## Intended Use

The XIENCE PRIME stent system is indicated for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with symptomatic heart disease due to de novo native coronary artery lesions (length ≤ 32 mm) with reference vessel diameters of ≥ 2.25 mm to ≤ 4.25 mm.

## Device Story

The XIENCE PRIME is a drug-eluting coronary stent system consisting of a cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloy stent coated with everolimus embedded in a non-erodible polymer (PBMA and PVDF-HFP). It is delivered via a balloon-expandable rapid exchange (RX) catheter system. Used by interventional cardiologists in a cardiac catheterization lab, the device is deployed in native coronary arteries to improve luminal diameter. The stent provides mechanical scaffolding while the everolimus inhibits neointimal growth via mTOR pathway inhibition. The physician uses fluoroscopic guidance to position the stent; balloon inflation expands the stent against the lesion. The device benefits patients by reducing restenosis compared to bare metal stents. The system is compatible with 5F guiding catheters and is MR conditional.

## Clinical Evidence

Prospective, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter SPIRIT PRIME trial (N=505). Primary endpoint: Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 1 year. Core Size Registry (N=401) TLF rate was 6.5% (ARC-defined) vs 9.2% PG (p=0.0338). Long Lesion Registry (N=104) TLF rate was 12.5% (ARC-defined) vs 19.2% PG (p=0.0484). Both registries met primary endpoints. Safety data included stent thrombosis rates (0.5% Core Size, 0.0% Long Lesion at 1 year).

## Technological Characteristics

Stent: L-605 Cobalt Chromium alloy. Coating: Everolimus (100 μg/cm²) in non-erodible PBMA/PVDF-HFP polymer. Delivery system: Rapid Exchange (RX) balloon-expandable catheter, 143 cm working length, 5F guiding catheter compatibility. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO). MR Conditional (1.5T/3T).

## Regulatory Identification

Stent, coronary, drug-eluting -- a metal scaffold with a drug coating placed via a delivery catheter into the coronary artery or saphenous vein graft to maintain the lumen.  The drug coating is intended to inhibit restenosis.

# A. Device Component Description

The XIENCE PRIME stent system consists of the coated Cobalt Chromium (CoCr) alloy stent mounted on a delivery system. The XIENCE PRIME stent uses the identical stent and balloon materials, and the identical drug coating formulation and drug dose density (100ug/cm²) as the XIENCE V Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (P070015 and supplements). The XIENCE PRIME stent design is similar to that of the XIENCE V stent with regard to the Multi-Link Vision Coronary Stent System (P020047 and supplements) stent design in strut thickness and similar metal to artery ratios that, when expanded, allows for similar drug dosing to the vessel. The XIENCE PRIME stent design has been slightly modified from that of the XIENCE V stent design in order to accommodate design improvements while not affecting the overall structural integrity of the design. These modifications include longer cell length and a modified proximal end ring.

The XIENCE PRIME stent delivery system utilizes the same principle of operations as other Abbott Vascular Rapid Exchange (RX) stent systems and dilatation catheters. The XIENCE PRIME stent delivery system materials are similar to those used in the XIENCE V EECSS and the Voyager NC Coronary Dilatation Catheter (DCD) (P810046/S226).

# B. Drug Component Description

Identical to the XIENCE V stent, the XIENCE PRIME and XIENCE PRIME LL Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stents (XIENCE PRIME stent) are coated with everolimus (active ingredient), embedded in a non-erodible polymer (inactive ingredient).

# B1. Everolimus

Everolimus is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the XIENCE PRIME stent. It is a novel semi-synthetic macrolide immunosuppressant, synthesized by chemical modification of rapamycin (INN: sirolimus). The everolimus chemical name is 40-O-(2-hydroxyethyl)-rapamycin and the chemical structure is shown in Figure 1 below.

![img-0.jpeg](img-0.jpeg)
Figure 1 Chemical Structure of Everolimus

## B2. Inactive Ingredients

The XIENCE PRIME stent contains inactive ingredients, including poly n-butyl methacrylate (PBMA), a polymer that adheres to the stent and drug coating, and PVDF-HFP, which is comprised of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene monomers as the drug matrix layer containing everolimus. PBMA is a homopolymer with a molecular weight (Mw) of 264,000 to 376,000 dalton. PVDF-HFP is a non-erodible semi-crystalline random copolymer with a molecular weight (Mw) of 254,000 to 293,000 dalton. The drug matrix copolymer is mixed with everolimus (83%/17% w/w polymer/everolimus ratio) and applied to the entire PBMA-coated stent surface. The drug load is $100\ \mu\mathrm{g}/\mathrm{cm}^2$. No topcoat layer is used. The polymer chemical structures are shown in Figure 2a and 2b below.

## C. Mechanism of Action

The mechanism by which the XIENCE PRIME stent inhibits neointimal growth as seen in preclinical and clinical studies has not been established. At the cellular level, everolimus inhibits growth factor-stimulated cell proliferation. At the molecular level, everolimus forms a complex with the cytoplasmic protein FKBP-12 (FK 506 Binding Protein). This complex binds to and interferes with FRAP (FKBP-12 Rapamycin Associated Protein), also known as mTOR (mammalian Target Of Rapamycin), leading to inhibition of cell metabolism, growth and proliferation by arresting the cell cycle at the late G1 stage.

## VI. ALTERNATIVE PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES

There are several other alternatives for the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease including exercise, diet, drug therapy, percutaneous coronary interventions (i.e., balloon angioplasty, atherectomy, bare metal stents, coated stents, and other drug-eluting stents), and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. Each alternative has its own advantages and disadvantages. A patient should fully discuss these alternatives with his/her physician to select the method that best meets expectations and lifestyle.

# IX. SUMMARY OF PRECLINICAL STUDIES

A series of non-clinical laboratory studies related to the XIENCE PRIME and XIENCE PRIME LL product were performed. Studies included those performed on the bare metal stent system (Multi-Link family — ML8, VISION and MINI VISION), the combination product XIENCE V or the finished combination product (XIENCE PRIME and XIENCE PRIME LL Stent Systems). Leveraging data from testing performed on the Multi-Link family is appropriate because the stent materials and manufacturing process are identical to the XIENCE PRIME for testing where it is appropriate to test bare metal stents.

## A2. In Vitro Engineering Testing

In vitro engineering testing, in accordance with FDA “Guidance for and FDA Staff- Non-Clinical Tests and Recommended Labeling for Intravascular Stents and Associated Delivery Systems,” April 2010, was conducted on the XIENCE PRIME Stent except where the testing could be leveraged from the MULTI-LINK VISION, MULTI-LINK MINI VISION, or MULTI-LINK 8 stents, approved in P020047, P020047/S003, and P020047/017 respectively, or the XIENCE V stent, approved in P070017. Supplementary in vitro engineering tests were also performed on the XIENCE PRIME delivery systems containing the XIENCE PRIME stent mounted on a delivery catheter. This testing is summarized in Table 4. "Pass" denotes that the test results met product specifications and/or the recommendations in the above-referenced guidance document.

Table 4 In Vitro Engineering Studies

|  Test | Test Description | Results  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  Material Characterization Testing  |   |   |
|  Material Analysis | Evaluations were conducted on the stent tubing provided by the material supplier prior to any processing to confirm chemical analysis, grain size, and inclusion content per relevant ASTM standards (F90, A751, E1086, F1479, E1019, E112, F138, F2527, E45). In addition, SEM analysis was conducted on bare metal stents to identify and analyze trace contaminants which may be present on the stent. | PASS  |
|  Material Properties: Tensile Strength and Elongation | Tensile strength and elongation testing was performed on the stent tubing prior to any processing. The tensile strength and elongation met acceptance criteria. | PASS  |
|  Corrosion Testing | Initial pitting corrosion testing conducted on the MULTI-LINK VISION stents (P020047) is leveraged to support the approval of the XIENCE PRIME Stent System. In addition, corrosion testing was conducted on MULTI-LINK 8 stents (P020047/S017) following 400 million cycles (ten year equivalent) of radial fatigue in an overlapped 15 mm static bend. The corrosion testing was conducted according to ASTM F2129 “Standard Test Method for Conducting Cyclic Potentiodynamic Measurements to Determine the Corrosion Susceptibility of Small Implant Devices” to demonstrate that the finished stents exhibit acceptable corrosion resistance. All MULTI-LINK VISION and MULTI-LINK 8 stents tested exceeded the minimum acceptance criteria for rest potential and breakdown potential and therefore exhibited acceptable pitting corrosion resistance.
Both bare metal and polymer-only coated XIENCE V stents were tested according to ASTM F2129 to demonstrate that the finished stents exhibit acceptable corrosion resistance.
Since the XIENCE PRIME stent is similar in design to the MULTI-LINK VISION and XIENCE V stents, identical to the MULTI-LINK 8 stent, and has the identical material and manufacturing processes as all three stents, the corrosion test results can be leveraged in support of the XIENCE PRIME Stent System. | PASS  |
|  Fretting Corrosion | XIENCE PRIME stents were evaluated following 400 million cycles (10 year equivalent) of radial fatigue testing in an overlapped 15mm static bend to determine the potential for fretting corrosion. The results met all acceptance criteria and indicated that the stents possess a high resistance to fretting corrosion. | PASS  |
|  Galvanic Corrosion | Testing was conducted on marketed stainless steel (MULTI-LINK TETRA) and CoCr (MULTI-LINK VISION) overlapped in a passive manner, and overlapped in an active manner (with disruption of the oxide layer) to determine the potential for galvanic corrosion. The results met the acceptance criteria and indicated a high resistance to galvanic corrosion. | PASS  |
|  Stent Dimensional and Functional Attributes  |   |   |
|  Stent Dimensional Inspection | Measurements were taken of the bare metal stent strut width, thickness, and length. All stents met product specifications. | PASS  |
|  Stent Percent Surface Area | Determines the metal-to-artery ratio of the nominal XIENCE PRIME stent using a theoretical calculation that divides the total vessel contact metal surface area of the stent by the theoretical surface area of the vessel at the desired diameter. Metal to artery percentage ratios were calculated for each stent diameter, with the highest surface to artery ratio (17%) occurring at the smallest stent diameter (2.25 mm). | PASS  |

|  Stent Uniformity of Expansion Test | Determines the uniformity of expansion along the stent length. XIENCE PRIME units were inflated to either nominal or post-dilated inner diameters, deflated, and diameter measurements were taken at various points along the stent length. Measurements were averaged and all XIENCE PRIME stents met product specifications. | PASS  |
|  Stent Percent Length Change (Foreshortening) Test | Determines the difference in stent length pre-and post-expansion to either nominal or post-dilated inner diameters. All stents met product specifications. | PASS  |
|  Stent Percent Recoil Test | Quantifies the amount of recoil of the stent after balloon expansion. The system was inflated to either nominal or post-dilated diameters and measurements were taken of the stent diameter at various locations along the stent length. The system was then deflated and the same measurements taken. The percent recoil is calculated by subtracting the average stent inner diameter (ID) without the balloon from the average stent ID with the balloon, dividing by the average stent ID with the balloon and multiplying by 100. All XIENCE PRIME stents met product specifications. | PASS  |
|  Radial Stiffness | Radial stiffness was evaluated on the XIENCE PRIME stent for information only. | For characterization only  |
|  Stent Radial (Hoop) Strength Test | Testing was conducted to determine the radial strength of the stent under compression force. Stents were expanded to either nominal or post-dilated diameters, placed in an Instron tester, and subjected to incrementally increasing compression forces. The pressure at which deformation is no longer completely reversible was recorded. All XIENCE PRIME stents met product specifications. | PASS  |
|  Finite Element Analysis (FEA) | An in-depth analysis of the stent was conducted to ensure that the implant conditions to which the stent will be subjected would not result in failure due to fatigue. The FEA evaluated the structural integrity of the stent when subjected to the expected loading conditions generated in coronary arteries. The analysis took into account manufacturing, delivery, implantation and clinical loading over the implant life, and predicted that fatigue failures of the XIENCE PRIME stent will not likely occur. | PASS  |
|  Accelerated Structural Fatigue | Testing was conducted to demonstrate structural durability of the XIENCE PRIME stent under expected in vivo cyclic loading conditions for an equivalent of 10 years (~400 million cycles) in an overlapped configuration on a static bend with a radius of 15 mm.
The stents were expanded to the largest intended diameter, and were dynamically cycled in a simulated vessel for 400 million cycles. Following cycling, stents were visually inspected under 40X magnification. No signs of strut cracking or breaking were detected. | PASS  |

|  Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Nonclinical testing has demonstrated that the XIENCE PRIME stent, in single and in overlapped configurations up to 71 mm in length, is MR Conditional. It can be scanned safely under the following conditions:

• Static magnetic field of 1.5 or 3 Tesla
• Spatial gradient field of 2500 Gauss/cm or less
• Maximum whole-body-averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) of 2.0 W/kg (normal operating mode) for up to 15 minutes of scanning for each sequence

The XIENCE PRIME stent should not migrate in this MRI environment. Nonclinical testing at field strengths greater than 3 Tesla has not been performed to evaluate stent migration or heating. MRI at 1.5 or 3 Tesla may be performed immediately following the implantation of the XIENCE PRIME stent.

Stent heating was derived by using the measured nonclinical, in vitro temperature rises in a GE Excite 3 Tesla scanner and in a GE 1.5 Tesla coil in combination with the local specific absorption rates (SARs) in a digitized human heart model. The maximum whole body averaged SAR was determined by validated calculation. At overlapped lengths of up to 71 mm, the XIENCE PRIME stent produced a nonclinical maximum local temperature rise of 3.3°C at a maximum whole body averaged SAR of 2.0 W/kg (normal operating mode) for 15 minutes. These calculations do not take into consideration the cooling effects of blood flow.

The effects of MRI on overlapped stents greater than 71 mm in length or stents with fractured struts are unknown.

As demonstrated in nonclinical testing, an image artifact can be present when scanning the XIENCE PRIME stent. MR image quality may be compromised if the area of interest is in the exact same area, or relatively close to, the position of the XIENCE PRIME stent. Therefore, it may be necessary to optimize the MR imaging parameters for the presence of XIENCE PRIME stent.

It is suggested that patients register the conditions under which the implant can safely be scanned with the MedicAlert Foundation (www.medicalert.org) or an equivalent organization | PASS  |

# A5. Stability/Shelf Life

A formal stability study was conducted to establish a shelf life / expiration date for the XIENCE PRIME Stent System. Testing included appearance, total content, drug release, degradation products, oxygen content, molecular weight and polydispersity, bubble leak test (packaging integrity), endotoxin (pyrogen), particulates, and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) content. Testing to establish container closure integrity was conducted to ensure sterility was maintained during the shelf life of the product. Functional testing of the stent system was conducted on aged product. The data generated to-date support a shelf life of 9 months.

# A6. Sterilization

The XIENCE PRIME Stent System is sterilized using ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization. The cycle is validated per the ISO 11135-1: 2007 Medical Devices – Validation and Routine Control of Ethylene Oxide Sterilization. Results obtained from the sterilization studies show that the product satisfies a minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of $10^{-6}$. In addition, the amount of bacterial endotoxins was verified to be within the specification limits.

# B. In Vivo Animal Studies

## B1. In Vivo Pharmacokinetics

One in vivo PK study was carried out in an animal model to evaluate the PK profile of the drug from the XIENCE PRIME stent system and to assess the bioequivalence between the XIENCE PRIME stent system and the XIENCE V Stent System by comparing their drug release profiles through biostatistic analysis.

A summary of the performed PK study to support product safety is included in Table 4.

## B2. Drug Interactions

Formal drug interaction studies have not been conducted with the XIENCE PRIME stent. Everolimus is extensively metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A) isozyme in the gut wall and liver and is a substrate for the countertransporter Pglycoprotein. Therefore, absorption and subsequent elimination of everolimus may be influenced by drugs that affect these pathways. Coadministration of strong CYP3A inhibitors (such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, ritonavir) and inducers (such as rifampicin, rifabutin) should be avoided. Coadministration of moderate CYP3A inhibitors (such as erythromycin, fluconazole, calcium channel blockers) and inducers (such as carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin) should be accompanied by everolimus therapeutic drug monitoring. The pharmacokinetic interaction between orally administered everolimus and concomitantly administered drugs is described in the XIENCE PRIME stent system Instructions for Use.

{23}

# B3. Animal Safety Studies

Detailed arterial histopathology and histomorphometry are not obtainable through human clinical trials, so a series of animal studies were conducted to evaluate safety, efficacy (proof of concept dosing), and overall product performance.

The two *in vivo* safety studies, conducted in the porcine coronary model at 28 and 180 days, demonstrate the safety of the XIENCE PRIME stent system and an overall comparability to the XIENCE V Stent System. The 28 and 180 day time points were selected as key time points to evaluate drug effect and vascular healing following stent implantation.

Summaries of the major animal studies performed to support product safety are included in Table 7.

# X. SUMMARY OF CLINICAL STUDIES

The XIENCE PRIME Stent System safety and effectiveness is derived from the SPIRIT PRIME clinical trial that was conducted under IDE #G090068. The SPIRIT PRIME clinical trial was designed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the XIENCE PRIME family of stent systems in improving coronary luminal diameter in subjects with symptomatic heart disease due to a maximum of two *de novo* native coronary artery lesions, each in a different epicardial vessel. This global trial consists of two separate arms, the Core Size Registry and the Long Lesion Registry. One-year results are presented here and yearly follow-up for clinical parameters through 5 years is ongoing. Given the substantial similarities between the XIENCE PRIME and XIENCE V stent systems, clinical trials previously conducted on the XIENCE V stent are also relevant and included in the Instructions For Use (IFU). For additional details on the SPIRIT family of trials, see the SSED for P070015 (http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf7/P070015b.pdf).

## A. Study Design

The SPIRIT PRIME clinical trial is a prospective, nonrandomized, open-label, multicenter study consisting of two separate arms, the Core Size Registry (stent diameters 2.25, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 mm with stent lengths 8, 18, and $28^{11}$ mm) and the Long Lesion Registry (stent diameters, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 mm with stent lengths 33 and 38 mm) in 505 subjects at up to 75 global sites. For clinical trial design purposes, the 28 mm length stent is included in the Core Size Registry because the historical data on XIENCE V used to develop the comparative performance goal includes stent lengths up to 28 mm. The Long Lesion Registry only includes subjects with at least one 33 and 38 mm length stents as there were limited data on these stent lengths from which to develop a comparative performance goal.

Each subject was to receive treatment in up to two *de novo* native coronary lesions, each lesion in a different epicardial vessel. Subjects in the Core Size Registry were allowed to have: one target lesion treated with the core size XIENCE PRIME stent systems (stent diameters $2.25 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 8, 18, $28\mathrm{mm}$) or two target lesions in separate epicardial vessels, treated with two core size XIENCE PRIME stent systems (stent diameters $2.25 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 8, 18, $28\mathrm{mm}$).

Subjects in the Long Lesion Registry were allowed to have: one target lesion treated with the XIENCE PRIME stent system (stent diameters $2.5 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 33 or $38\mathrm{mm}$) or two target lesions in separate epicardial vessels, treated with two XIENCE PRIME stent system (stent diameters $2.5 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 33 or $38\mathrm{mm}$) or one XIENCE PRIME stent system (stent diameters $2.5 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 33 or $38\mathrm{mm}$) and one XIENCE PRIME stent system (stent diameters $2.25 - 4.0\mathrm{mm}$ with stent lengths 8, 18, $28\mathrm{mm}$). All subjects in the Long Lesion Registry were required to be treated with at least one XIENCE

i The 28 mm length stent was studied in the XIENCE PRIME Core Size Registry. The results of the Core Size Registry are presented in Table 10.

{26}

PRIME stent of 33 or 38 mm in length. For both the Core Size Registry and Long Lesion Registry, planned overlap was not allowed, however overlap was allowed in case of bailout stenting.

The primary endpoint is target lesion failure (TLF) at one year, a composite endpoint of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI), and clinically indicated target lesion revascularization (CI-TLR). The primary endpoint rates of TLF at 1 year (per protocol and per ARC definitions) were compared to a set of pre-specified performance goals (PGs) for both Core Size Registry and Long Lesion Registry as shown below.

The PG for the Core Size Registry was developed utilizing historical data from the SPIRIT III trial, while the PG for the Long Lesion Registry was developed based on a regression analysis conducted on the historical data from the pooled SPIRIT II and III trials. Although the SPIRIT PRIME trial defined TLF based on the ARC definition of MI, the historical SPIRIT II and III trials used to develop the initial PG were based on the per protocol definition of MI. In order to provide a comparison of outcomes using the same definitions for both the treatment arms and PGs, two subsequent analyses, with PGs developed using the same definitions (per protocol and per ARC), were developed and are presented in rows 2 and 3 of the table below.

* The Core Size Registry includes 2.25 - 4.0 mm stent diameters, 8, 18, 28 mm lengths
** The Long Lesion Registry includes 2.5 - 4.0 mm stent diameters, 33 and 38 mm stent lengths

The primary analysis of the SPIRIT PRIME data was performed on the Full Analysis Set (FAS) population which was defined as the subjects who received the XIENCE PRIME stent. The Intent to Treat (ITT) population was defined as the subjects enrolled into the study, regardless of the treatment actually received; this population excludes de-registered subjects.

The clinical trial design for SPIRIT PRIME is summarized in Table 9.

## 2. Follow-up Schedule

All subjects will be followed up to five years. All subjects were required to have a hospital or office follow-up visit at 30 days and 1 year. There was the option for an office or telephone follow-up visits at 180 days and 2-5 years.

## 3. Stent Thrombosis Definitions

Stent Thrombosis (ST) was defined in the protocol as clinical presentation of acute coronary syndrome with angiographic appearance of thrombus within or adjacent to a previously treated target lesion. In the absence of angiography, any unexplained death, or acute MI (ST segment elevation or new Q-wave in the distribution of the target lesion within 30 days. Stent thrombosis was categorized as acute (≤ 1 day), subacute (&gt; 1 day ≤ 30 days) and late (&gt; 30 days).

### Stent thrombosis was defined by ARC criteria as:

- Definite (angiographic confirmation with at least one of the following: acute onset of ischemic symptoms at rest, new ischemic changes suggestive of acute ischemia, typical rise and fall of cardiac biomarkers, or non-occlusive or occlusive thrombus)
- Probable (any unexplained death within the first 30 days or, irrespective of the time after the index procedure, any MI related to documented acute ischemia in the territory of the stent without angiographic confirmation), and
- Possible (any unexplained death from 30 days to end of trial follow-up).

### Timing:

- Acute ST: 0 to 24 hours post stent implantation
- Subacute ST: &gt; 24 hours - 30 days post stent implantation
- Late ST: 30 days to 1 year post stent implantation
- Very late ST: &gt; 1 year post stent implantation

### Level of probability:

- Definite ST - considered to have occurred by either angiographic or pathologic confirmation.
- Probable ST - considered to have occurred after intracoronary stenting in the following cases:
1. Any unexplained death within the first 30 days.

PMA P110019: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
Page 30 of 46

{30}

2. Irrespective of the time after the index procedure, any MI which is related to documented acute ischemia in the territory of the implanted stent without angiographic confirmation of ST and in the absence of any other obvious cause.

- Possible ST - considered to have occurred with any unexplained death following 30 days after the intracoronary stenting until the end of trial follow-up.⁴¹

## B. Accountability of Subjects

**SPIRIT PRIME Core Size Registry**: The Core Size Registry analysis population had a total of 419 subjects. The ITT population consisted of 415 subjects, as four subjects were de-registered. The FAS population (only subjects receiving a XIENCE PRIME stent with stent diameters 2.25 - 4.0 and stent lengths 8, 18, 28 mm) consisted of 413 subjects. Only subjects with available cardiac enzyme data in window (between 8 hours post-procedure and hospital discharge) were included in the main data analysis of the primary and secondary endpoints in the FAS and ITT, resulting in a population of 401. The 401 subjects in the FAS population received a total of 484 XIENCE PRIME stent with stent diameters 2.25 - 4.0 and stent lengths 8, 18, 28 mm. Of the 401 subjects 88.3% (354/401) of these subjects were single target lesion subjects and 11.7% (47/401) were dual target lesion subjects.

**SPIRIT PRIME Long Lesion Registry**: The Long Lesion Registry analysis population had a total of 110 subjects. The ITT population consisted of 110 subjects and the FAS population (only subjects receiving at least one XIENCE PRIME stent with stent diameters 2.5 - 4.0 mm and stent lengths 33 and 38 mm) consisted of 107 subjects. Only subjects with available cardiac enzyme data in window (between 8 hours post-procedure and hospital discharge) were included in the main data analysis of the primary and secondary endpoints in the FAS and ITT, resulting in an ITT population of 106 and a FAS population of 104. The 104 subjects in the FAS population received a total of 105 XIENCE PRIME stent with stent diameters 2.5 - 4.0 mm and stent lengths 33 and 38 mm and 46 XIENCE PRIME stent with stent diameters 2.25 - 4.0 and stent lengths 8, 18, 28 mm.

## D. Safety and Effectiveness Results

The results are presented in Table 10 (Primary endpoint), Table 11 (Core Size Registry Clinical Results), and Table 12 (Long Lesion Registry Clinical Results). The primary endpoints and the components are presented in Figure 3 and Figure 4 for the Core Size Registry and in Figure 5 and Figure 6 for the Long Lesion Registry. These analyses are based on the Full Analysis Set (FAS). The FAS population is defined as subjects who have received at least one XIENCE PRIME stent including bailout. SPIRIT PRIME Core Size and Long Lesion Registries met all pre-specified PGs with statistical significance. The observed TLF rate at one year was 4.5% (18/399) (per protocol defined MI) and 6.5% (26/399) (per ARC defined MI) in the Core Size Registry, and 7.7% (8/104) (per protocol defined MI) and 12.5% (13/104) (per ARC defined MI) in the Long Lesion Registry respectively.

Geriatric Use: The XIENCE PRIME clinical trial did not have an upper age limit. Among the 401 patients in the SPIRIT PRIME Core Size Registry, 167 were older than age 65 and 234 were age 65 or younger. Among the 104 patients in the SPIRIT PRIME Long Lesion Registry, 48 patients were older than age 65 and 56 were age 65 or younger. A post hoc analysis showed no clinically significant differences in clinical endpoints between patients older than age 65 compared to those age 65 years or younger.

## XI. Gender-Based Analysis

Abbott Vascular performed a post hoc evaluation of the SPIRIT PRIME clinical trial for possible sex-based differences in baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes, as well as for any interaction between treatment and sex/gender. The SPIRIT PRIME trial was not designed or powered to study safety or effectiveness differences between sexes, so these analyses are considered exploratory without definitive conclusions.

In the Core Size Registry, 119/401 (29.7%) subjects were female and 282/401 (70.3%) were male. In the Long Lesion Registry, 39/104 (37.5%) subjects were female and 65/104 (62.5%) were male. In comparison, the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) is estimated at 9.2 million in males and 8.4 million in females for adults age 20 and older the United States (i.e., the CAD population is estimated to be 52.2% males and 47.7% females). The disproportionate enrollment distribution in this trial may be partly attributable to gender differences in symptoms and pathophysiology, which may lead to under-diagnosis and under-referral of female patients with CAD. The gender proportions enrolled in this trial are similar to other drug-eluting stent trials.¹,²

Table 13 presents the baseline demographics, risk factors, and angiographic characteristics by gender for subjects in the Core Size Registry. As is consistent with previous literature, female patients at baseline were numerically older and had a higher BMI. Additionally, more females than males had hypertension requiring medication and diabetes mellitus. Table 14 presents the baseline demographics, risk factors, and angiographic characteristics by gender for subjects in the Long Lesion Registry
