Abstract Background New generation drug eluting stents (DES) have improved target vessel failure as compared with early generation DES and bare metal stent. Contemporary several new generation DES are different each other regarding strut thickness and drug and polymer type. A little is known about which stent induces a more favorable vascular healing at follow up. Purpose In this study, we compared the vascular healing at 8-month follow up by optical coherence tomography (OCT) between 4 different kinds of new generation DES. Methods We enrolled 112 consecutive patients (121 lesions) who underwent PCI using 4 kinds of new generation DES including biodegradable-polymer everolimus-eluting stents (BP-EES), biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SES), durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES) and durable-polymer zotarolimus-eluting stents (DP-ZES) and who underwent 8-month follow up angiogram and OCT between July 2016 and April 2018. We compared the OCT parameters including percentage of covered struts, uncovered struts, well-apposed and uncovered struts, malapposed strut and mean neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) thickness between them. Results BP-EES consisted of 29 lesions, BP-SES consisted of 25 lesions, DP-EES consisted of 38 lesions and DP-ZES consisted of 29 lesions. A total of 734 frames with 5163 struts in BP-EES, 481 frames with 4214 struts in BP-SES, 783 frames with 6119 struts in DP-EES and 583 frames with 4708 struts in DP-ZES were analyzed. As shown in a table, mean NIH thickness was significantly higher in BP-EES and BP-SES. Thus, we compared the OCT parameters between durable-polymer (DP) group including DP-ZES and DP-EES and biodegradable-polymer (BP) group including BP-EES and BP-SES. The percentage of uncovered struts was significantly lower and mean NIH thickness was significantly higher in BP group than DP group. Results of OCT parameters BP-EES (n=29) BP-SES (n=25) DP-EES (n=38) DP-ZES (n=29) P value BP group (n=54) DP group (n=67) P value Covered struts (%) 89.5±13.6 92.4±8.6 85.5±17.5 85.0±17.7 0.29 90.9±11.6 85.3±17.4 0.08 Uncovered struts (%) 8.8±10.8 7.1±8.7 14.5±17.5 15.0±17.7 0.14 8.0±9.9 14.7±17.4 0.03 Well-apposed and uncovered struts (%) 7.9±9.9 5.9±7.7 11.7±13.1 12.3±14.0 0.15 7.0±8.9 11.9±13.4 0.04 Malapposed struts (%) 0.8±1.6 1.3±2.2 2.7±5.8 2.7±4.7 0.33 1.0±1.9 2.7±5.3 0.07 Mean NIH thickness (μm) 102±57 121±48 78±28 88±33 <0.01 111±53 82±31 <0.01 Conclusion The present OCT study demonstrated that delayed neointimal healing characterized by the presence of uncovered struts and lower mean NIH thickness was less common in BP group than DP gruop. Biodegradable-polymer may be more favorable than durable-polymer from the point of view of vascular healing.

Introduction: The polymers releasing the drug of first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) may induce allergic reactions and inflammation, resulting in late-acquired stent malapposition (LASM) with uncoverage of struts, and risk of stent thrombosis. The incidence and predictors of LASM in DES with different polymers designed to improve biocompatibility are unknown. Methods: Fifty patients with 59 lesions of interest were randomized to elective treatment with Everolimus-eluting stents (EES; n=17, 20 lesions)], Zotarolimus-eluting stents (ZES; n=15, 19 lesions), and Biolimus-eluting stents (BES; n=18, 20 lesions) and underwent optical coherence tomography after implantation and after one year. Results: After implantation 29 early stent malappositions (ESM) were documented in 29 lesions (49% of lesions), distributed to 11 lesions treated with EES (55%), 11 with ZES (58%), and 7 with BES (35%; n.s.). After one year 14 late stent malappositions (LSM) in 14 lesions (24%) were detected; nine ESM persisted (EPSM) after one year (1 EES, 6 ZES, 2 BES), whereas 20 ESM resolved. In addition, 9 LASM were documented (5 LASM in early well-apposed Stents, 4 LASM in Stents which also have EPSM). LASM was present in 7 hydrophilic polymer-coated ZESs (37%), in 2 fluoropolymer-coated EESs (10%), and in none of the biodegradable polymer-coated BESs (p=0.003). Independent predictors of LASM were the vessel treated (RCA as vessel with high motion; p<0.022) and type of polymer (biodegradable or permanent; p<0.035). Conclusion: The incidence of ESM and EPSM were similar, whereas the incidence of LASM was different in second-generation DES with different polymers. Biodegradable polymer prevented LASM, stent locations with significant vessel movement (RCA) enhanced LASM.

Abstract Background Over the last decade, drug-eluting stents (DES) have undergone substantial modifications with thinner struts and more biocompatible durable polymer (DP) or biodegradable polymer (BP). In DP-based DES, after drug elusion has been completed, DP remnants may trigger of local inflammatory vascular reactions and promote delayed healing, leading to accelerated neoatherosclerosis (NA). Thus, BPs have been developed to reduce the above-mentioned risks. Recently, poor strut coverage and in-stent NA are increasingly recognized the cause of late stent failure, but it is unclear whether BPs can reduce the incidence of NA and the poor stent coverage as compared to DPs. Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of NA and the stent coverage using optical coherence tomography (OCT) between the DPs and the BPs. Methods Between July 2016 and April 2018, 127 consecutive patients with new-generation DES who underwent 8-month follow up OCT imaging were enrolled. Patients were divided into the two groups: DP group who had the new-generation durable polymer everolimus-eluting and zotarolimus-eluting stents and BP group who had the new-generation biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting and everolimus-eluting stents. We compared patient characteristics including hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus and 8-month follow up OCT findings including NA, uncovered struts and malapposed struts between the two groups. Results The DP group comprised 64 patients (50.4%. The incidence of NA, uncovered struts and malapposed struts were similar between the two groups (DPs vs BPs, 1.56% vs 7.94%, P=0.11; 7.80% vs 5.88%, P=0.16 and 2.76% vs 2.01%, P=0.43, respectively) (table). The other parameters were also similar between the two groups. Table 1 DP group (n=64) BP group (n=63) P value Hypertension 44 (68.8%) 50 (79.4%) 0.2251 Dyslipidemia 39 (60.9%) 37 (58.7%) 0.8573 Diabetes mellitus 25 (39.1%) 30 (47.6%) 0.3731 8 month OCT follow up findings   Neoatherosclerosis 1 (1.6%) 5 (7.9%) 0.1147   Uncovered struts 7.8% (2.8–20.4) 5.9% (0.7–16.7) 0.1616   Malapposed struts 0.2% (0–2.8) 0% (0–2.8) 0.4392 Conclusions The new-generation DP based-DES may have similar effects on vascular response compared to the new-generation BP-based DES during 8-month follow-up period.
