Zilver Stent Self-expanding stent Gold markers at ends Paclitaxel coating without polymer or binder <5 mm thickness 3mcg/mm2
Zilver PTX Trial Prospective, multi-center randomized trial PTA vs Zilver paclitaxel coated stent For PTA failure, second randomization between Zilver stent vs BMS
De novo or restenotic lesions without previous stent > 50% stenosis of SFA or proximal popliteal Rutherford II or greater
Zilver PTX trial Primary Endpoint: 12 month patency by Duplex USG 12 month event free survival Follow-up USG 6, and 12 months, then annually X-ray of stent 1, 3 and 5 years
Zilver PTX PTA Alone Primary Patency 74.8% (2 years) 32.8% (One year) Event Free Survival 86.6%
PTA Failure Group Zilver PTX BMS Primary Patency 81.2% 62.7%
Summary Drug eluting stents for intervention of the lower extremities significantly reduced the need for repeat intervention and icreased primary patency out to two years.
