First peripheral drug-eluting stent clinical results from China: 1-year outcomes of the Zilver PTX China study. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:877578. [PMID: 36237908 PMCID: PMC9551216 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.877578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The benefit of using the Zilver PTX drug-eluting stent (DES) in superficial femoral artery (SFA) lesions has been demonstrated in multiple clinical studies. This prospective, multicenter study evaluated the 1-year safety and effectiveness of the DES for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions in a Chinese patient population. Methods Patients with a single de novo or restenotic SFA lesion ≤140 mm and a Rutherford classification of 2 to 4 were treated with the DES. The primary endpoint was primary patency assessed by duplex ultrasound at 1-year. Secondary endpoints included adverse events, event-free survival (EFS), and freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR). Clinical outcomes included Rutherford classification, ankle-brachial index (ABI), and the walking impairment questionnaire (WIQ). Results In this study, 178 patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease were enrolled at nine institutions in China. The average lesion length was 79.0 ± 48.6 mm (range 14.8–245.4 mm) and 50.0% of lesions were total occlusions. The 1-year primary patency rate was 81.9%. Covariate analysis revealed that lesion length (p < 0.01) was the only significant factor for patency. No paclitaxel-related adverse events or amputations were reported. The 1-year rate for EFS was 94.9% and freedom from TLR was 95.5%. Through 1-year, treatment with the DES resulted in statistically significant improvement in ABI and WIQ scores compared with pre-procedure (p < 0.001). Clinical improvement of at least 1 Rutherford class was achieved in 142 of 174 patients (81.6%). Conclusion This study showed promising short-term results for the treatment of SFA lesions with Zilver PTX DES in Chinese patients. Unique identifier ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT02171962.

Cilostazol effectiveness in reducing drug-coated stent restenosis in the superficial femoral artery: The ZERO study. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0270992. [PMID: 35797395 PMCID: PMC9262206 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0270992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2021] [Accepted: 06/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Drug-eluting stents (DESs) play an important role in endovascular therapy (EVT) for femoropopliteal (FP) lesions. Cilostazol improves patency after bare-metal nitinol stent (BNS) implantation for femoropopliteal lesions. This study aimed to establish whether cilostazol is effective in improving the patency of DESs and determine whether BNS or DESs with or without cilostazol are more effective in improving the 12-month patency after EVT for FP lesions. Materials and methods In this prospective, open-label, multicenter study, 85 patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease due to de novo FP lesions were enrolled and treated with DESs with cilostazol from eight cardiovascular centers between April 2018 and May 2019. They were compared with 255 patients from the DEBATE SFA study, in which patients were randomly assigned to the BNS, BNS with cilostazol, or DES groups. The primary endpoint was the 12-month patency rate using duplex ultrasound (peak systolic velocity ratio < 2.5). This study was approved by the ethics committee of each hospital. Results The 12-month patency rates for the BNS, BNS with cilostazol, DES, and DES with cilostazol groups were 77.6%, 93.1%, 82.8%, and 94.2%, respectively (p = 0.007). The 12-month patency rate was higher in the DES with cilostazol group than in the DES group (p = 0.044). In small vessels, the DES with cilostazol group had a higher patency rate than the DES group (100.0% vs. 83.4%, p = 0.023). Conclusions DES with cilostazol showed better patency than DES alone. Cilostazol improved patency after EVT with DES in FP lesions and small vessels. Clinical trial registration University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (no.

Clinical Implications of Phenotypes of Hemodialysis Patients With Central Venous Occlusion or Central Venous Stenosis Defined by Cluster Analysis. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:901237.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the association between clinical factors of patients with central (superior vena cava, brachiocephalic, or subclavian) venous occlusion or central venous stenosis (CVO/CVS) and the difficulty of interventional recanalization as well as the duration of postoperative patency. Methods A total of 103 hemodialysis patients with CVO/CVS treated with endovascular treatment were enrolled. The two-step cluster analysis was selected to differentiate the cases into distinct phenotypes automatically. Differences in characteristics, the difficulty of interventional recanalization, and the duration of postoperative primary patency time between the two clusters were statistically compared. Results The 103 cases were divided into distinct two clusters by the two-step cluster analysis with 48 (46.6%) in cluster 1 and 55 (53.4%) in cluster 2. Compared to cluster 2, patients in cluster 1 have a higher proportion of blunt stump, side branches, occlusion lesions >2 cm, calcification, or organization. Moreover, the above four factors were, in turn, the most critical four predictors distinguishing 103 patients into two clusters. The remaining six factors were, in turn, occlusion located in the superior vena cava (SVC), duration of central venous catheterization (CVC), lesion location, vessel diameter, number of CVC, and previously failed lesion. Of the four most important factors, with the exception of occlusion lesions exceeding 2 cm, there were significant differences in the length of procedure time between the groups grouped by the remaining three factors. And there was a significant difference in the primary patency rate between the group with blunt stump and the group without blunt stump and also between the group with occlusion lesions ≥ 2 cm and the group with occlusion lesions <2 cm. The operation time of cluster 1 was longer than that of cluster 2. In terms of postoperative patency time, the primary patency time was significantly longer in the patients of cluster 2 compared with cluster 1 (P = 0.025). Conclusion Patients were divided into distinct two clusters. CVO/CVS of patients in cluster 1 was more challenging to be recanalized than that in cluster 2, and the primary patency time was significantly longer in the patients of cluster 2 compared with cluster 1. Blunt stump, side branches, occlusion lesions exceeding 2 cm, and calcification or organization are the four most critical predictors distinguishing 103 patients into two clusters.

Abstract
The demand for endovascular therapy is increasing in an aging society, but the problem of restenosis in the chronic phase has not been resolved in femoropopliteal occlusive disease. Few studies have compared drug-coated balloon (DCB) and scaffold devices in chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the superficial femoral artery (SFA). This study aimed to compare DCBs with scaffold in patients with CTO of the SFA. This was a single-center, retrospective study. From June 2018 to December 2019, we compared 31 patients and 33 limbs treated with DCBs and 44 patients and 45 limbs treated with a stent or stent-graft (scaffold) for SFA CTO. The primary endpoint was 12-month primary patency. The secondary endpoints were 12-month freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) and 12-month freedom from re-occlusion. The DCBs were performed using an intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided approach or a non-loop wire technique. Baseline characteristics were similar between the groups. An intraluminal approach was performed to use all DCBs. The bailout stent rate was 0% in the DCB group. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that rates of 12-month primary patency tended to be higher in the DCB than in the scaffold group (92.7 vs. 76.6%, p = 0.073) and that freedom from CD-TLR also did not differ significantly between the two groups (96.8 vs. 86.3%, p = 0.17). Kaplan-Meier analysis also showed that the 12-month freedom from re-occlusion rate was significantly less in the Scaffold than in the DCB group (96.8 vs. 79.3%, p = 0.045). Therefore, we concluded that in treatment for CTO of the SFA, a DCB with intraluminal angioplasty without bailout stenting was less re-occlusion compared with scaffold.

Abstract
Objectives The aim was to report the mid-term outcomes of Jetstream™ rotational atherectomy device in complex femoropopliteal lesions. Methods Between November 2016 and April 2018, 55 patients who were treated with rotational atherectomy and adjunctive balloon angioplasty due to complex femoropopliteal lesions were retrospectively scanned. Results Fifty-five patients who underwent endovascular treatment with rotational atherectomy for chronic total occlusive femoropopliteal lesions were included in the study. Technical success rate was 100%. The mean age was 63 (±10.5) years. The cohort included 25 (45.4%) diabetics and 45 (81.8%) current smokers. The mean length of the lesions was 20.8 ± 11.2 cm. Chronic total occlusive lesions were detected in 35 (63.6%) patients, and mixed-type steno-occlusive lesions were detected in 20 patients (36.4%). Thirty-three (60%) lesions were moderate or severely calcified. Adjunctive balloon angioplasty was performed with plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) on 31 (56.4%) patients and with drug-coated balloon angioplasty on 24 (43.6%) patients. After adjunctive balloon angioplasty, flow limiting dissection was observed in 20 (36.3%) patients, and 17 (30.9%) patients needed stent implantation. The Kaplan–Meier analysis method estimated that the overall primary patency rates at 12 and 24 months were 81.8% and 70.9%, respectively. Overall, secondary patency rates at 12 and 24 months were 94.5% and 80%. No statistically significant differences of 24-month primary patency and secondary patency rates were found between patients treated with drug-coated balloon angioplasty and POBA as an adjunctive therapy, even though primary patency (83.3% vs. 61.3%, p = .06) and secondary patency (91.7% vs. 71%, p = .56) rates of drug-coated balloon angioplasty were slightly higher than POBA. Patients with claudication had better primary patency (90.5% vs. 58.8%, p = .001) and secondary patency (100% vs. 67.6%, p = .004) rates than patients with critical limb ischemia at 24 months. Significant differences between patients who did and did not stop smoking were found in 24-month primary patency (57% vs. 88%, p = .007) and secondary patency (67% vs. 96%, p = .007). Six patients underwent unplanned amputation. There were eight (14.5%) mortalities during follow-up. Conclusions Rotational atherectomy with adjunctive balloon angioplasty has satisfactory technical success rates and mid-term outcomes. As an adjunctive method, there was no difference between drug-coated balloon angioplasty s and POBAs. Smoking cessation is always the first-step treatment to improve mid-term patency results. Patients with critical limb ischemia have worse patency results compared to the patients with claudication.

Abstract
AIM High levels of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] are a risk factor for peripheral artery disease (PAD). However, the relationship between Lp(a) levels and the severity of femoropopliteal lesions in patients with PAD has not been systematically studied. This study aimed to assess the impact of Lp(a) levels on angiographic severity of femoropopliteal lesions in patients with PAD. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a single-center database including 108 patients who underwent endovascular therapy for de novo femoropopliteal lesions and measured the Lp(a) levels before therapy between June 2016 and September 2019. Patients were divided into low Lp(a) [Lp(a) <30 mg/dL; 77 patients] and high Lp(a) [Lp(a) ≥ 30 mg/dL; 31 patients] groups. Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) II classification, calcification [referring to the peripheral arterial calcium scoring system (PACSS) classification], and lesion length were compared between the groups. RESULTS The prevalence of TASC II class D (13% vs 38%, P<0.01) and severe calcification (PACSS 4) (6% vs 23%, P=0.02) was significantly higher and the lesion length longer (123±88 mm vs 175±102 mm, P<0.01) in the high Lp(a) group than in the low Lp(a) group. In multivariate analysis, Lp(a) ≥ 30 was an independent predictor for the prevalence of TASC II class D (HR=3.67, 95% CI 1.27-10.6, P=0.02) and PACSS 4 (HR=4.97, 95% CI 1.27-19.4, P=0.02). CONCLUSION The prevalence of TASC II class D and severe calcification of femoropopliteal lesions was higher in patients with high Lp(a) than those with low Lp(a).

Abstract
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New-generation bare-metal nitinol (BNS) and drug-eluting stents have improved long-term outcomes in patients undergoing endovascular therapy for femoropopliteal lesions. Furthermore, cilostazol reduces in-stent restenosis (ISR) after first-generation BNS implantation for femoropopliteal lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 255 patients with femoropopliteal lesions treated at 25 cardiovascular centers. Patients were randomly assigned to the BNS group (Misago stent implantation without cilostazol), BNS with cilostazol group (Misago stent implantation with cilostazol), or drug-eluting stents group (Zilver PTX stent implantation without cilostazol). Primary end point was 1-year restenosis noted using duplex ultrasound (peak systolic velocity ratio, >2.0). Secondary end point was major adverse limb events (limb-related death, target lesion revascularization, major amputation, and major bleeding). During the 1-year follow-up, 12 patients (4.7%) died and 237 (92.9%) had relevant ultrasound findings. The 1-year ISR rate did not differ significantly among the BNS, BNS with cilostazol, and drug-eluting stents groups (28.4% versus 12.2% versus 21.0%; P=0.052). Although the 1-year ISR rate was significantly lower in the BNS with cilostazol group than in the BNS group, it was similar to that in the drug-eluting stents group ( P=0.16). Major adverse limb event was significantly higher in the BNS group (16.9% versus 6.5% versus 6.3%; P=0.034); however, target lesion revascularization and major bleeding were similar (9.7% versus 5.1% versus 3.6%; P=0.25, 4.8% versus 1.2% versus 2.4%; P=0.37, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Misago stent implantation with cilostazol showed a comparable 1-year ISR rate with Zilver PTX. Cilostazol reduced the 1-year ISR rate after endovascular therapy when used with new-generation BNS. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL: http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/ . Unique identifier: UMIN 000010071.

Abstract
Early 80s male with intermitted claudication underwent endovascular therapy for atherosclerotic stenosis at left external iliac artery and middle of superficial femoral artery. Patient also had chronic atrial fibrillation, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. After stent deployment for external iliac artery lesion, a short superficial femoral artery lesion was performed with angioplasty using drug-coated balloon. The drug-coated balloon angioplasty resulted in 50% residual stenosis with linear dissection; however, provisional stenting was not performed as decent ante-grade blood flow allowed 10 extra minutes. Medication involved ongoing use of aspirin 100 mg and rivaroxaban 15 mg. Angiography post 3 months from index procedure showed external iliac artery and superficial femoral artery patency and healing of intimal dissection at superficial femoral artery lesion was estimated by intravascular ultrasonography. In angioscopy findings, red thrombus was seen in dissection cavity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pattern of DCB restenosis and associated outcomes in facing complex femoropopliteal lesions remain uncertain. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from dual centers in Taiwan on patients who underwent treatment with DCBs for femoropopliteal lesions between 2013 and 2016. The restenosis pattern was categorized by the index-treated length. Clinical outcomes and time to DCB restenosis were retrospectively analyzed. Cox proportional hazards model identified restenosis predictors. RESULTS We recruited a total of 164 patients (91 men; median age 73 years) into the final analysis. The mean lesion length was 204.0 ± 109.2 mm. Of them, 45% total occlusions, 28% severe calcification and 15% in-stent restenosis were treated. Fifty-five patients have DCB restenosis (28 focal and 27 diffuse-occlusive patterns) over a 55-month follow-up. The median restenosis time emerged as a bimodal pattern with a significant difference between the diffuse-occlusive and focal restenosis group (225 vs. 484 days, P = 0.01). The 1-year patency rate after reintervention for DCB restenosis also was different between both restenosis group (29% vs. 65%, P = 0.017). The anticipated timing of escape for diffuse-occlusive or focal restenosis was 687 and 1068 days, respectively. Independent factors were lesion length (P = 0.049) for diffuse-occlusive restenosis and lumen gain of the popliteal artery for focal restenosis (P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated time to DCB failure emerged as a bimodal pattern of distribution and associations of restenosis pattern to subsequent outcomes after the repeated intervention. Exemption from late catchup restenosis required 3-year observation instead of the 1-year mark for conventional treatment.

Abstract
AIMS The crossing of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is the key step for an endovascular treatment. The Ocelot system is a novel device that combines a steerable drilling tip with optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology. It provides intraluminal imaging to help the crossing of CTOs in the femoropopliteal segment. Aim of the study was to determine early and midterm results after recanalization with this device. METHODS AND RESULTS During a period of 16 months, 84 CTOs were treated using the Ocelot system and prospectively registered. The primary end points were technical success and the primary and secondary patency of the lesion. Risk factors associated with early and midterm results were also analyzed. In all, 58 (69.0%) lesions were treated for intermittent claudication, 26 (31.0%) for critical limb ischemia, 34 (40.5%) were classified as Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus II D lesions, and 22 (26.2%) showed severe calcifications. The technical success rate was 72.6%. During 36 months of follow-up (mean 25.9), there were 10 reinterventions. The primary and secondary patency at 36 months were 54.2% and 68.1%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In our experience, the Ocelot system would appear to be a safe and effective tool for increasing the applicability of endovascular techniques. However, the midterm results did not show drastic improvement.

Abstract
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.

Effect of an NSE PTA balloon in experimental lesion models. Cardiovasc Interv Ther 2016; 33:35-39. [PMID: 27628104 DOI: 10.1007/s12928-016-0430-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2016] [Accepted: 09/07/2016] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
The effect of a scoring balloon has been reported. However, it is difficult to compare the effect of conventional vs. scoring balloons on the same lesion. Therefore, we assessed the scoring effect of the NSE with and without elements. The endpoints of this study were scoring grade in the eccentric agar model and crack incidence in the eccentric plaster model after ballooning. The scoring grade consisted of 5 levels: (1) almost none, (2) only at the surface, (3) cleavage in the depth of less than two-thirds, (4) cleavage in the depth of two-thirds or more, and (5) collapse. The scoring grade was assessed by blinded reviewers. To estimate the incidence of crack after ballooning for plaster model, balloon expansion pressure was recorded when plaster was broken. In the eccentric agar model, the overall scoring grade was significantly higher in the NSE group compared with the NSE without elements group (p = 0.002). The scoring grade at a diameter of 4.0 mm was significantly higher in the NSE group (p = 0.018). The scoring grade at nominal pressure was significantly higher in the NSE group (p = 0.016). In the eccentric plaster model, the crack incidence of the calcified region was overall significantly higher in the NSE group than that in the NSE without elements group (63 vs. 42 %, p = 0.04). A crack was found at calcification severity ≥180° in the NSE group (84 vs. 56 %, p = 0.014). Our result suggested that NSE exhibited a higher scoring effect in both models compared with conventional balloons.
