Abstract
PURPOSE Although the optimal treatment for femoropopliteal (FP) drug-coated balloon (DCB) restenosis lesions remains debatable, the effectiveness of DCB repetition for DCB restenosis has been reported. However, the optimal DCB repetition strategy is not yet established. Thus, this study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of high-dose DCB repetition with those of low-dose DCB repetition for FP DCB restenosis lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center, observational study used a clinical database of 677 consecutive patients undergoing FP endovascular intervention for symptomatic peripheral artery disease between December 2018 and December 2021. Of these patients, 89 cases treated with DCB repetition for FP DCB restenosis lesions were analyzed. The primary endpoint was recurrent restenosis (re-restenosis) and the secondary endpoints were recurrent target-lesion revascularization (TLR), re-occlusion, and major adverse limb events (MALE) obtained using propensity score matching. Interaction analysis was also performed to explore the effects of the baseline characteristics on the association between high- and low-dose DCB with restenosis risk. RESULTS After propensity score matching, high-dose DCB demonstrated a significantly higher freedom from re-restenosis compared with low-dose DCB repetition at 1 year (90.4% vs 40.9%, p=0.034). In addition, freedom from re-TLR and MALE at 1 year was significantly higher in the high-dose DCB group (95.0% vs 53.3%, p=0.025; 95.0% vs 54.7%, p=0.025, respectively). Conversely, freedom rates from re-occlusion were not significantly different between the 2 groups (100.0% vs 84.0%, p=0.99). No baseline characteristics or perioperative outcomes had any significant interaction effect on the association of high-dose DCB versus low-dose DCB with restenosis risk. CONCLUSION For FP DCB restenosis lesions, high-dose DCB repetition offered more favorable outcomes than low-dose DCB repetition. CLINICAL IMPACT This study revealed that for femoropopliteal drug-coated balloon (DCB) restenosis lesions, high-dose DCB repetition obtained more favorable outcomes than low-dose DCB repetition. In addition, there was no significant interaction effect on the association of high- versus low-dose DCB with re-restenosis risk for the baseline characteristics and perioperative outcomes. This finding might be also a reason for choosing high-dose DCB repetition for FP DCB restenosis lesions in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
The drug-coated balloon (DCB) is an emerging percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) device that delivers drugs to diseased vessels to decrease the rate of vascular stenosis. Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that DCBs tend to have both good safety and efficacy profiles, leading to extended application indications in the clinic, including in-stent restenosis (ISR) for metal stents such as drug-eluting stents (DESs), small vascular disease, bifurcation disease, large vascular disease, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and high bleeding risk. However, some previous clinical data have suggested that DCBs performed less effectively than DESs. No studies or reviews have systematically discussed the improvement strategies for better DCB performance until now. Drug loss during the process of delivery to the target lesion and inefficient delivery of the coating drug to the diseased vascular wall are two key mechanisms that weaken the efficiency of DCBs. This review is the first to summarize the key influencing factors of DCB efficiency in terms of balloon structure and principles, and then it analyzes how these factors cause outcomes in practice based on current clinical trial studies of DCBs in the treatment of different types of lesions. We also provide some recommendations for improving DCBs to contribute to better DCB performance by improving the design of DCBs and combining other factors in clinical practice.

Potential Impact of the Paclitaxel dose on Late Lumen Loss in Porcine Peripheral Arteries. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2022; 45:1822-1831.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
Clinical data indicate that the drug density on drug-coated balloons (DCBs) might have a role on treatment effect and durability. The aim of the current study was to investigate inhibition of neointimal formation and potential adverse effects after treatment with a novel double-dose DCB in swine.
Material and methods
A four-week study was performed in peripheral arteries of 12 domestic pigs after vessel injury and stent implantation. The novel double-dose DCB with 6-µg paclitaxel (Ptx)/mm2 balloon surface (1 × 6) was compared to a standard DCB with 3.5 µg Ptx/mm2 (3.5) and uncoated balloons (POBA). Potential adverse effects were stimulated by using three fully overlapping DCBs with 6 µg Ptx/mm2 each (3 × 6). Quantitative angiography, histomorphometry and histopathological analyses were performed.
Results
Higher paclitaxel doses per square millimeter of treated arteries were associated with reduced late lumen loss (LLL) in quantitative angiography 4 weeks after treatment (POBA: 0.91 ± 0.75 mm; 3.5: 0.45 ± 0.53 mm; 1 × 6: 0.21 ± 0.41 mm; 3 × 6: − 0.38 ± 0.65 mm). In histomorphometry, maximal neointimal thickness and neointimal area were the lowest for the 1 × 6 group (0.15 ± 0.06 mm/1.5 ± 0.4 mm2), followed by 3 × 6 (0.20 ± 0.07 mm/1.8 ± 0.4 mm2), 3.5 (0.22 ± 0.12 mm/2.2 ± 1.1 mm2) and POBA (0.30 ± 0.07 mm/3.2 ± 0.7 mm2). Downstream tissue showed histopathological changes in all groups including POBA, in larger number and different quality (e.g., edema, inflammation, vessel wall necrosis, vasculitis and perivasculitis) in the 3 × 6 group, which did not cause clinical or functional abnormalities throughout the study.
Conclusion
Treatment with the double-dose DCB (6 µg Ptx/mm2) tended to increase inhibition of in-stent neointimal formation and to diminish LLL after peripheral intervention in the porcine model compared to a market-approved DCB with 3.5 µg Ptx/mm2.
