First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two ways to treat blocked heart arteries in people aged 18 to 68. One uses a drug-coated balloon, and the other uses a temporary scaffold. The goal is to see which approach works better over time, with fewer heart problems or need for repeat procedures. About 2,256 participants will be followed for up to 5 years.
