BACKGROUND: Recent meta-analyses have raised concerns about mortality with paclitaxel drug-coated balloons (DCB). This pooled, patient-level analysis of the BIOLUX P-I, P-II, and P-III studies was performed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Passeo-18 Lux DCB.
CONCLUSIONS: Our patient-level analysis shows that overall the use of the Passeo-18 Lux paclitaxel DCB in infrainguinal arteries was not associated with increased mortality at 1 year and reinforces the efficacy of DCB angioplasty in preventing amputation or the need for reintervention.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Individual patient-level demographic, clinical, diagnostic, and procedural data from the BIOLUX P-I, BIOLUX P-II, and BIOLUX P-III studies were pooled in a common database. Clinical safety (all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality) and efficacy (any amputation, target lesion/vessel revascularization) were extracted. Cox proportional modeling was used to assess the effect of critical limb ischemia at the time of enrollment and the occurrence of new amputation as a time-dependent variable on mortality.
RESULTS: A total of 1009 patients were included in the analysis. Sixty-six patients were treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and 943 underwent DCB angioplasty. The cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality did not differ between the groups (PTA 6.7%, DCB 6.7%, p = 0.65). The composite efficacy endpoint of freedom from any amputation and target lesion/vessel revascularization was superior in the DCB arm compared to PTA [PTA 28.8%, DCB 16.7%, p = 0.02]. Both in unadjusted and adjusted Cox proportional models (adjusted for critical limb ischemia and amputation), the use of DCB was not associated with any mortality at 1 year.
