Secondary end point was following with P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after the first 3 months compared with aspirin. It included 1695 patients treated with sirolimus eluting Ultimaster receiving 3-month DAPT. After the...

Drug release and polymer degradation within four months facilitate endothelization and would allow a shorter DAPT. Presented during the scientific sessions of TCT 2019, this study included 2009 high...

This study showed that using the everolimus eluting stent with bioabsorbable polymer Synergy followed by 4 months of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to treat left main stenosis (LMS) was safe and effective, compared against using the everolimus eluting stent with permanent polymer Xience followed by the conventional 12 months DAPT. This study...
