The introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) to interventional cardiology practice has resulted in a significant improvement in the long-term efficacy of percutaneous coronary interventions. DES successfully combine mechanical benefits of bare-metal stents and stabilizing the lumen, with direct delivery and the controlled elution of a pharmacologic agent to the injured vessel wall to suppress further neointimal proliferation. The dramatic reduction in restenosis has resulted in the implementation of DES in clinical practice, and has rapidly expanded the whole spectrum of successfully treatable coronary conditions, particularly in high-risk patients and complex lesions. In this review the authors present current data on DES. Currently, two types of DES are available in the USA: sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) CYPHER™ (Cordis Corp., FL, USA) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES) TAXUS™(Boston Scientific, MA, USA), and many more are on the way to approval. In addition to sirolimus and paclitaxel, several other drugs have been successfully used in DES. Everolimus and ABT-578 are both analogs of sirolimus that also have immunosuppressive and antiproliferative properties. Another approach in the development of DES is to use drugs that can accelerate re-endothelialization and restore normal endothelial function following vascular injury. Recent advances in vascular gene transfer have also demonstrated potential new treatment modalities for cardiovascular disease, particularly in the treatment of vascular restenosis.
