October 10, 2023 — Elixir Medical, a developer of innovative cardiovascular technologies, announced it will present primary endpoint and 6-month data from its DESyne BDS Plus Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT), a prospective, multicenter, single-blind study, as part of The Innovation Program at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) conference in San Francisco. The data compare DESyne BDS Plus, the world’s first triple drug-eluting stent with local anticoagulation delivery technology using two anticoagulants (rivaroxaban and argatroban) and an anti-proliferative mTOR inhibitor (sirolimus) to a second-generation durable polymer DES.
“Stent thrombosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), though rare, is a severe complication with death or heart attack risk of up to 50% after the event. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has played an integral role in keeping stent thrombosis rates low, but requires patient compliance for a minimum of six months and is associated with an increased risk of major bleeding,” said Motasim Sirhan, CEO of Elixir Medical. “DESyne BDS Plus with local anticoagulation delivery technology was designed to help mitigate the variable of drug compliance and to simplify the tradeoff decision of balancing the ischemic and bleeding risk. We are pleased to share the exciting findings from the first trial of DESyne BDS Plus as our team continues to innovate in the PCI space with our multiple platforms of disruptive technologies.”
The DESyne BDS Plus RCT includes 202 patients across 14 sites in Europe, New Zealand and Brazil. An imaging subset of 60 patients had angiographic and optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessment completed at six months. Data collection will continue through three years.
The data will be presented in the session “TCT Innovation V: Innovation in Coronary Disease Diagnosis and Therapies” on October 25th from 8-9:30 AM PDT in the Innovation & Clinical Science Theater, Hall B at the Moscone Center.
Elixir Medical is also hosting the scientific symposium, “Innovation for PCI: Improved outcomes require disruption” featuring a panel of speakers including Robert W. Yeh, M.D., Mirvat Alasnag, M.D, Ignacio Cruz-Gonzalez, M.D., Ph.D., Roxana Mehran, M.D. and Stefan Verheye, M.D., Ph.D.
The Elixir team will also exhibit at booth 115.
