Purpose: The BIOFLOW-VI (Biotronik-Safety and Clinical Performance of the Drug Eluting Orsiro Stent in the Treatment of Subjects With De Novo Coronary Artery Lesions-VI) study evaluates the angiographic efficacy, clinical safety, and effectiveness of the ultrathin strut, biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) compared with a durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES). This randomized controlled clinical trial was designed to enable approval of new drug-eluting stents in China.
Methods: A total of 440 eligible patients from 11 sites with up to 2 de novo native coronary artery lesions were randomly assigned to receive either BP-SES (n = 220) or DP-EES (n = 220) from July 2014 to September 2016 in this prospective, multicenter, noninferiority trial.
Findings: The primary end point of 9-month in-stent late lumen loss (LLL) was 0.05 (0.02) mm in the BP-SES group versus 0.07 (0.02) mm in the DP-EES group, with a mean difference of -0.02 mm (95% CI, -0.06 to 0.03; P = 0.44; P < 0.0001). At 1 year, the target lesion failure rate (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization) was similar between the 2 groups (BP-SES 2.3% vs DP-EES 1.4%; P = 0.50). No definite or probable stent thrombosis had occurred in any of the 2 treatment arms.
Implications: The randomized BIOFLOW-VI trial showed that BP-SES was noninferior to DP-EES with regard to the primary end point of 9-month in-stent LLL in a Chinese population. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02870985.

Background: The Orsiro and Genoss DES stents are biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents (DESs) with ultrathin struts.
Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of these two ultrathin DESs in real-world practice.
Methods: From a single-center prospective registry, we included 751 and 931 patients treated with the Genoss DES and Orsiro stents, respectively.

Objectives: Data about coronary bifurcations treated with ultrathin strut drug-eluting stents (DES) using T-and-protrusion (TAP) technique is limited.
Methods: In this study, a total of 84 consecutive patients, who underwent bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with TAP technique using Orsiro® DES (Biotronik, Berlin, Germany), were included. All pre- and post-procedural data, as well as 1- and 2-year follow-up angiograms, were analyzed.
Objectives: Current thin-strut 2 generation drug eluting stents (DES) are considered as optimal standard of care for revascularization of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Ultrathin (≤ 70 μm strut thickness) strut DES have recently been shown to reduce target lesion failure (TLF) compared to thin-strut DES. Therefore, in order to assess the validity of improved outcomes associated with ultrathin-strut DES, we conducted an updated meta-analysis that includes recently published follow-ups of previously conducted randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Background And Objective: Evidence on health economic outcomes for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) comparing different contemporary drug-eluting stents (DES) with each other is scarce, as most previous randomised DES trials did not assess such aspects. This prespecified health economic evaluation of the Comparison of Biodegradable Polymer and Durable Polymer Drug-Eluting Stents in an All Comers Population (BIO-RESORT) trial aimed to compare at 3-year follow-up both health effects and costs of PCI with one of three new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease.
Methods: The randomised BIO-RESORT trial assessed in 3514 patients the ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer Orsiro sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and very-thin-strut Synergy everolimus-eluting (EES) stent versus the thin-strut durable polymer Resolute Integrity zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES).
