ABSTRACT: Background
The first-generation polymeric bioresorbable scaffolds resulted in higher than acceptable 3-year rates of device-related adverse outcomes.Aims
We aimed to assess the intermediate-term safety and performance of a novel ultrathin-strut sirolimus-eluting iron bioresorbable scaffold (IBS) in non-complex coronary lesions.Methods
The prospective, single-arm, open-label IBS first-in-human study enrolled 45 patients, each with a single de novo lesion. Enrolled patients were randomly assigned to 2 follow-up cohorts. Angiographic and imaging follow-up with intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were conducted at 6 and 24 months in cohort 1 (n=30) and at 12 and 36 months in cohort 2 (n=15). Clinical follow-up was conducted at 1, 6 and 12 mon
