Prison II Randomised Trial of Sirolimus-Eluting and Bare Metal Stents in Patients with CTO (Presented at TCT 2005 Suttorp and Laarmen, Nieuwegein and Amsterdam)
MY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST ARE I have accepted support for the purpose of attending professional educational meetings from Boston Scientific, Cordis, Medtronic and Guidant I am in receipt of research funding from Boston Scientific
Background • Angiographic restenosis rates with bare metal stents in CTO : • 22% Prison I (POBA 33%) • 32% SICCO (POBA 74%)
Methods • Single blind RCT, two centres • Randomised after crossing a CTO > 2 weeks old • Bx velocity vs. Cypher (n=200) • Primary end point • Binary Angiographic Restenosis at 6 months • Secondary end points • Clinical - MACE, TVF • Angiographic - MLD, late loss, % stenosis
Results • Baseline characteristics well matched: • Mean age 59 years • Diabetics 13% • Single vessel disease 49% • Mean stent length 30 mm
ResultsBinary angiographic restenosis 73% 85% 41 36 % 11 7
ResultsSecondary End Points • Angiographic • Late loss +0.64 vs. -0.07 mm (p<0.001) • % stenosis 53.3% vs. 31.9% (p<0.001) • Clinical • MACE 20% vs. 4% • TLR 19% vs. 4% • Stent thrombosis 0% vs. 2%
Conclusions • First RCT showing that DES reduce restenosis in CTO • Is CTO another indication for DES?
ISAR TEST Randomised comparison of a polymer free sirolimus coated stent vs. polymer based paclitaxel coated stent (Taxus) Presented at TCT 2005 Kastrati et al. Munich
Background Polymers may induce chronic inflammatory reaction causing: • delayed or incomplete re- endothelialization • stent thrombosis • restenosis
Methods • Prospective RCT comparing a polymer-free sirolimus stent with the polymer-based paclitaxel (!) stent (Taxus Express2) • n =450 • Primary end point: in-stent late loss at 6 months - Powered to determine non-inferiority (not equivalence) with a margin of difference in late loss of 0.13 mm • Secondary end points: BAR & TLR at 6 months
Stent Coating Machine and Stent with Microporous Surface before after
Baseline Characteristics • Well matched • 43% unstable • Mean lesion length 12.8 mm • Mean vessel diameter 2.7 mm • 1.1 stents per case
P = 0.98 P = 0.09 mm mm (in-stent) (in-segment) Results: Late Lumen Loss Polymer-Free Sirolimus Stent Polymer-Based Paclitaxel Stent
Angiographic and ClinicalRestenosis Incidence, % Incidence, % P = 1 P = 0.73 (TLR) Polymer-Free Sirolimus Stent Polymer-Based Paclitaxel Stent
Conclusion • The polymer-free sirolimus-eluting stent has an anti-restenotic effect that is not inferior to that of polymer-based paclitaxel-eluting stent.
Interpretation • Early evidence of angiographic efficacy of non polymer ‘DIY’ sirolimus eluting stent • Clinical efficacy? • How important is the polymer ? • Results attributable to lack of polymer or different drug?
ENDEAVOR III Prospective randomized comparison of Endeavor zotarolimus-eluting stent with Cypher sirolimus-eluting stent (Presented at TCT 2005 PIs David E. Kandzariand Martin B. Leon)
ENDEAVOR III Hypothesis: Treatment with the Endeavor zotarolimus-eluting stent will be non-inferior compared with the Cypher sirolimus-eluting stent with respect to in-segment late lumen loss
ENDEAVOR III - Design 3:1 Randomization Single de novo native coronary lesion Vessel diameter: 2.5-3.5 mm Lesion length: 14-27 mm Stent lengths: 18-33 mm Endeavor Stent n=327 Cypher Stent n=109 436 patients 30 U.S. sites Io Endpoint: In-segment late loss at 8 months (powered for a margin of difference of 0.2 mm) 2o Endpoints: Angiographic binary restenosis at 8 months; Clinical TLR, TVR, TVF at 9 months
Baseline Characteristics • Imbalanced for gender • 65% male Endeavor, 85% male Cypher (p<0.01) • Otherwise well balanced • Diabetes 29%, unstable 53%, • Procedure success • 99% Endeavor, 95% Cypher (p<0.002)
Non-Inferiority Margin of Difference: 0.20 mm Observed Difference: 0.21 mm p = NS for non-inferiority, <0.001 for Cypher superiority Results: Primary End PointIn-segment Late Loss 0.21 mm (mm) 0.34 0.13
0.34±0.44 0.13±0.32 Distribution of Late Loss
Angiographic End Points % mm Late Loss BinaryRestenosis
Clinical End PointsTVF Free Survival to 270-days 88.5% 88. 0% P=0.923, log rank No difference in MACE, TVF, TLR, death…
Conclusions • The non-inferiority primary endpoint of in-segment late loss was not met i.e. Endeavor was not not (= was) inferior to Cypher • No significant differences in 9 month clinical outcomes (TLR, MACE, TVR and TVF)
Interpretation • “Endeavor angiographically inferior but clinically equivalent”? • Which is the better discriminator of restenosis propensity: angiographic late loss or clinical events ?
“Late loss is more reliable than restenosis rates for discriminating restenosis propensity between new drug eluting stent platforms…” Circ 2005,112 2833
