Clinically proven solution

Clinical outcomes from multiple studies including randomized controlled trials like BIOLUX RCT, ISAR-DESIRE 4 and PEBSI show high efficacy and safety for both in-stent restenosis and de novo lesions.4-9

More than 4,500 patients treated in clinical studies 10

Pantera™ Lux™ DCB has proven efficacy and safety in multiple clinical trials investigating coronary drug-coated balloons for various implant-free treatment options.5-8; 11-15

DCB is confirmed as a viable treatment option for ISR with the advantage of avoiding an additional stent layer.8-9

REVELATION (n=120) 13

The treatment with Pantera™ Lux™ DCB may represent a valuable alternative strategy in selected STEMId patients undergoing primary PCI.13

Lux™ coating technology for rapid drug absorption3

The Lux™ coating technology blends paclitaxel with BTHC, a rapidly metabolized, safe and biocompatible excipient, thus improving bioavailability at the target site.2-3

Prolonged tissue retention at the target site2-3

Following one application of the Pantera™ Lux™ DCB, paclitaxel can be readily detected in the treated region beyond 7 days in animal tissue.2-3
