The primary endpoint of the study was in-stent late lumen loss at nine months. The secondary endpoints included major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at one year defined as the composite of cardiac death, ischaemia-driven target lesion revascularisation (TLR) and target vessel myocardial infarction (MI). Procedural success was 100%. Angiographic late lumen loss was 0.12+/-0.19 mm and 0.05+/-0.22 mm at four and nine months respectively. At one-year clinical follow-up, the composite MACE was 10% with one patient who died from cardiac death and two patients who had ischaemia-driven target lesion revascularisation. There was no report of MI or stent thrombosis UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.4244/EIJV8I9A155 ER -
