ith coronary de novo lesions) allowed to verify, in a single trial, the safety and efficacy of the two novel drug-eluting stent formulations." He added that "Another important point is that most previous comparative trials between Sirolimus & Paclitaxel used stents with two different platforms and polymers." "In the PAINT -- which used the same metal platform and coating for both active stents -- the effects of Sirolimus and Paclitaxel could be compared in a more direct way, since the only difference between the stents was the drug itself," he explains.

Dr Atul Abhyankar, Medical Director- Sahajanand's Medical Technologies, shared the enthusiasm. "The results of the PAINT trial truly add to the interventional community learning about DESs, it clearly proves that the biodegradable polymer used by SMT is effective and safe vehicle for DES and seems to work efficiently irrespective of the type of drugs. Both drugs (Paclitaxel & Sirolimus) were effective in reducing restenosis on the same vehicle and platform. So you have a luxury of choice of drug based on your own assessment."

Mr. Dhirajlal Kotadia, the Founder and Chairman of SMT; emphasized the company's commitment towards further intensifying its clinical research initiatives and continue to deliver evidence-based treatments to all deserving patients around the world.

The Infinnium - CE mark approved, stent system utilizes paclitaxel, which has been shown to reduce tissue proliferation in the coronary vessels following stent implantation, and is based upon the easily deliverable, thinnest strut (0.0032") Matrix coronary stent platform.
