Stellarex
Drug-coated 0.035" Angioplasty Balloons
Stellarex drug-coated balloon featuring EnduraCoat technology comprising hybrid coating, Polyethylene glycol (PEG) excipient and 2µg/mm² low drug dose. Proven safety and efficacy in SFA.
Drug-coated balloon, featuring EnduraCoat Technology
Provides top-tier patency to treat common-to-complex lesions with a low drug dose¹,³
Uniquely offers a critical balance of hybrid paclitaxel and durable excipient¹
Clinical image gallery
- Stellarex DCB has shown a consistent lack of statistical difference in mortality compared with PTA at each annual follow-up through 4 years across two randomized controlled trials⁹,¹⁷.
- Stellarex robust clinical program for ATK and BTK
- Top-tier patency and safety with the lowest effective drug dose in all SFA patients – common to complex*†
- Top-tier patency and safety with the lowest effective drug dose in all SFA patients – common to complex*†
Features
Effective low drug dose matters
Dose excess and particulate downstream possibly results in a delay of wound healing, loss of microcirculation and creation of aneurysms¹⁰⁻¹³. Stellarex is the only low dose DCB with a statistically significant treatment effect in femoropopliteal lesions².
Proven performance in calcium
PEG forms strong ionic bonds with hydroxyl apatite (HAp), the primary component of calcified atherosclerotic lesions¹⁴. PEG’s affinity for HAp may result in limited PTX washout in the presence of calcium.
Sustained tissue Residency
Hybrid paclitaxel offers prompt drug transfer and sustained tissue residency through 28 day restenotic window¹⁵⁻¹⁶.
