First-in-human evaluation of a novel ultrathin sirolimus-eluting iron bioresorbable scaffold: 3-year outcomes of the IBS-FIM trial

EuroInterventionPublished First-in-human single-arm study

Authors' conclusion

In this first-in-human experience, an ultrathin IBS was safe and effective for the treatment of de novo non-complex coronary lesions up to 3-year follow-up.
