RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to compare the long-term outcomes of the novel biodegradable polymer cobalt-chromium sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) versus the durable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (DP-SES) in the I-LOVE-IT2 trial. BACKGROUNDS: Comparisons of the long-term safety and efficiency of the BP-DES versus the DP-DES are limited. METHODS: A total of 2,737 patients eligible for coronary stenting were randomized to the BP-SES or DP-SES group at a 2:1 ratio. The primary endpoint of target lesion failure (TLF) was defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization. RESULTS: A three-year clinical follow-up period was available for 2,663 (97.3%) patients. There were no significant differences in TLF (8.9% vs. 8.6%, P = 0.81), patient-oriented composite endpoint (PoCE) (15.2% vs.14.5%, P = 0.63), or individual components between the BP-SES and DP-SES. Definite/probable stent thrombosis (ST) was low and similar at 3 years (0.8% vs. 1.0%, P = 0.64). Landmark analysis of 1-3 years showed that the TLF (2.7% vs. 2.6%, P = 0.81), PoCE (6.2% vs. 5.1%, P = 0.28), and definite/probable ST (0.4% vs. 0.4%, P = 1.00) were comparable between the 2 arms. CONCLUSIONS: In this prospective randomized trial, the BP-SES showed similar clinical results versus the DP-SES in terms of safety and efficacy outcomes over a 3-year follow-up period.

OBJECTIVE: This study sought to compare the clinical outcomes of 6-month versus 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients receiving multiple biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SES) implants. BACKGROUND: The clinical outcomes for patients who undergo multiple BP-SES implantation with different DAPT durations are uncertain. METHODS: In the I-LOVE-IT 2 trial, 907 patients treated with multiple BP-SES (total stent number ≥2) were assigned to receive 6-month (n = 440) or 12-month (n = 467) DAPT. The primary endpoint was 12-month target lesion failure (TLF), which is a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI) or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization. The major secondary endpoints were 12-month net adverse clinical events, a composite of all causes of death, MI, stroke, any revascularization and bleeding. RESULTS: The number of stents per patient between the 6-month and 12-month DAPT group was similar (2.4 ± 0.7 vs. 2.4 ± 0.7, P = 0.47). The incidence of 12-month TLF was comparable in the 6-month and 12-month DAPT groups (9.3% vs.7.5%, Log-rank P = 0.33). However, landmark analysis showed that 12-month DAPT, compared to 6-month DAPT, was associated with a significantly lower risk of TLF (4.8% vs. 2.4%, Log-rank P = 0.049) at a cost of a slightly increased risk of all bleeding events (0.5% vs. 1.7%, Log-rank P = 0.07) between 6 and 12 months. CONCLUSIONS: In patients treated with multiple BP-SES, 6- and 12-month DAPT had similar impacts on 12-month clinical outcomes. Additionally, 12-month DAPT might reduce TLF between 6 and 12 months at the cost of a slightly increased risk of all bleeding events. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

BACKGROUND: The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation remains controversial. The primary aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of optimal DAPT duration on bleeding events between 6 and 12 months after biodegradable polymer-coated DES implantation. The secondary aim is to determine the predictors and prognostic implications of bleeding. METHODS: This study is a post hoc analysis of the Multi-Center Registry of EXCEL Biodegradable Polymer Drug Eluting Stents (CREATE) study population. A total of 2,040 patients surviving at 6 months were studied, including 1,639 (80.3%) who had received 6-month DAPT and 401 (19.7%) who had received DAPT greater than 6 months. Bleeding events were defined according to the bleeding academic research consortium (BARC) definitions as described previously and were classified as major/minor (BARC 2-5) and minimal (BARC 1). A left censored method with a landmark at 6 months was used to determine the incidence, predictors, and impact of bleeding on clinical prognosis between 6 and 12 months. RESULTS: At 1-year follow-up, patients who received prolonged DAPT longer than 6 months had a significantly higher incidence of overall (3.0% vs. 5.5%, P = 0.021) and major/minor bleeding (1.1% vs. 2.5%, P = 0.050) compared to the patients who received 6-month DAPT. Multivariate analysis showed that being elderly (OR = 1.882, 95% CI: 1.109-3.193, P = 0.019), having diabetes (OR = 1.735, 95% CI: 1.020-2.952, P = 0.042), having a history of coronary artery disease (OR = 2.163, 95% CI: 1.097-4.266, P = 0.026), and duration of DAPT longer than 6 months (OR = 1.814, 95% CI: 1.064-3.091, P = 0.029) were independent predictors of bleeding. Patients with bleeding events had a significantly higher incidence of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization, and stent thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged DAPT (greater than 6 months) after biodegradable polymer-coated DES increases the risk of bleeding, and is associated with adverse cardiac events at 1-year follow-up.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is an independent predictor of adverse clinical events after drug-eluting stent implantation. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term clinical efficacy and safety of biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stents in diabetic versus non-diabetic patients. METHODS: A total of 2077 "all comers," including 440 (21.2%) diabetic patients and 1637 (78.8%) non-diabetic patients, were prospectively enrolled in the CREATE study at 59 centers in four countries. The recommended antiplatelet regimen was clopidogrel and aspirin for 6 months followed by chronic aspirin therapy. The primary outcome was the rate of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and target lesion revascularization (TLR). RESULTS: Diabetic patients had higher risks of all-cause death (8.2% vs. 3.4%, P < 0.001) and cardiac death (4.1% vs. 1.4%, P < 0.001) compared with non-diabetic patients at 4 years. The rates of non-fatal MI (0.2% vs. 0.9%, P = 0.218), TLR (2.0% vs. 2.8%, P = 0.357), MACE (5.9% vs. 4.4%, P = 0.227), and overall stent thrombosis (1.6% vs. 1.6%, P = 0.932) were not significantly different between diabetic and non-diabetic patients. A landmark analysis showed that prolonged clopidogrel therapy (>6 months) was not beneficial in reducing the cumulative hazards of MACE either in diabetic or non-diabetic patients (log rank P = 0.810). CONCLUSIONS: Biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stents for the treatment of diabetic patients had a similar clinical event rate at 4 years compared with non-diabetic patients, except for a higher mortality rate.

BACKGROUND: The CREATE is a post-marketing surveillance multicenter registry that demonstrated satisfactory angiographic and clinical (at 18 months) outcomes of a biodegradable polymer based sirolimus-eluting stent (EXCEL, JW Medical System, Weihai, China) for the treatment of patients in routine clinical practice. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the three-year clinical safety and efficacy outcomes in patients enrolled in the CREATE study. METHODS: A total of 2077 all comers have been enrolled in the CREATE study at 59 centers from four countries. Recommended antiplatelet regimen was clopidogrel and aspirin for six months followed by chronic aspirin therapy. The prespecified primary outcome was the rate of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 12, 18, and 36 months. RESULTS: Clinical follow-up was completed in 2025 (97.5%) patients at three years. The average duration of clopidogrel treatment was 199.8 ± 52.7 days and 80.5% of discharged patients discontinued clopidogrel at six months. The cumulative rate of MACE was 4.5% and the rate of stent thrombosis was 1.53% at three years. At six months to three years, prolonged clopidogrel therapy (>6 months) was not beneficial in reducing cumulative hazards of MACE (3.4% vs. 3.1%, log rank P = 0.725) or stent thrombosis (1.5% vs. 0.6%, log rank P = 0.053). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates sustained three-year clinical safety and efficacy of biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stents when used with six months of dual antiplatelet therapy in a "real-world" setting.

BACKGROUND: Drug-coated balloons are a safe and effective option for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, but prior randomized studies have exclusively used paclitaxel-coated devices. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to assess for the first time the safety and efficacy of a novel biolimus-coated balloon (BCB) in patients with small-vessel coronary disease. METHODS: In a prospective trial conducted at 10 centers in China, 212 patients with small-vessel native coronary disease (reference vessel diameter 2.0-2.75 mm, lesion length ≤25 mm) were randomized to receive a BCB or an uncoated balloon. The primary endpoint was in-segment late lumen loss at 9 months. RESULTS: In the per-protocol population, angiographic late lumen loss at 9 months was 0.16 ± 0.29 mm in the BCB group vs 0.30 ± 0.35 mm with the plain balloon (P = 0.001). Late luminal enlargement (positive remodeling) occurred in 29.7% of patients in the BCB group vs 9.8% of patients with plain balloons (P = 0.007). In the full analysis set population, after 12 months, target lesion failure rates were 6.7% in the BCB group vs 13.9% with the plain balloon (HR: 0.47; 95% CI: 0.19-1.16), and rates of the patient-oriented clinical outcome were 14.3% with the BCB vs 21.8% with the plain balloon (HR: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.33-1.24). CONCLUSIONS: In this first-in-human study, a novel BCB showed superior efficacy to plain balloon angioplasty in patients with small-vessel coronary disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Positive vascular remodeling was more frequent, and there was a trend toward improved clinical outcomes.

AIMS: This analysis presents the final five-year results of the I-LOVE-IT 2 trial, a non-inferiority study comparing a biodegradable polymer (BP) sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) with a durable polymer (DP) SES in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS AND RESULTS: Overall, 2,737 Chinese patients eligible for coronary stenting were treated with BP-SES or DP-SES in a 2:1 ratio. Patients who were randomised to the BP-SES group were additionally re-randomised to receive either six-month or 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in a 1:1 ratio. The primary endpoint was 12-month target lesion failure (TLF: cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), or clinically indicated target lesion revascularisation). At five years, the overall follow-up rate was 90.8%, and the cumulative incidence of TLF as the primary endpoint was similar between BP-SES and DP-SES (hazard ratio [HR] 1.01, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.79 to 1.28), as was that for the patient-oriented composite endpoint (PoCE: all-cause death, all MI and any revascularisation) (HR 1.03, 95% CI: 0.86 to 1.23), or definite/probable stent thrombosis (ST) (HR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.70 to 1.77). Cumulative events were also similar between the six-month DAPT and 12-month DAPT groups after BP-SES implantation. CONCLUSIONS: I-LOVE-IT 2 showed that the five-year safety and efficacy of BP-SES and DP-SES were similar, as were those between six months and 12 months of DAPT after BP-SES implantation.

The development of gene therapy puts forward the requirements for efficient delivery of genetic information into diverse cells. However, in some cases of transfection, especially those for transfecting some primary cells and for delivering large size plasmid DNA (pDNA), the existing conventional transfection methods show poor efficiency. How to further improve transfection efficiency in these hard-to-achieve issues remains a crucial challenge. Here, we report a photothermal-assisted surface-mediated gene delivery based on a polydopamine-polyethylenimine (PDA-PEI) surface. The PDA-PEI surface was prepared through PEI-accelerated dopamine polymerization, which showed efficiency in the immobilization of PEI/pDNA polyplexes and remarkable photothermal properties. Upon IR irradiation, we observed improved transfection efficiencies of two important hard-to-achieve transfection issues, namely the transfection of primary endothelial cells, which are kinds of typical hard-to-transfect cells, and the transfection of cells with large-size pDNA. We demonstrate that the increases of transfection efficiency were due to the hyperthermia-induced pDNA release, the local cell membrane disturbance, and the polyplex internalization. This work highlights the importance of local immobilization and release of pDNA to gene deliveries, showing great potential applications in medical devices in the field of gene therapy.

BACKGROUND: The residual drug carriers on drug-eluting stents (DES) surfaces are considered to be one of the most significant reasons causing late thrombosis. There is no documented data currently available on the safety/benefit profile beyond 6 months of EXCEL stent, a novel sirolimus-eluting stent with biodegradable polymer coating, in treating patients with coronary artery disease (CHD). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of EXCEL stent on treating CHD patients. METHODS: Between February and March 2006, a consecutive cohort of complex patients treated with the EXCEL stent was prospectively enrolled in this single-center registry. Antiplatelet protocol was 6-month dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin followed by aspirin alone indefinitely. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 12 months. Secondary outcomes included in-segment and in-stent late lumen loss and binary restenosis rate measured by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) analysis at 8 months postindex PCI procedure. RESULTS: A total of 100 patients with 153 lesions were included in this analysis. Most lesions (83.0%) were classified as complex (B2/C). At 12 months, four patients (4.0%) experienced MACE, which were four target-lesion revascularizations due to in-stent restenosis (ISR). All patients received follow-up up to 24 +/- 0.4 months and no cardiac death, MI, and in-stent thrombosis occurred during the 6 months of dual antiplatelet therapy or the subsequent 15 months of aspirin treatment alone. QCA analysis of 112 lesions from 75 patients showed 3.6% (4/112) in-stent lesion restenosis, 5.4% (6/112) in-segment lesion restenosis, 0.12 +/- 0.34 mm in-stent late lumen loss, and 0.08 +/- 0.35 mm in-segment late lumen loss. CONCLUSIONS: In this single-center experience with complex patients and lesions, the EXCEL stent implantation with 6-month dual antiplatelet treatment proved to markedly reduce the incidence of 24-month ISR and MACE. These preliminary findings require further validation by large scale, randomized trials.

BACKGROUND: Long-term outcome of drug-eluting stents (DES) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) versus non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) remains unclear. This study sought to compare the long-term outcomes of biodegradable polymer-coated DES in patients with STEMI versus NSTE-ACS. METHODS: We explored a post hoc analysis of the 5-year outcome of the CREATE trial in the subgroup of patients with STEMI (n=318) versus NSTE-ACS (n=1223) who were implanted with biodegradable polymer-coated DES. The primary outcome was the rate of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 5 years. Clopidogrel and aspirin for 6 months followed by chronic aspirin therapy were recommended. RESULTS: STEMI patients showed a trend of increase in MACE (8.7% vs. 6.8%, log rank p=0.289) compared to NSTE-ACS patients at 5 years, and a greater risk of cardiac death (5.4% vs. 2.1%, log rank p=0.003), mainly driven by the higher cardiac death rate within the first month after stent placement (log rank p=0.003) and the last year of follow-up (log rank p=0.001). No significant difference in stent thrombosis was found between them (3.1% vs. 2.5%, log rank p=0.653). Prolonged clopidogrel therapy (>6 months) showed no effect on risk of MACE or stent thrombosis between the two groups (both p for interaction >0.1). CONCLUSIONS: STEMI patients have a higher risk of cardiac mortality compared with NSTE-ACS patients after biodegradable polymer-coated DES placement, primarily attribute to more cardiac deaths that happened within the first month after the event and the last year of follow-up.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that a novel biodegradable polymer-coated, cobalt-chromium (CoCr), sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) is noninferior in safety and efficacy outcomes compared with a durable polymer (DP)-SES. BACKGROUND: No randomized trials have the compared safety and efficacy of BP-SES versus DP-SES on similar CoCr platforms, thereby isolating the effect of the polymer type. METHODS: In this prospective, single-blind, randomized trial conducted at 32 Chinese sites, 2,737 patients eligible for coronary stenting were treated with BP- or DP-SES in a 2:1 ratio. The primary endpoint was 12-month target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically indicated target lesion revascularization. Secondary endpoints included TLF components, and definite/probable stent thrombosis. RESULTS: At 12 months, the difference in the primary endpoint of TLF between BP-SES (6.3%) and DP-SES (6.1%) groups was 0.25% (95% confidence interval: -1.67% to 2.17%, p for noninferiority = 0.0002), demonstrating noninferiority of BP-SES to DP-SES. Individual TLF components of cardiac death (0.7% vs. 0.6%, p = 0.62), target vessel myocardial infarction (3.6% vs. 4.3%, p = 0.39), and clinically indicated target lesion revascularization (2.6% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.50) were similar, as were low definite/probable stent thrombosis rates (0.4% vs. 0.6%, p = 0.55). CONCLUSIONS: In this large-scale real-world trial, BP-SES was noninferior to DP-SES for 1-year TLF.

AIMS: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the five-year safety and efficacy of a biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stent with six months dual antiplatelet therapy in daily practice. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two thousand and seventy-seven daily practice patients, exclusively treated with biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stents (EXCEL; JW Medical Systems, Weihai, China), were prospectively enrolled in the multicentre CREATE study. Clinical follow-up was completed in 1,982 patients (95.4%) at five-year follow-up. The rates of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularisation and overall major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at five-year follow-up were 3.0%, 1.5%, 3.7% and 7.4%, respectively. The rates of definite or probable stent thrombosis (ST) at five years and definite ST from one to five years were 1.1% and 0.3%, respectively. Heart failure (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.324, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.729-6.391, p<0.001) and prior MI (HR: 2.664, 95% CI: 1.358-5.227, p=0.004) were independent predictors of ST. Landmark analysis of a propensity score matched patient cohort showed that patients with or without clopidogrel treatment after six months had similar clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrates satisfactory and sustained five-year clinical safety and efficacy profiles as evidenced by the low rates of MACE and ST for the EXCEL, a biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent, when patients were treated with six months dual antiplatelet therapy in daily practice.

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stent (Excel, JW Medical System, Weihai, China) with 6-month dual antiplatelet therapy in daily practice. BACKGROUND: It has been hypothesized that persistent presence of polymer may compromise the safety of drug-eluting stents, and that therefore biodegradable polymer coatings might reduce late adverse events. METHODS: Between June and November 2006, 2,077 patients, exclusively treated with Excel stents at 59 centers from 4 countries, were enrolled in this prospective, multicenter registry. Recommended antiplatelet regimen included clopidogrel and aspirin for 6 months followed by chronic aspirin therapy. RESULTS: The average duration of clopidogrel treatment was 199.8 +/- 52.7 days and 80.5% of discharged patients discontinued clopidogrel at 6 months. The cumulative rates of major adverse cardiac events were 0.9% at 30 days, 2.7% at 1 year, and 3.1% at 18 months. Overall rate of stent thrombosis was 0.87% at 18 months. The rates of acute, subacute, late, and very late stent thrombosis were 0.1%, 0.38%, 0.34%, and 0.05%, respectively. Angiographic follow-up, performed in 974 (31.6%) lesions from 653 patients (31.7%), revealed a mean in-stent late lumen loss of 0.21 +/- 0.39 mm. Binary restenosis rates were 3.8% in-stent and 6.7% in-segment. CONCLUSIONS: This multicenter registry documents satisfactory safety and efficacy profiles, as evidenced by low rates of major adverse cardiac events and stent thrombosis up to 18 months, for the Excel biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent when used with 6 months of dual antiplatelet therapy in a "real-world" setting.
