  10. The Coral TrialResults: • - No difference in composite end point between the treatment groups. • No difference in individual components of primary endpoint between the treatment groups. • Modest difference in control of systolic BP in patients treated with stents ( -2.3 mm Hg, P= 0.03)

  11. Percutaneous Renal DenervationSymplicity HTN Study • Symplicity I, II, III HTN study designed to study efficacy of radiofrequency ablation of renal artery in patients with resistant HTN

  14. Percutaneous renal denervation in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension: final 3-year report of the Symplicity HTN-1 study • Open- Label Study of 153 patients with resistant HTN • Eligible Patients: BP > 160 mm Hg on 3 or more anti-hypertensives at “optimum dose” • End Point: Safety and Changes in BP over time. ww.thelancet.com Published online November 7, 2013

  16. Renal Sympathetic Denervation for Treatment of Drug-Resistant Hypertension: One Year Results From the Symplicity HTN-2 Randomized Controlled Trial • RCT of Medical Therapy vs Renal Denervation with Cross Over • 106 Patients with > Drug Hypertension Randomized • Patients Randomized To Medical Therapy were Crossed Over to Renal Denervation at 6 months. • Patients Followed for 12 months • Primary Endpoint = Control of BP Esler et al. Circulation 2012; 18 (25): 2976-2982

  17. Renal Sympathetic Denervation for Treatment of Drug-Resistant Hypertension: One Year Results From the Symplicity HTN-2 Randomized Controlled Trial Esler et al. Circulation 2012; 18 (25): 2976-2982

  18. Symplicity 3 HTN Trial • 535 patients with resistant HTN in 87 US medical centers • Intervention: Radiofrequency ablation vs sham control. • Radomization: 2/3 intervention, 1/3 Sham • Endpoints: safety and efficacy at 6 months • Results: Not published. Press release. Study failed to meet efficacy endpoint at 6 months.

  19. 2014 Evidence-Based Guidelines for the Management of High Blood Pressure in AdultsReport From the Panel Members Appointed to the Eight Joint National Committee ( JNC 8) • Three Questions Answered: • 1) In adults with HTN, does initiating antihypertensive pharmacologic therapy at specific thresholds improve health outcomes ? • 2) In adults with HTN, does treatment with antihypertensive pharmacologic therapy to a specific BP goal lead to improvements in health outcomes ? • 3) In adults with HTN, do various antihypertensive drug or drug classes differ in comparative benefits and harms on specific health outcomes ? James et al. JAMA published online December 18, 2013

  20. 2014 Evidence-Based Guidelines for the Management of High Blood Pressure in AdultsReport From the Panel Members Appointed to the Eight Joint National Committee ( JNC 8) • Evidence Review: • 1) Mortality, CVD-related mortality,CKD-related mortality • 2) MI, CHF, hospitalization for CHF or CVA • 3) Need for coronary revascularizaton, PTA or stent placement (coronary, carotid,renal or lower extremities) • 4) ESRD, or doubling of serum creatinine or 50% reduction in measured GFR • 5) Included only RCT James et al. JAMA published online December 18, 2013

  22. Conclusions • PTA and endovascular stenting of the renal artery for atherosclerotic disease should not be routine practice • Renal artery denervation for resistant hypertension has shown initial promise and we will have to await publication of Simplicity 3 to determine its place in management of severe hypertension • JNC 8 has raised goal BP for most patients with HTN. Jury is still out for patients with CKD or CKD plus proteinuria
