The Amaranth FORTITUDE™ is the company’s lead product – a coronary bioresorbable scaffold with unprecedented mechanical properties, notably:
High radial strength
Intrinsic flexibility for significant conformability of the vessel contour
Excellent deliverability
Minimal recoil
Prolonged mechanical integrity and stability
The FORTITUDE™ scaffold affords the strength of metal stents to assist the artery during the remodeling process following an interventional procedure, yet FORTITUDE™ gradually disappears once the vessel is healed. Leveraging this predictable degradation profile, FORTITUDE™ is designed to provide the appropriate duration of support, without leaving behind a permanent implant with inherent clinical limitations.
