Popis: AIMS We performed a multicenter, randomized controlled trial to determine the noninferiority of a novel biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stent (BP-DES), the EXCEL 2 stent, to the first-generation BP-DES, the EXCEL stent. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients (n = 419) scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were randomized to receive either the EXCEL 2 stent (n = 208) or the EXCEL stent (n = 211) from 15 Chinese centers. At 9 months, primary endpoint in-stent late loss (LL) difference was -0.03 mm (95% confidence interval: -0.09 mm to 0.04 mm) between the EXCEL 2 group (0.14 ± 0.26 mm) and the EXCEL group (0.16 ± 0.36 mm), demonstrating the noninferiority of EXCEL 2 to EXCEL in terms of in-stent LL (P for noninferiority
