CHICAGO—In patients requiring stenting of coronary arteries larger than 3 mm in diameter, no significant differences were found among sirolimus-eluting, everolimus-eluting and bare-metal stents with respect to the rate of death or MI, according to the late-breaking BASKET-PROVE trial, which was presented today at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions. However, the trial was technically underpowered.

4. BASKET-PROVE
Hypothesis
⇒ In large vessels, compared to BMS, 1st generation DES
- provide only a small reduction in TVR
- may increase late cadiac death/MI
AIMS
⇒ First aim: to prove or refute this hypothesis in an
adequately sized prospective multicenter trial
⇒ Second aim: to evaluate whether a similar risk-
benefit relation would also be found for 2nd
generation DES

Intention to-treat analysis
Inclusion 2’314 patients in need of >3.0mm stents
irrespective of indication for PCI
(March 2007 until May 2008)
Randomization 1:1:1 to

6. BASKET-PROVE
Study Design II
Exclusions shock, In-stent restenosis, stent thrombosis, unprotected LM
or SVG, planned surgery < 12 months, increased bleeding
risk/oral anticoagulation, vessels >4mm, no compliance
Follow-up - after 12 and 24 months
- angio for clinical indication only
- ASS and Clopidogrel for 12 months in all patients
Endpoints: - 1° EP: Cardiac death / MI up to 24 months
a) SES vs BMS b) EES vs BMS [c) SES vs EES]
- 2° EP: Late cardiac death / MI (7-24 months) =“safety”

Conclusions
In contemporary stenting of large coronary arteries
> late safety problems of DES could no longer be
confirmed (trend in opposite direction!)
> both DES showed superior efficacy compared
with BMS (TVR reduction >50%)
> no difference in either safety or efficacy was
found between 2nd generation EES and 1st
generation SES (exploratory analysis)
14. BASKET-PROVE
Implications
Findings of BASKET-PROVE imply that in patients
in need of large coronary artery stenting
> DES may be used without evidence of increased late
cardiac events / late stent thrombosis
> Since BMS and DES showed similar death / MI rates
BMS may still be used - however, with a higher TVR-rate
> Since the performance of 1st and 2nd generation DES (SES
and EES) was similar
both DES may be used in these patients
