Frequently asked questions about AGENT DCB, PTCA balloon catheter

What is AGENT DCB used for?

AGENT DCB is a paclitaxel-coated percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) balloon catheter used for the treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR), a condition where a previously placed coronary stent becomes narrowed again. It is currently being investigated in a Phase 3 clinical trial for this indication.

Who makes AGENT DCB?

AGENT DCB is developed by Boston Scientific Corporation, a medical device company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol BSX. The company is conducting a Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the device for the treatment of in-stent restenosis.

What phase is AGENT DCB in?

AGENT DCB is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational device and has not been approved by the FDA. The ongoing Phase 3 trial is active but not recruiting participants, with a planned enrollment of 600 subjects.

What clinical trials is AGENT DCB in?

AGENT DCB is being evaluated in a single Phase 3 clinical trial registered as NCT04647253. The trial, titled 'A Clinical Trial to Assess the Agent Paclitaxel Coated PTCA Balloon Catheter for the Treatment of Subjects With In-Stent Restenosis (ISR),' is active but not recruiting and is being conducted in the United States.

Is AGENT DCB the same as a paclitaxel-coated balloon?

Yes, AGENT DCB is a paclitaxel-coated PTCA balloon catheter. The drug coating is paclitaxel, which is released locally to the vessel wall during angioplasty. The device is specifically designed to treat in-stent restenosis, where a stent has become blocked again.
