HONG KONG, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Data from multiple clinical trials of the world's first pro-healing stent, OrbusNeich's Genous Bio-engineered R stent, and preclinical data from Combo Bio-engineered Sirolimus Eluting Stent will be presented next week at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics symposium, TCT 2009, in San Francisco.
In addition, de Winter and his colleagues will present a poster titled "Patients with diabetes mellitus in the worldwide e-HEALING registry have a low target lesion revascularization rate at 12-month follow-up." The poster can be reviewed from 8 a.m. PDT - 10 p.m. PDT on Sept. 22 in Hall D.
Juan F Granada, M.D., medical director of the Skirball Center for Cardiovascular Research and assistant professor at Columbia University, New York, will present preclinical data of OrbusNeich's Combo Bio-engineered Sirolimus Eluting Stent, which is designed to combine the pro-healing technology used in OrbusNeich's Genous Bio-engineered R stent for rapid endothelial coverage and improved functionality with abluminal sirolimus sustained drug elution for the control of neointimal proliferation. The oral presentation titled "The OrbusNeich EPC-Coated Bioabsorbable Polymer Sirolimus-Eluting Stent Program" will take place at 2:31 p.m. PDT on Sept. 22 in room 104.
OrbusNeich's Genous Bio-engineered R stent has been commercially available in over 60 countries since 2005. The Genous stent has been proven as a safe, effective alternative to drug-eluting stents and is supported by data from more than 5,000 patients in company-sponsored clinical studies. There is a growing body of evidence from multiple clinical studies that the Genous stent is effective for patients who are non-responsive to or cannot tolerate long-term dual antiplatelet therapy.
Editor's Notes: OrbusNeich will display the Genous Bio-engineered R stent and other products at booth No. 330 at TCT 2009. Product images are available on request.
