Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier Curves and Survival Table for the End Point of TLR to 1,080 Days
In patients treated with the Cypher stent (Cordis), freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR) remains significantly better than vascular brachytherapy throughout the 3-year follow-up period (log-rank p = 0.018).

Figure 2 Kaplan-Meier Curves and Survival Table for the End Point of TVR to 1,080 Days
In patients treated with the Cypher stent (Cordis), freedom from target vessel revascularization (TVR) remains significantly better than vascular brachytherapy throughout the 3-year follow-up period (log-rank p = 0.022).

Figure 3 Kaplan-Meier Curves and Survival Table for the End Point of TVF to 1,080 Days
In patients treated with the Cypher stent (Cordis), the difference in freedom from target lesion revascularization from vascular brachytherapy is attenuated throughout the 3-year follow-up period (log-rank p = 0.087). TVF = target vessel failure.

Figure 4 Kaplan-Meier Curves and Survival Table for the End Point of MACE to 1,080 Days
In patients treated with the Cypher stent (Cordis), the difference in major adverse cardiac events (MACE) from vascular brachytherapy is attenuated throughout the 3-year follow-up period (log-rank p = 0.186)
