Summary

This study compares two types of drug-coated balloons used to open blocked heart arteries, specifically at branch points (bifurcations). About 250 adults with coronary artery disease will receive either a sirolimus-coated or a paclitaxel-coated balloon. The goal is to see if the sirolimus balloon works as well as the standard paclitaxel balloon in keeping arteries open after 9 months.
