Sirolimus-eluting vs Zotarolimus-eluting Stents for Chronic Total Coronary Occlusions

June 3, 2015 updated by: Dr. M.J. Suttorp, R&D Cardiologie

A Randomized Comparison of Sirolimus-eluting Stent Implantation With Zotarolimus-eluting Stent Implantation for the Treatment of Chronic Total Coronary Occlusions. The PRISON III Trial.

Primary intracoronary stent placement after successfully crossing chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) decreases the high restenosis rate at long-term follow-up compared with conventional balloon angioplasty. Several studies have shown the efficacy of sirolimus-eluting stents in selected groups of patients. In the PRISON II study we demonstrated that sirolimus-eluting stents were superior to bare metal stents in CTO. In this prospective randomized trial, sirolimus-stent implantation will be compared with zotarolimus-eluting stent implantation for the treatment of chronic total coronary occlusions. A total of 300 patients will be clinically followed up for 1, 6, 12 months, 2, 3, 4, 5 year with angiographic follow-up at 8 months. Quantitative coronary analysis will be performed by an independent core laboratory. The primary end point is in-segment late luminal loss at 8 month angiographic follow-up.

Detailed Description

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total occlusions (CTO) was traditionally limited by high restenosis rates. Coronary stenting using bare metal stents significantly decreases restenosis in CTO compared to balloon angioplasty alone, but restenosis rates still reach 32-55%. In 200 patients with CTO, randomized in the PRISON I study we demonstrated a restenosis rate of 22% after bare metal stent (BMS) implantation as compared with 33% after conventional balloon angioplasty. During the past few years, sirolimus (rapamycin), a cytostatic macrocyclic lactone with anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative properties, delivered from a polymer-encapsulated stent was shown to almost eliminate the risk of restenosis in selected groups of patients. The drug zotarolimus (ABT-578), a sirolimus analogue, is designed to inhibit the cellular process that leads to restenosis. In the PRISON II study we have randomized 200 patients with CTO to either BMS implantation or sirolimus-eluting stent implantation and we demonstrated a reduction of in-stent binary restenosis from 36% to 7% and in-segment binary restenosis rates from 41% to 11% in favour of the sirolimus eluting stent. However, no data are available on direct comparison of the clinical efficacy, safety, and angiographic outcome of particular drug-eluting stents in patients with CTO and there may be differences between various drug-eluting stents. The PRISON III study is designed to address this issue and provide information about two different drug-eluting stents. It is a prospective randomized, single blinded trial comparing the relative safety, clinical efficacy and angiographic outcomes of sirolimus and zotarolimus-eluting stents in patients undergoing successful recanalization of CTO.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
