Final 5-Year Results in Randomized Japanese Patients Implanted With a Thin-Strut, Bioabsorbable, Polymer-Coated, Everolimus-Eluting SYNERGY Stent (From the EVOLVE II Study).


ABSTRACT: Background: SYNERGY is a thin-strut, platinum-chromium metal alloy stent with an ultrathin abluminal everolimus-eluting bioabsorbable polymer. EVOLVE II was a global randomized controlled trial that enrolled 1,684 patients treated with either a SYNERGY or durable polymer PROMUS Element Plus (PE+) everolimus-eluting stent, including 155 patients from Japanese sites. This substudy analyzed 5-year clinical outcomes in the Japanese and non-Japanese cohorts. Methods?and?Results: Patients aged ?18 years with ?3 native coronary artery lesions (reference vessel diameter ?2.25-?4.00 mm; length ?34 mm) in ?2 major vessels were randomized 1 : 1 to receive either SYNERGY (n=74 patients in Japan) or PE+ (n=81 patients in Japan). Five-year target lesion failure (TLF) was observed in 8.3% SYNERGY- and 11.2% PE+-treated patients (P=0.54). There were no cardiac deaths, and rates of target lesion revascularization and myocardial infarction were comparable between treatment arms. One patient in the SYNERGY arm experienced a very late definite stent thrombosis (ST); no ST occurred in the PE+ arm (P=0.30). Despite differences in baseline clinical and lesion characteristics, the 5-year TLF rates were not significantly different in SYNERGY-treated patients either in (8.3%) or outside (14.8%) Japan (P=0.14). Conclusions: In Japanese patients with coronary artery disease, SYNERGY showed comparable efficacy to PE+, with low rates of adverse events over 5 years. Similarly, 5-year clinical outcomes were favorable in Japanese vs. non-Japanese patients implanted with SYNERGY.
