Randomized comparison between 3-month Cre8 DES vs. 1-month Vision/Multilink8 BMS neointimal coverage assessed by OCT evaluation: the DEMONSTRATE study

摘要

It has been hypothesized that incomplete endothelialization and delayed vascular healing may trigger stent thrombosis events after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. We aimed to demonstrate non-inferiority in terms of neointimal coverage of novel Cre8 DES at 3 months, compared to Vision/Multilink8 Bare Metal Stent (BMS) at 1month.
