BACKGROUND:

Assessment of the safety and clinical performance of the Sirolimus-Eluting Bioabsorbable Magnesium Scaffold (DREAMS 2G) from the combined analysis of BIOSOLVE- II and -III studies at 36 months. METHODS A total of 184 subjects have been enrolled in the BIOSOLVE-II and -III studies. Clinical follow-ups are scheduled at 1, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months plus 60 months for BIOSOLVE-II. Angiographies are planned at 6 months and voluntarily at 12 and 36 months in BIOSOLVE-II, and 1 angiography is mandatory at 12 months in the BIOSOLVE-III study. Dual antiplatelet therapy is recommended for a minimum of 6 months. The angiographic results are analyzed by an independent core laboratory and all clinical events were adjudicated by an independent clinical events committee. RESULTS A total of 117 men and 67 women with 189 lesions, mean age 65.5 _ 10.8 years, were enrolled at 18 sites in Europe, Brazil, and Singapore. Hypertension was presente in 79.3% of the subjects and 62% had hyperlipidemia. The mean lesion length was 12.6 _ 5.1 mm with a mean reference vessel diameter of 2.70 _ 0.43 mm. At 12 months, 97 patients had available angiographic follow-up. There was no difference in late lumen loss between the 2 studies; in the overall population, it was 0.25 _ 0.31 mm in-segment and 0.39 _ 0.34 mm in-scaffold. The target lesion failure (TLF) rate of the combined population was 3.3%, including 2 cardiac deaths (1.1%), 1 target vessel myocardial infarction (0.6%), and 3 clinically driven target lesion revascularizations (1.7%). The 36-month clinical data of BIOSOLVE- II study are available. Target lesion failure occurred in 8 patients (6.8%) and included 2 cardiac deaths (1.7%), 1 target vessel myocardial infarction (0.9%), and 5 clinically driven target lesion revascularizations (4.3%). No definite or probable scaffold thrombosis was observed. The 36- month clinical visits are ongoing for BIOSOLVE-III patients and data of the combined cohort will be available upon presentation. CONCLUSION The 36-month results of DREAMS 2G, meaning 2 years beyond the completion of resorption, are encouraging on safety and clinical performance standpoints. They will be presented for a larger population of subjects enrolled in the BIOSOLVE-II and -III studies. (AU)
