Shots:
- The (LIFE-BTK) trial evaluates the safety & efficacy of the Esprit BTK Everolimus Eluting Resorbable Scaffold System (Esprit BTK) vs Balloon Angioplasty (SoC) in patients (n=261) with CLTI. The trial results were presented at the TCT Conference 2023 & was published in the New England Journal of Medicine
- As per the results, Esprit BTK depicted higher independence from the primary efficacious clinical events vs SoC (74.5 vs 43.7%) along with an improved reduction in vessel re-narrowing (25.8%) & sustained openness of the vessels (14.2%)
