ABSTRACT: Background
Bioresorbable scaffolds have been developed to overcome the limitations of drug-eluting stents and to reduce long-term adverse events.Aims
We aimed to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of a sirolimus-eluting resorbable magnesium scaffold to ensure its safe rollout into clinical routine.Methods
BIOSOLVE-IV is a prospective, international, multicentre registry including more than 100 centres in Europe, Asia, and Asia-Pacific. Enrolment started directly after the commercialisation of the device. Follow-up assessments are scheduled at 6 and 12 months, and annually for up to 5 years; we herein report the 24-month outcomes.Results
