Zusammenfassung: | This study was designed to evaluate outcomes of adventitial dexamethasone delivery adjunctive to standard endovascular revascularization in femoropopliteal peripheral artery disease.
Drug-coated balloons and drug-eluting stents improve patency of endovascular interventions with passive diffusion of antiproliferative drugs. Adventitial dexamethasone delivery targets the initial triggers of the inflammatory reaction to injury, thus potentially providing a potent antirestenotic strategy.
The single-arm DANCE (Dexamethasone to the Adventitia to Enhance Clinical Efficacy After Femoropopliteal Revascularization) trial enrolled 262 subjects (283 limbs) with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (Rutherford category 2 to 4) receiving percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) (n = 124) or atherectomy (ATX) (n = 159) in femoropopliteal lesions ≤15 cm in length. A mixture of dexamethasone/contrast medium (80%/20%) was delivered to the adventitia and perivascular tissues surrounding target lesions in all subjects. Thirty-day assessments included major adverse limb events (MALE) and post-operative death. Twelve-month assessments included primary patency, freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR), Rutherford scoring, and walking impairment questionnaire.
At 12 months, primary patency rates in DANCE-ATX and -PTA per-protocol populations were 78.4% (74.8% intent-to-treat [ITT]) and 75.5% (74.3% ITT), respectively. Rates of CD-TLR in DANCE-ATX and -PTA subjects were 10.0% (13.1% ITT) and 11.0% (13.7% ITT), respectively. There were no 30-day MALE + post-operative death events nor 12-month device- or drug-related deaths or MALE.
Direct adventitial delivery of dexamethasone appears to be an effective and safe therapy to prevent restenosis. Randomized studies are needed to further test this possibility.
