PACLITAXEL SAFETY

IN.PACT Admiral Drug-Coated Balloon

Dedicated to transparency 

There have been concerns surrounding the safety of paclitaxel in therapies to treat peripheral artery disease (PAD). Medtronic is dedicated to data transparency and confident in the safety and effectiveness of our IN.PACT™ Admiral™ drug-coated balloon.

To confirm the safety of our IN.PACT Admiral DCB, an independent, patient-level analysis was conducted by the Baim Institute for Clinical Research, formerly HCRI, on all subjects from all of our studies treated with IN.PACT Admiral DCB. This analysis included 1,980 patients who were enrolled across our IN.PACT clinical programs.

The results from the independent, patient-level analysis found NO correlation between paclitaxel dose and mortality.1
