on a molecular 39level, forms a complex with the cytoplasmic proteins that inhibit the cell cycle between the 40G0 and G1 phase. The result is an interruption of the cascade governing cell metabolism, 41growth, and proliferation. The bioabsorbable polymer has totally disappeared at three 42months. For this trial, the Synergy II stent was available in five stent diameters (2·25 – 4·0 43mm), six lengths (8-38mm) and one drug dosage (1�g/mm2). 44 45The control Omega and Rebel bare metal stents ((Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA) 46

6

consist of a platinum-chromium platforms, similar to the Synergy II stent without the 1abluminal polymer, and are crimped onto the same balloon delivery system. 2The Omega and Rebel stents are balloon expandable platinum chromium alloy, thin strut 3(81µm) stents pre-mounted on a monorail catheter. The delivery system consists in a 4balloon with two radiopaque markers nominally 0·4 mm longer than the stent at each end, to 5facilitate proper stent placement. For this trial, the Rebel stent was available in five stent 6diameters (2·25 – 4·0 mm), and six lengths (8-38mm), identical to the Synergy II stents. 7 8

D: End point definitions 9

Primary end point: 10The primary end point (superiority) was the cumulative incidence of a composite of all-cause 11mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke and ischemia driven target lesion revascularisation at 12one year (with all randomized subjects having reached the one year follow-up). 13 14 1.All-cause death: 15 Death was defined as either cardiovascular, non-cardiovascular or from unknown 16reason. 17 - cardiovascular death: includes sudden cardiac death, death due to acute myocardial 18infarction, death due to heart failure or cardiogenic shock, death due to ischemic or 19hemorrhagic stroke, death due to other cardiovascular causes, and death due to bleeding. 20 - non cardiovascular death is defined as any death not covered by cardiovascular 21death. Categories include but are not limited to: 22 � Pulmonary causes 23 � Renal causes 24 � Gastrointestinal causes 25 � Infection (includes sepsis) 26 � Non-infectious (e.g., systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS)) 27 ο Malignancy (i.e., new malignancy, worsening of prior malignancy) 28 ο Accidental/Trauma 29 ο Suicide 30 ο Non-cardiovascular system organ failure (e.g., hepatic failure) 31 ο Non-cardiovascular surgery 32 ο Other non-cardiovascular 33 - Undetermined cause of death refers to a death not attributable to one of the above 34categories of cardiovascular death or to a non-cardiovascular cause. For this trial all deaths 35with undetermined causes will be included in the cardiovascular category. 36 37 2. Myocardial infarction: 38 Myocardial infarction was defined according to the third universal definition 39(Thygesen K, Alpert JS, Jaffe AS, et al. Third universal definition of myocardial infarction. 40Eur Heart J. 2012;33(20):2551-67). 41 42

3. Stroke 43 Stroke are defined as an acute episode of a focal or global neurological deficit with at 44least one of the following: 45

7

- Change in the level of consciousness. 1 - Hemiplegia. 2 - Hemiparesis. 3 - Numbness or sensory loss affecting one side of the body. 4 - Dysphasia or aphasia. 5 - Hemianopsia. 6 - Amaurosis fugax. 7 - or other neurological signs or symptoms consistent with stroke. 8 9Stroke: duration of a focal or global neurological deficit ≥ 24 h; OR < 24 h if available 10neuroimaging documents a new hemorrhage or infarct; OR the neurological deficit results in 11death. 12 13Transient ischemic Attack: duration of a focal or global neurological deficit < 24 h, any 14variable neuroimaging does not demonstrate a new hemorrhage or infarct. 15No other readily identifiable non-stroke cause for the clinical presentation (e.g. brain tumour, 16trauma, infection, hypoglycaemia, peripheral lesion, pharmacological influences), to be 17determined by or in conjunction with the designated neurologist. 18 19Confirmation of the diagnosis by at least one of the following: 20 - Neurologist or neurosurgical specialist 21

- Neuroimaging procedure (CT scan or brain MRI), but stroke may be diagnosed on 22clinical grounds alone. 23 24 4. Ischemia-driven target lesion revascularisation 25 A coronary revascularisation procedure may be either a coronary artery bypass graft 26surgery or a percutaneous coronary intervention. A target lesion (vessel) revascularisation is 27considered ischemia-driven if the target lesion diameter stenosis is ≥50% by visual 28assessment, involving the lesion itself and 5 mm of proximal and/or distal margin and any of 29the following criteria for ischemia are met: 30 - A positive functional study corresponding to the area served by the target lesion; or 31 - Ischemic ECG changes at rest in a distribution consistent with the target vessel; or 32 - Typical ischemic symptoms referable to the target lesion; or 33 - Fractional Flow Reserve of the target lesion ≤ 0·80. 34 35Secondary end points: 36 1. Primary end point at 30 days, 180 days and 2 years 37 2. All individual component of the primary endpoint at 30 days, 180 days, 1 year, and 382 years: 39 ο all-cause death, 40 ο myocardial Infarction (according to Third Universal Definition), 41 ο stroke, 42 ο ischemia-driven target lesion revascularisation 43 44 3. Coronary revascularisations 45All revascularisation (ischemia-driven and non-ischemia driven) at 30 days, 180 days, 1 year 46and 2 years: 47 - All target lesion revascularisation (new revascularisation of the lesion 48revascularized in the index procedure). 49

8

- All target vessel revascularisation (new revascularisation of the main epicardial 1coronary artery or arteries which contains the target lesion(s), including its branches, or 2grafts (arterial or venous) supplying the target lesion territory). 3 - All non target vessel revascularisation (revascularisation of a lesion in the epicardial 4vessel/branch/graft that do not contains the target lesion). 5 - Complete revascularisation at baseline procedure: Complete revascularisation is 6defined as revascularisation of all significant coronary artery stenosis. It will be added in the 7Supplementary Appendix (End Point definition). 8 9 10 4. Bleeding: 11The Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) classification was used in the 12SENIOR trial. Bleeding BARC 2-5 and BARC 3-5 were reported. 13Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) classification: 14 - Type 0: no bleeding 15 - Type 1: bleeding that is not actionable and does not cause the patient to seek 16unscheduled performance of studies, hospitalization, or treatment by a healthcare 17professional ; may include episodes leading to self-discontinuation of medical therapy by the 18patient without consulting a healthcare professional 19 20 - Type 2: any overt, actionable sign of hemorrhage (eg. More bleeding than would be 21expected for a clinical circumstance, including bleeding found by imaging alone) that does 22not fit the criteria for type 3, 4 or 5 but does meet at least one of the following criteria: (1) 23requiring nonsurgical, medical intervention by a healthcare professional, (2) leading to 24hospitalization or increased level of care, or (3) prompting evaluation. 25 26 - Type 3: 27 ο Type 3a: 28 - overt bleeding plus hemoglobin drop of 3 to <5 g/dL* (provided hemoglobin 29drop is related to bleed. 30 - any transfusion with overt bleeding. 31 ο Type 3b: 32 - overt bleeding plus hemoglobin drop ≥5 g/dl (provided hemoglobin drop is 33related to bleed). 34 - cardiac tamponade. 35 - bleeding requiring surgical intervention for control (excluding 36dental/nasal/skin/hemorrhoid). 37 - bleeding requiring intravenous vasoactive agents. 38 ο Type 3c: 39

- intracranial hemorrhage (does not include microbleeds or hemorrhagic 40transformation, does include intraspinal). 41

- subcategories confirmed by autopsy or imaging or lumbar puncture. 42 - intraocular bleed compromising vision. 43 44 - Type 4: CABG-related bleeding: 45 - perioperative intracranial bleeding within 48 h. 46 - reoperation after closure of sternotomy for the purpose of controlling bleeding. 47 - transfusion of ≥ 5 U whole blood or packed red blood cells within a 48-h 48period. 49

9

- chest tube output ≥ 2L within a 24-h period. 1 2 - Type 5: fatal bleeding: 3

- Type 5a: probable fatal bleeding; no autopsy or imaging confirmation but 4clinically suspicious. 5- Type 5b: definite fatal bleeding; overt bleeding or autopsy or imaging 6confirmation. 7

8Bleeding complications (BARC 2-5 and 3-5) at 30 days, 180 days, 1 year and 2 years. 9 10 5. Net clinical benefit at 30 days, 180 days, 1 year and 2 years: 11Association of composite events (all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, ischemia 12driven TLR, and bleedings BARC 2-5). 13 14 6. Stent thrombosis: 15Definite and probable stent thrombosis will be defined according to Academic Research 16Consortium at 30 days, 180 days, 1 year and 2 years. 17 - Timing of Stent Thrombosis 18 ο Acute stent thrombosis: 0 to 24 hours after stent implantation 19 ο Subacute stent thrombosis > 24 hours to 30 days after stent implantation 20 ο Late stent thrombosis > 30 days to 1 year after stent implantation 21 ο Very late stent thrombosis > 1 year after stent implantation 22 23Stent thrombosis is reported as a cumulative value over time and at the various individual 24time points specified above. Time 0 is defined as the time point after the guiding catheter 25has been removed and the subject has left the catheterization laboratory. 26 27 - Stent Thrombosis Definitions: 28 ο Definite Stent Thrombosis 29 Definite stent thrombosis is considered to have occurred by either 30angiographic or pathological confirmation: 31 a. Angiographic confirmation of stent thrombosis 32

The presence of a thrombus that originates in the stent or in the segment 5 33mm proximal or distal to the stent and presence of at least 1 of the following 34criteria within a 48-hour time window: 35 1. Acute onset of ischemic symptoms at rest 36 2. New ischemic ECG changes that suggest acute ischemia 37 3. Typical rise and fall in cardiac biomarkers (refer to definition of 38spontaneous MI: Troponin or CK-MB > 99th percentile of URL) 39

4. Non occlusive thrombus 40 Intracoronary thrombus is defined as a (spheric, ovoid, or irregular) non 41calcified filling defect or lucency surrounded by contrast material (on 42three sides or within a coronary stenosis) seen in multiple projections, or 43persistence of contrast material within the lumen, or a visible 44embolization of intraluminal material downstream. 45 5. Occlusive thrombus 46 TIMI 0 or TIMI 1 intra stent or proximal to a stent up to the most 47adjacent proximal side branch or main branch (if originates from the side 48branch). 49

10

Pathological confirmation of stent thrombosis. 1Evidence of recent thrombus within the stent determined at autopsy or 2via examination of tissue retrieved following thrombectomy. 3

4 ο Probable Stent Thrombosis 5 Clinical definition of probable stent thrombosis is considered to have occurred after6 intracoronary stenting in the following cases: 7

a. Any unexplained death within the first 30 days 8 b. Irrespective of the time after the index procedure, any myocardial 9infarction that is related to documented acute ischemia in the territory of the 10implanted stent without angiographic confirmation of stent thrombosis and in 11the absence of any other obvious cause. 12

E: Randomisation 13

Randomisation was carried out through a web-based system available 24h/d all year round 14and maintained by the Data Coordinating Center (Cardiovascular European Research 15Center, CERC, Massy, France). It was stratified by centre and by choice of antiplatelet 16agent, which was entered in the Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) before 17randomisation to avoid inequality between the two groups based on an unblinded 18physician’s decision. Also the duration of DAPT (1 to 6 months) was entered in IWRS before 19randomisation for the same reason. 20 21
