Long-term clinical efficacy of drug-coated balloon angioplasty for TASCII C/D femoropopliteal lesions in older patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia: A retrospective study.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of drug-coated drug (DCB) angioplasty for long femoropopliteal lesions in older patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). In this multi-center retrospective study, we enrolled 119 patients with CLTI due to Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASCII) C/D femoropopliteal lesions who underwent DCB angioplasty. A total of 119 patients with 122 limbs (TASCII C = 67, 54.9%; TASCII D = 55, 45.1%) were enrolled. At 36-month follow-up, primary patency, assisted primary patency, secondary patency, and freedom from target lesion revascularization were 47.3%, 49.8%, 59.5%, and 62.7%, respectively, and there was a significant improvement over baseline in Rutherford class (P < .001) and ankle-brachial index measurements (P < .001). Complex target lesions (P = .017) and 1 stenosis-free outflow vessel (P = .001) were risk predictors of freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization. Complex target lesions (P = .044), diabetes (P = .007), and 1 stenosis-free outflow vessel (P = .003) were risk predictors of restenosis. At 2 months, the ulcer healing rate was 96.3% (26/27). At 36 months, the limb salvage and survival rates were 85.8% and 83.3%, respectively. DCB angioplasty were safe and effective for older patients with CLTI attributable to femoropopliteal TASCII C/D lesions.

Project description:PurposeTo summarize the 5-year outcomes of drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) compared to non-DM and intermittent claudication (IC).MethodsThe IN.PACT Global study was a real-world prospective, multicenter, international, single-arm study that enrolled 1535 participants. Post hoc analyses were conducted for participants with DM (n = 560) versus non-DM (n = 842) and CLTI (n = 156) versus IC (n = 1246). Assessments included freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) through 60 months, a composite safety outcome (freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days, and freedom from major target limb amputation and freedom from CD-target vessel revascularization within 60 months), and major adverse events (MAEs).ResultsKaplan-Meier estimates of 60-month freedom from CD-TLR were 67.7% and 70.5% (p = 0.25) in the DM and non-DM cohorts; and 60.7% and 70.5% (p = 0.006) in the CLTI and IC cohorts. The Kaplan-Meier 60-month composite safety outcomes were 65.1% DM versus 68.9% non-DM (p = 0.12); 53.2% CLTI versus 69.1% IC (p < 0.001). Between DM and non-DM, MAE rates were not significantly different through 60 months except for all-cause mortality which was higher in DM (23.8% versus 16.6%; p < 0.001). Participants with CLTI had a higher cumulative incidence of major target limb amputation (6.8% versus 1.1%; p < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (37.4% versus 17.4%; p < 0.001) through 60 months compared to IC.ConclusionsIn this real-world study, 5-year reintervention rates following DCB angioplasty were similar between DM and non-DM, but mortality rates were expectedly higher in patients with DM. Reintervention, mortality, and amputation rates were all higher in CLTI patients compared to IC, which is consistent with the known frailty of this patient population.Level of evidenceLevel 3, Non-randomized controlled cohort/follow-up study.

Project description:IntroductionThe combination of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) and drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for calcified peripheral lesions is associated with promising short-term results. However, data regarding the 12 months performance of this treatment option is missing. This study reports on the outcomes of IVL and DCB angioplasty for calcified femoropopliteal disease.MethodsPatients treated with IVL and DCB for calcified femoropopliteal lesions between February 2017 and September 2020 were included into this study. The primary outcome measure of this analysis was primary patency. Secondary patency, freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR) and overall mortality were additionally analyzed.ResultsFifty-five (n = 55) patients and 71 lesions were analyzed. Most patients presented with long-term limb-threatening ischemia (n = 31, 56%), 47% (n = 26) were diabetics, and 66% (n = 36) had long-term kidney disease. The median lesion length was 77 mm (interquartile range: 45-136), and 20% (n = 14) of the lesions were chronic total occlusions (CTOs). Eccentric calcification was found in 23% of the vessels (n = 16), and circumferential calcium (peripheral arterial calcium scoring system [PACSS] Class 3 and 4) was present in 78% (n = 55) of the treated lesions.The technical success after IVL amounted to 87% (n = 62) and the procedural success to 97% (n = 69). A flow-limiting dissection was observed in 2 cases (3%). Both the rates of target lesion perforation and distal embolization were 1% (n = 1). A bail-out scaffold was deployed in 5 lesions (7%). At 12 months the Kaplan-Meier estimate of primary patency was 81%, the freedom from TLR was 92% and the secondary patency 98%. The overall survival amounted to 89%, while the freedom from major amputation to 98%. The presence of eccentric disease, CTOs, or PACSS Class 4 did not increase the risk for loss of patency or TLR.ConclusionsIn this challenging cohort of patients, the use of IVL and DCB for calcified femoropopliteal lesions was associated with promising 12 months outcomes and an excellent safety profile.

Project description:PURPOSE:To report a post hoc analysis performed to evaluate 1-year safety and efficacy of the IN.PACT Admiral drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions in subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI) enrolled in the IN.PACT Global study ( ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01609296). MATERIALS AND METHODS:Of 1535 subjects enrolled in the study, 156 participants (mean age 71.8±10.4; 87 men) with CLI (Rutherford categories 4,5) were treated with DCB angioplasty in 194 femoropopliteal lesions. This cohort was compared to the 1246 subjects (mean age 68.2±10.0 years; 864 men) with intermittent claudication (IC) treated for 1573 lesions. The CLI cohort had longer lesions (13.9±10.6 vs 11.9±9.4 cm, p=0.009) and a higher calcification rate (76.8% vs 67.7%, p=0.011). Major adverse events [MAE; composite of all-cause mortality, clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR), major (above-ankle) target limb amputation, and thrombosis at the target lesion site], lesion and vessel revascularization rates, and EuroQol-5D were assessed through 1 year. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival, CD-TLR, and amputation events; estimates are presented with the 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS:Estimates of 12-month freedom from major target limb amputation were 98.6% (95% CI 96.7% to 100.0%) in subjects with CLI and 99.9% (95% CI 99.8% to 100.0%) in subjects with IC (p=0.002). Freedom from CD-TLR through 12 months was 86.3% (95% CI 80.6% to 91.9%) in CLI subjects and 93.4% (95% CI 91.9% to 94.8%) in IC subjects (p<0.001). The MAE rate through 12 months was higher in CLI subjects (22.5% vs 10.7%, p<0.001), and CLI patients had poorer overall survival (93.0%, 95% CI 88.9% to 97.2%) than IC subjects (97.0%, 95% CI 96.0% to 97.9%, p=0.011). Health status significantly improved in all domains at 6 and 12 months in both groups. CONCLUSION:Treatment of femoropopliteal disease with DCB in CLI patients is safe through 12-month follow-up, with a low major amputation rate of 1.4%. The rates of MAE and CD-TLR were higher in CLI subjects and reinterventions were required sooner. Additional research is needed to evaluate long-term outcomes of DCB treatment for femoropopliteal lesions in CLI patients.

Project description:PurposeAtherectomy has been reintroduced for debulking calcified atheroma to enhance the efficacy of drug-coated balloons (DCBs); however, its efficacy in severe calcification and related outcomes have not been fully evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of atherectomy and DCB angioplasty for treating femoropopliteal occlusive disease (FPOD).Materials and methodsFrom 2014 to July 2022, 85 limbs in 76 patients with FPOD underwent atherectomy with DCB angioplasty. We evaluated the efficacy of this procedure using primary patency (PP) and clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR)-free survival. PP was defined as the duration of uninterrupted patency without occlusion or a peak systolic velocity ratio more than 2.5 at the target lesion. Lesion calcification was evaluated according to Peripheral Arterial Calcium Scoring System, and Grade 4 was classified as severe.ResultsSeventy-one (84%) cases were male, and 56 limbs (66%) were treated for claudication. Rotational and directional atherectomies were performed in 62 (73%) and 23 limbs, respectively. The improvement in the median ankle-brachial index was 0.36 (interquartile range, 0.25-0.48). Median follow-up duration was 19.4 months. The overall PP and CD-TLR-free survival rates were 77% and 93% at 1 year and 64% and 83% at 2 years, respectively. On multivariable analysis, female sex (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 3.77; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.30-10.87, P=0.014), dialysis (aHR, 4.35; 95% CI, 1.33-13.22, P=0.015), and severe calcification (aHR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.07-5.46, P=0.033) were independent risk factors for poor PP. Dialysis (aHR, 11.07; 95% CI, 3.72-32.92, P<0.001) and severe calcification (aHR, 3.19; 95% CI, 1.15-8.84, P=0.026) were identified as independent risk factors for CD-TLR.ConclusionAtherectomy with DCB angioplasty for FPOD did not work well in female patients, patients with lesions with severe calcification, and patients undergoing dialysis. Therefore, careful monitoring of these patients is crucial for patency loss and the requirement for revascularization. Additionally, for these patients requiring revascularization, surgical bypass may be appropriate for suitable candidates; whereas more proactive conservative management may be justified for claudicants.

Project description:BackgroundPeripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common and highly morbid disease. Although there have been recent advancements in the endovascular modalities to treat PAD, comparisons of these strategies, especially in the popliteal region, remain underinvestigated. The objective of this study was to compare midterm outcomes in patients with PAD undergoing treatment with both novel and SS compared with drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty.MethodsAll patients at a multi-institution health system treated for PAD in the popliteal region from 2011 to 2019 were identified. Presenting features, operative details, and outcomes were included in the analysis. Patients who underwent popliteal revascularization with stents were compared with DCB. SS were compared separately with novel dedicated stents. Two-year primary patency was the primary outcome.ResultsWe included 408 patients (72.7 ± 11.8 years old; 57.1% men) in the analysis. There were 221 (54.7%) patients who underwent popliteal stenting and 187 (45.3%) who underwent popliteal DCB. There were high rates of tissue loss in both groups (57.9% vs 50.8%; P = .14). Stented patients had longer lesions (112.4 ± 3.2 vs 100.2 ± 5.8 mm; P = .03) and higher rates of concomitant superficial femoral artery treatment (88.2% vs 39.6%; P < .01). Chronic total occlusions accounted for the majority of lesions treated (stent 62.4%, DCB 64.2%). Perioperative complications were similar between groups. Primary patency for the stented group was higher at two years than the DCB group (61.0% vs 46.1%; P = .03). When evaluating stented patients only, SS had higher 2-year patency than novel stents in the popliteal segment (69.6% vs 51.4%; P = .04). On multivariable analysis, stenosis, as opposed to chronic total occlusion, was associated with improved patency (hazard ratio, 0.49; 95% confidence interval, 0.25-0.96; P = .04), whereas novel stents were associated with worse primary patency (hazard ratio, 2.01; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-3.73; P = .03).ConclusionsIn a population of patients with severe vascular disease, stents do not have inferior patency and limb salvage rates compared with DCB angioplasty when treating the popliteal region. For patients with advanced vascular disease, and especially tissue loss, stents and DCB are both beneficial when treating popliteal lesions.

Project description:Purpose: To report the 36-month outcomes from the prospective, multicenter, single-arm IN.PACT Global Study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01609296) evaluating the performance of the IN.PACT Admiral drug-coated balloon (DCB) in real-world patients with femoropopliteal occlusive disease. Materials and Methods: The IN.PACT Global Study was conducted at 64 international sites and enrolled 1535 patients with complex lesions, which included bilateral disease, multiple lesions, de novo in-stent restenosis, long lesions, and chronic total occlusions. The predefined full clinical cohort included 1406 patients (mean age 68.6 years; 67.8% men) with claudication or rest pain treated with the study DCB. Mean lesion length was 12.09±9.54 cm; 18.0% had in-stent restenosis, 35.5% were totally occluded, and 68.7% were calcified. Freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) was evaluated through 36 months. The safety composite endpoint was freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days and freedom from major target limb amputation and clinically-driven target vessel revascularization within 36 months. All safety and revascularization events were reviewed by an independent clinical events committee. Results: The Kaplan-Meier estimate of freedom from CD-TLR through 36 months was 76.9%. The composite safety endpoint was achieved in 75.6% of patients. The 36-month all-cause mortality rate was 11.6%, and the major target limb amputation rate was 1.0%. The Kaplan-Meier estimate of freedom from CD-TLR through 36 months was significantly lower in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) compared with claudicants (67.6% vs 78.0%; p=0.003). Lesions affecting both the superficial femoral artery (SFA) and popliteal artery had lower Kaplan-Meier freedom from CD-TLR through 36 months (69.2%) than either isolated SFA (79.7%) or popliteal artery lesions (76.5%; log- rank p<0.001). Predictors of CD-TLR through 36 months included increased lesion length, reference vessel diameter ≤4.5 mm, in-stent restenosis, bilateral disease, CLTI, and hyperlipidemia. Conclusion: DCB angioplasty with the IN.PACT Admiral DCB for femoropopliteal disease in a diverse and complex real-world population is associated with sustained clinical efficacy and low rates of reinterventions at 3 years after the initial procedure.

Project description:ObjectivePrimary nitinol stenting (PNS) and drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty are two of the most common endovascular interventions for femoropopliteal atherosclerotic disease. Although many prospective randomized controlled trials have compared PNS or DCB with plain balloon angioplasty (POBA), no studies have directly compared PNS against DCB therapy. The purpose of this network meta-analysis is to determine whether there is a significant difference in outcomes between PNS and DCB.MethodsThe primary outcome measure was binary restenosis, the secondary outcome measures were target lesion revascularization (TLR) and change in the ankle-brachial index (ABI). Outcomes were evaluated at 6, 12, and 24 months. A literature review identified all randomized controlled trials published before March 2020 that compared DCB with POBA or PNS with POBA in the treatment of native atherosclerotic lesions of the femoropopliteal artery. Studies were excluded if they contained in-stent stenosis or tibial artery disease that could not be delineated out in a subgroup analysis. Network meta-analysis was performed using the network and mvmeta commands in STATA 14.ResultsTwenty-seven publications covering 19 trials were identified; 8 trials compared PNS with POBA and 11 trials compared DCB with POBA. The odds of freedom from binary restenosis for patients treated with DCB compared with PNS at 6 months was 1.19 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63-2.22), at 12 months was 1.67 (95% CI, 1.04-2.68), and at 24 months was 1.36 (95% CI, 0.78-2.37). The odds of freedom from TLR for patients treated with DCB compared with PNS at 6 months was 0.66 (95% CI, 0.12-3.80), at 12 months was 1.89 (95% CI, 1.04-3.45), and at 24 months was 1.68 (95% CI, 0.82-3.44). The mean increase in ABI for patients treated with PNS compared with DCB at 6 months was 0.06 higher (95% CI, -0.03 to 0.15), at 12 months was 0.05 higher (95% CI, 0.00-0.09), and at 24 months was 0.07 higher (95% CI, -0.01 to 0.14).ConclusionsBoth DCB and PNS demonstrated a lower rate of binary restenosis compared with POBA at the 6-, 12-, and 24-month timepoints. When comparing DCB with PNS through network meta-analysis, DCB had a statistically lower rate of a binary restenosis and TLR at the 12-month timepoint. This network meta-analysis demonstrates that both DCB and PNS are superior to POBA, and that PNS is a satisfactory substitute for DCB when paclitaxel is not desirable.
