ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: There is a lack of adjudicated and prospectively randomized published outcomes on the use of drug-coated balloons (DCB) to treat dysfunctional arteriovenous fistula in Asian patients. This post hoc subgroup analysis of 112 Japanese participants from the global IN.PACT AV Access trial reports outcomes through 12 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Participants were treated with DCB (n = 58) or standard non-coated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloons (n = 54). Outcomes included target lesion primary patency (TLPP), access circuit primary patency, and safety. RESULTS: Through 6 months, TLPP was 86.0% (49/57) in the DCB group and 49.1% (26/53) in the PTA group (p < 0.001). Through 12 months, TLPP was 67.3% (37/55) in the DCB group and 43.4% (23/53) in the PTA group (p = 0.013). CONCLUSION: In this post hoc analysis of Japanese participants from the IN.PACT AV Access trial, participants treated with DCB had higher TLPP through 6 and 12 months compared with PTA.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the 3-year safety and effectiveness of the MDT-2113 (IN.PACT Admiral) drug-coated balloon (DCB) vs percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in a Japanese population with femoropopliteal occlusive disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The multicenter, prospective, IN.PACT SFA Japan randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01947478) was an independently adjudicated study evaluating Japanese participants randomized 2:1 to DCB (n=68) or PTA (n=32). The effectiveness endpoint was primary patency through 36 months, defined as freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) and freedom from restenosis (by duplex ultrasound). The effectiveness endpoint was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method; estimates are presented with the 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The safety composite endpoint was freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days and freedom from major target limb amputation and clinically-driven target vessel revascularization through 36 months. RESULTS: Primary patency by Kaplan-Meier estimate was higher in the DCB group (68.9%, 95% CI 57.5% to 80.2%) vs the PTA group (46.9%, 95% CI 29.6% to 64.2%) at 36 months (log-rank p=0.001). The CD-TLR rates were 14.9% (10/67) for the DCB group and 20.7% (6/29) for PTA (p=0.554). The safety composite endpoint occurred in 83.6% (56/67) of DCB participants and 75.9% (22/29) of PTA participants (p=0.402). All-cause death was similar between groups at 36 months [DCB 6.0% (4/67) vs PTA 6.9% (2/29), p>0.999), with no device- or procedure-related deaths in either group. CONCLUSION: The final report of the IN.PACT SFA Japan trial showed that the IN.PACT Admiral DCB is safe and had durable outcomes through 3 years in Japanese participants with femoropopliteal occlusive disease.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the longer-term safety and efficacy of the IN.PACT Admiral (MDT-2113) drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of de novo and non-stented restenotic lesions in the superficial femoral and/or proximal popliteal arteries versus uncoated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in a Japanese cohort. BACKGROUND: Although DCBs are the newest endovascular strategy for patients with peripheral artery disease presenting with femoropopliteal lesions, there remains a paucity of results in non-Caucasian populations. METHODS: IN.PACT SFA Japan is an independently-adjudicated, prospective, multicenter, randomized, single-blinded trial. Endpoints through 2 years included primary patency and a composite safety endpoint of freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days, freedom from target limb major amputation and freedom from clinically-driven target vessel revascularization at 24 months. RESULTS: One hundred patients were assigned by 2:1 randomization to treatment with the IN.PACT Admiral DCB (n = 68) or PTA (n = 32). The groups were well-matched at baseline. Mean lesion length for the DCB and PTA groups were 9.15 ± 5.85 and 8.89 ± 6.01 cm (P = 0.838), respectively. Patients treated with DCB exhibited superior 24-month primary patency compared to PTA (79.8% vs. 46.9%; log rank P < 0.001). The 24-month clinically driven target lesion revascularization rate was 9.1% for DCB versus 20.7% for PTA (P = 0.177). There were no device- or procedure-related deaths, major amputations, or thromboses in either group. CONCLUSIONS: Two-year results from IN.PACT SFA Japan demonstrated persistently superior patency and low CD-TLR rates through 2 years when compared to uncoated PTA in Japanese patients. These data are consistent with other IN.PACT DCB trials.

PURPOSE: To assess the safety and effectiveness of the MDT-2113 (IN.PACT Admiral) drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of de novo and native artery restenotic lesions in the superficial femoral and proximal popliteal arteries vs percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) with an uncoated balloon in a Japanese cohort. METHODS: MDT-2113 SFA Japan ( ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01947478) is an independently adjudicated, prospective, randomized, single-blinded trial that randomized (2:1) 100 patients (mean age 73.6±7.0 years; 76 men) from 11 Japanese centers to treatment with DCB (n=68) or PTA (n=32). Baseline characteristics were similar between the groups, including mean lesion length (9.15±5.85 and 8.89±6.01 cm for the DCB and PTA groups, respectively). The primary effectiveness outcome was primary patency at 12 months, defined as freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) and freedom from restenosis as determined by duplex ultrasonography. The safety endpoint was a composite of 30-day device- and procedure-related death and target limb major amputation and clinically-driven target vessel revascularization within 12 months. RESULTS: Patients treated with DCBs exhibited superior 12-month primary patency (89%) compared to patients treated with PTA (48%, p<0.001). The 12-month CD-TLR rate was 3% for DCB vs 19% for PTA (p=0.012). There were no device- or procedure-related deaths, major amputations, or thromboses in either group. Quality-of-life measures showed sustained improvement from baseline to 12 months in both groups. CONCLUSION: Results from the MDT-2113 SFA Japan trial showed superior treatment effect for DCB vs PTA, with excellent patency and low CD-TLR rates. These results are consistent with other IN.PACT SFA DCB trials and demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of this DCB for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions in this Japanese cohort.
