Objective: The study sought to compare angiographic and clinical outcomes of new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) versus drug-coated balloon (DCB) in patients with coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR).

Design: Meta-analysis using data from randomised trial found by searches on PubMed, the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov and websites of major cardiovascular congresses.

Setting: Only randomised trials comparing DES with DCB were included.

Participants: Patients with ISR in the included trials.

Interventions: New-generation DES versus DCB.

Outcomes: The angiographic and clinical outcomes including cardiac death, all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularisation (TLR), target vessel revascularisation (TVR), major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and stent thrombosis were investigated.

Results: Five trials including 913 patients were eligible and included. Pooled analysis in angiographic results identified that new-generation DES were associated with higher acute luminal gain (-0.31 mm, 95% CI -0.42 to -0.20, P<0.001) and lower per cent diameter stenosis (risk ratio (RR): 0.28, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.55, P=0.04). DES significantly reduced the risk of TLR (RR: 1.96, 95% CI 1.17 to 3.28, P=0.01) compared with DCB; however, there was no statistical differences for MACE (RR: 1.21, 95% CI 0.67 to 2.17, P=0.53), myocardial infarction (RR: 1.16, 95% CI 0.55 to 2.48, P=0.69) and cardiac death (RR: 1.80, 95% CI 0.60 to 5.39, P=0.29).

Conclusions: Interventions with new-generation DES appear to be associated with significant reduction in per cent diameter stenosis and TLR at short-term follow-up, but had similar MACE, myocardial infarction and cardiac death for patients with coronary ISR compared with DCB. Appropriately powered studies with longer term follow-up are warranted to confirm these findings.

Background: Because of the limitations in new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES), treatments advocating for non-stents with a drug-coated balloon (DCB) is now of great interest. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to testify whether a DCB was more effective and safer than a DES in treating de novo coronary artery disease (CAD).

Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science to obtain high-quality trials comparing DCB with DES for the treatment of de novo CAD.

Calcified plaque modification during percutaneous coronary revascularization.

Prog Cardiovasc Dis

December 2024

The Christ Hospital Heart & Vascular Institute and The Carl and Edyth Lindner Center for Research and Education, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.. Electronic address:

The presence and severity of calcified coronary plaque negatively impacts angiographic and clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Severe coronary calcification is associated with suboptimal stent delivery, deployment, apposition and expansion which can lead to in-stent restenosis and/or thrombosis. Severe coronary calcification is associated with incremental hazard for adverse clinical events, including death, during 5-10 years following PCI despite the use of new generation drug- eluting stents.

Cost-Effectiveness of Three Different New-Generation Drug-Eluting Stents in the Randomised BIO-RESORT Trial at 3 Years.

Pharmacoecon Open

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Thoraxcentrum Twente, Medisch Spectrum Twente, Koningsplein 1, 7512 KZ, Enschede, The Netherlands.

Background And Objective: Evidence on health economic outcomes for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) comparing different contemporary drug-eluting stents (DES) with each other is scarce, as most previous randomised DES trials did not assess such aspects. This prespecified health economic evaluation of the Comparison of Biodegradable Polymer and Durable Polymer Drug-Eluting Stents in an All Comers Population (BIO-RESORT) trial aimed to compare at 3-year follow-up both health effects and costs of PCI with one of three new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease.

Methods: The randomised BIO-RESORT trial assessed in 3514 patients the ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer Orsiro sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and very-thin-strut Synergy everolimus-eluting (EES) stent versus the thin-strut durable polymer Resolute Integrity zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES).

Article Synopsis
  • Patients who need oral anticoagulation and undergo coronary intervention can use a special stent (COBRA PzF) that may lower the need for long-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) while maintaining safety against blood clots.
  • In a study, 996 patients were randomized to receive either the COBRA PzF stent with a short 14-day DAPT or a regular stent with longer DAPT durations of 3 to 6 months.
  • Results showed that the COBRA stent did not significantly reduce bleeding compared to the control group and was not proven to maintain equivalent safety for thromboembolic events, indicating further investigation is needed.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study developed a machine learning model to personalize the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after coronary stent implantation, aiming to reduce bleeding risks associated with prolonged therapy.
  • - The model, tested on data from several clinical trials, indicated that 84.5% of participants could safely receive a shorter 3-month DAPT without significantly increasing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events.
  • - Validation results showed that patients on abbreviated DAPT had a lower incidence of major bleeding compared to those on the standard 12-month DAPT, highlighting the effectiveness of personalized therapy in improving patient outcomes.
