The innovative hybrid Cobalt-Chromium Abluminal Biodegradable Polymer DES

BioMatrix™ Alpha presents the best in class stent platform design with unique pro-healing coating from the pioneer in abluminal biodegradable technology3.

It combines the proven safety of a DES with an abluminal biodegradable polymer, the proven efficacy of BA9™ and an innovative
cobalt-chromium stent platform design.
 
 

Abluminal coating absorbed after 6 to 9 months4
No drug carrier or drug inside the stent

  • Early BMS-like endothelial coverage2
  • More targeted drug release
  • Reduced systemic exposure

 

 

BA9™ Designed Specifically for Coronary Stent Application

 
 
 
  • Unique drug and proprietary of Biosensors International Group, Ltd.
  • Designed for properties that would support healing and re-endothelialization
  • Chemical characteristics allow:
       - delivered with synchronous absorption of proprietary PLA polymer
       - with no loss to the systemic system.

 

 


Alpha by Design best in class performance vs other stents2
