A new resorbable magnesium scaffold for de novo coronary lesions (DREAMS 3): one-year results of the BIOMAG-I first-in-human study

Abstract

Background: The third-generation coronary sirolimus-eluting magnesium scaffold, DREAMS 3G, is a further development of the DREAMS 2G (commercial name Magmaris), aiming to provide performance outcomes similar to drug-eluting stents (DES).

Aims: The BIOMAG-I study aims to assess the safety and performance of this new-generation scaffold.

Methods: This is a prospective, multicentre, first-in-human study with clinical and imaging follow-up scheduled at 6 and 12 months. The clinical follow-up will continue for 5 years.

Results: A total of 116 patients with 117 lesions were enrolled. At 12 months, after completion of resorption, in-scaffold late lumen loss was 0.24±0.36 mm (median 0.19, interquartile range 0.06-0.36). The minimum lumen area was 4.95±2.24 mm² by intravascular ultrasound and 4.68±2.32 mm² by optical coherence tomography. Three target lesion failures were reported (2.6%, 95% confidence interval: 0.9-7.9), all clinically driven target lesion revascularisations. Cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and definite or probable scaffold thrombosis were absent.

Conclusions: Data at the end of the resorption period of DREAMS 3G showed that the third-generation bioresorbable magnesium scaffold is clinically safe and effective, making it a possible alternative to DES.

Figure 1. Patient flowchart.
A total of 116 patients with 117 lesions were enrolled. At 12 months, serial data (reflecting preprocedure, post-procedure and 6 and 12 months) were available for 100 lesions with angiographic follow-up, 75 lesions with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) follow-up and for 89 lesions with optical coherence tomography (OCT) follow-up. F/U: follow-up

Figure 2. Serial area changes by intravascular ultrasound.
Paired intravascular ultrasound data were available for 75 patients (core laboratory analysed). The mean lumen area and the mean scaffold area are nearly identical. Subsequently the different curves are not discernible. Δ indicates the difference between follow-ups in mm2 [95% CI]. Δ* refers to post-procedure versus six months, and Δ** refers to 6 months versus 12 months. CI: confidence interval; NIH: neointimal hyperplasia

A) Optical coherence tomography showed good postprocedural strut apposition and that the struts were no longer discernible at 12 months. B) The in-scaffold late lumen loss (LLL) improved by 38% compared to the precursor of DREAMS 3G, the DREAMS 2G, in the BIOSOLVE-II study.

All 3 target lesion failures were clinically driven target lesion revascularisations; no target vessel myocardial infarction nor cardiac death was reported. TLF: target lesion failure
