Heart stent showdown: which device works best for blocked arteries?
NCT ID NCT04390672
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of stents (small mesh tubes) used to open blocked heart arteries in people with severe three-vessel coronary artery disease. About 1,550 participants will receive either the SUPRAFLEX Cruz or SYNERGY stent. The goal is to see which stent is safer and more effective at preventing death, stroke, heart attack, or the need for repeat procedures over one year.
