Balloon vs stent: new hope for heart patients?
NCT ID NCT04859985
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study compares two treatments for coronary artery disease: a drug-coated balloon (Selution DEB) and a drug-eluting stent (DES). About 3,300 participants with blocked heart arteries will be randomly assigned to one of the two procedures. The goal is to see which approach better prevents heart-related death, heart attacks, or the need for repeat procedures over 1 to 5 years.
