mplex than the patients treated with the bare metal stent.

"The results from ARTS II are excellent for the CYPHER(R) Stent in very complex patients. The ARTS I and II Studies were designed to provide valuable information to help physicians evaluate how to best improve clinical outcomes and increase the quality-of-life of patients with multivessel disease," said David E. Kandzari, M.D., F.A.C.C., F.S.C.A.I., Chief Medical Officer, Cordis Corporation. "Their results add to the large body of existing evidence assessing the performance of the CYPHER(R) Stent in a wide range of patient populations."

In the United States, the CYPHER(R) Stent is indicated for de novo lesions less than 30 mm in length in native coronary arteries between 2.5 mm and 3.5 mm in diameter. It does not have an approved indication for patients with multivessel disease, diabetes or blockages located at a bifurcation.

The ARTS II Study is sponsored by Cordis Corporation.

About the CYPHER(R) Stent

The CYPHER(R) Stent has been chosen by cardiologists worldwide to treat approximately three million patients with coronary artery disease. The safety and efficacy of the device is supported by a robust clinical trial program that includes more than 70 studies that examine the performance of the CYPHER(R) Stent in a broad range of patients.

Developed and manufactured by Cordis Corporation, the CYPHER(R) Stent is currently available in more than 80 countries and has the broadest clinical experience and longest-term clinical follow-up of any drug-eluting stent. The next version of sirolimus-eluting stent, the CYPHER SELECT(TM) Sirolimus- eluting Coronary Stent, was launched in Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Canada in 2003. The CYPHER SELECT(TM) Plus Stent, the third version of a sirolimus-eluting coronary stent, received CE Mark in 2006 and is currently available in many markets outside the United States.
