1 REDUCE III Final Results Stenting after Cutting Balloon vs. Stenting after POBA Takahiko Suzuki, M.D. Toyohashi Japan

2 IVUS Findings for Cutting Balloon Angioplasty Dilatation Mechanism

3 IVUS Findings Plaque Reduction Vessel Expansion Pre Pre PA LA PA LA Post Post CB+Stent POBA+Stent Less Vessel Expansion More Plaque Reduction

4 Vessel Expansion Ratio Vessel Expansion Ratio (Post VA / Pre VA) 1.2 P< CB+Stent POBA+Stent Less Vessel Expansion

5 Dilatation Mechanism POBA Vessel stretch Vessel wall damage Plaque shift May lead to restenosis at follow-up

6 Dilatation Mechanism Cutting Balloon Less vessel stretch Less vessel wall damage More plaque compression May lead to a lower restenosis rate at follow-up

7 REDUCE III A prospective, randomized, multi-center trial run in Japan to answer the question: Is Cutting Balloon followed by stenting more effective than POBA stenting for reduction of restenosis?

8 REDUCE III p Prospective, multi-center, randomized study p 2 cohorts: CB + Stent vs. POBA + Stent p Target of 520 patients enrolled 260 patients randomized to each cohort p 38 Japanese centers participated as investigators p Primary Investigators: Tetsu Yamaguchi, M.D. Takahiko Suzuki, M.D. p Angiographic Core Laboratory: Aichi Medical University Angiographic Analysis Core Laboratory (AMAC) Yukio Ozaki, M.D. ; Tatsuya Yasukawa, M.D.

9 Current Analysis Status Enrollment: 523 patients Of the 523 patients 2 patients who were considered to be not suitable for the randomization were excluded from the study, because these two patients had already participated in another study. In the REDUCE III study 521 patients were randomly assigned to CB with stent arm (260 patients) or POBA with stent arm (261 patients). Of the 521 patients, 453 patients (87%) had angiographic follow-up.

30 Conclusions - 1 The high percentage of procedural success proved that Cutting Balloon (CB) angioplasty prior to stenting is a feasible and safe strategy for the treatment of coronary lesions. The similarity between CB stenting and POBA stenting in terms of procedural complications and cardiac events up to 6 months follow-up further supported the safety and efficacy of this strategy.

31 Conclusions - 2 This prospective multicenter randomized study indicated that CB stenting could convey a significantly lower restenosis rate than POBA stenting (11.8% versus 19.1%, p = 0.032), a 38.2% reduction of restenosis rate. CB stenting provided lower residual % diameter stenosis post-procedure than POBA stenting.

32 Conclusions - 3 Multivariate analysis indicated that not CB but POBA use, presence of DM, LAD lesion location and smaller vessel size assessed by IVUS were independent predictors for restenosis at follow-up. CB stenting could still have an impact on PCI practice even in the era of drug eluting stents.

34 Discussions in DES Era Mario, TCT 2003

35 Needs of plaque modification - Restenosis of side branch could not be improved by DES in bifurcation lesion - Therefore, plaque modification by predilatation is required in bifurcation so as to gain good long-term results after DES deployment - Cutting Balloon would be one of the most useful device for pre-dilatation which provides focal force and less vessel injury
