Treatment of Coronary In-Stent Restenosis with a Paclitaxel-Coated Balloon Catheter

Abstract: Treatment of coronary in-stent restenosis with paclitaxel-coated balloon catheters significantly reduced the incidence of restenosis. These data suggest that the inhibition of restenosis by local drug delivery may not require stent implantation and sustained drug release at the site of injury. (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00106587 [ClinicalTrials.gov].).

“…Specifically, DCB compared to DES show a significant benefit in the treatment of ISR,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and current guidelines recommend the use of DCB for patients with coronary ISR (class I, level of evidence A) 13. However, there are other potential indications such as coronary small vessel disease and bifurcation lesions 14, 15.…”

“…PTX has been administered with a great success in the treatment of in-stent restenosis [1][2][3]. Being biodegradable and biocompatible, PLGA is widely used for delivery of PTX and other drugs coated on stents [1,[4][5][6].…”

“…An angiographic contrast medium enriched with paclitaxel was found to be associated with an inhibition of neointimal proliferation four weeks after the intervention (30,31). Another interesting approach derives from the possibility of coating with antiproliferative drugs the balloons for angioplasty (32)(33)(34).…”
