Low long-term event rates are critical for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, and XIENCE™ Stent findings show excellent early outcomes in AMI patients.2 Contributing to these results are several features of XIENCE™ Stent:
The XIENCE™ Stent fluoropolymer exhibits improved anti-inflammatory characteristics compared to other drug-eluting stents (DES).3 This may be a key factor why the XIENCE™ Stent has such impressive safety data within 2 weeks post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among AMI patients. Data show that—compared to immediately post intervention—XIENCE™ Stent reveals significant progression at 2 weeks post PCI2 in terms of:
Post PCI
2 Weeks Post PCI
A large, multicenter, real-world study revealed that the XIENCE™ Stent low clinical event rates at 1 year were sustained through 4 years—in both AMI and non-AMI patients.
XIENCE™ Stent also demonstrates safety among ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, a subgroup of AMI patients. At 30 days, the rate of definite stent thrombosis (ST) with XIENCE™ Stent vs bare metal stents (BMS) was significantly lower: 0.4% vs 1.6%, p=0.02.
At 12 months 98% of patients with STEMI are free of target lesion revascularization (TLR).
The EXAMINATION trial looked at the AMI subgroup of STEMI patients, a subgroup of AMI patients. At both 1 and 5 years XIENCE™ Stents performed better than BMS in an all-comer population.6,7
A meta-analysis examined trials (n=1,581) comparing XIENCE™ Stent second generation DES vs first generation DES—sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES). XIENCE™ Stent conferred significantly lower rates of ST and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 7 years.
One-year clinical outcomes from the XIENCE™ Stent STEMI Registry further revealed that the XIENCE™ Stent was associated with a low incidence of clinical events—including stent thrombosis—even in a high-risk STEMI population.
