Supports Xience V evaluation in complex PCI; extends single-arm registry data but leaves open randomized confirmation.
The Xience VTM everolimus-eluting stent is a new generation drug-eluting stent (DES) that incorporates a low profile cobalt-chromium platform (81 μm) and a highly biocompatible polymer (fluoropolymer), which carries and controls the release of everolimus. Recent studies have demonstrated sustained safety and efficacy of the Xience VTM in the treatment of real-world populations. Our aim was to report the clinical results of 12 months of the BRAVO Brazilian protocol. The BRAVO Registry was a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm, multicenter (25 centers) study that evaluated the late clinical results of 535 minimally selected patients treated with the drug- eluting stent Xience VTM in Brazilian daily practice. Overall, 40% of patients had diabetes, 25% prior myocardial infarction, and 42% presented with acute coronary artery syndrome. The majority of lesions (69%) was highly complex (ACC/AHA type B2 or C). The mean length and the nominal stent diameter were 19.9 ± 5.3 mm and 3.0 ± 0.4 mm, respectively. The angiographic and procedural successes were 99.7 and 98%, respectively. At 12 months, the cumulative rate of major adverse cardiac events, available in 100% of patients, was 5.6% (cardiac death: 1.3%; acute myocardial infarction: 3.0%; revascularization of the target lesion: 2.2%). Stent thrombosis occurred in 5 patients (0,9%), and only 1 case was reported between 6 and 12 months. The drug-eluting stent Xience VTM demonstrated sustained safety and efficacy up to 12 months in the treatment of complex coronary lesions in patients from daily practice. O stent liberador de everolimus XIENCE V® é um stent farmacológico de nova geração que incorpora uma plataforma de cromo-cobalto de baixo perfil (81 μm) e um polímero de elevada biocompatibilidade (fluoropolímero), o qual carreia e controla a liberação do fármaco everolimus. Estudos recentes demonstram segurança e eficácia sustentadas do dispositivo XIENCE V® no tratamento de populações da prática clínica. Nosso objetivo foi reportar resultados clínicos de 12 meses do protocolo brasileiro BRAVO. O registro BRAVO foi um estudo prospectivo, não randomizado, de braço único, multicêntrico (25 centros), que avaliou os resultados clínicos tardios de 535 pacientes minimamente selecionados, tratados com o stent farmacológico XIENCE V®. Cerca de 40% dos pacientes tinham diabetes, 25% infarto agudo do miocárdio prévio e 42% apresentaram-se com síndrome coronária aguda. A maioria das lesões (69%) era de elevada complexidade (ACC/AHA tipo B2/C). As médias da extensão e do diâmetro nominais dos stents foram, respectivamente, 19,9 ± 5,3 mm e 3,0 ± 0,4 mm. Os sucessos angiográfico e de procedimento foram de 99,7% e 98%, respectivamente. Aos 12 meses, a taxa cumulativa de eventos cardíacos adversos maiores, disponível em 100% dos pacientes, foi de 5,6% (morte cardíaca: 1,3%; infarto agudo do miocárdio: 3,0%; revascularização da lesão-alvo: 2,2%). Já a trombose de stent ocorreu em cinco pacientes (0,9%), sendo reportada apenas uma ocorrência entre 6 e 12 meses. O stent farmacológico XIENCE V® demonstrou segurança e eficácia sustentadas ao final de 12 meses no tratamento de lesões coronárias complexas em pacientes da prática diária.

BRAVO study investigators (2015) conducted an observational in Complex coronary lesions (n=535). Xience V everolimus-eluting stent was evaluated on Major adverse cardiac events. Treatment with the Xience V everolimus-eluting stent in a real-world population with complex coronary lesions resulted in a 12-month major adverse cardiac event rate of 5.6%.
