POLish Bifurcation Optimal treatment Strategy randomized Study (POLBOSS) – Interim analysis
Author: Robert J. Gil, MD, PhD, Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, Invasive Cardiology Dept., Central Hospital of the Internal Affairs Ministry, Warsaw, Poland
CONCLUSION
Interim analysis has showed that dedicated paclitaxel eluting bifurcation stent provides satisfactory results which seem to demonstrate equivalence in hard end points (death, MI, strokes). The completion of the POLBOS Study will show possible differences (or equivalence) of secondary end-points.
