META-ANALYSES“I like to think of the meta-analytic process as similar to being in a helicopter.

On the ground individual trees are visible with high resolution.

This resolution diminishes as the helicopter rises, and in its place we begin to see patterns not visible from the ground.”

SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSES

• What is a systematic review?

– A systematic appraisal of the methodological quality,

clinical relevance and consistency of published

evidence on a specific clinical topic in order to provide

clear suggestions for a specific healthcare problem

• What is a meta-analysis?

– A quantitative synthesis that, preserving the identity of

individual studies, tries to provide an estimate of the

overall effect of an intervention, exposure, or diagnostic

strategy

NETWORK META-ANALYSIS OF STENT THROMBOSIS

Page 25: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

GOAL• We aimed to perform direct, indirect and

combined (i.e. network) meta-analyses of the risk of stent thrombosis with all FDA approved coronary stents:– Bare-metal stents (BMS); Cobalt-chromium

everolimus-eluting stents (CoCr-EES); Endeavor zotarolimus-eluting stents (End-ZES); Paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES); Platinum-chromium everolimus-eluting stents (PtCr-EES); Resolute zotarolimus-eluting stents (Res-ZES); Sirolimus-eluting stents (SES)

Page 26: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

SEARCH AND SELECTION

• Randomized trials of FDA approved coronary stents reporting on stent thrombosis according to the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) definitions were searched in multiple databases (including MEDLINE/PubMed).

• Authors and experts were queried for additional data and insights on other potentially pertinent studies.

Palmerini, Biondi-Zoccai et al, Lancet 2012

Page 27: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

END-POINTS• Primary end-point:

– 1-year definite stent thrombosis

• Secondary end-points:– Definite stent thrombosis occurring before 30 days,

after 30 days, and within 2 years– Definite or probable stent thrombosis (at the above

time points) – Death, cardiac death and myocardial infarction

within 2 years

ANALYSIS

• Direct (pair-wise) meta-analyses were performed with a random-effect method computing odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).

• Indirect and network meta-analyses were performed with a random-effect method within a Bayesian hierarchical framework, also computing OR and 95%CI.

Palmerini, Biondi-Zoccai et al, Lancet 2012

Page 29: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

ANALYSIS• Small study effects were appraised by funnel

plot inspection.• Statistical consistency in pair-wise and network

analyses was appraised with I2.• Sensitivity analyses were conducted using a

fixed-effect method and restricted to several subgroups of interest.

• RevMan and WinBUGS were used for computations.

WHAT ABOUT DEATH OR MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION?

• CoCr-EES were also associated with a significantly lower risk of myocardial infarction (OR=0.61 [0.47-0.79]).

• These differences were supported by favorable trends for all cause death (OR=0.83 [0.65-1.03]) and cardiac death (OR=0.82 [0.58-1.13]).

LEARNING GOALS• Current paradigm

• Why could drug-eluting stents possibly be safer than bare-metal stents?

• The case for network meta-analyses

• Stent thrombosis with drug-eluting versus bare-metal stents: evidence from a network meta-analysis

• Paradigm shift

Page 42: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

IMPLICATIONS• The largest and most comprehensive appraisal

of the risk of stent thrombosis with different types of coronary stents has the following implications:– CoCr-EES were associated with significantly

lower rates of 1-year and 2-year definite stent thrombosis than were BMS, a result not present with any other DES.

Page 43: Www.metcardio.org Why are drug-eluting stents safer than bare-metal stents? Giuseppe Biondi Zoccai, MD Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy METCARDIO,

www.metcardio.org

IMPLICATIONS– Decreases in stent thrombosis with CoCr-EES

compared with BMS were apparent both early and late (occurring before 30 days and between 31 days and 1 year).

– CoCr-EES were also associated with lower 1-year rates of definite stent thrombosis than were other 1st and 2nd generation DES, including PES, SES, PC-ZES, and Re-ZES.

– These benefits were associated with lower rates of myocardial infarction.
