Introduction
CORONARY STENTS – CURRENT AND FUTURE PLAYERS
2 Introduction
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a global public health and socioeconomic problem that affects
millions of lives each year. Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), such as stenting and
angioplasty, have been widely adopted worldwide to treat a range of CAD indications. The
coronary stent market is a dynamic and competitive one that is saturated with numerous players
trying to gain share by developing innovative technologies. Coronary stents, which include bare
metal, drug-eluting, covered, and bioabsorbable stents (BAS), can be used for a range of
indications in CAD, including de novo stenosis, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (heart attack),
bifurcation lesions, SVD, saphenous vein grafts (SVGs), left main coronary artery disease
(LMCAD) and chronic total occlusions (CTOs).
Among the different types of stents, drug-eluting stents (DES) are considered to be the gold
standard of treatment and will continue to dominate the global coronary stents market in the future.
Since the development of the first generation of DES, manufacturers have focused on optimizing
and developing innovative low-profile platforms, stent coatings, drug-eluting components, and
materials. These innovations have improved the deliverability, performance, and safety profile of
stents, leading to better outcomes and reducing the risk of restenosis and complications such as
chronic inflammation and late stent thrombosis. Emerging stent technologies, such as DES with
biodegradable polymer/polymer-free coatings and BAS, are viable alternatives to and can address
the complications associated with the contemporary stents. BAS are a breakthrough technology
that can provide transient support to the vessel and completely degrade over time.
This report focuses on the global coronary stents market for treating CAD. The global coronary
stents market is determined for the 10 countries covered in the report, which are the US, France,
Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Japan, Brazil, China, and India. This report identifies the unmet
needs in the market for treating CAD that are associated with current stent technologies, provides
an understanding of physicians’ perceptions and decision-making process in using different types
of stents, and evaluates the adoption of the different types of coronary stents in the future. From
GlobalData’s analysis, it is evident that DES currently have and will continue to command the
largest share in the global coronary stents market. The widespread adoption of DES can be
attributed to improved outcomes, the availability of long-term clinical evidence, and the reduced
need for repeat intervention, thereby incurring cost savings for healthcare providers. In addition, the
current adoption of emerging stent technologies, such as the next generation of DES and BAS, is
Drug-eluting stents are considered to be the gold standard of treatment and will continue to dominate the global coronary stents market in the future.

slow. BAS, such as the Absorb BVS and DESolve, have received only CE Mark approval and are
available only in selected markets. Large-scale, long-term cost-effectiveness studies need to be
conducted to demonstrate their clinical efficacy, so that these innovative technologies can be
integrated appropriately into the existing reimbursement systems.
2.1 Catalyst
Stent technology has revolutionized the field of interventional cardiology such that coronary
stenting has become the standard of care for patients with CAD. Modern developments in PCI
have led to a paradigm shift in the treatment of CAD towards stenting. Among the coronary stents,
DES dominate the coronary stents market worldwide, and physicians have extensive clinical
experience using these devices. Unlike bare metal stents (BMS) and covered stents (CS), DES
elute an antiproliferative agent, which can significantly reduce restenosis and target lesion
revascularization (TLR) rates.
Vascular stent technology has evolved over the years and is used in clinical practice for different
types of lesions/indications, such as de novo stenosis, bifurcation lesions, and small-vessel
disease (SVD). Although stent technologies such as DES have reduced the risk of restenosis and
the need for repeat revascularization, and also provide mechanical support to the vessel,
complications such as late and very late stent thrombosis, chronic inflammation, and dependency
on prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy reiterate the need for new treatment modalities. In addition,
the presence of polymer coatings on DES can lead to chronic inflammation and hypersensitivity
reactions, resulting in poor clinical outcomes and endangering patient safety. The next generation
of coronary stents is being developed with innovative stent structures, thinner struts, more effective
antiproliferative drugs, durable metal alloys, biodegradable polymer coatings, bioactive and
polymer-free coatings, and fully-absorbable stent platforms. BAS offer several benefits, including
eliminating the need for stent-in-stent procedures, thereby potentially reducing the need for
prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy, enhanced vessel healing, and improving the feasibility of future
interventions.
As more long-term clinical data demonstrating the superior therapeutic benefits of BAS and
reimbursement become available, the adoption of BAS by the medical community will increase
