Abstract
Background: Active stents seems to improve the outcome after percutaneous intervention
(PCI) in reducing MACE at 9 months. However no prospective data comparing various
devices are available.
Method: Since March 2003, all patients suitable for stent implantation were randomized
to receive either a sirolimus eluting stent (SES) or a paclitaxel active stent (PAS). Standard
procedures were performed. Aspirin and clopidogrel were initiated for at least one
year. Clinical outcome (MACE incidence at 9 months) is the primary end-point. Control
angiography was performed only when clinically driven.
Results: A total of 102 pts were included (mean age 66±11), (24 female), received a 54
SES and 48 a PAS. Demographic data were comparable with a proportion of 8 pts with
unstable angina. Diabetes was present in 7 pts the SES group and in 6 pts in the PAS
group. Baseline data and follow-up at 3 months are presented in the table below:The incidence
of MACE did not differ after a mean follow-up of 3 ±4 months between the 2
groups. Particularly no pt died in either group. MI did not occur either. Only sub-acute
thrombosis was documented in 2 pts in the PAS group. TLR and TVR were required in 0
pts in the SES group versus 2 pts in the PAS group.
Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the incidence of MACE between sirolimus
and paclitaxel group during this short follow-up. Nine-month follow-up will be available
at time of presentation.
