Stent com liberação de everolimus vs. stent com liberação de zotarolimus na prática clínica do mundo real / Everolimus-eluting stents versus zotarolimus-eluting stent in the real word clinical practice

RESUMO

INTRODUÇÃO: Os stents com liberação de fármacos antiproliferativos (SF) têm demonstrado sua eficácia nos mais variados cenários. Entretanto, preocupações recentes com a maior ocorrência de trombose muito tardia com a primeira geração de SF, possivelmente associda a reendotelização retardada ou incompleta, impulsionaram o desenvolvimento de dispositivos mais eficazes e seguros. Método: Estudo retrospectivo, de centro único, incluindo pacientes submetidos a intervenção coronária percutânea entre janeiro de 2006 e dezembro de 2008, tratados com SF com liberação de everolimus (everolimus-eluting stent - EES) (Xience V TM/Promus TM) e com SF com liberação de zotarolimus (zotarolimus-eluting stent - ZES) (Endeavor TM). O objetivo principal foi comparar a taxa de eventos cardíacos maiores no seguimento de 12 meses entre os pacientes dos grupos EES e ZES. Resultados: No total, 198 pacientes com 266 lesões foram incluídos nesta análise. A média de idade foi de 60 + - 10 anos e 39 por cento tinham diabetes melito, sem diferenças entre os grupos. O diâmetro de referência (2,3 + - 0,5 mm vs. 2,38 + - 0,2 mm; P=0,14) e a extensão da lesão (16,3 + - 9,4 mm vs. 16,1 + - 11,3 mm; P = 0,89) também não diferiram entre os grupos. Após 12 meses de seguimento, a taxa de eventos...

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The use of drug-eluting stents (DES) has proven to be effective in different angiographic scenarios. However, recent concerns with the occurrence of very late stent thrombosis with the first DES generation, probably related to delayed or incomplete endothelization, have led to the development of new safer and more effective devices. METHOD: Retrospective, single center study, including patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention between January 2006 and December 2008, treated with everolimuseluting stent (EES) (Xience V TM/PromusTM) and zotarolimuseluting stent (ZES) (EndeavorTM). Our objective was to compare the rates of major adverse cardiac events between EES and ZES patients after 12 months of follow-up. RESULTS: Overall, 198 patients with 266 lesions were included in the study. Mean age was 60 ± 10 years and 39% had diabetes mellitus, without significant differences between groups. The reference diameter (2.3 ± 0.5 mm vs. 2.38 ± 0.2 mm; P = 0.14), as well as lesion length (16.3 ± 9.4 mm vs. 16.1 ± 11.3 mm; P = 0.89), were also not significantly different between groups. After 12 months of follow-up, the rate of major adverse cardiac events was 8.16% in the EES group vs. 8% in the ZES group (P = 0.96), with a global rate of target-lesion revascularization of 2% (1% EES and 3% ZES; P = 0.32). There were no cases of definite stent thrombosis. CONCLUSION: In this study of non-selected patients, the rates of major adverse cardiac events were similar between patients treated in the EES and ZES groups, with low target-lesion revascularization rates and excellent safety profile after 12 months of follow-up.
