Doxycycline-Eluting Core-Shell Type Nanofiber-Covered Trachea Stent for Inhibition of Cellular Metalloproteinase and Its Related Fibrotic Stenosis.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we fabricated a doxycycline (doxy)-eluting nanofiber-covered endotracheal stent for the prevention of stent intubation-related tissue fibrosis and re-stenosis. The nanofiber was deposited directly on the outer surface of the stent using a coaxial electrospinning method to form a doxy-eluting cover sleeve. Poly(d,l-lactide) was used as the shell-forming polymer and dedicated drug release-control membrane. Polyurethane was selected as the drug-loading core polymer. The compositional ratio of the core to shell was adjusted to 1:0, 1:2, and 1:4 by changing the electro-spray rate of each polymeric solution and microscopic observation of nanofibers using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the fluorescence microscopy proved core-shell structure of nanofibers. The in vitro release study suggested that the release of doxy could be controlled by increasing the compositional ratio of the shell. The growth of HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells was inhibited by the 10% doxy-containing nanofiber. The real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in HT1080 cells and xenografted tissue models indicated that the doxy-releasing nanofiber inhibited mRNA expression of metalloproteinases (MT1-MMP, MMP-2, and MMP-9). Overall, our study demonstrates that a doxy-eluting core-shell nanofiber stent can be successfully fabricated using coaxial electrospinning and displays the potential to prevent fibrotic re-stenosis, which is the most problematic clinical complication of tracheal stent intubation.

Project description:ImportanceIn-stent restenosis (ISR) is the primary reason for stroke recurrence after intracranial stenting in patients who were treated with a standard bare-metal stent (BMS). Whether a drug-eluting stent (DES) could reduce the risk of ISR in intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) remains unclear.ObjectiveTo investigate whether a DES can reduce the risk of ISR and stroke recurrence in patients with symptomatic high-grade ICAS.Design, settings, and participantsA prospective, multicenter, open-label randomized clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment was conducted from April 27, 2015, to November 16, 2018, at 16 medical centers in China with a high volume of intracranial stenting. Patients with symptomatic high-grade ICAS were enrolled, randomized, and followed up for 1 year. Intention-to-treat data analysis was performed from April 1 to May 22, 2021.InterventionsPatients were randomly assigned to receive DES (NOVA intracranial sirolimus-eluting stent system) or BMS (Apollo intracranial stent system) treatment in a 1:1 ratio.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary efficacy end point was ISR within 1 year after the procedure, which was defined as stenosis that was greater than 50% of the luminal diameter within or immediately adjacent to (within 5 mm) the implanted stent. The primary safety end point was any stroke or death within 30 days after the procedure.ResultsA total of 263 participants (194 men [73.8%]; median [IQR] age, 58 [52-65] years) were included in the analysis, with 132 participants randomly assigned to the DES group and 131 to the BMS group. The 1-year ISR rate was lower in the DES group than in the BMS group (10 [9.5%] vs 32 [30.2%]; odds ratio, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.11-0.52; P < .001). The DES group also had a significantly lower ischemic stroke recurrence rate from day 31 to 1 year (1 [0.8%] vs 9 [6.9%]; hazard ratio, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.01-0.80; P = .03). No significant difference in the rate of any stroke or death within 30 days was observed between the DES and BMS groups (10 [7.6%] vs 7 [5.3%]; odds ratio, 1.45; 95% CI, 0.54-3.94; P = .46).Conclusions and relevanceThis trial found that, compared with BMSs, DESs reduced the risks of ISR and ischemic stroke recurrence in patients with symptomatic high-grade ICAS. Further investigation into the safety and efficacy of DESs is warranted.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02578069.
