Unmet Clinical Needsin the DES era • TLR and MACE rates remain high in patients at the highest clinical risk of TLR • Diabetics • 11.3% MACE @ 9 mo—DIABETES Trial, Sabate, TCT 2004 • 10.9% TLR @ 12 mo—TAXUS V Trial, Ellis, TCT 2005 • Small Vessels • 9.3% MACE @ 8 mo—SES SMART, Ardissino, JAMA, Dec 8, 2004 • 14.2% TLR @ 12 mo—TAXUSV Trial, Ellis, TCT2005 • Multi-Vessel Disease • 14.3% TLR—The Milan DES Experience, Columbo, ACC 2004
Endeavor Resolute™Design Goals • Improve clinical outcomes in more complex lesions • Maintain current safety profile seen with Endeavor™ DES • Extended drug elution to match the potentially delayed healing times of complex lesions • Combat the sustained stimulus to the proliferative response
Stent Delivery System Drug: zotarolimus Driver Cobalt Alloy Stent Endeavor ResoluteIncorporates the BioLinx™ Polymer System Retains three components of the Endeavor Sprint™ Coronary Stent System with a new DES polymer Novel Features of BioLinx Polymer System: • Medtronic proprietary polymer design • Hydrophobic/Hydrophilic polymer blend • Extended release kinetics • Biocompatibility equivalent to PC • Compatible with multiple drug platforms
Hydrophilic vs Hydrophobic Polymers • Polymers can either be hydrophilic or hydrophobic • Hydrophilic = water-loving • Hydrophobic = water-hating A hydrophobic polymer is not compatible with water A hydrophilic polymer is compatible with water Evidence that hydrophilic polymers are more biocompatibile Body is approximately 70% water
θ1 θ2 Hydrophilic Hydrophobic Hydrophilic vs HydrophobicContact Angles are used to determine if a polymer is hydrophilic or hydrophobic • Angle formed when water drop applied to polymer surface • Smaller angle = more hydrophilic Contact Angle Hydrophobic Polymer Hydrophilic Polymer θ1 <θ2 Water-loving Water-hating
C10 Polymer(Hydrophobic) Based primarily on hydrophobic butyl methacrylate to provide adequate hydrophobicity for zotarolimus C19 polymer(Hydrophilic) Manufactured from a mixture of hydrophobic hexyl methacrylate and hydrophilic vinyl pyrrolidinone and vinyl acetate monomers to provide enhanced biocompatibility Polyvinyl pyrrolidinone (PVP) Hydrophilic polymer increases initial drug burst and enhances biocompatibility The BioLinx Polymer SystemComposed of Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Polymers C10 C19 PVP Overall the BioLinx polymer blend displays a very hydrophilic surface to the body for biocompatibility

The Design of DES PolymersHydrophobic vs. Hydrophilic • First generation drug eluting stent (DES) coatings have been based on hydrophobic polymers to hold and elute hydrophobic drugs • SIBS • PBMA • Fluoro Polymer • Hydrophobic polymers may stimulate inflammatory reactions • Hydrophilic polymers may be more biocompatible in the aqueous body environment • The phosphorylcholine (PC) based polymer used in the second generation Endeavor DES, is a hydrophilic polymer that shows good biocompatibility • The next generation Endeavor Resolute DES coating based on the BioLinx Polymer System, is a unique blend of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers, that offers both biocompatibility and extended drug elution • Hydrophobic polymers may contribute to the problem of Late Stent Thrombosis by increasing inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and/or expression of procoagulant proteins in the vessel wall
