The aim of this study was to assess, after 2 years of follow-up, the safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of a zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) compared with a paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) in patients with native coronary lesions.
Early drug-eluting stents were associated with a small but significant incidence of very late stent thrombosis (VLST), occurring >1 year after the index procedure. The ZES has shown encouraging results in clinical trials.
The ENDEAVOR IV trial (Randomized, Controlled Trial of the Medtronic Endeavor Drug [ABT-578] Eluting Coronary Stent System Versus the Taxus Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System in De Novo Native Coronary Artery Lesions), a randomized (1:1), single-blind, controlled trial (n = 1,548) compared ZES versus PES in patients with single de novo coronary lesions. Two-year follow-up was obtained in 96.0% of ZES and 95.4% of PES patients. The primary end point was target vessel failure (TVF), and safety end points included Academic Research Consortium-defined stent thrombosis. Economic end points analyzed included quality-adjusted survival, medical costs, and relative cost-effectiveness of ZES and PES.
The TVF at 2 years was similar in ZES and PES patients (11.1% vs. 13.1%, p = 0.232). There were fewer myocardial infarctions (MIs) in ZES patients (p = 0.022), due to fewer periprocedural non-Q-wave MIs and fewer late MIs between 1 and 2 years. Late MIs were associated with increased VLST (PES: 6 vs. ZES: 1; p = 0.069). Target lesion revascularization was similar comparing ZES with PES (5.9% vs. 4.6%; p = 0.295), especially in patients without planned angiographic follow-up (5.2% vs. 4.9%; p = 0.896). The cost-effectiveness of ZES and PES was similar.
After 2 years of follow-up, ZES demonstrated efficacy and cost-effectiveness comparable to PES, with fewer MIs and a trend toward less VLST. (The ENDEAVOR IV Clinical Trial: A Trial of a Coronary Stent System in Coronary Artery Lesions; NCT00217269).
本研究旨在观察随访 2 年后,与紫杉醇洗脱支架(PES)相比,新型佐他莫司洗脱支架(ZES)在治疗原发性冠状动脉病变患者中的安全性、疗效和成本效益。
早期药物洗脱支架与非常晚期支架血栓形成(VLST)的小但显著的发生率相关,这种情况发生在索引手术后 1 年以上。ZES 在临床试验中取得了令人鼓舞的结果。
ENDEAVOR IV 试验(随机、多中心、单盲、平行对照试验),比较 ZES 与 PES 在治疗原发性冠状动脉单病变患者中的疗效。1548 例患者按 1:1 比例随机分组。96.0%的 ZES 患者和 95.4%的 PES 患者获得了 2 年随访。主要终点是靶血管失败(TVF),安全性终点包括学术研究联合会定义的支架血栓形成。经济终点分析包括质量调整生存、医疗成本以及 ZES 和 PES 的相对成本效益。
2 年时,ZES 组和 PES 组的 TVF 相似(11.1% vs. 13.1%,p = 0.232)。ZES 组心肌梗死(MI)较少(p = 0.022),主要是由于围手术期非 Q 波型 MI 较少,1-2 年内迟发性 MI 较少。迟发性 MI 与 VLST 增加相关(PES:6 例 vs. ZES:1 例;p = 0.069)。与 PES 相比,ZES 组的靶病变血运重建率相似(5.9% vs. 4.6%;p = 0.295),特别是在没有计划进行血管造影随访的患者中(5.2% vs. 4.9%;p = 0.896)。ZES 和 PES 的成本效益相似。
随访 2 年后,ZES 显示出与 PES 相当的疗效和成本效益,心肌梗死更少,VLST 趋势更低。
