DES efficacy Reduced neo-intima growth → lower late loss (LL) as well as target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates vs. BMS Angio efficacy = LL Clinical efficacy = TLR
DES safety First available clinical data on DES Death, MI & MACE rates (1-2 years) were satisfactory SIRIUS @ 1 Yr
The available clinical results on the first DES studies led the medical community to conclude the following: DES efficacy > BMS efficacyDES safety = BMS safety
But……First concerns on long term DES safety started to come…

DES benchmark & REAL DAT duration in clinical studies Following ESC06, DAT duration in DES clinical studies has been extended more and more. In some cases it’s been extended beyond 3years (much longer than the suggested DAT duration in product IFUs) Knowing that DAT extension may mask late stent thrombosis events, this should be taken into account when a DES has to be selected. ***: Spirit III study results presented at TCT2009 - *: Leader trial results presented at TCT10 - **: Endeavor IV – Presented TCT2009
Bad news assessed after DES implantation We are treating an ageing patient population… Hidden comorbidities may show themselves with dual antiplatelet therapy!
100% 58.7% 52.2% Absolute Clopidogrel discontinuation (%) 43.7% 11.2% Attributable Clopidogrel discontinuation (%) 3.9% Patient non-compliant to DAT* Among 2360 unselected patients undergoing successful DES implantation, 837 reported bleeding events (32,4% of the overall population). The type of bleeding has been assessed during the routine clinical follow-up. Knowing the high risk of stent thrombosis consequent to a premature DAT termination, the impact of “Nuisance bleeding” on attributable Clopidogrel discontinuation resulted much higher than expected. *: The American Journal of Cardiology, Volume 102, Issue 12, Pages 1614-1617 (15 December 2008)

What about new anti-platelet compounds? Is stronger/ longer/ infinite DAT regimen the solution? Trials data on new drugs have been recently disclosed, but the benefits (less ST, MI, CVA…) remain mainly focused on short term vs. the potential long-term risks (bleeding)
Which is the economic impact of DAT duration extension? In this simulated case, DAT treatment with a current DES is compared to a foreseen DES which can allow for a DAT treatment of max 6-month (the number of procedures and the cost of Clopidogrel remain the same for 5 years) • Assumptions: • 2M pts per year receive DES • “ON-label” use (=6 months DAT) = 30%* • “OFF-label” use (≥12 months DAT) = 70%* • Cost of Clopidogrel = 100 US$/month 28% > 12 months 42% = 12 months *: data presented at EuroPCR07 (70% Off-label DES use, 40% of which requires the longest possible DAT duration)
CID DES – Optima Polymer-free CID Carbostent™ Technology Polymer coated DES vs Stent + Drug Stent + Polymer + Drug • Lack of inflammatory polymers • No thrombogenic surface towards the bloodstream and the vessel wall • NO polymer drawbacks
CID DES - Optima Jet Abluminal Reservoir Technology • Drug release only towards the vessel wall • 100% drug release • Deep reservoir maintains the drug concentration gradient vs. vessel wall drug release maintained for 2-3 months • The clinically proven* bio & haemo-compatible CarbofilmTM coating* is the only contact surface with the blood and the vessel wall. *Data on CarbofilmTM thromboresistance available in published clinical studies (SAFE, ANTARES, HURRICANE, SIMPLE)

ESC Guide lines for PCI in AF patients …..”The use of DES of first and second generation, due to the prolonged need of dual antiplatelet therapy, should be avoided in patients with an indication for long-term OAC”…. AF patients who would benefit from DES efficacy? ...”the new third generation DES seem to have accelerated re-endothelialisation and might become of interest. Retrospective registries (e.g.Italian Matrix registry) and trail to test their usefulness are currently performed”… Thromb Haemost. 2010 Jan;103(1):13-28
CONCLUSIONS • Following ESC06, DAT duration in real-world PCI with DES has been extended much beyond 1 year heavily impacting on countries’ health budget. • Clopidogrel hypo-responsiveness, DAT compliance or bleeding may expose patient to higher risk of DES thrombosis with a consequent increased risk of cardiac death or MI. • The OPTIMA DES (polymer-free, abluminal reservoir, integral CarbofilmTM, Tacrolimus drug elution and the new delivery system) has been specifically developed to optimize DES efficacy and safety. • All the clinical data collected up to today confirm excellent CID DES technology safety & very positive outcomes in “real world” population, including high risk patients. These results have been achieved with short dual antiplatelet therapy duration. • OPTIMA is the only DES to allow 2 months DAT - Specific patients’ populations such as AF and high risk of bleeding today can benefit from the DES efficacy thanks to CID DES
