Aims
Longitudinal geographic mismatch (LGM) as well as edge dissections are associated with an increased risk of adverse events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Recently, a novel system of real-time optical coherence tomography (OCT) with angiographic co-registration (ACR) became available and allows matched integration of cross-sectional OCT images to angiography. The OPTICO-integration II trial sought to assess the impact of ACR for PCI planning on the risk of LGM and edge dissections.
Methods
A total of 84 patients were prospectively randomized to ACR-guided PCI, OCT-guided PCI (without co-registration), and angiography-guided PCI. Primary endpoint was a composite of major edge dissection and/or LGM as assessed by post-PCI OCT.
Results
The primary endpoint was significantly reduced in ACR-guided PCI (4.2%) as compared to OCT-guided PCI (19.1%; p = 0.03) and angiography-guided PCI (25.5%; p < 0.01). Rates of LGM were 4.2%, 17.0%, and 22.9% in the ACR-guided PCI, in the OCT-guided PCI, and the angiography-guided PCI groups, respectively (ACR vs. OCT p = 0.04; ACR vs. angiography p = 0.04). The number of major edge dissections was low and without significant differences among the study groups (0% vs. 2.1% vs. 4.3%).
Conclusion
This study for the first time demonstrates superiority of ACR-guided PCI over OCT- and angiography-guided PCI in reducing the composite endpoint of major edge dissection and LGM, which was meanly driven by a reduction of LGM.
