Intravascular ultrasound results from the NEVO ResElution-I trial: a randomized, blinded comparison of sirolimus-eluting NEVO stents with paclitaxel-eluting TAXUS Liberté stents in de novo native coronary artery lesions.
Circ Cardiovasc Interv. 2011; (2): 146-54
The NEVO sirolimus-eluting stent (NEVO SES) is a novel cobalt-chromium stent combining sirolimus release from reservoirs with bioabsorbable polymer to reduce spatial and temporal polymer exposure. The aim of this study was to assess the arterial response to the NEVO SES in a randomized, blinded comparison versus the surface-coated TAXUS Liberte paclitaxel-eluting stent (TAXUS Liberté PES) in human native coronary lesions using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).
