Targeting "diabetic" coronary artery disease merging the properties of sirolimus coated balloon with sirolimus eluting stent.

Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) represents a challenging subset of population as they experience worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention than patients without diabetes. We evaluated the 2-year efficacy and safety profile of the Abluminus DES+ in patients with diabetes within the population enrolled in the large multicenter en-ABL e-registry.

Methods: Multicenter, prospective, all-comers registry performed in 31 centers in India.

Merging the properties of a sirolimus coated balloon with those of a bioresorbable polymer sirolimus eluting stent to address the "diabetes issue". Results from the En-Abl multicenter registry.

Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have poorer outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention than patients without diabetes. The Abluminus DES+™ drug-eluting stent (DES) features a novel technology of fusion coating of PLLA bioresorbable polymer on both the abluminal surface of the stent and exposed parts of the balloon. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy/safety profile of the Abluminus DES+ in an all-comers population with minimal exclusion criteria and with a specific focus on diabetic patients.

First-in-human evaluation of the novel BioMime sirolimus-eluting coronary stent with bioabsorbable polymer for the treatment of single de novo lesions located in native coronary vessels - results from the meriT-1 trial.

Aims: We report the initial human evaluation of the novel BioMimeTM sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) (Meril Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., Gujarat, India) with an ultra-thin stent platform (65 μm) and a biodegradable polymer for the treatment of de novo coronary lesions.
