"Pairing a bioengineered stent with a drug-eluting balloon could solve two problems" - Chris Kaiser
Date: December 4, 2008
Client: OrbusNeich
Summary: The Genous Bio-engineered R stent, which captures a patient's endothelial progenitor cells to accelerate the natural healing process, has been shown to reduce late and very late thrombosis compared with drug-eluting stents (DES). The Genous stent, however, has not bested its DES counterparts in reducing in-stent restenosis. A trial in development that will use a drug-eluting balloon to dilate the artery, in combination with deployment of the Genous stent, hopes to fill in the gaps.
