* One non-target lesion may be treated in a non-target vessel as follows:

* Non-target lesion in non-target vessel must be treated with commercially available TAXUS stent if use of drug eluting stent required
* Treatment must be deemed a clinical angiographic success, without requiring use of unplanned additional stents(s)
