What are DES?
**Drug-eluting stents (DES) were
introduced into clinical practice in
2002, in order to reduce restenosis
that occurred in 15–25% of patients
receiving bare-metal stents (BMS)
**They are stents loaded with drugs
that interfere with pathways in the
process of inflammation and
neointimal proliferation.

The DES euphoria
“drug”eluting
“just” bare metal
Why DES?
DES has been introduced to
overcome the problem of instent restenosis
In-stent restenosis (ISR)
defined by a 50% reduction in
the in-stent luminal diameter
results from primarily neointimal
proliferation.
Instent Restenosis
Restenosis
Occurs in 30-40% of patients by 6
months after PTCA
Occurs in 20-30% of patients by 6
months after PTCA with BMS
Restenosis is thought secondary to
combination of vessel wall remodeling
and neointimal hyperplasia with
smooth muscle cell and matrix
proliferation
Elastic recoil and thrombosis may
also play a role
Restenosis
Elastic recoil: after balloon deflation, the
large number of elastic fibers in the tunica
media cause a mechanical collapse.
Neointimal proliferation (NI): formation of
an inner layer at the site of injury,
composed of cells and ECM on the intimal
surface
Negative remodeling: constriction of the
vessel by the formation of a fibrotic scar
within the adventitia.
Durability (restenosis) has been problematic until the
introduction of Drug Eluting Stents

Preventing Restenosis
DES
Drug-eluting stents (DES) can deliver
anti-proliferative therapy to the target
area without systemic toxicity
inhibit neointimal hyperplasia
Combined with biologic polymers,
drugs are loaded onto the stent which
allows a sustain release
Clinical Trials – DES v. BMS
***Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were defined as death,
acute myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization (TLR).
Clinical Trials – DES v. BMS
Restenosis: angiographic evidence of 50% decrease in
luminal diameter
Clinical Trials – DES v. BMS
Clinical Trials – DES v. BMS
Clinical Trials – DES v. BMS
The overall occurrence of MACE was
reduced from 19.9% to 10.1% (p<0.001)
and adjusted rates of angiographic
restenosis from 31.7% to 10.5% (p<0.001)
with DES.
Furthermore, there was no difference in
overall rates of mortality (DES: 0.9%, BMS:
1.2%, p = 0.92), or stent thrombosis (DES:
1.0%, BMS: 0.9%, p = 0.44) between DES
and BMS groups.
FDA Approves!
Cypher & Taxus
The CYPHER Sirolimus-eluting Coronary Stent is
indicated for improving coronary luminal diameter
in patients with symptomatic ischemic disease due
to discrete de novo lesions of length ≤ 30 mm in
native coronary arteries with reference vessel
diameter of ≥2.5 mm to ≤3.5 mm.
The TAXUS Express Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary
Stent System is indicated for improving luminal
diameter for the treatment of de novo lesions ≤28
mm in length in native coronary arteries ≥2.5 to
≤3.75 mm in diameter.
Stent Wars: SES v. PES
There is no difference in mortality or
myocardial infarction between the
DES.
There is a significant improvement in
angiographic results in SES group.
There appears to be a significant
increase in stent thrombosis in PES
group at 30 months.

•National registry 1989-2007 with all
procedures in Sweden.
•In the data base:
294 000 procedures, 123 000 PCI
118 000 stents ( > 37 000 DES)
Complete long-term follow up by merging

Conclusions
During 4 years follow-up the DES-group compared to the
BMS-group, with adjustment for differences in available
background characteristics, showed:
no overall significant difference in mortality or myocardial
infarction
a significantly lower event rate during the initial 6 months
a significantly higher event rate after 6 months which is
compensated by the lower early event rate
An relative reduction of restenosis by almost 50%
corresponding to an absolute reduction of 3.5%

Conclusions
• Public debate regarding the risks of stent
thrombosis with DES was associated with a rapid
and sustained decline in the proportion of NSTEMI
patients undergoing PCI who received a DES – an
“off label” indication
• The magnitude and duration of this temporal
change in DES use is still being assessed

Main Coronary Artery
Current (AHA/ACC) and (ESC) guidelines
consider the presence of a stenosis in the
unprotected left main coronary artery
(LMCA) a class IIa or IIb indication,
respectively, for PCI if coronary artery
bypass grafting (CABG) is not a viable
option
Moreover, according to the AHA/ACC
guidelines, in cases when the patient is
eligible for CABG, PCI has a class III
indication.
Recently, encouraging results have
been reported in some observational
registries with elective DES
implantation in LMCA, with a 1-year
mortality of 0% to 5% in these
patients.

Chaim Lotan MD
TCT 04 – Drug Eluting Stent Summ
SICTO – Study Design
25 patients (72% males, aged 63.1±9.8 years)
were treated between March and July 2003 with
the CYPHERTM Sirolimus-eluting stent after
successful balloon angioplasty and IVUS
examination.
Clinical follow-up at 30 days, 6, 12, 18 and 24
months. Repeat angiography and IVUS at 6
months follow-up
SICTO – Conclusions
In this feasibility study the CYPHERTM
Sirolimus-eluting stent was very safe and
effective in the treatment of CTO, with 4% TLR
and 12% TVR, compared to historical data with
bare stents
(30-50% restenosis/reocclusion rates).
The CYPHERTM Sirolimus-eluting stent
significantly inhibits intimal hyperplasia in CTO.
These preliminary data confirm real life data
in larger database with CTO subpopulation
(e.g. e-Cypher : n=415; MACE=3.1% [6 months]).

TROPICAL Conclusions
In the treatment of in-stent restenosis, sirolimus-eluting
stents were highly efficacious
Compared with the previous gold standard in the
treatment of in-stent restenosis, brachytherapy,
sirolimus-eluting stents reduced angiographic
restenosis and need for target lesion revascularisation
substantially
The risk of peri-interventional infarction and of stent
thrombosis was as low as expected with bare stents

ISAR-DESIRE Trial:
Conclusions
In patients with in-stent restenosis, a strategy based
on DES (Cypher or Taxus) is superior to plain balloon
angioplasty for the reduction of recurrent restenosis.
But the results of Cypher and Taxus for in-stent
restenosis are less remarkable than those for de-novo
lesions suggesting the need for modified doseregimen.
In this high-risk subset for restenosis, the use of
sirolimus-eluting stents (Cypher) has the potential of a
greater benefit than the use of paclitaxel-eluting stents
(Taxus)

Saphenous Vein Grafts
PCI of saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) is
associated with worse outcomes and a high
incidence of in-stent restenosis.
The benefit of DES in this lesion subset has not
been formally evaluated because SVG lesions
have been excluded from randomized trials and
the available data come only from observational
studies.
Moreover, the higher local prothrombotic
conditions in SVG and the expected delay in
endothelial healing after DES are claimed as
possible drawbacks because both can lead to
higher rates of acute, subacute, and late
thrombosis.
Saphenous Vein Grafts
Both SES and PES have been evaluated in small
registries reporting low restenosis rates (10%)
without any increased risk of stent thrombosis
