Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Context: Sirolimus-eluting stents and paclitaxel-eluting stents, as compared with bare-metal stents, reduce the risk of restenosis. It is unclear whether there are differences in safety and efficacy between the two types of drug-eluting stents.

Objective: To determine differences in safety and efficacy between sirolimus and paclitaxel eluting stents.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Design: Randomized controlled, observer-blind trial comparing sirolimus-eluting stents with paclitaxel-eluting stents

Patients: 1012 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. The two groups had similar baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics.
