Mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells after implantation of CD34 antibody-covered sirolimus-eluting COMBO ® stent: assessment with EPC colony-forming assay. Heart Vessels 2025; 40:435-445. [PMID: 39560718 DOI: 10.1007/s00380-024-02483-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2024] [Accepted: 10/30/2024] [Indexed: 11/20/2024]
Abstract
The COMBO® stent is a unique stent on which the CD34 antibody is mounted to capture CD34 + endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and from which sirolimus is eluted to suppress neointimal hyperplasia. The COMBO® stent aims to induce early re-endothelialization and vascular healing and to prevent restenosis. In the clinical setting, however, the effects of the COMBO® stent have not been validated in terms of EPC biology. In this study, we assessed the kinetics of circulating EPCs, not only quantitatively by flow cytometric analysis but also qualitatively by an EPC colony-forming assay, in 25 patients undergoing COMBO® stent implantation. Among all patients, flow cytometric analysis indicated that the number of circulating CD34 + /KDR + EPCs did not change after COMBO® stent implantation compared with baseline (before stent implantation). The EPC colony-forming assay demonstrated that the number of small-type EPC colonies increased on day 2 (3 [2, 9] to 6 [4, 9]/dish, P = 0.026) and that of large-type EPC colonies more prominently increased on day 2 (1 [0, 4] to 5 [1, 10]/dish, P < 0.001) and day 7 (to 2 [1, 7], P = 0.006) after COMBO® stent implantation. Based on the results of optical coherence tomography at 3 months after stent implantation, the patients were divided into two groups: well (uncovered strut ratio < 10%, n = 14) and poor (uncovered strut ratio ≥ 10%, n = 10) stent coverage. Compared with baseline values, the number of large-type EPC colonies increased on day 2 (2.9 ± 0.8 to 7.3 ± 2.0, P = 0.026) and tended to increase on day 7 (6.8 ± 2.0/dish, P = 0.062) after COMBO® stent implantation in the well coverage group, while it did not change in the poor coverage group. Thus, the COMBO® stent might induce mature EPCs in the circulation, which might be associated with subsequent healing processes in vessel sites with stent-induced injury.

Abstract
The increasing incidence of arteriosclerosis has become a significant global health burden. Arteriosclerosis is characterized by the thickening and hardening of arterial walls, which can lead to the narrowing or complete blockage of blood vessels. However, the pathogenesis of the disease remains incompletely understood. Recent research has shown that stem and progenitor cells found in the bone marrow and local vessel walls play a role in the development of arteriosclerosis by differentiating into various types of vascular cells, including endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, and inflammatory cells. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the role of stem and progenitor cells in the pathogenesis of arteriosclerosis, shedding light on the underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic approaches for this disease.

Abstract
It is well known that patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have delayed vessel healing despite accelerated endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) mobilization. The COMBO stent is a unique biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent with an anti-CD34 antibody coating which captures EPC and potentially promotes vessel healing. However, there are limited data about strut tissue coverage at the very short-term period after COMBO stent implantation. This was a prospective study to investigate strut tissue coverage within 1 month after COMBO stent implantation using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Struts fully covered with tissue were defined as covered, and struts with distance from lumen surface longer than strut plus polymer thickness were defined as malapposed. Mean tissue thickness was measured only in apposed struts. A total of 8173 struts of 33 lesions in 32 patients were analyzed at an average of 19.8 ± 4.6 days after COMBO stent implantation. In lesion-level analysis, the rate of covered struts was 89.6 ± 7.2%, the rate of malapposed struts was 0.9 ± 2.0% and mean tissue thickness was 46.8 ± 14.3 µm. In comparison between AMI (n = 12) and non-AMI (n = 21) patients, there were no significant differences in the rate of covered struts (88.4 ± 8.4% vs. 90.2 ± 6.6%, p = 0.48) and mean tissue thickness (46.8 ± 13.7 µm vs. 46.9 ± 15.0 µm, p = 0.98). Multivariable analysis demonstrated that time from implantation to OCT imaging was significantly associated with mean tissue thickness. The COMBO stent had substantial tissue coverage at the very short-term period after implantation even in AMI patients, and follow-up time had an impact on vessel healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COMBO (OrbusNeich Medical, Hong Kong) is a dual-therapy coronary stent featuring sirolimus as antiproliferative drug and an anti-CD34+ antibody coating to attract endothelial progenitor cells favoring rapid stent re-endothelization. The Mega COMBO collaboration aimed to evaluate the performance of the COMBO stent in a large contemporary cohort of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS Patient-level data of subjects undergoing PCI with the COMBO stent from the REMEDEE-Trial, REMEDEE-OCT, HARMONEE, REDUCE, SORT OUT X, REMEDEE-Registry and MASCOT studies were pooled together. The primary endpoint was 1-year target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI) or clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR). Secondary outcomes were the individual components of the primary endpoint and stent thrombosis (ST). Endpoints were evaluated against performance goals based on the EAPCI (the European Association of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) recommendations for new drug-eluting stents. RESULTS A total of 6753 patients (mean age 63.7 ± 11.4 years, 23% women) were included. At 1-year follow-up, TLF occurred in 303 (4.6%) patients. The rates of cardiovascular death, TV-MI, and CD-TLR were 1.3%, 1.8%, and 2.5%, respectively. The rate of definite/probable ST was 0.73%, early ST (<1 month) was 0.48%, while late ST (1-12 months) was 0.26%. The performance goals were met for all of the evaluated endpoints. CONCLUSIONS This large patient-level pooled analysis provides a comprehensive outline of the performance of the dual-therapy COMBO stent. The low rates of primary and secondary endpoints suggest that this stent technology may be a good alternative to other contemporary drug eluting coronary stent platforms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) implants are still associated with thrombogenicity due to insufficient hemocompatibility. Endothelialization of their luminal surface is a promising strategy to increase their hemocompatibility. In this review, we provide a collection of research studies and review articles aiming to summarize the recent efforts on surface modifications of CV implants, including stents, grafts, valves, and ventricular assist devises. We focus in particular on the implementation of micrometer or nanoscale surface modifications, physical characteristics of known biomaterials (such as wetness and stiffness), and surface morphological features (such as gratings, fibers, pores, and pits). We also review how biomechanical signals originating from the endothelial cell for surface interaction can be directed by topography engineering approaches toward the survival of the endothelium and its long-term adaptation. Finally, we summarize the regulatory and economic challenges that may prevent clinical implementation of endothelialized CV implants.

Abstract
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are a heterogeneous group of cells present in peripheral blood at various stages of endothelial differentiation. EPCs have been extensively investigated in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), with controversial findings both on their role in atherosclerosis progression and in the process of neointimal growth after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Despite nearly 2 decades of experimental and clinical investigations, however, the significance of EPCs in clinical practice remains unclear and poorly understood. This review provides an update on the role of EPCs in the most common clinical scenarios that are experienced by cardiologists managing patients with CAD. We here summarize the main findings on the association of EPCs with cardiovascular risk factors, coronary atherosclerosis, and myocardial ischemia. We then discuss the potential effects of EPCs in post-PCI in-stent restenosis, as well as most recent findings with EPC-coated stents. Based on the mounting evidence of the relationship between levels of EPCs and several different adverse cardiovascular events, EPCs are emerging as novel predictive biomarkers of long-term outcomes in patients with CAD.

Incidence Density and Predictors of Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis Among Individuals With Previous Tuberculosis History: A 15-Year Retrospective Cohort Study. Front Public Health 2021; 9:644347. [PMID: 34123987 PMCID: PMC8193499 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.644347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: To date, too little attention has been paid to monitoring and estimating the risk of incident multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) among individuals with a previous tuberculosis history (PTBH). The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of and risk factors for MDR-TB in those individuals. Methods: Between 2005 and 2020, a large, retrospective, population-based cohort study was performed in Hangzhou, China. A multivariable Cox regression model was used to evaluate independent predictors of incident MDR-TB among individuals with PTBH. Results: The incidence density of MDR-TB was 22.6 per 1,000 person-years (95% confidence level and an interval of 20.9–24.3) for individuals with PTBH. The incidence of MDR-TB increased significantly in individuals who • were under 60 years old. • were male. • had a history of direct contact. • came from low-income families. • worked in high-risk occupations. • lived in rural areas. • had a retreatment TB history. • had an unfavorable outcome in their previous treatment (P < 0.05). In addition, we found that the following factors were significantly linked to the MDR-TB risk among individuals with PTBH (P < 0.05): • sociodemographic factors such as the 21–30 and 31–40 year age groups, or a history of direct contact. • clinical factors like passive modes of TB case finding (PMTCF), human immunodeficiency virus infection, unfavorable treatment outcomes, retreated TB history, non-standardized treatment regimens of retreatment TB patients, and duration of pulmonary cavities (DPC). • microbiological factors, such as duration of positive sputum culture. We also found that the 21–30 year age group, low family income, and PMTCF were significantly linked to incident MDR-TB only in males with PTBH, whilst the 41–50 year age group, extended treatment course, and DPC were significantly associated with female MDR-TB only. Conclusion: The incidence of MDR-TB was high, with a higher rate among subjects with a history of direct contact and unfavorable treatment outcomes. There was a gender difference in the incidence density and risk factors of MDR-TB among individuals with PTBH. Long-term monitoring and gender-specific risk-factor modifications should be given to individuals with PTBH.

Nine-month angiographic and 2-year clinical outcomes of the RECOVERY trial: A randomized study of the biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting COMBO dual-therapy stent versus a polymer-free sirolimus-eluting stent in Chinese patients. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2021; 97 Suppl 2:966-975.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We evaluated the safety and efficacy of the novel dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting and endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture COMBO stent. BACKGROUND (Very) late stent thrombosis (ST) and neo-atherosclerosis limit the performance of drug-eluting stents. The capture of EPCs accelerates stent re-endothelialization, thereby potentially decreasing the risk of restenosis and ST. METHODS In total, 440 patients with de novo lesions in native coronary arteries were randomized (1:1) to either receive the COMBO stent (n = 220) or Nano polymer-free sirolimus-eluting stent (n = 220). The primary endpoint was the 9-month angiographic in-segment late lumen loss (LLL). Secondary endpoints included target lesion failure (TLF), a patient-oriented composite endpoint (PoCE), and ST. RESULTS At 9 months, the COMBO in-segment LLL (0.29 ± 0.46 mm) was non-inferior to that of the Nano comparator stent (0.31 ± 0.44 mm; pnon-inferiority < .0001). Clinical outcomes were also similar between the COMBO and Nano stents, with TLF rates of 9.3% and 7.9% (p = .61) at 12 months, and 9.4% and 8.0% (p = .62) at 24 months, respectively. The PoCE rate was 14.8% and 10.6% (p = .19) at 12 months, and 16.0% and 11.3% (p = .16) at 24 months, respectively. Ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization rates were 6.0% and 3.7% (p = .26) at 12 months, and 6.2% and 3.8% (p = .26) at 24 months, respectively. No case of ST occurred in either group. CONCLUSIONS The RECOVERY trial has shown the COMBO stent was effective, meeting the primary non-inferiority angiographic endpoint, and safe, with an overall low rate of clinical events in both stent groups, including no ST for up to 2 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Target lesion failure remains an issue with contemporary drug-eluting stents. Thus, the dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting and CD34+ antibody-coated Combo stent (DTS) was designed to further improve early healing. This study aimed to investigate whether the DTS is noninferior to the sirolimus-eluting Orsiro stent (SES) in an all-comers patient population. METHODS The SORT OUT X (Combo Stent Versus Orsiro Stent) trial, was a large-scale, randomized, multicenter, single-blind, 2-arm, noninferiority trial with registry-based follow-up. The primary end point target lesion failure was a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or target lesion revascularization within 12 months, analyzed using intention-to-treat. The trial was powered for assessing target lesion failure noninferiority of the DTS compared with the SES with a predetermined noninferiority margin of 0.021. RESULTS A total of 3146 patients were randomized to treatment with the DTS (1578 patients; 2008 lesions) or SES (1568 patients; 1982 lesions). At 12 months, intention-to-treat analysis showed that 100 patients (6.3%) assigned the DTS and 58 patients (3.7%) assigned the SES met the primary end point (absolute risk difference, 2.6% [upper limit of 1-sided 95% CI, 4.1%]; P (noninferiority)=0.76). The SES was superior to the DTS (incidence rate ratios for target lesion failure, 1.74 [95% CI, 1.26-2.41]; P=0.00086). The difference was explained mainly by a higher incidence of target lesion revascularization in the DTS group compared with the SES group (53 [3.4%] vs. 24 [1.5%]; incidence rate ratio, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.37-3.61]; P=0.0012). CONCLUSIONS The DTS did not confirm noninferiority to the SES for target lesion failure at 12 months in an all-comer population. The SES was superior to the DTS mainly because the DTS was associated with an increased risk of target lesion revascularization. However, rates of death, cardiac death, and myocardial infarction at 12 months did not differ significantly between the 2 stent groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COMBO drug eluting stent is a novel device with luminal endothelial progenitor cell capture technology for rapid homogeneous endothelialization. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined for sex differences in 1-year outcomes after COMBO stenting from the COMBO collaboration, a pooled patient-level dataset from the MASCOT and REMEDEE multicenter registries. The primary endpoint was 1-year target lesion failure (TLF), composite of cardiac death, target vessel-myocardial infarction (TV-MI), or clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR). Secondary outcomes included stent thrombosis (ST). Adjusted outcomes were assessed using Cox regression methods. The study included 861 (23.8%) women and 2,753 (76.2%) men. Women were older with higher prevalence of several comorbidities including diabetes mellitus. Risk of 1-year TLF was similar in both sexes (3.8% vs. 3.9%, HR 0.92, 95% CI 0.59-1.42, p = .70), without sex differences in the incidence of cardiac death (1.6% vs. 1.5%, p = .78), TV-MI (1.5% vs. 1.1%, p = .32), or CD-TLR (2.0% vs. 2.2%, p = .67). Definite or probable ST occurred in 0.4% women and 1.0% men (HR 0.26, 95% CI 0.06-1.11, p = .069). CONCLUSIONS Despite greater clinical risks at baseline, women treated with COMBO stents had similarly low 1-year TLF and other ischemic outcomes compared to men.

Abstract
PURPOSE The COMBO biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent includes endothelial progenitor cell capture (EPC) technology for rapid endothelialization, which may offer advantage in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). We sought to analyze the performance of the COMBO stent by ACS status and ACS subtype. METHODS The COMBO collaboration (n = 3614) is a patient-level pooled dataset from the MASCOT and REMEDEE registries. We evaluated outcomes by ACS status, and ACS subtype in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-STEMI (NSTEMI) versus unstable angina (UA). The primary endpoint was 1-year target lesion failure (TLF), composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically driven target lesion revascularization. Secondary outcomes included stent thrombosis (ST). RESULTS We compared 1965 (54%) ACS and 1649 (46.0%) non-ACS patients. ACS presentations included 40% (n = 789) STEMI, 31% (n = 600) NSTEMI, and 29% (n = 576) UA patients. Risk of 1-year TLF was greater in ACS patients (4.5% vs. 3.3%, HR 1.51 95% CI 1.01-2.25, p = 0.045) without significant differences in definite/probable ST (1.1% vs 0.5%, HR 2.40, 95% CI 0.91-6.31, p = 0.08). One-year TLF was similar in STEMI, NSTEMI, and UA (4.8% vs 4.8% vs. 3.7%, p = 0.60), but definite/probable ST was higher in STEMI patients (1.9% vs 0.5% vs 0.7%, p = 0.03). Adjusted outcomes were not different in MI versus UA patients. CONCLUSIONS Despite the novel EPC capture technology, COMBO stent PCI was associated with somewhat greater risk of 1-year TLF in ACS than in non-ACS patients, without significant differences in stent thrombosis. No differences were observed in 1-year TLF among ACS subtypes.

Abstract
Objectives This final report from the REMEDEE Registry assessed the long‐term safety and efficacy of the dual‐therapy COMBO stent in a large unselected patient population. Background The bio‐engineered COMBO stent (OrbusNeich Medical BV, The Netherlands) is a dual‐therapy pro‐healing stent. Data of long‐term safety and efficacy of the this stent is lacking. Methods The prospective, multicenter, investigator‐initiated REMEDEE Registry evaluated clinical outcomes after COMBO stent implantation in daily clinical practice. One thousand patients were enrolled between June 2013 and March 2014. Results Five‐year follow‐up data were obtained in 97.2% of patients. At 5‐years, target lesion failure (TLF) (composite of cardiac death, target‐vessel myocardial infarction, or target lesion revascularization) was present in 145 patients (14.8%). Definite or probable stent thrombosis (ST) occurred in 0.9%, with no additional case beyond 3‐years of follow‐up. In males, 5‐year TLF‐rate was 15.6 versus 12.6% in females (p = .22). Patients without diabetes mellitus (DM) had TLF‐rate of 11.4%, noninsulin‐treated DM 22.7% (p = .001) and insulin‐treated DM 41.2% (p < .001). Patients presenting with non‐ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE‐ACS) had higher incidence of TLF compared to non‐ACS (20.4 vs. 13.3%; p = .008), while incidence with STE‐ACS was comparable to non‐ACS (10.7 vs. 13.3%; p = .43). Conclusion Percutaneous coronary intervention with the dual‐therapy COMBO stent in unselected patient population shows low rates of TLF and ST to 5 years. Remarkably, no case of ST was noted beyond 3 years.

One-year clinical outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease treated with COMBO stents: From the COMBO collaboration. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2020; 98:1095-1101. [PMID: 32964556 DOI: 10.1002/ccd.29270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2020] [Revised: 07/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) experience greater ischemic events including clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR). Whether the COMBO biodegradable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent promotes better outcomes in these patients by virtue of endothelial progenitor cell capture technology is unknown. OBJECTIVE We examined one-year outcomes by CKD status from the COMBO collaboration. METHODS The COMBO collaboration was a patient-level pooled dataset from the REMEDEE and MASCOT registries (3,614 patients) of all-comers undergoing attempted COMBO stent PCI. The primary endpoint was one-year target lesion failure (TLF), composite of cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI) or CD-TLR. Secondary endpoints included stent thrombosis (ST). RESULTS The study included 6.4% (n = 231) CKD and 93.6% (n = 3,361) non-CKD patients. CKD patients were older and included more women with greater prevalence of several comorbidities but similar rate of acute coronary syndrome (50.6% vs. 54.5%, p = .26). CKD patients underwent radial PCI less often (56.1% vs. 70.3%, p < .001) and received clopidogrel (78.6% vs. 68.3%) more often (p = .004). One-year TLF occurred in 7.9% CKD vs. 3.7% non-CKD patients, p = .001. CKD patients also demonstrated greater incidence of cardiac death (6.2% vs. 1.2%, p < .0001), TV-MI (2.7% vs. 1.1%, p = .04) but similar CD-TLR (2.7% vs 2.2%, p = .61) and definite/probable ST (1.4% vs. 0.8%, p = .42), compared to non-CKD patients. CONCLUSIONS CKD patients treated with COMBO stents had significantly greater incidence of one-year TLF compared to non-CKD patients driven by cardiac death and to a lesser extent TV-MI but not CD-TLR. They had similar rates of definite/probable ST.

Abstract
Dutch researchers were among the first to perform clinical studies in bare metal coronary stents, the use of which was initially limited by a high incidence of in-stent restenosis. This problem was greatly solved by the introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES). Nevertheless, enthusiasm about first-generation DES was subdued by discussions about a higher risk of very-late stent thrombosis and mortality, which stimulated the development, refinement, and rapid adoption of new DES with more biocompatible durable polymer coatings, biodegradable polymer coatings, or no coating at all. In terms of clinical DES research, the 2010s were characterised by numerous large-scale randomised trials in all-comers and patients with minimal exclusion criteria. Bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) were developed and investigated. The Igaki-Tamai scaffold without drug elution was clinically tested in the Netherlands in 1999, followed by an everolimus-eluting BRS (Absorb) which showed favourable imaging and clinical results. Afterwards, multiple clinical trials comparing Absorb and its metallic counterpart were performed, revealing an increased rate of scaffold thrombosis during follow-up. Based on these studies, the commercialisation of the device was subsequently halted. Novel technologies are being developed to overcome shortcomings of first-generation BRS. In this narrative review, we look back on numerous devices and on the DES and BRS trials reported by Dutch researchers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COMBO drug-eluting stent combines sirolimus-elution from a biodegradable polymer with an anti-CD34+ antibody coating for early endothelialization. OBJECTIVE We investigated for geographical differences in outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the COMBO stent among Asians and Europeans. METHODS The COMBO Collaboration is a pooled patient-level analysis of the MASCOT and REMEDEE registries of all-comers undergoing attempted COMBO stent PCI. The primary outcome was 1-year target lesion failure (TLF), composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI) and target lesion revascularization (TLR). RESULTS This study included 604 Asians (17.9%) and 2775 Europeans (82.1%). Asians were younger and included fewer females, with a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus but lower prevalence of other comorbidities than Europeans. Asians had a higher prevalence of ACC/AHA C type lesions and received longer stent lengths. More Asians than Europeans were discharged on clopidogrel (86.5% vs 62.8%) rather than potent P2Y12 inhibitors. One-year TLF occurred in 4.0% Asians and 4.1% of Europeans, p = 0.93. The incidence of cardiac death was higher in Asians (2.8% vs. 1.3%, p = 0.007) with similar rates of TV-MI (1.5% vs. 1.2%, p = 0.54) and definite stent thrombosis (0.3% vs. 0.5%, p = 0.84) and lower incidence of TLR than Europeans (1.0% vs. 2.5%, p = 0.025). After adjustment, differences for cardiac death and TLR were no longer significant. CONCLUSIONS In the COMBO collaboration, although 1-year TLF was similar regardless of geography, Asians experienced higher rates of cardiac death and lower TLR than Europeans, while incidence of TV-MI and ST was similar in both regions. Adjusted differences did not reach statistical significance. CLINICALTRIAL. GOV IDENTIFIER-NUMBERS NCT01874002 (REMEDEE Registry), NCT02183454 (MASCOT registry).

1-Year Outcomes with COMBO Stents in Small-Vessel Coronary Disease: Subgroup Analysis From the COMBO Collaboration. CARDIOVASCULAR REVASCULARIZATION MEDICINE 2020; 21:1542-1547. [PMID: 32507695 DOI: 10.1016/j.carrev.2020.05.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2020] [Revised: 04/27/2020] [Accepted: 05/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Small vessel diameter is associated with higher risk of target lesion revascularization (TLR) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The COMBO sirolimus-eluting biodegradable-polymer stent has a proprietary anti-CD34 antibody layer to enhance homogeneous endothelialization, which may be advantageous in treating small vessels. OBJECTIVE We examined for differences in 1-year clinical outcomes after PCI by maximum implanted stent diameter from the COMBO collaboration. METHODS The COMBO collaboration (n = 3614) is a patient-level pooled dataset of patients undergoing PCI with COMBO stents in the MASCOT and REMEDEE multicenter registries. Stent diameter was available in 3590 (99.3%) patients. We compared patients receiving COMBO stents <3 mm versus ≥3 mm. The primary endpoint was 1-year target lesion failure (TLF), composite of cardiac death, target vessel-myocardial infarction (TV-MI) or clinically driven TLR. Secondary outcomes included stent thrombosis (ST). Adjusted outcomes were assessed using Cox regression methods. RESULTS The study included 792 (22%) patients with small stents <3 mm and 2798 (78%) patients with large stents ≥3 mm. Small stent patients included more women with lower body mass index and higher prevalence of diabetes but similar prevalence of acute coronary syndrome. Risk of 1-year TLF was similar in small and large stent groups (4.4% vs. 3.8%, HR 1.12, 95% CI 0.74-1.72, p = 0.58). There were no differences in the rates of cardiac death (1.7% vs. 1.5%, p = 0.74), TV-MI (1.4% vs. 1.2%, p = 0.58) or TLR (2.7% vs. 2.1%, p = 0.31). Definite or probable ST occurred in 1.3% of the small stent and 0.7% of the large stent PCI patients, p = 0.14, HR 2.13, 95% CI 0.93-5.00, p = 0.07. CONCLUSIONS One-year ischemic outcomes after COMBO PCI were similar irrespective of stent diameter in this all-comers international cohort.

Abstract
Aims Harmonized Assessment by Randomized Multicentre Study of OrbusNEich’s Combo StEnt (HARMONEE) (NCT02073565) was a randomized pivotal registration trial of the Combo stent, which combined sirolimus and an abluminal bioabsorbable polymer with a novel endoluminal anti-CD34+ antibody coating designed to capture endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and promote percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) site healing. Methods and results Clinically stabilized PCI subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive Combo or everolimus-eluting stents (EES). Between February 2014 and June 2016, 572 subjects with 675 coronary lesions underwent 1-year angiography and fractional flow reserve, with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the first 140 patients. The primary clinical endpoint was non-inferior 1-year target vessel failure (TVF). The primary mechanistic endpoint of EPC capture activity was superior strut coverage by OCT. Target vessel failure occurred in 7.0% Combo (20/287) vs. 4.2% EES (12/285), a 2.8% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) −1.0%, 6.5%] difference, meeting the non-inferiority hypothesis (P = 0.02). There were no cardiac deaths, with one stent thrombosis observed in the EES group. Quantitative coronary angiography late loss with Combo was equivalent to EES. Optical coherence tomography strut coverage at 1 year was superior with Combo vs. EES [91.3% (95% CI 88.7%, 93.8%) vs. 74.8% (95% CI 70.0%, 79.6%), P < 0.001], with homogeneous tissue in 81.2% vs. 68.8%, respectively. Conclusion Combo stent demonstrated non-inferior 1-year TVF and late loss in a randomized comparison to EES, with superior strut-based tissue coverage by OCT as a surrogate of EPC capture technology activity. ![]()

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data of long-term safety and efficacy of the COMBO dual-therapy stent is lacking. REMEDEE Registry evaluated the COMBO stent and showed low clinical event rates up to 3 year. We report the clinical outcomes at 4-year follow-up of this registry. METHODS The REMEDEE Registry is a prospective, multicenter registry with minimal exclusion criteria, evaluating clinical outcomes after treatment with the COMBO stent. A 1000 patients were enrolled between June 2013 and March 2014. Target lesion failure (TLF), defined as a composite of cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI) and target lesion revascularization (TLR), at 4-year follow-up was the primary focus of this analysis. RESULTS Four-year follow-up data were obtained in 97.3% of patients. TLF was present in 117 patients (11.9%). Cardiac death occurred in 45 patients (4.6%), TV-MI was observed in 25 patients (2.6%) and TLR was performed in 73 patients (7.5%). Of the 7.5% TLR at 4 years, 1.5% were beyond 2 years. Definite ST was seen in 7 patients (0.7%) and probable ST in 1 (0.1%). No definite or probable ST occurred between 3 and 4 years follow-up. At 4-year follow-up, 93.1% of patients were free of ischemic symptoms. CONCLUSION This registry showed excellent 4-year results after COMBO stent placement, with no ST beyond 3 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the novel combined sirolimus-eluting endothelial progenitor cell capture Combo stent (OrbusNeich, Fort Lauderdale, FL) at 5 years in the REMEDEE (Randomized study to Evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an abluMinal sirolimus coated bio-Engineered stEnt) trial. BACKGROUND Drug-eluting stents have limited restenosis and reintervention but are complicated by late and very late thrombosis and accelerated neoatherosclerosis. Alternative or adjunctive technologies are needed to address these limitations. METHODS A total of 183 patients with de novo lesions in native coronary arteries were randomized 2:1 to Combo (n = 124) or Taxus Liberté (n = 59). Primary endpoint was 9 month angiographic in-stent late lumen loss and the secondary endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse events (MACE) through 5-year follow-up. RESULTS Compared with Taxus, after 5 years the Combo stent was associated with similar rates of MACE (18.3% vs. 16.9%, p = .89), cardiac death (0.8% vs. 5.1%, p = .07), myocardial infarction (4.1% vs. 3.4%, p = .81), target lesion (9.4% vs. 10.2%, p = .78), and target vessel revascularization (14.4% vs. 11.9%, p = .73). No cases of definite stent thrombosis were reported in the Combo group. The follow-up rate at 5 years was 97.7%. CONCLUSION At 5-year follow-up, the Combo stent remained clinically safe and effective with an overall low rate of MACE comparable to Taxus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) represents a thrombotic milieu and is associated with delayed healing after stenting. The pro-healing combination sirolimus eluting endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture stents encourage early endothelialization after stenting and may be beneficial in the STEMI population. We aim to evaluate the clinical outcomes one year and beyond for patients with STEMI who received the combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI. METHODS/MATERIAL All STEMI patients implanted with combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI from November 2013 to December 2016 were enrolled. The primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF) at in-hospital, one-month, one-year and beyond one year. RESULTS A total of 260 consecutive STEMI patients (283 lesions) were implanted with 313 combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI. Mean age was 56.1 ± 11.2 years and 88.8% were male. One in ten patients (10.9%) had cardiogenic shock on presentation, 7.3% needed mechanical ventilation and 7.7% had intra-aortic balloon pump inserted. A total of 97.9% of lesions achieve final TIMI 3 flow. Device success was seen in all patients. At extended follow up period (median 23.4 months), the clinical outcomes were TLF 8.8%, major adverse cardiovascular events 10.8%, cardiac mortality 4.2%, target vessel myocardial infarction 3.4%, target lesion revascularization 3.8%, and definite stent thrombosis 1.9%. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated acceptable clinical outcomes for an all-comers STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI with the use of combination sirolimus eluting EPC cell capture stents.

Abstract
The COMBO stent is a new, sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable polymer, bioengineered stent. This technology combines the advantages of second-generation drug-eluting stents with the endothelial progenitor cell capture technology mediated by the anti-CD34 antibody coating on the COMBO luminal surface. This dual technology should improve vessel endothelium regeneration and may lay the biological basis for a short dual antiplatelet therapy course. As new evidence is adding on the safety and efficacy of this stent compared with first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents and across a variety of patient populations, aim of this review is to summarize available clinical experience and future perspective with this device.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Combo stent (OrbusNeich, Hoevelaken, the Netherlands) combining an abluminal, bioabsorbable polymer eluting sirolimus with a luminal CD34+ antibody to capture endothelial progenitor cells has been developed to further improve safety and efficacy of coronary interventions. We have designed a large-scale registry-based randomized clinical trial to compare the Combo stent to the Orsiro stent (Biotronik, Bülach, Switzerland) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS The SORT OUT X study will randomly assign 3,140 patients to treatment with Combo or Orsiro stents at 3 sites in Western Denmark. Patients are eligible if they are ≥18 years old, have chronic stable coronary artery disease or acute coronary syndromes, and have ≥1 coronary lesion with >50% diameter stenosis requiring treatment with a drug-eluting stent. The primary end point target lesion failure is a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (not related to other than index lesion), or target lesion revascularization within 12 months. Clinically driven event detection will be derived from validated Danish registries. An event rate of 4.2% is assumed in each stent group. With a sample size of 1,570 patients in each treatment arm, a 2-group large-sample normal approximation test of proportions with a 1-sided 5% significance level will have 90% power to detect noninferiority of the Combo stent compared with the Orsiro stent with a predetermined noninferiority margin of 2.1%. CONCLUSION The SORT OUT X trial will determine whether the dual-therapy Combo stent is noninferior to the Orsiro stent with respect to clinically driven events (ClinicalTrials.govNCT03216733).

Abstract
The blood flow through vessels produces a tangential, or shear, stress sensed by their innermost layer (i.e., endothelium) and representing a major hemodynamic force. In humans, endothelial repair and blood vessel formation are mainly performed by circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) characterized by a considerable expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), CD34, and CD133, pronounced tube formation activity in vitro, and strong reendothelialization or neovascularization capacity in vivo. EPCs have been proposed as a promising agent to induce reendothelialization of injured arteries, neovascularization of ischemic tissues, and endothelialization or vascularization of bioartificial constructs. A number of preconditioning approaches have been suggested to improve the regenerative potential of EPCs, including the use of biophysical stimuli such as shear stress. However, in spite of well-defined influence of shear stress on mature endothelial cells (ECs), articles summarizing how it affects EPCs are lacking. Here we discuss the impact of shear stress on homing, paracrine effects, and differentiation of EPCs. Unidirectional laminar shear stress significantly promotes homing of circulating EPCs to endothelial injury sites, induces anti-thrombotic and anti-atherosclerotic phenotype of EPCs, increases their capability to form capillary-like tubes in vitro, and enhances differentiation of EPCs into mature ECs in a dose-dependent manner. These effects are mediated by VEGFR2, Tie2, Notch, and β1/3 integrin signaling and can be abrogated by means of complementary siRNA/shRNA or selective pharmacological inhibitors of the respective proteins. Although the testing of sheared EPCs for vascular tissue engineering or regenerative medicine applications is still an unaccomplished task, favorable effects of unidirectional laminar shear stress on EPCs suggest its usefulness for their preconditioning.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the long-term safety and clinical efficacy of the Genous endothelial progenitor cell capturing stent (ECS) compared with the TAXUS Liberté paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) in lesions with a high risk of restenosis. BACKGROUND Instead of the use of cytotoxic or cytostatic drugs in drug-eluting stents, a "pro-healing" approach in ECS may overcome impeded healing response due to delayed functional endothelialization of the stent struts. METHODS In the prospective, randomized TRIAS pilot study 193 patients with coronary artery lesions carrying a high risk of restenosis were included (ECS: n = 98, PES: n = 95). The primary focus of this analysis was target vessel failure (TVF) at 5 years. Dual antiplatelet therapy was prescribed for ≥1 month after ECS and for ≥6 months after PES. RESULTS At 5 years follow-up, no significant differences were found in TVF (ECS 24% vs. PES 29%, risk difference 95% confidence interval (RDCI) -17.3% to 7.4%). Between 2 and 5 years after the index procedure, low numbers of TVF were observed in ECS compared with PES (ECS 4% vs. PES 16%, RDCI -20.8% to -2.3%). There was no definite stent thrombosis in ECS compared with four patients in the PES group. CONCLUSION This is the first randomized study providing very long-term clinical efficacy and safety of the ECS in lesions carrying a high risk of restenosis. At 5 years follow-up, TVF rates in ECS group are numerically lower compared with PES due to an increase of events between 2 and 5 years after the index procedure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The dual-therapy stent combines an abluminal biodegradable drug-eluting coating, with a 'pro-healing' luminal layer. This bioengineered layer attracts circulating endothelial progenitor cells that can differentiate into normal endothelium. Rapid endothelialisation of the stent might allow safe short dual antiplatelet therapy. We aim to assess clinical outcomes in patients treated with this novel device at 2-year follow-up. METHODS A total of 1000 patients were included in the REMEDEE Registry to evaluate clinical outcomes after treatment with the dual-therapy stent. This prospective, multicentre, European registry included all-comers patients, which resulted in a high-risk patient population. Target lesion failure (TLF), a combined endpoint consisting of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (tv-MI) and target lesion revascularisation (TLR), at 2-year follow-up was the primary focus of this analysis. Subgroup analyses were performed according to diabetes mellitus (DM), gender, age, acute coronary syndrome, smoking, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, previous stroke, peripheral vascular disease and chronic renal failure. RESULTS TLF at 2 years was observed in 84 patients (8.5%), with 3.0% cardiac death, 1.2% tv-MI and 5.9% TLR. Definite stent thrombosis at 2 years was 0.6%. In the presence of DM or chronic renal failure, a higher TLF was observed. CONCLUSIONS The dual-therapy stent shows favourable clinical outcomes from 12 months onwards. Two years after stent placement, low TLF and very low stent thrombosis rates are observed in this large prospective all-comers cohort study. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01874002; Results.

One year clinical outcomes in patients with insulin-treated diabetes mellitus and non-insulin-treated diabetes mellitus compared to non-diabetics after deployment of the bio-engineered COMBO stent. Int J Cardiol 2016; 226:60-64. [PMID: 27788391 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2016.10.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2016] [Accepted: 10/06/2016] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The COMBO stent is a novel sirolimus-eluting stent with a luminal anti-CD34+ antibody layer to promote vessel healing. No data is currently available on clinical outcomes after treatment with this novel bio-engineered device in diabetic patients. We evaluate clinical outcomes at twelve months after COMBO stent placement in patients without diabetes mellitus (non-DM), patients with non-insulin-treated diabetes mellitus (nITDM) and patients with insulin-treated diabetes mellitus (ITDM). METHODS This study is a pre-specified subgroup analysis of the 1000 patient all-comers REMEDEE Registry. The primary endpoint is target lesion failure (TLF), which is a combined endpoint consisting of cardiac death, target vessel-myocardial infarction (tv-MI) and target lesion revascularization (TLR) at twelve months follow-up. Kaplan Meier method is used with log rank to compare outcomes between groups. RESULTS This subgroup analysis includes 807 non-DM, 117 nITDM and 67 ITDM. Kaplan-Meier estimates for TLF at twelve months are 4.4% in non-DM, 6.8% in nITDM and 20.3% in ITDM, p<0.001 (non-DM vs nITDM p=0.244, non-DM vs ITDM p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study gives the first insight into the impact of insulin-treated diabetes mellitus on clinical outcome of patients treated with the novel COMBO stent. At one year after COMBO stent placement significantly higher rates of target lesion failure are seen in patients with ITDM compared to patients with nITDM and patients without DM.

[PMID: 27478147 DOI: 10.1016/j.blre.2016.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 54] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2016] [Revised: 07/08/2016] [Accepted: 07/12/2016] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
There is a widely recognized need to improve the performance of vascular implants and external medical devices that come into contact with blood by reducing adverse reactions they cause, such as thrombosis and inflammation. These reactions lead to major adverse cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. Currently, they are managed therapeutically. This need remains unmet by the biomaterials research community. Recognized stagnation of the blood-biomaterial interface research translates into waning interest from clinicians, funding agencies, and practitioners of adjacent fields. The purpose of this contribution is to stir things up. It follows the 2014 BloodSurf meeting (74th International IUVSTA Workshop on Blood-Biomaterial Interactions), offers reflections on the situation in the field, and a three-pronged strategy integrating different perspectives on the biological mechanisms underlying blood-biomaterial interactions. The success of this strategy depends on reengaging clinicians and on the renewed cooperation of the funding agencies to support long-term efforts.
