Heart stent study shows promise for blocked arteries
NCT ID NCT03809715
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at a device called Coroflex ISAR Neo, a stent used to open blocked heart arteries. Researchers wanted to see if it was safe and worked well. Over 3,500 people with coronary artery disease took part. The main goal was to see how many needed a repeat procedure within a year.

Who is studied
The investigator of each study site has the responsibility of screening all potential patients and selecting those who fulfil the inclusion criteria of this study protocol. Therefore, at each site a study with similar inclusion criteria cannot be conducted while the recruitment of this study is in progress. Screening will be performed during the physical examination to verify the "patient related enrolment criteria". The second part of the screening procedure will be completed during the diagnostic angiography to verify that the target lesion fulfils all "lesion related enrolment criteria".
