4 Medicine Changes!!! Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults There is no evidence to support continued use of specific LDL treatment targets. Will IMPROVE-IT change GDL s again?

5 PCI vs CABG

6 PCI for LM PCI of LM attractive: Large diameter vessel Proximal location BUT.. Lots of LM disease involves the bifurcation (high risk of restenosis) Many patients have multivessel CAD: potential survival benefit with CABG FREEDOM and SYNTAX TRIALS

7 SYNTAX SCORE: Risk Stratify

8 MACCE to 5 Years Left Main Subset N=705 TAXUS (N=357) CABG (N=348) 1-2 years* 13.7% vs 15.8% 7.5% vs 10.3% P=0.44 P=0.22 Cumulative Event Rate (%) Before 1 year* years* 5.2% vs 5.7% P= years* 6.4% vs 8.3% P= % P= years* 5.9% vs 5.5% P= % Months Since Allocation Cumulative KM Event Rate ± 1.5 SE Serruys PW et al.

12 Bottom Line Benefit with CABG over PCI is limited to fewer repeat revascularizations, at a cost of more strokes High SYNTAX score patients (>33) benefit from CABG

13 I d rather die than have a stroke What kind of stroke will I have? A mini-stroke or a Big One???

14 Most patients prefer repci to the risk of CVA

15 ACC/AHA Guidelines for Revascularization of Left Main Disease: Pre-2009 I IIa IIb III CABG PCI Kushner et. Al. JACC Vol 54. No 23, 2009 Post-2009 I IIa IIb III CABG PCI

16 ACC/AHA Guidelines IIa LMCA PCI is reasonable in pts with class III angina and >50% LM stenosis who are not eligible for CABG IIb Stenting of the LMCA as an alternative to CABG may be considered in pts with anatomic conditions that are associated with a low risk of PCI procedural complications and clinical conditions that predict an increased risk of adverse surgical outcomes ACC/AHA 2009 Focused Updates for STEMI and PCI. Circulation 2009;120:

17 ACC/AHA/SCAI GDLS 2009 focused update of PCI GDL Class IIb, LoE B recommendation the best case for PCI as an alternative to CABG for LM CAD is in ostial and midbody lesions without additional multivessel disease Routine angiographic follow-up after LM PCI omitted from guidelines

18 PCI vs CABG for Left Main v Is PCI really non-inferior or superior to CABG in Syntax Score <33 pts with LM ds. for the events that really matter (death, stroke, or MI)? v Can PCI outcomes be improved by..? Use of better DES? (e.g. XIENCE V) Use of better pharmacotherapy (e.g. bivalirudin) IVUS/FFR? (used in <10% in SYNTAX) More frequent staging? (14% in SYNTAX) Avoidance of routine angiographic FU*? v Can CABG outcomes be further improved? *Currently not recommended by the ACC/AHA Guidelines. Circulation 2009;120:

23 What is Novel About EXCEL? Use of 2 nd Generation DES

24 What is Novel About EXCEL? Optimal PCI and CABG Technique

25 EXCEL Evaluation of Xience Prime versus CABG for Effectiveness of Left Main Revascularization Inclusion Criteria Clinical and anatomic eligibility for both PCI and CABG by heart team consensus Silent ischemia, stable angina, unstable angina or recent MI Significant LM disease by heart team consensus - Angiographic DS 70%, or - Angiographic DS 50% to <70% with - a markedly positive noninvasive study, and/or - IVUS MLA <6.0 mm2, and/or - FFR <0.80

26 EXCEL: PCI Procedure Highlights DAPT and statin pre-loading: Required IVUS: Strongly recommended to guide LM PCI FFR: Strongly recommended to assess borderline lesions

27 EXCEL: PCI Procedure Highlights Distal LM bifurcation: Provisional stenting recommended Hemodynamic support: Permitted, not usually required Staging: Liberal use permitted (<2 weeks preferred) Routine FU angiography: Not permitted

28 EXCEL: Status Given financial considerations, the sponsor has decided to cap enrollment at 1900 pts; the sponsor and PIs remain blinded With 2600 pts randomized, the trial had 90% power to demonstrated noninferiority between PCI and CABG for the primary endpoint of death/cva/mi at median FU 3 years With 1900 pts randomized, the trial has 80% power for the primary endpoint All 1900 pts have been randomized

29 NOBLE: Study Design 1200 pts with unprotected left main 26 EU sites With 3 additional non-complex lesions (excludes length >25 mm, CTO, 2-stent bifurcation, calcified or tortuous vessels) R PCI (Biomatrix BES) (N=600) CABG (N=600) Clinical follow-up: Through 5 years

31 What Have I Learned from Treating Left Main Bifurcation Lesion in the Last 20 Years? Seung-Jung Park, MD, PhD Professor of Medicine, University of Ulsan College of Medicine Heart Institute, Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Korea

32 Adjusted Hazard Ratios of MACCE Between CABG and PCI for LM Disease (N=2360) Outcomes of PCI Are Getting Better Over time! P for Interaction = 0.002and Better DES. Mainly due to more IVUS/FFR HR (95% CI) P value BMS ( ) 0.33 ( ) <0.001 Early DES ( ) 0.53 ( ) Late DES ( ) 1.01 ( ) PCI better 1 10 CABG better New Data from ASAN MAIN registry, 2014

33 Treatment for Distal LM Bifurcation Leson

34 Distal LM Stent Technique Less 2 stent approach P= Percent (%) Before Routine Use of FFR After Routine Use of FFR Two stent Single Stent cross over

35 Restenosis at 2 year Pooled Analysis in 403 Patients with LM PCI Using SES % Ostial and Shaft Bifurcation PCI Stent Crossover (provisional second stent) Is Clearly Better! 3/67 14/222 29/114 Single Two stent Kang et al. Circ Cardiovasc Interv 2011;4:

38 LCX Jailing, After Stent Crossover Positive FFR, Significant Jailing

39 Kissing Balloon Inflation! 3.5 mm Balloon Balloon Dilatation With Ryujin 2.0 mm 2.0 mm Balloon

40 After Kissing Balloon Inflation Negative FFR!

41 Angiographic Narrowing May Not Be Functional Narrowing! % 42% 7% (DS>50%) (FFR<0.80) Kang SJ, Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions. 2014;83(4):

42 If You Want To Treat LCX Ostium After Single Stent into LM/LAD Consider FFR First! Or DAC: Consider a Nordic Bifurcation approach and only stent if TIMI 2 flow. Ignore How Cx Looks

43 Salvage Branch with bail-out stenting Reverse Mini crush T-stent Cullotte Final Kissing Balloons important What is main branch?.most choose LM into LAD and salvage Cx. Some few do reverse

44 An approach for bifurcational lesions when using 2 stents as intention to treat Bifurcational lesion with no disease proximal to the bifurcation or very short left main V-Stent Pre Cross Section Bifurcational lesion with main branch disease extending proximal to the bifurcation and side branch which has origin with about 90 angle Short-Mini Crush/culotte T-Stent Post Pre Bifurcational lesion with main branch disease extending proximal to the bifurcation and side branch which ha origin with about 60 angle Post Pre Post

45 Chen, SL, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol Extra Step Compared to Mini-Crush Step 1: stenting side branch (mini crush) Step 2: balloon crush (step crush) Step 3: first kissing balloon inflation Step 4: stenting main vessel Step 5: final kissing balloon inflation

46 LM PCI: Key Points Heart Team approach Never ad hoc Be skilled at bifurcation stenting You may be comfortable doing LM PCI your new hospital may not Your partner s eyes and advice--critical Double scrub if possible EXCEL and NOBLE trials
