New stent shows promise in Real-World heart patients
NCT ID NCT05677711
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study followed 204 people with coronary artery disease who received the Ultimaster stent, a thin mesh tube coated with a drug that slowly releases to prevent arteries from clogging again. The stent's coating dissolves over 3-4 months. Researchers tracked safety and effectiveness over one year, looking at heart-related deaths, heart attacks, and the need for repeat procedures. The goal was to see how well the stent works in everyday practice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Ultimaster sirolimus-eluting coronary stent (a mesh tube coated with a drug that prevents artery re-blockage)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could confirm that the Ultimaster stent is a safe and effective option for treating blocked heart arteries in a wide range of patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. The stent still carries risks like blood clots or artery re-narrowing.
