Favorable vessel healing after nobori biolimus A9-eluting stent implantation-6- and 12-month follow-up by optical coherence tomography.
Nobori is a novel biolimus A9-eluting stent (BES) coated with a biodegradable polymer only on the abluminal side, which degrades over 6-9 months post-stent deployment. The course of vessel reaction after deployment at these time points remains unclear.. We serially evaluated 28 BES implanted in de novo coronary lesions of 23 patients using optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 6 and 12 months post-stenting. Standard OCT variables, the percentage of stent with peri-strut low-intensity area (PLIA, a region around stent struts homogenously showing lesser intensity than the surrounding tissue, suggesting fibrin deposition or impaired neointima maturation) and that with in-stent thrombi were evaluated. There was a significant, but small increase in neointimal thickness (72 ± 23 to 82 ± 25 µm, P=0.006) from the 6- to the 12-month follow-up, without a significant decrease in minimum lumen area (P=0.30). The incidences of uncovered and malapposed struts were low at 6 months and reduced further at 12 months (3.96 ± 3.97% to 1.51 ± 1.63%, P=0.001, and 0.50 ± 1.84% to 0.06 ± 0.24%, P=0.20, respectively). The frequency of stent with PLIA decreased during the follow-up (57% to 32%, P=0.05) and that with in-stent thrombi also numerically decreased (7% to 0%, P=0.24).. Neointimal hyperplasia was persistently suppressed following BES implantation up to 12 months. Simultaneously, favorable vessel healing was achieved at 6 months without a delaying adverse reaction for up to 12 months.

Randomized comparison of the Nobori Biolimus A9-eluting coronary stent with the Taxus Liberté paclitaxel-eluting coronary stent in patients with stenosis in native coronary arteries: the NOBORI 1 trial--Phase 2.
The newly developed Nobori coronary stent coated with a bioresorbable polymer, polylactic acid, and the antiproliferative agent Biolimus A9 has the potential to reduce restenosis by suppressing neointima formation.. We conducted a randomized (2:1), controlled trial comparing the Biolimus A9-eluting stent Nobori and the paclitaxel-eluting stent Taxus Liberté, in 243 patients (153 Nobori and 90 Taxus) at 29 centers in Europe, Asia, and Australia. Patients with previously untreated lesions in up to 2 native coronary arteries were considered for enrollment. The primary end point was in-stent late loss at 9 months, whereas secondary end points included other quantitative coronary angiography parameters, such as in-segment late loss and the rate of restenosis as well as key intravascular ultrasound parameters. Clinical secondary end points were stent thrombosis and composite of major adverse cardiac events comprising death, myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization. At 9 months, the in-stent late loss was significantly lower in the Nobori group compared with the Taxus group (0.11+/-0.30 mm versus 0.32+/-0.50 mm) reaching both the primary hypothesis of noninferiority of Nobori stent versus Taxus Liberté stent (P<0.001) and the secondary hypothesis of superiority (P=0.001). This finding was confirmed by a significant reduction in binary restenosis from 6.2% in Taxus to 0.7% in Nobori (P=0.02) and neointimal volume obstruction, detected by intravascular ultrasound, from 5.5+/-7.2% in Taxus to 1.8+/-5.2% in Nobori (P=0.01). The major adverse cardiac events rate was 4.6% in the Nobori and 5.6% in the Taxus cohort of patients. The stent thrombosis rate was 0% in the Nobori arm and 4.4% in the Taxus arm.. The NOBORI 1 clinical trial confirmed its primary hypothesis--noninferiority of the Nobori Biolimus A9-eluting stent versus the Taxus Liberté stent in reducing neointimal proliferation. Both stents showed a low major adverse cardiac events rate in the studied population.

Analysis of bifurcation lesions treated with novel drug-eluting dedicated bifurcation stent system: intravascular ultrasound results of the AXXESS PLUS trial.
The aim of this intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) study was to assess the efficacy of the AXXESS Plus stent system for the treatment of bifurcation coronary lesions.. The AXXESS Plus is a novel bifurcation drug-eluting stent, comprised of a self-expanding flare-shaped stent platform and bioabsorbable polymer coating that releases Biolimus A9.. Data were obtained from the AXXESS PLUS trial, a prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized, single-arm study to evaluate safety and efficacy. Six-month follow-up IVUS analysis was available in 49 cases. Volumetric analysis using Simpson's method within the AXXESS stent, and cross-sectional analysis at the ostium of main branch and/or side branch was performed. Impact of bifurcation angle on stent expansion at the carina was also evaluated.. Within the AXXESS stent, neointimal volume obstruction percentage was 2.3% +/- 2.2%, with a minimum lumen area of 7.9 +/- 2.6 mm(2). Lumen area was 5.2 +/- 1.7 mm(2) at main branch ostium, and 4.0 +/- 1.5 mm(2) at side branch ostium. In two cases, incomplete stent apposition was observed at the proximal edge of the AXXESS stent. In one case, a gap between the AXXESS stent and an additional stent was observed. Greater bifurcation angle inversely correlated with smaller stent area at side branch ostium (r = -0.54, P = 0.03) but not at main branch ostium (r = -0.2, P = 0.29).. This novel self-expanding, drug-eluting bifurcation stent demonstrated effective lesion coverage along with significant neointimal suppression equivalent to current generation balloon-expandable drug-eluting stent technology.

In vivo comparison of a polymer-free Biolimus A9-eluting stent with a biodegradable polymer-based Biolimus A9 eluting stent and a bare metal stent in balloon denuded and radiated hypercholesterolemic rabbit iliac arteries.
To evaluate the effect of a polymer-free Biolimus A9-eluting stent [BioFreedom (BF)], compared with that of a biodegradable polymer-based Biolimus A9-eluting stent [BioMatrix Flex (BMF)] and a bare metal stent (BMS) in balloon denuded and radiated hypercholesterolemic rabbit iliac arteries.. Rabbits were fed with 1% cholesterol diet (n = 14) for 14 days, both iliac arteries were balloon denuded and radiated, and then rabbits were switched to 0.15% cholesterol diet. After 4 weeks, BF (n = 8), BMF (n = 8), and BMS (n = 8) were deployed in denuded and radiated areas. Four weeks later animals were euthanized, arterial segments were processed for morphometry.. The neointimal area in vessels implanted with BF stents was significantly less than that seen in vessels implanted with BMS (0.90 mm(2) ± 0.14 vs. 1.29 mm(2) ± 0.23, P <0.01). Percent fibrin and fibrin score were higher with BMF stents compared to BMS (P <0.03 and <0.04) and giant cell number was significantly higher with both BMF and BF stents (P < 0.01 for both). Percent endothelialization was significantly higher and % uncovered struts were lower with BMS compared to either BMF or BF stents (P < 0.05 for both).. This study demonstrates that compared to BMS, BF stents significantly decreased neointimal hyperplasia.

In vivo evaluation of a biolimus eluting nickel titanium self expanding stent with overlapping balloon expandable drug eluting and bare metal stents in a porcine coronary model.
Long lesions and complex vessel anatomy frequently require the use of overlapping stents to treat a lesion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of overlapping the Axxess Biolimus A9 eluting stent (BES) with two of the most commonly used, commercially available drug eluting stents. These stents were compared to BxVelocity bare metal (BMS) stents in a porcine coronary stent-injury model.. Nineteen juvenile farm swine, 25-35 kg in weight, 3-6 months in age were utilised. Each animal received an Axxess stent to their coronary artery as permitted by the individual animal's anatomy. A second stent, either a Cypher, sirolimus eluting stent (SES) or, a Taxus, paclitaxel eluting stent (PES), or a BxVelocity bare metal stent (BMS) were implanted in an overlapped fashion. The animals were then followed for either 28 or 180 days as specified by a randomisation scheme. At the end of each follow-up period, they were euthenised, and the vessels containing the overlapping stents were harvested, processed into histological sections, and analysed. Compared to bare metal stents, overlapped segments using DES exhibited delayed vascular healing compared to both the proximal and distal non-overlap sites at each of the follow-up time point. Overall, in the non-overlap stent segments, SES induced significantly more inflammation and neointimal hyperplasia compared to PES and BMS.. In this study of BMS and two different types of DES overlapped with the Axxess Biolimus A9 eluting stent, we found that while there was a delay in the degree of vascular healing with DES compared to BMS, the specific type of DES that was overlapped with BES did not affect the behaviour of the overlap zone in terms of most of the histomorphometric measures at 28 or 180 days. This was true whether the stent was drug eluting or bare metal. More inflammation with delayed healing was seen in the SES compared to PES and BMS.
