Nitinol Stents With Polymer-Free Paclitaxel Coating for Lesions in the Superficial Femoral and Popliteal Arteries Above the Knee: Twelve-Month Safety and Effectiveness Results From the Zilver PTX Single-Arm Clinical Study:

TL;DR: The results indicate that the Zilver PTX drug-eluting stent is safe for treatment of patients with de novo and restenotic lesions of the above-the-knee femoropopliteal segment and the overall anatomical and clinical effectiveness results suggest that thisStent is a promising endovascular therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymer-free paclitaxel-coated Zilver PTX Stents--evaluation of pharmacokinetics and comparative safety in porcine arteries.

TL;DR: The Zilver PTX stent appears to be safe, achieves sustained paclitaxel levels in the artery wall, and shows complete vessel healing comparable to bare metal stents within 3 months.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biologic Drug Effect and Particulate Embolization of Drug-Eluting Stents versus Drug-Coated Balloons in Healthy Swine Femoropopliteal Arteries

TL;DR: In the treated arteries, irrespective of preceding DCB treatment or PTA, DES treatment showed maximum drug effects vs DCB alone or in combination with BMS placement, and there was no detrimental toxic effect in DCB-treated iliofemoral arteries beforeDES treatment compared with PTA before DES treatment.
