First-in-Man 1-Year Clinical Outcomes of the Catania Coronary Stent System With Nanothin Polyzene-F in De Novo Native Coronary Artery Lesions: The Atlanta (Assessment of The Latest Non-Thrombogenic Angioplasty stent) Trial
Objectives: This study sought to assess safety and efficacy of implantation of the Catania Coronary Stent System with Nanothin Polyzene-F (CeloNova BioSciences, Newnan, Georgia) in human coronary arteries with clinical data and comprehensive intracoronary imaging. Background: Novel approaches to modify stents (e.g., bioactive agents, coatings) have been developed to address the limitations of bare-metal and drug-eluting stents (e.g., restenosis, target lesion revascularization [TLR], late thrombosis).
Methods: This first-in-man study using the Catania stent is a prospective, single center, nonrandomized, single-arm study of 55 patients with symptomatic ischemic heart disease with de novo, obstructive lesions of native coronary arteries ...
