Abstract Background Drug-coated balloon has been widely used to treat In-Stent Restenosis as recommended by ESC/EACT coronary intervention guideline. However, trials of effectiveness of DCB in treating de novo lesions in diabetic patients are limited. This study will highlight the impact of DCB in diabetic patients with only de novo lesions against non-diabetic patients. Aim To compare the outcomes of Paclitaxel Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) in Diabetic and non-diabetic patients with only de novo coronary artery disease. Methods A retrospective, single center study was conducted from January 2016 till December 2018. All diabetic and non-diabetic patients underwent angioplasty to only de novo coronary artery lesions were included in the study. Patients' baseline characteristic, angiographic data, post procedural and 12 months follow-up outcomes including major adverse coronary artery event (MACE), target lesion revascularization (TLR) and myocardial infarction (MI) are compared. Results A total of 1257 patients (726 diabetic and 531 non-diabetic patients) with total 1385 de novo coronary artery lesions (791 lesions in diabetic group and 594 lesions in non-diabetic group) were included in this study. Mean age for non-diabetic group was 57.6±10.6 years and diabetic group was 59.6±9.6 years with male predominance (91.1% in non-diabetic group, n=484 and 79.2% in diabetic group, n=575). Majority of diabetic group has hypertension (83.7%, n=608 vs 58.6%, n+311), chronic renal failure (10.3%, n=75 vs 1.9%, n=10), documented coronary artery disease (55.6%, n=404 vs 47.5%, n=252) and previous coronary angioplasty 39.5%, n=287 vs 28.8%, n=153). Adequate pre-dilatation was done in both groups (98.5%, n=585 in non-diabetic group and 99.4%, n=786 in diabetic group; p=0.000). Mean DCB diameter and length were almost similar in both groups. Mean residual stenosis after DCB was 11.15±16.9% in non-diabetic group and 13.13±13.4% in the diabetic group (p=0.008). 74.6% of non-diabetic group (n=396) and 77.1% of diabetic group (n=560) were on double antiplatelet therapy for 12 months. 86.8% (n=461) of non-diabetic and 88.4% (n=642) of diabetic patients were available for follow up. MACE events were significantly higher (p=0.000) in diabetic group (4.3%, n=31) as compare to non-diabetic group (0.6%, n=3). Target lesion revascularization (TLR) and myocardial infarction (MI) was also significantly higher in diabetic group (TLR 1.4%, N=10 vs 0.6%, n=3, p=0.049; MI 2.6%, n=19 vs 0.4%, n=2, p=0.002). Conclusion Treating de novo coronary lesions in diabetic patients with DCB associated with significantly higher MACE events, target lesion revascularization and myocardial infarction. Diabetic patients appear to have a greater volume of atherosclerotic plaque and increased propensity for atherosclerotic plaque rupture. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Background: Although the use of drug-eluting stents has been shown to limit neointimal hyperplasia, currently available DES may adversely affect re-endothelialization, possibly precipitating late cardiac events. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a microbubble delivery of c-myc antisense peptide in preventing restenosis after coronary stenting in de novo stenosis with intravascular ultrasound. Methods: A BMS was implanted in de novo coronary artery lesions (RD ≥ 2.5- ≤4.0mm; TL ≥ 15- ≤ 30mm in length). Serial intravascular ultrasound analysis were performed in 25 lesions. A dose of 16mg RESTEN-MPTM (AVI BioPharma/Global Therapeutics LLC) was intravenously administered after stenting and again 24 hours later. Results: A total of 50 patients were enrolled, 34 in Essen, 13 in Coburg and 3 in Heidelberg. Before stenting, the MLD and length of stenosis was determined by QCA. 18 Patients had a LAD lesion, 21 LCX, 12 RCA. 84% (43/51) of the lesions were either Type B2 or C lesions. At six month follow-up, angiography with a QCA was performed. Generally the neointimal proliferation was minor and open vessel lumen could be demonstrated during follow-up. Of the 30 patients currently studied at six-months in the IVUS sub-study, six patients required TLR. Late lumen loss by QCA was 0.47±0.09mm. Volume stenosis by IVUS was 26 ± 4 %. Generally the neointima proliferation was minor and open vessel lumen could be demonstrated during follow-up. Summary: Microbubble delivery of c-myc antisense seems to be effective in reducing neointimal tissue proliferation without the problem of late stent thrombosis, because the proliferation seems to be attenuated but not fully blocked.
