OrbusNeich said today that it launched the latest version of its dual-therapy stent, the Combo Plus, featuring an antibody biological coating designed to promote vessel healing in patients with complex coronary artery disease.
After the stent is implanted, the biological coating captures endothelial progenitor cells and kicks off formation of an endothelial layer. A coating of bioabsorbable polymer elutes sirolimus to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia, or the growth and movement of vascular smooth muscle cells in the innermost layer of the artery. The accelerated healing process may reduce adverse events and lead to a quicker return of functionality in patients with coronary stenosis, according to the Hong Kong-based company.
