Proven Safety of a DES
with an Abluminal Biodegradable Polymer
- with a 12.3% reduction in MACE compared to the Sirolimus eluting stent at 12 months in LEADERS2
- with no late or very late stent thrombosis in STEALTH I3 out to 4 years
10 times better strut coverage4 of an abluminal biodegradable polymer BES than a durable symmetric polymer SES
- Abluminal biodegradable polymer BES achieves 96.4% of near to complete strut coverage
More than 20 times better stent apposition4 of an abluminal biodegradable polymer BES than a durable symmetric polymer SES
- A high pacing stimulation induced abnormal vasomotion5 (vasoconstruction) of the Sirolimus eluting stented vessel when normal vasomotion (vasodilation) was observed in the Biolimus A9™ eluting stented vessel
