Long-term follow-up of CENTURY II: consistent and sustained safety at 1 year and 5 years
Patient numbers are from the per-protocol analysis at baseline.
CENTURY II included pre-specified assessment of complex subgroups
Bifurcation: clinical evidence from CENTURY II
- There were no significant differences in baseline patient characteristics or bifurcation lesion characteristics between the two groups
- TLF up to 5 years was 7.4% with Ultimaster, compared with 11.1% with Xience (p=0.37)
- Cardiac death at 5-year follow up was significantly lower in the Ultimaster group than in the Xience group (0.0% vs 5.1%; p=0.03)
TLF, target lesion failure.

Multivessel disease: clinical evidence from CENTURY II
- There were no significant differences in baseline patient characteristics, lesion characteristics, or procedural characteristics between the two groups
- 69.8% of procedures that used Ultimaster were performed using transradial access, and the overall procedure success rate was 97.8%
- At 5 years, there was a trend towards better clinical outcomes with Ultimaster than with Xience (statistical significance not met)
- Any death: 9.3% vs 10.8% (p=0.60)
- Any MI: 3.1% vs 5.6% (p=0.19)
- Stent thrombosis: 0.9% vs 1.7% (p=0.43)

- In general, clinical outcomes at 2 years were numerically better with Ultimaster than with Xience
- Any death: 1.5% vs 2.9% (p=0.48)
