About the SPIRIT Family of Trials

SPIRIT FIRST is a randomized trial comparing the XIENCE V Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System with the MULTI-LINK VISION metallic stent system. SPIRIT II was a randomized clinical trial evaluating XIENCE V versus TAXUS in Europe and Asia Pacific. Professor Patrick Serruys of Rotterdam is the principal investigator in SPIRIT FIRST and SPIRIT II.

SPIRIT III is a large-scale randomized pivotal clinical trial comparing XIENCE V to TAXUS in the United States and Japan. SPIRIT IV is a randomized trial currently enrolling patients and will evaluate the safety and efficacy of XIENCE V for the treatment of coronary artery disease in a more complex patient population in the United States. Professor Gregg Stone of Medical Center, N.Y., is the principal investigator in SPIRIT III and SPIRIT IV.

SPIRIT V is an international clinical trial currently enrolling patients that will provide additional data on clinical experience with XIENCE V at 100 clinical sites throughout Europe, Asia, Canada and Latin America.

SPIRIT WOMEN is the world's first drug-eluting stent trial to study only women and will evaluate the characteristics of women undergoing stent implantation as well as the performance of XIENCE V in those patients in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Canada and Latin America.
