RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To report the five-year outcomes from the ILLUMENATE Pivotal Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) of the lower dose (2 µg/mm2) Stellarex drug-coated balloon (DCB) compared with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for the treatment of symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD). BACKGROUND: Long-term safety and effectiveness data for DCBs remains limited. METHODS: ILLUMENATE Pivotal was a prospective, randomized, multi-center, single-blinded study. Patients (Rutherford 2-4) were randomized 2:1 to Stellarex DCB or PTA. Follow-up was through 60 months. RESULTS: Three hundred patients were enrolled. The mean age was 68.8 ± 10.2 years. At 60-months, freedom from a primary safety event was in 69.2% in the Stellarex DCB arm and 68.2% in the PTA arm (log rank, P=0.623). The cumulative rate of major adverse events was 41.0% compared with 44.6% (P=0.597), respectively. Freedom from clinically driven-target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) was 70.3% in the Stellarex DCB arm compared with 68.2% in the PTA arm (P=0.505). Time to first CD-TLR was 768.3 ± 478.9 days compared with 613.5 ± 453.4 days, respectively (P=0.161). Kaplan-Meier estimates of freedom from all-cause mortality were 80.1% in the Stellarex DCB arm and 80.2% in the PTA arm (log rank, P=0.980). CONCLUSIONS: The five-year results of the ILLUMENATE Pivotal RCT add to the consistent safety data from the broader ILLUMENATE clinical program. These are the first data to report the five-year safety and efficacy of a lower dose (2 µg/mm2) DCB for the treatment of symptomatic PAD. CONDENSED ABSTRACT: ILLUMENATE Pivotal was a multi-center, single-blinded RCT which assessed the lower dose (2 µg/mm2) Stellarex drug-coated balloon (DCB) compared with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for the treatment of symptomatic peripheral arterial disease. At five years, the Stellarex DCB showed similar freedom from clinically driven-target lesion revascularization (70.3% versus 68.2%; P=0.505) and no difference in all-cause mortality (80.1% versus 80.2%; log rank, P=0.980) compared with PTA. These results reinforce the previously established safety of the Stellarex DCB from the broader ILLUMENATE clinical program. Importantly, this the first report of five-year safety and effectiveness outcomes for a lower dose (2 µg/mm2) DCB.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The randomized Chocolate Touch Study demonstrated that in patients undergoing treatment of femoropopliteal artery lesions, the Chocolate Touch drug-coated balloon (DCB) was safe and had superior efficacy at 12 months compared with the Lutonix DCB. We report the prespecified diabetes subanalysis comparing outcomes among patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS: Patients with claudication or ischemic rest pain (Rutherford class 2-4) were randomized to Chocolate Touch or Lutonix DCB. The primary efficacy endpoint was DCB success defined as primary patency at 12 months (peak systolic velocity ratio <2.4 by duplex ultrasound without clinically driven target lesion revascularization in the absence of bailout stenting). The primary safety endpoint was freedom from major adverse events at 12 months, a composite of target limb-related death, major amputation, or reintervention. RESULTS: A total of 313 patients (38% DM [n=119]) were randomized to either Chocolate Touch (n=66/152) or Lutonix DCB (n=53/161). Among patients with DM, DCB success was 77.2% and 60.5% (p=0.08), and in non-DM patients, DCB success was 80% and 71.3% (p=0.2114) for the Chocolate Touch and Lutonix DCB, respectively. The primary safety endpoint was similar for both cohorts regardless of DM status (interaction test, p=0.96). CONCLUSIONS: This randomized trial demonstrated similar safety and efficacy for the treatment of femoropopliteal disease with the Chocolate Touch DCB compared with using the Lutonix DCB regardless of DM status at 12 months. CLINICAL IMPACT: This substudy of the Chocolate Touch Study demonstrated similar safety and efficacy for treatment of femoropopliteal disease of the Chocolate Touch DCB compared with the Lutonix DCB regardless of diabetes (DM) status at 12 months. Endovascular therapy has become the therapy of choice for the treatment of most symptomatic femoropopliteal lesions regardless of DM status. These results give clinicians another option when treating femoropopliteal disease in this high-risk patient population.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: First-generation drug-coated balloons (DCBs) have significantly reduced the rate of restenosis compared with balloon angioplasty alone; however, high rates of bailout stenting and dissections persist. The Chocolate Touch DCB is a nitinol constrained balloon designed to reduce acute vessel trauma and inhibit neointima formation and restenosis. METHODS: Patients with claudication or ischemic rest pain (Rutherford class 2-4) and superficial femoral or popliteal disease (≥70% stenosis) were randomized 1:1 to Chocolate Touch or Lutonix DCB at 34 sites in the United States, Europe, and New Zealand. The primary efficacy end point was DCB success, defined as primary patency at 12 months (peak systolic velocity ratio <2.4 by duplex ultrasound without clinically driven target lesion revascularization in the absence of clinically driven bailout stenting). The primary safety end point was freedom from major adverse events at 12 months, a composite of target limb-related death, major amputation, or reintervention. Both primary end points were tested for noninferiority, and if met, sequential superiority testing for efficacy followed by safety was prespecified. An independent clinical events committee, and angiographic and duplex ultrasound core laboratories blinded to treatment allocation reviewed all end points. RESULTS: A total of 313 patients were randomized to Chocolate Touch (n=152) versus Lutonix DCB (n=161). Follow-up at 1 year was available in 94% of patients. The mean age was 69.4±9.5 years, the average lesion length was 78.1±46.9 mm, and 46.2% had moderate-to-severe calcification. The primary efficacy rates of DCB success at 12 months was 78.8% (108/137) with Chocolate Touch and 67.7% (88/130) with Lutonix DCB (difference, 11.1% [95% CI, 0.6-21.7]), meeting noninferiority (Pnoninferiority<0.0001) and sequential superiority (Psuperiority=0.04). The primary safety event rate was 88.9% (128/144) with Chocolate Touch and 84.6% (126/149) with Lutonix DCB (Pnoninferiority<0.001; Psuperiority=0.27). CONCLUSIONS: In this prospective, multicenter, randomized trial, the second-generation Chocolate Touch DCB met both noninferiority end points for efficacy and safety and was more effective than Lutonix DCB at 12 months for the treatment of femoropopliteal disease.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Paclitaxel-coated balloons have shown safety and efficacy in the short- to intermediate-term; however, long-term data remain limited. OBJECTIVES: To report late safety and efficacy outcomes for a low-dose paclitaxel drug-coated balloon (DCB) compared with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in femoropopliteal lesions from a large randomized controlled trial (RCT). METHODS: ILLUMENATE Pivotal is a multicenter, single-blind RCT conducted across 43 US and EU centers to examine the safety and efficacy of the Stellarex DCB for the treatment of femoropopliteal disease. Assessments were recorded for all active patients at 36 and 48 months. Vital status of patients formally exited from the study was also collected. RESULTS: Primary patency through 36 months for patients treated with DCB was significantly higher compared with PTA (p=0.016). The primary safety endpoint through 36 months was 77.4% and 72.4%, respectively (p=0.377). Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that a higher proportion of DCB subjects were event-free compared with PTA at all study visits. The rate of major adverse event (MAE) through 48 months was 32.9% in the DCB group and 37.9% in the PTA group (p=0.428). No differences in the rate of mortality were evident through 48 months of follow-up with 15.6% in the DCB group and 15.2% in the PTA group (p=0.929). CONCLUSIONS: Stellarex DCB was associated with significantly higher patency compared with PTA through 3 years with no mortality difference detected through 4 years. The data from the ILLUMENATE Pivotal RCT support the long-term safety and efficacy of the low-dose Stellarex DCB.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the present study was to define clinical outcomes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing endovascular revascularization of infrainguinal peripheral artery disease (PAD). BACKGROUND: CKD is an established predictor of advanced PAD. However, clinical outcomes for these patients following endovascular revascularization remain inadequately defined. METHODS: Using the ongoing multicenter Excellence in Peripheral Artery Disease (XLPAD) registry (NCT01904851), we analyzed all-cause death, target limb amputation, and need for repeat revascularization for patients with and without CKD undergoing infrainguinal endovascular revascularization between the years 2005 and 2018. RESULTS: Of 3,699 patients, 15.1% (n = 559) had baseline CKD. CKD patients had significantly higher incidence of heavily calcified lesions (48.4% vs. 38.1%, p < .001) and diffuse disease (66.9% vs. 61.5%, p = .007). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed significant differences between CKD and non-CKD patient outcomes at 12 months for freedom from target limb amputation (79.9% vs. 92.7%, p < .001) and all-cause death (90.1% vs. 97.6%, p < .001). However, freedom from target vessel revascularization was similar between the groups. After adjusting for baseline comorbidities in the CKD and non-CKD groups, the hazard ratios for target limb amputation and death at 12 months were 2.28 (95% confidence interval or CI 1.25-4.17, p < .001) and 4.38 (95% CI 2.58-7.45, p < .001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Following endovascular revascularization for infrainguinal PAD, CKD was an independent predictor of all-cause death and target limb amputation at 12 months.

RESUMO

Purpose: To report a propensity score analysis comparing outcomes of the Supera interwoven nitinol stent to bare nitinol stents (BNS) in the femoropopliteal segment. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted utilizing data extracted from the Excellence in Peripheral Artery Disease (XLPAD) registry (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01904851) on 871 patients (mean age 65.1 years; 713 men) who underwent femoropopliteal balloon angioplasty with either Supera stent implantation in 118 limbs or other contemporary BNS in 753 limbs between January 2006 and December 2016. All patients in both groups were matched for baseline demographic and clinical characteristics in a 1:1 propensity score matching using the nearest neighbor method to create the 118-patient matched BNS cohort. One-year outcomes included all-cause mortality, target vessel revascularization (TVR), and target limb revascularization (TLR). An additional core laboratory analysis was conducted to measure the deployed length of Supera stents. Results: In unmatched data, the Supera stent group had a numerically lower rate of TVR (7.6% vs 13.4%, p=0.08) and a significantly lower 1-year TLR rate (7.6% vs 16.2%, p=0.02) compared to the BNS group. Both groups had similar 1-year mortality (2.5% vs 2.7%, p=0.9). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that the Supera group had a significantly lower risk of TVR (p=0.02) and TLR (p=0.002) than the BNS group. After propensity matching, the 1-year TVR estimate was lower for Supera stents (7.6% vs 12.7%, p=0.08) and significantly lower for TLR (7.6% vs 13.6%, p=0.04) than the BNS group. There was no statistically significant association between Supera stent elongation (>10% of the labeled stent length) and 1-year risk of TLR (p=0.6). Conclusion: Supera stent usage in femoropopliteal intervention was associated with reduced risk of 1-year repeat target limb revascularization compared with BNS treatment in both unmatched and matched cohorts.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate safety and effectiveness of the iCAST Covered Stent for treatment of iliac artery atherosclerotic lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The iCARUS trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00593385) was a single-arm, prospective, multicenter study that enrolled 152 per protocol subjects at 25 sites in the United States and Germany. Subjects with multiple lesions and/or stents were eligible. The primary endpoint was the composite rate of death within 30 days, target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 9 months, or restenosis at 9 months after procedure. Secondary endpoints included major adverse vascular events (MAVEs), primary patency, freedom from TLR, and clinical success. RESULTS: Device and acute procedural success were achieved in 98.7% and 92.7% of cases, respectively. MAVE rate was 4.6% at 30 days. The 9-month primary composite endpoint rate was 8.1% (10/123), which was below the performance goal of 16.57%. Nine-month primary patency, defined as continuous flow without revascularization, bypass, or target limb amputation, was 96.4%. Freedom from TLR at 9 months and 3 years was 97.2% and 86.6%, respectively. Early clinical success was seen in 88.7% of subjects at 30 days with sustained clinical benefit in 72.4% of subjects at 3 years. CONCLUSIONS: The iCARUS study demonstrated that the iCAST Covered Stent was safe and effective for treatment of atherosclerotic iliac artery lesions with sustained clinical benefit out to 3 years.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The contemporary limb outcomes and costs of stent-based vs non-stent based strategies in endovascular revascularization of femoropopliteal (FP) peripheral artery disease (PAD) are not well understood. METHODS AND RESULTS: We present data from the ongoing United States multicenter Excellence in Peripheral Artery Disease Registry between 2006-2016 to compare stent vs non-stent treatment outcomes and associated costs in FP interventions. A total of 2910 FP interventions were performed in 2162 patients (mean age, 66 years), comprising 1339 stent based (superficial femoral artery, 93%) in 1007 patients and 1571 non-stent interventions (superficial femoral artery, 85%) in 1155 patients. A growing trend for non-stent based interventions and a declining trend in repeat revascularization rate at 1 year were observed across years of registry enrollment. Stent implantation was the prevailing strategy in treating longer FP lesions (mean length, 152 mm vs 105 mm; P<.001) and chronic total occlusions (65% vs 40%; P<.001), while stent implantation was employed less frequently when treating in-stent restenotic lesions (14% vs 20%; P<.001). Stent and non-stent interventions had similar 1-year limb outcomes in all-cause death, target-limb revascularization, target-vessel revascularization, and major or minor amputation. The average procedure costs for the stent group were significantly higher than the non-stent group ($6215 vs $4790; P<.001). CONCLUSION: There is a growing trend for non-stent FP artery interventions, with a significant decline in 1-year target-limb revascularization rates over time. One-year limb outcomes in stent-based compared to non-stent interventions are similar; however, at a significantly higher procedural cost.

RESUMO

Objectives To evaluate the novel Phoenix Atherectomy System as percutaneous treatment of de novo and restenotic infrainguinal arterial lesions. Methods This prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized investigational device exemption trial was conducted across 16 US and German centers between August 2010 and April 2013. Intention-to-treat enrollment was 128 patients (mean age: 71.8 years, 59% male) with 149 lesions (mean length: 34 mm, mean diameter stenosis: 89.5%), and the primary analysis per-protocol population consisted of 105 patients with 123 lesions. The primary efficacy endpoint, technical success, was the achievement of acute debulking with a post-atherectomy residual diameter stenosis ≤50% (before adjunctive therapy). The primary safety endpoint was the major adverse event (MAE) rate through 30 days. Results For the primary analysis per-protocol population, the rate of lesion technical success was 95.1% (117/123), with the lower limit of the 95% CI 90.6%, meeting the prospectively established target performance goal of ≥86%. After post-atherectomy adjunctive therapy, residual stenosis was ≤30% for 99.2% (122/123) of lesions (mean final diameter stenosis 10.5%). Improvement of ≥1 Rutherford class occurred for 74.5% of patients through 30 days and for 80% through six months. MAEs were experienced by 5.7% (6/105) of patients through 30 days (with the upper limit of the 95% CI 11.0%, meeting the target performance goal of <20%), and 16.8% through six months. Six-month freedom from TLR and TVR was 88.0% and 86.1%, respectively. Conclusions Based on the high rate of technical success and the low rates of MAEs through six months, the Phoenix Atherectomy System is safe and effective for the debulking of lower-extremity arterial lesions.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) are a predominant revascularization therapy for symptomatic femoropopliteal artery disease. Because of the differences in excipients, paclitaxel dose, and coating morphologies, varying clinical outcomes have been observed with different DCBs. We report the results of 2 studies investigating the pharmacokinetic and clinical outcomes of a new DCB to treat femoropopliteal disease. METHODS: In the ILLUMENATE Pivotal Study (Prospective, Randomized, Single-Blind, U.S. Multi-Center Study to Evaluate Treatment of Obstructive Superficial Femoral Artery or Popliteal Lesions With A Novel Paclitaxel-Coated Percutaneous Angioplasty Balloon), 300 symptomatic patients (Rutherford class 2-4) were randomly assigned to DCB (n=200) or standard angioplasty (percutaneous transluminal angioplasty [PTA]) (n=100). The primary safety end point was freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days, and freedom from target limb major amputation and clinically driven target lesion revascularization through 12 months. The primary effectiveness end point was primary patency through 12 months. In the ILLUMENATE PK study (Pharmacokinetic Study of the Stellarex Drug-Coated Angioplasty Balloon), paclitaxel plasma concentrations were measured after last DCB deployment and at prespecified times (at 1, 4, 24 hours and at 7 and 14 days postprocedure) until no longer detectable. RESULTS: In the ILLUMENATE Pivotal Study, baseline characteristics were similar between groups: 50% had diabetes mellitus, 41% were women, mean lesion length was 8.3 cm, and 44% were severely calcified. The primary safety end point was met (92.1% for DCB versus 83.2% for PTA, P=0.025 for superiority) and the primary patency rate was significantly higher with DCB (76.3% for DCB versus 57.6% for PTA, P=0.003). Primary patency per Kaplan-Meier estimates at day 365 was 82.3% for DCB versus 70.9% for PTA (P=0.002). The rate of clinically driven target lesion revascularization was significantly lower in the DCB cohort (7.9% versus 16.8%, P=0.023). Improvements in ankle-brachial index, Rutherford class, and quality of life were comparable, but the PTA cohort required twice as many revascularizations. Pharmacokinetic outcomes showed that all patients had detectable paclitaxel levels after DCB deployment that declined within the first hour (54.4±116.9 ng/mL to 1.4±1.0 ng/mL). CONCLUSIONS: The data demonstrate superior safety and effectiveness of the Stellarex DCB in comparison with PTA, and plasma levels of paclitaxel fall to low levels within 1 hour.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the DEFINITIVE Ca(++) study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of directional atherectomy and distal embolic protection, used together to treat moderate to severely calcified femoropopliteal lesions. BACKGROUND: Despite advances in endovascular treatment modalities, treatment of calcified lesions remains a challenge. METHODS: A total of 133 subjects with 168 moderate to severely calcified lesions were enrolled. Lesions were treated with directional atherectomy devices, coupled with distal embolic protection. RESULTS: The 30-day freedom from MAE rate was 93.1%. Per angiographic core laboratory assessment, the primary effectiveness endpoint (≤50% residual diameter stenosis) was achieved in 92.0% (lower confidence bound of 87.6%) of lesions. By core lab analysis, these results did not achieve the success criteria (90%) for the primary effectiveness objective. Per site assessment, the objective was met with the endpoint being achieved in 97.0% (lower confidence bound 93.8%). A mean residual diameter stenosis of 33.3% was achieved with the directional atherectomy device. This was further decreased to 24.1% with the use of adjunctive therapy. The proportion of asymptomatic subjects [Rutherford Clinical Category (RCC) = 0] increased from 0% at baseline to 52.3% at the 30-day follow-up visit. In total, 88.5% of subjects experienced an improvement of one or more Rutherford categories. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the DEFINITIVE Ca++ study demonstrate that the SilverHawk and TurboHawk atherectomy devices are safe and effective in the endovascular treatment of moderate to severely calcified lesions in the superficial femoral and/or popliteal arteries when used with the SpiderFX distal embolic protection device.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of orbital atherectomy in calcified infrapopliteal arteries in patients with critical limb ischemia compared to balloon angioplasty (BA) alone. METHODS: A randomized multicenter study was undertaken to evaluate short and 1-year outcomes in 50 patients (32 men; mean age 71 years, range 40-90) with confirmed calcified lesions using 1∶1 randomization to the Diamondback 360° Orbital Atherectomy System followed by BA vs. BA alone. All patients had severe (≥50% stenosis) peripheral artery disease (Rutherford classification 4-6) in the popliteal, tibial, and/or peroneal arteries. The primary endpoint was defined as restoration of a normal lumen (residual stenosis ≤30%) with no bailout stenting or dissection types C through F. Scheduled follow-up visits were conducted according to a common protocol at 1, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS: Procedural success was 93.1% (27/29 lesions) for atherectomy + BA patients and 82.4% (28/34 lesions) for BA alone (p = 0.27). Bailout stenting was needed in 2 (6.9%) of the 29 atherectomy + BA lesions and in 5 (14.3%) of the 35 BA-treated lesions (p = 0.44). At 1 year, there were no amputations in either group related to the index procedure. Estimates for freedom from target vessel revascularization and all-cause mortality were 93.3% and 100% in the atherectomy + BA group vs. 80.0% (p = 0.14) and 68.4% (p = 0.01) in the BA group, respectively. Proportional hazard models evaluating survival time vs. status of residual stenosis determined a hazard ratio for major adverse events of 5.6 for patients with an acute post-procedure residual stenosis >30% (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION: Debulking with orbital atherectomy appeared to increase the chance of reaching a desirable angioplasty result, with less acute need for bailout stenting and a higher procedure success. A negative association between procedure success and risk of serious adverse outcomes should encourage larger confirmatory studies.
