Improved Safety and Reduction in Stent Thrombosis Associated With Biodegradable Polymer-Based Biolimus-Eluting Stents Versus Durable Polymer-Based Sirolimus-Eluting Stents in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Abstract: The safety benefit of the biodegradable polymer BES, compared with the durable polymer SES, was related to a significant reduction in very late ST (>1 year) and associated composite clinical outcomes. (Limus Eluted From A Durable Versus ERodable Stent Coating [LEADERS] trial; NCT00389220).

“…In the LEADERS (Limus Eluted from A Durable versus ERodable Stent coating) trial 15 , which compared biodegradable polymer biolimus-eluting stents (BP-BES) with early-generation DP-SES, a lower rate of the primary endpoint MACE among BP-BES treated patients was documented in the subgroup of STEMI at nine months, a finding which was maintained during e 1350 long-term follow-up throughout five years 16 . The present study may extend the potential benefit of biodegradable polymerbased DES among STEMI patients observed with early-generation thick-strut stainless steel DES to newer-generation thin-strut cobalt-chromium DES.…”

“…Studies assessing BP-DES presented non-inferiorly to durable polymer DES, with a hope for decreased inflammatory response post stent implantation, and thus with a hope for faster vessel healing [13][14][15][16]. Moreover, BP-SES implantation in patients with more severe coronary artery disease was characterised by improved clinical outcomes, as compared to implantation of durable DES [17].…”

“…It is important to note that improved clinical outcomes with the everolimus-eluting stent --the most used stent in Nfor et al's study (~59% 32 ) --in multivessel disease, 37 coupled with similarly reported data from the French Left Main Taxus and LEMAX registries that investigated left main stenting with everolimus-eluting stents 38,39 and the known reductions in stent thrombosis of newer-generation DES, [40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47] implies that if newergeneration DES had been used in the SYNTAX trial, there would have been a significant reduction in repeat revascularization and myocardial infarction. It is also plausible that reductions in mortality would have been seen with the newer-generation DES.…”
