Clinical outcomes of drug-coated balloon vs. second-generation drug-eluting stent for coronary in-stent restenosis
DCBs were associated with lower rates of the primary end point all-cause death or myocardial infarction, as well as secondary end points all-cause death and bleeding compared with second-generation DES. These findings suggest that DCBs may represent a safe and effective alternative to DES in selected patient populations.
