RESUMO
The objective of the study is to investigate the difference in 1-year late lumen loss (LLL) between the high- (IN.PACT Admiral) and low-dose (Lutonix) paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB). Although a recent randomized clinical trial demonstrated no difference in efficacy endpoint between high- and low-dose PCB, it remains unclear whether high-dose PCB was superior to low-dose PCB in actual clinical practice. We enrolled 64 patients with 67 de novo femoropopliteal lesions who underwent PCB angioplasty at Kokura Memorial Hospital from May 2014 to March 2020 and subsequent follow-up angiography after 1 year. The primary endpoint was 1-year LLL, whereas the secondary endpoints were binary restenosis and clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) after 1 year. The high- and low-dose PCB groups had 45 and 22 lesions, respectively. Although the low-dose PCB group had higher rates of coronary artery disease, hemodialysis, and chronic limb-threatening ischemia than the high-dose PCB group, the latter had a longer lesion length and more lesions with a TASC classification C or D than the former. The high-dose PCB group had a significantly lower LLL than the low-dose PCB group (0.40 ± 1.05 vs. 1.19 ± 1.03 mm; P = 0.003, respectively). Moreover, the high-dose PCB group had significantly lower rates of binary restenosis at 1 year than the low-dose PCB group (22.2% vs. 50.0%; P = 0.02, respectively). Moreover, negative LLL was only observed in the high-dose PCB group (33.3% vs. 0%, P = 0.005). The high-dose PCB group had a significantly lower LLL than the low-dose PCB group.

PURPOSE: To investigate lumen loss (LL) at 1 year after bare nitinol stent (BNS) implantation for de novo superficial femoral artery (SFA) lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The subjects were 701 consecutive patients (mean age 74±9 years; 492 men) with 817 de novo SFA lesions treated with BNS implantation between January 2004 and September 2015. The mean lesion length was 141±88 mm and the mean vessel diameter was 5.4±0.9 mm. The endpoint was LL at 1 year after BNS implantation. Secondary outcomes were restenosis and target lesion revascularization (TLR) estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method; estimates are reported with the 95% confidence interval (CI). LL was defined as the minimum lumen diameter immediately after BNS implantation minus that at 1 year measured by angiographic quantitative vessel analysis. The distribution of LL in the overall population was estimated using an accelerated failure time model. RESULTS: Mean LL at 1 year was estimated to be 1.74±1.28 mm (95% CI 1.63 to 1.84). Current smoking was positively associated with LL (p=0.015), whereas lack of cilostazol use was correlated with an increase in LL (p=0.001). Reference vessel diameter and lesion length did not have any significant association with LL at 1 year. The 1-year cumulative estimate of restenosis was 25% (95% CI 22% to 28%); the corresponding value for TLR was 18% (95% CI 15% to 21%). CONCLUSION: Mean LL progressed by at least 1.6 mm up to 1 year after BNS implantation. The risk factors for increased LL were current smoker and lack of cilostazol use.

To examine clinical outcomes for combination therapy of heparin-bonded covered stent [VIABAHN™ stent (VIA)] and bare-nitinol stent (BNS), and to determine independent predictors of restenosis after VIA implantation assessed by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). A retrospective analysis was conducted on VIA use in the femoropopliteal artery of 71 patients (81 lesions) treated between June 2012 and November 2018. We divided the treated lesions into two groups; that is, whether BNS was added at the proximal site of the VIA or not (combination of VIA and BNS group [COM; n = 21] vs. VIA group [n = 60]). The median follow-up duration was 21.6 months (interquartile range, 13.2-28.8 months). Restenosis at 2 years was observed in 5 lesions (33%) in COM group and 17 lesions (38%) in VIA group (log-rank, P = 0.74). In VIA group, 14 lesions developed restenosis within 12 months. Multivariate logistic regression analysis of VIA group revealed that the proximal plaque burden was an independent predictor of restenosis within 12 months after VIA implantation (odds ratio 1.15, 95% confidence interval 1.01-1.30, P = 0.01), with the optimal cutoff value of 43% (area under the receiver operator characteristic curve 0.79, sensitivity 91%, specificity 69%). A remaining plaque of > 43% at the proximal reference segment was an independent predictor of restenosis after VIA implantation. When residual stenosis is observed at the proximal site of SFA after VIA implantation, combination therapy of VIA and BNS would be an optimal management.

The impact of lesion complexity on long-term vascular response to cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCrEES) remains unclear. We sought to evaluate them using optical coherence tomography (OCT). A total of 47 patients with 58 lesions treated only with CoCrEES and no target-vessel events within 5 years after implantation were prospectively enrolled and underwent 5-year follow-up OCT. Quantitative parameters and qualitative characteristics of the neointima were evaluated using multilevel logistic or linear regression models with random effects at three levels: lesion, cross-section (CS), and strut. According to the lesion complexity, the lesions were classified into the two groups: the complex lesion (CL) and non-CL group. The CL was defined as having at least 1 high-risk feature such as acute coronary syndrome lesion, lesion length > 20 mm, severe calcification requiring rotational atherectomy, and chronic total occlusion at the index procedure. A total of 11,034 struts (CL, n = 6240; non-CL, n = 4794) and 1202 (CL, n = 683; non-CL, n = 519) CSs were analyzed. The percentage of uncovered and malapposed struts did not differ significantly between the CL and non-CL groups (0.90 vs. 0.54%, P = 0.78; 0.56 vs. 0.10%, P = 0.16, respectively). The incidence of neoatherosclerosis was comparable between both groups in the CS- and lesion-level analysis (3.5 vs. 4.6%, P = 0.91; 32.0 vs. 24.2%, P = 0.52, respectively). At 5 years, CoCrEES shows an excellent vascular healing and similar frequency of neoatheroslerosis in patients without target-vessel events, regardless of the lesion complexity.

OBJECTIVES: The objective was to assess whether total stent length (TSL) after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation was associated with long-term clinical outcomes. BACKGROUND: The impact of TSL after CoCr-EES implantation on long-term clinical outcomes remained unclear. METHODS: A total of 1,007 consecutive patients with 1,382 lesions treated only with CoCr-EES were analyzed. Patients and lesions were divided into tertile group: TSL per patient (TSL-P) (PA [8-23 mm], n = 382; PB [23-46 mm], n = 312; and PC [46-204 mm], n = 313), and TSL per lesion (TSL-L) (LA [8-18 mm], n = 486; LB [18-28 mm], n = 475; and LC [28-140 mm], n = 421). The cumulative 3-year incidence of clinically driven target-lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) and definite stent thrombosis (ST) based on TSL-P and TSL-L groupings were accessed. RESULTS: After inverse probability of weighted adjustment, the cumulative 3-year incidence of CD-TLR for the TSL-P and TSL-L were higher in the PC and LC groups than in the other groups (hazard ratio [HR] 2.92, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.66-5.15, P < 0.001 vs. PA; HR 2.49, 95% CI 1.47-4.20, P < 0.001 vs. PB; HR 1.94, 95% CI 1.15-3.28, P = 0.01 vs. LA; HR 2.80, 95% CI 1.73-4.54, P < 0.001 vs. LB, respectively). No significant differences in the cumulative 3-year incidence of definite ST were observed in both TSL-P and TSL-L groups. CONCLUSIONS: TSL after CoCr-EES implantation has significantly impact on CD-TLR rate through 3 years, but it is not associated with an increased incidence of definite ST. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

OBJECTIVES: We sought to assess whether balloon angioplasty (BA) alone for small femoropopliteal disease improved the outcome following endovascular therapy as compared with stent implantation. BACKGROUND: The optimal strategy of endovascular therapy for small vessel arteries in femoropopliteal disease remains unclear. METHODS: We performed a multicenter retrospective analysis of 337 consecutive patients (371 limbs) with femoropopliteal arteries 4.0 mm or less in diameter and 150 mm or less in length. RESULTS: Cumulative 3-year incidence of primary patency was significantly higher in the BA group than in the stent group (53.8% vs. 34.2%, P = 0.002). While assisted-primary patency and freedom from any major adverse limb events were also significantly higher in the BA group than in the stent group (70.9% vs. 44.2%, P < 0.001 and 60.6% vs. 36.4%, P = 0.001, respectively), secondary patency did not significantly differ between the two groups (86.9% vs. 86.9%, P = 0.67). Predictors of restenosis were diabetes mellitus (hazard ratio [HR], 1.61; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.14-2.31; P = 0.01), no administration of cilostazol (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.07-2.13; P = 0.02), stent implantation (HR, 1.68; 95% CI, 1.15-2.41; P = 0.01), and lesion length >75.0 mm(HR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.50-2.92; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Lesions in small (<4.0 mm diameter) FP vessels demonstrated better primary patency at 3 years when successfully treated with balloon angioplasty alone as opposed to routine or bailout stenting. This difference was especially pronounced for lesions 75 to 150 mm in length.

PURPOSE: To present a propensity score matching analysis comparing the 1-year outcomes of de novo femoropopliteal lesions treated with drug-eluting stents (DES) or bare nitinol stents (BNS). METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted of 452 limbs in 389 patients (mean age 74±8 years; 284 men) treated with DES implantation and 1808 limbs in 1441 patients (mean age 72±9 years; 1023 men) implanted with BNS for de novo femoropopliteal lesions. One-year follow-up data were available on all patients. The primary endpoint was 12-month restenosis assessed by duplex ultrasonography or follow-up angiography within ±2 months. Secondary endpoint was major adverse limb events (MALE) including major amputation, any reintervention, and restenosis. RESULTS: The BNS group was more likely to have current smoking, chronic total occlusion, and poor below-the-knee runoff. The stratification analysis demonstrated that diabetes mellitus (DM) and reference vessel diameter (RVD) had a significant interaction on the association of DES vs BNS implantation with restenosis (interaction p<0.05). Thus, the population was stratified into 4 subgroups (1: -DM, RVD ≥5 mm, 2: +DM, RVD ≥5 mm, 3: -DM, RVD <5 mm, and 4: +DM, RVD <5 mm); the RVD threshold was empirically determined. There were no significant intergroup differences in baseline variables after matching. There was no significant difference in restenosis risk between DES and BNS in the RVD ≥5 mm subgroup regardless of the presence of DM. The DES group had a significantly higher restenosis risk in the RVD <5 mm subgroup regardless of the presence of DM. No significant difference was observed in the risk of major amputation, reintervention, or MALE in any subgroup. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that a first-generation DES was not superior to a conventional BNS for femoropopliteal lesions.

PURPOSE: To compare optimal balloon angioplasty with nitinol stenting and drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for femoropopliteal in-stent occlusion (ISO). METHODS: A dual center, retrospective study was performed from January 2004 to December 2014 encompassing 110 ISOs after bare nitinol stenting for a femoropopliteal lesion in 100 patients (mean age 72.7±10.1 years; 58 men). These patients underwent optimal balloon angioplasty with implantation of a bare stent (conventional group, n=79) or a DES (n=21). The primary endpoint was recurrent in-stent restenosis (Re-ISR); secondary endpoints were recurrent target lesion revascularization (Re-TLR), reocclusion, and major adverse limb events (MALE). Re-ISR or reocclusion was defined as ISR or occlusion after TLR. Restenosis was defined as a peak systolic velocity ratio >2.4 on a duplex scan or >50% stenosis on angiography. Univariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify any relationships between patient and procedure variables and the occurrence of Re-ISR; the results are presented as the hazard ratio (HR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 34.9±27.4 months. At 2 years, Kaplan-Meier estimated freedom from Re-ISR rates were 79.3% in the DES group and 20.2% in the conventional group, respectively (p<0.001). The rates of freedom from Re-TLR, reocclusion, and MALE at 2 years were 85.7%, 85.9%, and 85.7% in the DES group and 27.1%, 42.5%, and 25.3% in the conventional group, respectively (p<0.001, p=0.006, and p<0.001, respectively). Univariate analysis showed only postprocedure stenosis (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.07, p<0.001) as a predictor of Re-ISR. Postprocedure ABI (HR 0.06, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.30, p<0.001) and DES use (HR 0.20, 95% CI 0.07 to 0.44, p<0.001) were associated with a lower likelihood of developing Re-ISR. CONCLUSION: In this small comparative study, DES stent implantation gives more favorable outcomes than conventional treatment for ISO after femoropopliteal stenting.

PURPOSE: To compare the vascular response after paclitaxel-coated nitinol drug-eluting stent (Zilver PTX) implantation for superficial femoral artery lesions after 6 and 12 months using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS: Serial OCT examinations were performed in 5 patients (4 men; mean age 78.4 ± 6.8 years) with 9 Zilver PTX stents at 6- and 12-month follow-up. Variables evaluated included neointimal thickness and apposition on each strut, the incidence of extrastent lumen (ESL), peristrut low-intensity area (PLIA), and neovascularization at 1-mm intervals. RESULTS: A total of 249 matched cross-section images were evaluated and included 4788 and 4826 struts at 6 and 12 months, respectively. Mean neointimal thickness significantly increased from 480 to 540 µm between 6 and 12 months (p < 0.001). The percentage of uncovered struts tended to decrease at 12 months (3% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.054), whereas the percentage of malapposed struts were similar at both examinations (0.2% vs. 0.2%, p > 0.99). Although the incidence of ESL in cross sections was not different (35% vs. 31%, p = 0.29), median ESL area significantly increased from 6 to 12 months [0.12 (0.04-0.36) vs. 0.31 (0.14-0.59) mm(2), p = 0.003)]. The presence of PLIA (29% vs. 44%, p < 0.001) and neovascularization (14% vs. 27%, p < 0.001) increased from 6 to 12 months. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that delayed vascular healing and persistent peristent inflammation may be present even at 12 months after Zilver PTX implantation.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship between 1-year primary patency and lesion length in patients with femoropopliteal disease treated with bare nitinol stents. METHODS: The study was a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained multicenter database. Between January 2004 and December 2011, 1047 consecutive patients (mean age 72 years; 765 men) underwent femoropopliteal stenting with nitinol stents in 1373 limbs. The mean vessel diameter was 5.3±0.7 mm and the mean lesion length was 142±75 mm. One-year follow-up data were collected and analyzed to ascertain which lesion length would be expected to demonstrate a 1-year primary patency above the established 66% objective performance goal (OPG). RESULTS: The lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the unadjusted 1-year primary patency was >66% when the lesion length was ≤243 mm. After adjustment of the covariates to match those of the OPG-derived population, the 1-year primary patency decreased linearly with longer lesion length. The 1-year primary patency was 83.2% (95% CI 79.8% to 86.1%) for a 100-mm lesion length, 76.4% (95% CI 71.7% to 80.5%) for a 200-mm lesion length, and 70.7% (95% CI 62.4% to 77.7%) for a 300-mm lesion length. The maximum lesion length providing a 1-year primary patency significantly greater than 66% was calculated to be 263 mm. CONCLUSION: The 1-year primary patency of femoropopliteal lesions treated with bare nitinol stents decreased linearly with longer lesion length. The maximum lesion length providing a higher patency rate than the OPG of 66% was ~25 cm.

The Agent device consists of a semi-compliant balloon catheter, which is coated with a therapeutic low-dose formulation of paclitaxel (2 µg/mm2) blended with an inactive excipient acetyl-tri-n-butyl citrate (ATBC). AGENT Japan SV is a randomized controlled study that enrolled 150 patients from 14 Japanese sites treated with Agent or SeQuent Please paclitaxel-coated balloon. This study also includes a single-arm substudy evaluating the safety and effectiveness of Agent in patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR). Patients with a single de novo native lesion (lesion length ≤ 28 mm and reference diameter ≥ 2.00 to < 3.00 mm) were randomized 2:1 to receive either Agent (n = 101) or SeQuent Please (n = 49). The ISR substudy enrolled 30 patients with lesion length ≤ 28 mm and reference diameter ≥ 2.00 to ≤ 4.00 mm. In the SV RCT, target lesion failure (TLF) at 1 year occurred in four patients treated with Agent (4.0%) versus one patient with SeQuent Please (2.0%; P = 1.00). None of the patients in either treatment arm died. There were no significant differences in the rates of myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization and target lesion thrombosis through 1 year. In the ISR substudy, the 1-year rates of TLF and target lesion thrombosis were 6.7% and 0.0%, respectively. These data support the safety and effectiveness of the Agent paclitaxel-coated balloon in patients with small vessels and ISR.

BACKGROUND: There was no study evaluating the effects of an aspirin-free strategy in patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). OBJECTIVES: The authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an aspirin-free strategy in patients undergoing complex PCI. METHODS: We conducted the prespecified subgroup analysis based on complex PCI in the STOPDAPT-3 (ShorT and OPtimal duration of Dual AntiPlatelet Therapy after everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stent-3), which randomly compared low-dose prasugrel (3.75 mg/d) monotherapy to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with low-dose prasugrel and aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. Complex PCI was defined as any of the following 6 criteria: 3 vessels treated, ≥3 stents implanted, ≥3 lesions treated, bifurcation with 2 stents implanted, total stent length >60 mm, or a target of chronic total occlusion. The coprimary endpoints were major bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5) and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) at 1 month. RESULTS: Of the 5,966 study patients, there were 1,230 patients (20.6%) with complex PCI. Regardless of complex PCI, the effects of no aspirin relative to DAPT were not significant for the coprimary bleeding (complex PCI: 5.30% vs 3.70%; HR: 1.44; 95% CI: 0.84-2.47; P = 0.18 and noncomplex PCI: 4.26% vs 4.97%; HR: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.65-1.11; P = 0.24; P for interaction = 0.08) and cardiovascular (complex PCI: 5.78% vs 5.93%; HR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.62-1.55; P = 0.92 and noncomplex PCI: 3.70% vs 3.10%; HR: 1.20; 95% CI: 0.88-1.63; P = 0.25; P for interaction = 0.48) endpoints without significant interactions. CONCLUSIONS: The effects of the aspirin-free strategy relative to standard DAPT for the cardiovascular and major bleeding events were not different regardless of complex PCI.

PURPOSE: In the present trial, the 24-month safety and effectiveness of the TCD-17187 drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of atherosclerotic lesions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and proximal popliteal artery (PA) were evaluated in Japanese patients. METHODS: This was a prospective, multicenter, core laboratory-adjudicated, single-arm trial. From 2019 to 2020, 121 patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease were enrolled. The primary effectiveness outcome measure was primary patency. The safety outcome measure was the major adverse event (MAE) rate. RESULTS: Age was 74.5 ± 7.3 years, and diabetes mellitus was present in 67.5%. Lesion length and reference vessel diameter (RVD) were 106.0 ± 52.6 mm and 5.2 ± 0.8 mm, respectively. Chronic total occlusion (CTO) and bilateral calcification rate (Grade 3 and 4 by peripheral arterial calcium scoring system (PACSS)) were 17.5% and 50.8%, respectively. The 24-month primary patency rate by duplex ultrasound was 71.3%, while freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) was 87.0%. The MAE rate was 13.2% and all events consisted of CD-TLR. There were no instances of device- or procedure-related deaths major amputations throughout the 24 months. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis revealed significant differences associated with loss of primary patency in the following characteristics: CTO, restenotic lesion and RVD. CONCLUSION: This trial confirmed the safety and effectiveness of TCD-17187 DCB for atherosclerotic lesions of the SFA and/or proximal PA for up to 24 months. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 3, Cohort study.

OBJECTIVES: This study explores viral factors of the interferon (IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) resistance-determining region (IRRDR), the IFN sensitivity-determining region (ISDR) and the core protein, and host factor interleukin 28B associated with response to pegylated IFN (PEG-IFN) and RBV combination therapy, and the correlation of viral and host factors with IFN-λ1. METHODS: A total of 58 patients underwent PEG-IFN/RBV combination therapy for 48 weeks. The pretreatment factors associated with rapid virological response (RVR) and sustained virological response (SVR) were analyzed. Pretreatment IFN-λ1 serum levels were compared with the viral and host factors. RESULTS: Univariate analysis showed that IRRDR ≥6 and ISDR ≥2 were significant pretreatment predictors of RVR, and multivariate analysis identified IRRDR ≥6 and hemoglobin as significant predictors of SVR. Pretreatment IFN-λ1 was significantly higher in the SVR group than in the non-SVR group and also in the IRRDR ≥6 group than in the IRRDR ≤5 group. CONCLUSIONS: IRRDR ≥6 was the only significant predictor of SVR and was correlated with IFN-λ1. High serum levels of IFN-λ1 may be conducive to effective PEG-IFN/RBV combination therapy because of the immunomodulatory system.

Background Although clinical trials have reported favorable outcomes after drug-coated balloon (DCB) therapy for femoropopliteal lesions, their real-world performance and predictors have not been well evaluated. This study aimed to elucidate 1-year freedom from restenosis and to explore the associated factors after a DCB for femoropopliteal lesions in clinical settings. Methods and Results This multicenter, prospective cohort registered 3165 de novo or restenotic femoropopliteallesions (mean lesion length, 13.5±9.3 cm; chronic total occlusion, 25.9%; severe calcification, 14.6%) that underwent successful DCB (Lutonix [24.2%] and IN.PACT Admiral [75.8%]) treatment between March 2018 and December 2019. Patency was assessed at 12±2 months. The primary outcome measure was 1-year freedom from restenosis and its associated factors. Bailout stenting was performed in 3.5% of patients. The postprocedural slow flow phenomenon was observed in 3.9% of patients. During a median follow-up of 14.2 months, 811 patients experienced restenosis. The Kaplan-Meier estimate of freedom from restenosis was 84.5% at 12 months (79.7% at 14 months). Focal, tandem, diffuse, and occlusive restenosis accounted for 37.4%, 9.8%, 18.9%, and 33.9%, respectively. Freedom from target lesion revascularization was 91.5% at 12 months. Risk factors independently associated with 1-year restenosis were a history of revascularization, smaller distal reference vessel diameter, severe calcification, chronic total occlusion, low-dose DCB, and residual stenosis. Conclusions The 1-year clinical outcomes after DCB use for femoropopliteal lesions in real-world practice was favorable. The additive risk factors were associated with a lower rate of freedom from restenosis.

BACKGROUND: Endovascular treatment of femoropopliteal artery disease has shifted toward drug-coated balloons (DCB). However, limited data are available regarding the safety and efficacy of DCB vs bare-metal stents (BMS). OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare DCB vs BMS outcomes in a propensity-adjusted, pooled analysis of 4 prospective, multicenter trials. METHODS: Patient-level data were pooled from 4 prospective, multicenter studies: the IN.PACT SFA I/II and IN.PACT SFA Japan randomized controlled DCB trials and the Complete SE and DURABILITY II single-arm BMS studies. Outcomes were compared using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Clinical endpoints were 12-month primary patency, freedom from 36-month clinically driven target lesion revascularization, and cumulative 36-month major adverse events (MAE). RESULTS: The primary analysis included 771 patients (288 DCB, 483 BMS). IPTW-adjusted demographic, baseline lesion, and procedural characteristics were matched between groups. The adjusted mean lesion length was 8.1 ± 4.7 cm DCB and 7.9 ± 4.5 cm BMS. The IPTW-adjusted Kaplan-Meier estimates of 12-month primary patency (90.4% DCB, 80.9% BMS, P = 0.007), freedom from 36-month clinically driven target lesion revascularization (85.6% DCB, 73.7% BMS, P = 0.001), and cumulative incidence of 36-month MAE (25.3% DCB, 38.8% BMS, P < 0.001) favored DCB. There were no statistically significant differences observed in all-cause mortality, target limb major amputation, or thrombosis through 36 months. CONCLUSIONS: In a patient-level, IPTW-adjusted pooled analysis of prospective, multicenter pivotal studies, DCB demonstrated significantly higher patency, lower revascularization and MAE rates, and no statistically significant differences in mortality, amputation, or thrombosis vs BMS. This analysis supports DCB use vs BMS in moderately complex femoropopliteal lesions amenable to both treatments.

AIM: More than 5-year clinical outcomes after femoropopliteal (FP) stenting with bare-nitinol stent (BNS) have not yet been unclear. We investigate the long-term patency and mortality following FP stenting with BNS. METHODS: This study was a multicenter retrospective study of a prospectively maintained database. From April 2004 to December 2011, 1824 consecutive patients (2211 limbs) who underwent FP stenting with BNS for de novo lesions were selected and analyzed. Primary endpoint was primary patency which was defined as treated vessel without restenosis and reintervention and its associated factors. RESULTS: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus and dialysis was 60.5% and 23.8%, respectively. Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) accounted for 30.8%. Chronic total occlusion (CTO) was found in 52.7%, and lesion length was more than 20 cm in 22.6%. During the median follow-up of 3.8 years (interquartile range, 1.4 to 7.4 years), 1049 cases lost patency, whereas 355 cases were dead without experiencing loss of patency. The primary patency (95% CI) was estimated to be 74.8%, 47.3% and 29.1% at 1-, 5- and 10-year. On multivariate analysis, female sex, age ≥ 80 years, diabetes, dialysis, CLTI, CTO, arterial calcification, long lesion (ï¼20 cm), and small vessel (≤ 4 mm) were the independent predictors of primary patency after FP stenting. In addition, the prognostic impact of age ≥ 80 years, CLTI, and arterial calcification was significantly attenuated afterwards (Pï¼0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Ten-year patency after BNS implantation for FP disease has been continuously reducing up to 10 years and the prognostic impact of risk factors was changed over time.

BACKGROUND: Drug-coated balloons (DCB) are frequently used to treat femoropopliteal artery disease. However, patency loss occurs in ≥10% of patients within 12 months posttreatment with poor understanding of the underlying mechanisms. OBJECTIVES: The authors sought to investigate the determinants of DCB failure in femoropopliteal disease. METHODS: Data from randomized clinical trials (IN.PACT SFA, MDT-2113 SFA Japan) and 2 prespecified imaging cohorts of the IN.PACT Global Clinical Study were included. Influential procedural characteristics were evaluated by an independent angiographic core laboratory. The primary endpoint was DCB failure (patency loss during follow-up). Additional endpoints were binary restenosis and clinically driven target lesion revascularization. Multivariable analyses evaluated the clinical, anatomical, and procedural predictors of DCB failure. RESULTS: Included were 557 participants with single lesions and 12-month core laboratory-adjudicated duplex ultrasonography. Key clinical characteristics were as follows: mean age 68.8 years, 67.5% male, 87.6% with hypertension, 76.9% with hyperlipidemia, 40.5% with diabetes mellitus, 90.5% in Rutherford Classification Category (RCC) 2 to 3, and 9.5% in RCC 4 to 5. Average length and reference vessel diameter (RVD) were 16.37 cm and 4.66 mm, respectively; 49.7% of lesions were totally occluded. In multivariable analysis, only residual stenosis >30% was associated with patency loss, whereas residual stenosis >30% and smaller preprocedure RVD were associated with increased binary restenosis risk. RCC >3 and residual stenosis >30% were associated with increased 12-month clinically driven target lesion revascularization risk. CONCLUSIONS: Patency loss after DCB treatment was influenced by procedural and clinical factors. Residual stenosis >30%, smaller preprocedure RVD, and higher RCC may be considered predictors of increased risk of DCB failure and its components in femoropopliteal artery disease.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Insulin resistance (IR) has been reported to be an independent predictor of treatment outcome in chronic hepatitis C patients. METHODS: We analyzed the relationship between IR and the outcome of pegylated interferon and ribavirin (PEG-IFN/RBV) therapy, taking into account host factors of body mass index and histological index, such as rate of fatty change and fibrosis. Japanese patients (n = 30; 19 men and 11 women; median age 60.0 ± 8.7 years) with chronic hepatitis C-1b with a high viral load were treated with PEG-IFN-α2b/RBV for 48 weeks. RESULTS: Sustained virological response (SVR) was seen in 60% (18/30) and non-SVR in 40% (12/30). HOMA-IR (homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance index) at the start and at 24 weeks of treatment showed no statistical difference between SVR and non-SVR. Correlation was observed between HOMA-IR and body mass index (r = 0.45, p = 0.013). Among 20 patients, steatosis and fibrosis were assessed by biopsy. Correlation was observed between HOMA-IR and steatosis (r = 0.57, p = 0.0093), whereas no correlation was observed between HOMA-IR and fibrosis. CONCLUSION: A larger prospective study is needed to clarify the role of IR in the outcome of PEG-IFN/RBV combination therapy and hepatic fibrosis in Japanese patients.
