"We found that the TVF endpoint was 7.3% in the angiography-guided
group compared to only 4.0% in the IVUS-guided group, which is a 45%
reduction in the hazard rate,"
Indeed, serious clinical or adverse events did not differ between the PCI
and medical therapy groups: At 2 years, four (0.5%) vs 10 (1.3%) patients
died and nine (1.1%) vs 13 (1.7%) had an MI.
In addition, the authors noted that in the post hoc as-treated analysis, the
durability of preventive PCI seemed to be more sustained with cobalt-
chromium everolimus-eluting metallic stents than with bioresorbable
vascular scaffolds.
However, Butler told attendees, there was a significant 23% relative risk
reduction in first HF hospitalization, and for total HF hospitalizations (first
and recurrent HF hospitalizations combined) there was a highly significant
33% relative risk reduction.
In patients with baseline LDL levels below 100 mg/dL, there was no effect
of CSL112 on the primary composite endpoint at any timepoint.
However, in patients with baseline LDL levels above 100 mg/dL, CSL112
was associated with significant reductions in the primary composite
endpoint at all timepoints (Table 1).
