Conclusions As compared with a primary wire escalation strategy, upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter for crossing CTOs was associated with: similar crossing time similar success and procedural MACE rates similar equipment costs Further studies are needed to determine whether some subgroups (such as in-stent occlusions) are better suited for crossing using the CrossBoss catheter.

Issues Involving The Case Top Three Trials from TCT 2017: DKCRUSH-V, ABSORB III-3Yr, CrossBoss First ORBITA Trial- Sham Controlled Trial of PCI in Stable Single Vessel CAD
Benefit of PCI over MT in Stable CAD Decreased angina and antianginal meds (ACME I) Improved exercise tolerance (ACME I) Decreases ischemia on MPI (Nuclear sub-study of Courage Trial) Better quality of life parameter (FAME-2 Trial) Reduce urgent revascularization in FFR <0.81 (FAME-2 Trial) Properly done may reduce 5-Yr death/MI (US gp of Courage Trial)
ORBITA Trial: Background Over 500 000 PCIs per year for stable angina Primarily for angina relief Size of angina relief beyond placebo unknown Unblinded PCI +96 seconds (NEJM 1992) Single drug +55 seconds (JACC 2004)
ORBITA Trial: Principal Hypothesis Symptom Relief in Stable Angina PCI increases exercise time more than placebo procedure Primary endpoint Difference in exercise time increment between the arms For patients to be willing to participate in this first placebo- controlled trial of PCI, duration must be long enough for full hemodynamic effect but not so long as to inhibit recruitment Al-Lamee, et al., Lancet Nov. 2, 2017 Epub
Sample Size Calculation ORBITA Trial Inclusion Criteria To detect 30 sec, at 80% power, within-arm SD 75 sec, Needs 200 randomized patients Stable angina One or more ≥ 70% stenosis in a single vessel Suitable for PCI This sample size is comparable to other trials assessing this question.

Conclusions ORBITA is the first placebo-controlled randomized trial of PCI in stable angina Area stenosis QCA 84.4%, FFR 0.69, iFR 0.76 PCI was safe and physiologically effective PCI significantly reduced ischemic burden as assessed by stress echo In this single vessel, angiographically guided trial there was no difference in exercise time increment between PCI and placebo Al-Lamee R, TCT 2017
ORBITA in Context Single vessel PCI guided by angina + angiogram To allow complete revascularization PCI guided by angina + angiogram In line with common practice Focus is on symptomatic relief Not risk or events Intensive medical therapy In line with Guidelines

Limitations of the ORBITA Trial: Small sample size Short duration (only 6 weeks as benefit of PCI in FAME2 occurred at 6 months) Super selective 1V CAD population. On MMT & baseline exercise tolerance of >9 min (>10% of PCI population) 29-31% of physiologically negative lesions underwent PCI It will be difficult to replicate sham PCI After 6 weeks, many of these patients will undergo “True PCI” on patients and MD’s preference
Conclusion of the ORBITA Trial “Too much hype for too little gain” Unlike to change our clinical practice

Take Home Message: Recent Interventional Trials of DKCRUSH-V, ABSORB-III, CROSSBOSS 1st, ORBITA, FAME-2 DKCRUSH-V showed that 2-stent strategy is better then provisional-stent strategy (47% required 2 stents) in dLM bifurcation. ABSORB II and III long-term data continued to show scaffold being inferior to Xience DES. Crossboss 1st strategt of CTO recanalization failed show any advantage over routine wire escalation strategy ORBITA trial of one vessel CAD after optimal maximal medical stabilization failed to show any benefit of PCI on exercise duration and angina relief compared to sham PCI at 6-week follow-up. Trial did show improvement in echo wall motion scores on exercise. ORBITA trial on ground of only 6-weeks duration is unlikely to change our practice as PCI benefit may/will occur after 4-6mths in reducing urgent TLR our MMT alone in lesions <0.80.
