Cypher (sirolimus-eluting stent, Cordis, Johnson and Johnson, Florida, USA) and Taxus (paclitaxel-eluting stent, Boston Scientific, Boston, USA) are the two most widely used DESs, and they both have distinct pharmacological properties and release kinetics. It has been not studied whether these two DESs show different angiographic outcomes when they are simultaneously implanted in the same patient. Subjects and Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the angiographic findings of the short-term follow-up in 34 patients (average age: 63 year old, 9 women) in whom both Cypher and Taxus stents were implanted at the same time for the treatment of obstructive coronary lesion. Results:There was no significant difference in the basal angiographic characteristics of the lesions that had two stents deployed in terms of the AHA/ACC classification, reference diameter, the percent diameter stenosis and minimal luminal diameter. The post-procedure results were similar between the two stents. At 6 months follow-up, the Cypher stent displayed significantly less in-stent lumen loss compared with the Taxus stent (0.16±0.04 mm vs 0.27±0.04 mm; respectively, p=0.040) and a smaller percent diameter stenosis (15.9±1.3% vs 19.9±2.2%, respectively, p=0.049). Conclusion:The Cypher stent showed significantly less luminal loss during short term follow-up compared with the Taxus stent when implanted in the same patient. This result suggests that in a given individual patient, the Cypher stent induces less neointimal proliferation than does the Taxus stent.

4 Min-A Park, et al:ses and PES in the Same Patient 603 p=0.040), 내경협착백분율도 Cypher 스텐트에서보다작은것으로나타났다 (15.9±1.3% vs 19.9±2.2%, p=0.049). 이분법적인재협착은 Cypher 스텐트군에서는관찰되지않았고, Taxus 군에서는 1명이발견되었다. 고 약물용출스텐트의임상도입은기존의금속스텐트의문제점으로남아있던내막증식에의한재협착을효과적으로감소시킴으로써경피적관상동맥중재술분야에서중요한진전을이룩하였다. 1)2)15) 약물용출스텐트에주로사용되는약제는 sirolimus 와 paclitaxel 로서혈관내평활근세포의증식을억제함으로써내막증식을최소화하는공통적인특징을가지고있으며이들약제를용출하는스텐트는일반금속스텐트에비해현저히개선된재협착율을나타내었다. 3-6)16) 그러나 sirolimus 와 paclitaxel 을도포한스텐트인 Cypher 와 Taxus 는여러가지면에서서로다른특성을가지고있다. 7)8) 근간이되는스텐트는각각기존의상용제품 (BX VELO- CITY, NIR III 혹은 EXPRESS 2) 으로서디자인과유연성이다르며, 7) 약물을저장하는 polymer 의성분과유형도상이하여약물이방출되는시간적인역동학 (kinetics) 도다르다. 17) 또한도포약제의약물학적성상은두제품차이를규정하는중요한요소로서, sirolimus 는세포주기 (cell cycle) 의초기인 G1 시기를차단하지만 18) paclitaxel 은유사분열 (M phase) 시기를차단함으로써세포의증식을억제한다. 19) 이결과 sirolimus 는세포억지작용 (cytostatic) 을보이는반면 20) paclitaxel 은세포독성 (cytotoxic) 작용을나타낸다. 21) 그리고 paclitaxel 과는달리 sirolimus 는 interleukin-6 과같은시토카인을감소시켜서항염증작용을발휘하는특징을가지고있다. 22) 국소독성 (local toxicity) 면에서 paclitaxel 은 sirolimus 보다치료가능영역 (therapeutic window) 가작으며상대적으로작은양에서혈관조직의괴사를초래할수있다. 23) 이러한특성의상이점은스텐트가실제환자에사용될때의각종성적차이로나타날수있다. 각각의약물스텐트의특성이궁극적으로그차이를드러내는것은시술후나타나는혈관의신생내막증식으로서이는혈관조영술에서후기내강소실 (late lumen loss) 로가장잘반영된다. 24) 이를관찰한다수의임상연구는분석에서 Cypher 스텐트가 Taxus 스텐트에비해서후기내강소실이작음을보고하고있다. 9-14) Sirolimus 용출스텐트를일반금속스텐트와비교한연구들을종합한분석에서 Cypher 스텐트의후기소실은 0.18 mm이었으며 25) 이는 TAXUS IV 연구에서 26) 나타난 Taxus 스텐트의 0.39 mm에비해유의하게작은수치이다. 이같은차이는긴병변이나 27)28) 복잡병변, 29) 그리고작은혈관의병변에서도 30) 관찰되었다. 후기내강소실의감소는연구에따라서는재시술율의감소와같은임상적인차이로나타나기도하였으나 9-11) 최근의 REALITY 연구에서는 13) 임상적 찰 인차이로귀결되지는않았다. 그러나이제까지의비교연구에서는각스텐트가서로다른사람에삽입되었으며이러한방식은무작위선정을한다고하더라도사람마다다른생물학적조건을완전하게통제할수는없다. 동일인에서삽입된약물용출스텐트의비교는개인간의생물학적변이를배제하여제품의차이를보다객관적으로관찰할기회를제공한다. 본연구에서양제품을동일인의관상동맥혈관에같이사용하였을경우에도 Cypher 스텐트는 Taxus 스텐트에비해단기추적시의내경소실이유의하게작은것으로나타났다. Cypher 스텐트의후기내경소실은평균 0.17 mm로서 SIRIUS 연구의결과와일치하며. Taxus 스텐트의경우내경소실은 0.27 mm로서 TAXUS Ⅳ 연구의 28) 0.35 mm 보다는작으나 SIRTAX 연구의 10) 0.25 mm에상응하였다. 또한내경협착백분율역시 Cypher 스텐트가 15.9% 로서 Taxus 스텐트의 19.9% 보다유의하게작게나타나앞서발표된 SIRTAX 10) 나 REALITY 13) 와동등한결과를보였다. 본연구의대상이적은수였음에도단기간의추적조영술분석에서유의한차이가나타난것은동일인의혈관에서각스텐트의약물효과가신생내막증식을억제함에있어서실질적인효능차이가있음을시사한다. 본연구의제한점은후향적인연구로서병변에따른스텐트선정이시술당시에시술자의선택에의해서이루어짐으로해서스텐트가삽입된혈관부위가양군에서균일하지않았다는점이다. 그결과 Cypher 스텐트는전체 34곳중 19 군데가좌전하행지에삽입되었으며 Taxus 스텐트는 17군데가우관상동맥에삽입되어양군간분포에유의한차이가있었다. 비록대상병변의 AHA 분류유형, 병변길이, 기준혈관내경면에서양군간에차이는없어병변특성은유사하였지만, 혈관분포나위치에따른변이는편의 (bias) 의소지를제공할수있다. 또한대상수가적어서조영술상에나타난차이가임상결과로연계되는지의여부를분석할수도없었다. 향후보다광범위한수를대상으로한전향적인연구가이러한문제를해결할수있을것으로사료된다. 요약 배경및목적 : 약물용출스텐트의사용은일반금속스텐트의단점인재협착율문제를효과적으로감소시켰다. 가장널리쓰이는약물용출스텐트인 sirolimius-eluting(cypher ) stent 와 paclitaxel-eluting(taxus ) stent 는여러임상연구를통하여조영술상의성적에차이가있음이보고되었으나동일인에서두스텐트가동시에삽입된경우에이를비교한연구는없었다. 방법 : 복수의관상동맥협착병변을치료하기위해서 Cypher 와 Taxus 스텐트를동시에삽입하였던 34명의환자 ( 남 25명,

5 604 Korean Circulation J 2006;36: 여 9명, 평균나이 63세 ) 를대상으로하였다. 시술전후와 6개월이후에시행된추적기간에시행된정량적관상동맥조영술을통하여시술병변을후향적으로분석하였다. 결과 : Cypher 와 Taxus 스텐트는각각좌전하행지와우관상동맥에절반이상이삽입되었으나병변의특성은 AHA/ACC 분류, 병변길이, 기준혈관내경면에서양군에서유사하였으며시술직후의혈관최소내경도차이가없었다. 6개월이후에시행된추적조영술에서 Cypher 스텐트는 Taxus 스텐트에비해후기내경소실이유의하게작았으며 (0.16±0.029 mm vs 0.27±0.039 mm; p=0.040), 내경협착백분율도유의하게작았다 (15.9±1.26% vs 19.9±2.18%, p=0.049). 결론 : 본연구의결과동일인의관상동맥병변에삽입된경우에 Cypher 스텐트는 Taxus 스텐트에비해서후기내경소실이유의하게작았으며, 이는병변의신생내막증식억제에서 Cypher 스텐트가 Taxus 에비해보다효과적임을시사한다. 중심단어 :Sirolimus;Paclitaxel; 재협착.
