Abstract

ObjectivesSirolimus coated balloon (SCB) is a potential treatment option for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). There is currently no long term clinical data for this novel treatment for PAD. We present the 3 year results of the first-in-human study of MagicTouch PTA SCB for treatment of PAD for both femoropopliteal and below the knee arteries (BTK). MethodsXTOSI pilot study is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, single centre trial evaluating MagicTouch PTA SCB for symptomatic PAD. Assessments through 3 years included freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR), freedom from major amputation, amputation free survival (AFS), overall survival and ulcer free status. ResultsAt 3 years, the overall freedom from CD-TLR was 84.4%, freedom from major amputation was 86.1%, AFS was 63.3%, overall survival was 63.3% and ulcer free status in remaining survivors with intact limbs was 100%.For femoropoliteal lesions, at 3 years, the freedom from CD-TLR was 92.9%, freedom from major amputation was 93.3%, AFS was 70% and overall survival was 70%. For BTK lesions, at 3 years, the freedom from CD-TLR was 77.8%, freedom from major amputation was 81.0%, AFS was 58.6% and overall survival was 58.6%. ConclusionsSCB in the XTOSI pilot study showed promising clinical results sustained to 3 years and no long term safety concerns were raised. Randomized trials are currently ongoing to investigate the safety and efficacy of SCB for treatment of PAD.
