The incidence of late stent thrombosis for patients treated with Custom NX in the study was zero percent. Hodgson continued, "The combination of more complex target lesions, concerns about late stent thrombosis, the launch of new faster, integrated IVUS and FFR technologies, and the growing awareness that angiography does not tell the whole story, has driven IVUS use dramatically higher in recent years. The panel also recommended a postmarket, single-arm registry, of at least 5,000 patients followed to a minimum of five years with a primary endpoint of very late stent thrombosis (reformation of a clot) and a secondary endpoint evaluating death and myocardial infarction (heart attack). |
