Comparison of Biodegradable and Permanent Polymer Stents in PCI: Efficacy and Safety After 3 Years

The ISAR-TEST-4 study evaluates the three-year efficacy and safety of biodegradable polymer stents against permanent polymer stents, and also compares everolimus-eluting stents (EES) with sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) in real-world patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This randomized clinical trial's endpoint includes composite measures of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization (TLR) at three years. Results indicate that biodegradable polymer and permanent polymer drug-eluting stents (DES), as well as EES and SES, demonstrate comparable clinical efficacy and safety profiles.
