Abstract
AIMS: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with worse outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). How CKD influences the benefit-risk balance of drug-eluting stents (DES) versus bare-metal stents (BMS) is less known. METHODS AND RESULTS: In the multicentre BASKET-PROVE trial, 2314 patients in need of large coronary stenting (≥3.0mm) were randomised 2:1 to DES or BMS. In an a priori planned secondary analysis, outcomes were evaluated according to renal function defined by estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR; normal: eGFR≥60ml/min/1.73m(2); CKD: eGFR
