Elixir Medical has revealed details of its programme and activities during the 2017 meeting of the transcatheter cardiovascular therapeutics (TCT; 29 October–2 November, Denver, USA). It reports that as part of these activities, it will unveil “a game-changing metallic drug eluting stent platform”.
A press release for that concept, design, data from preclinical testing, and clinical programme for Elixir Medical’s DynamXTM stent will be presented, for the first time, at a signature evening symposium on 30 October (6–8pm). It adds that DynamX is a 71microns thin metallic drug-eluting stent designed to match the ease of use and acute performance of state-of-the-art drug-eluting stent. Unlike existing drug-eluting stents, however, DynamX is designed to allow the vessel to exhibit its normal pulsatile motion and adaptive remodelling capabilities.
Motasim Sirhan, founder, and CEO of Elixir Medical, says: “DynamX ushers a new era of transformation from the current metallic stents which cage the vessel into stents that allow pulsatile motion and adaptive remodelling, mimicking the normal vessel function of patients. Elixir continues its commitment to developing breakthrough adaptive remodelling technologies to better address patient needs around the world beyond the capabilities of today’s technologies.”
Also, Elixir will outline its fully bioresorbable scaffold programs and will present its latest trial results throughout TCT.
