First-in-Man Trial of SiO2 Inert-Coated Bare Metal Stent System in Native Coronary Stenosis - The AXETIS FIM Trial -

摘要

Background: A novel bare metal stent with an SiO2 coating was developed to prevent excessive neointimal hyperplasia by inertization of the metallic stent surface. The efficacy of the device was demonstrated in a preclinical model. The aim of this first-in-man trial was to assess the safety and feasibility of the new device.
