Stents, scaffolds and DCB

Find all the latest content on stents and scaffolds published on this website.

Since 1986, when the first cardiovascular stent was implanted, the development of drug-eluting stents (DES) and the recent introduction of bioresorbable scaffolds have revolutionised interventional cardiology. Keep up-to-date with the latest research; evolving tools, devices and techniques; the role of adjunctive pharmacotherapy; advances in imaging techniques as well as the use of invasive imaging and functional assessment.

Novel Supreme DES with early synchronized antiproliferative drug delivery to inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation after DES implantation in coronary artery disease: results of the PIONEER III randomized clinical trial

06 May 2021

The PIONEER III trial aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of the biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting Supreme stent compared to durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (Xience or Promus), completely releasing the drug by 120 days.
