Barcelona, 22 of January,2020. ANGIOLITE trial aims to compare the performance between the angiolite SES and an everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in patients with coronary artery disease. This trial is a prospective, randomised, multicentre trial, that compares the restenosis parameters of both stents in de novo coronary lesions.
ANGIOLITE trial 24-month outcomes:
In-stent Late Lumen Loss (LLL): angiolite, 0.04mm vs. EES, 0.08mm
Definite of probable stent thrombosis: angiolite, 1.0% vs. EES, 1.9%
Target Lesion Failure (TLF)*: angiolite, 7.1% vs. EES, 7.6%
* composite of cardiac death, target vessel-related MI or clinically-driven TLR
OCT subgroup:
Neo-intimal thickness: angiolite, 72.1μm vs. EES, 86.4 μm
The trial concludes with promising results demonstrating the non-inferiority in late lumen loss of angiolite vs. the gold standard EES. Efficacy and equivalence are confirmed with the great outcomes of the OCT group.

About angiolite
angiolite is a sirolimus-eluting coronary stent specially designed for symptomatic ischemic heart disease due to “de novo” stenotic and re-stenotic lesions located in arteries, as well as for occlusive disease due to acute myocardial infarction located in arteries.
