BASIL TRIALS Investigators’ Meeting, VSGBI, Manchester, 23 November 2017
Introduction Professor Andrew Bradbury BASIL-2 and 3 Chief Investigator
BASIL-1 Trial • Still the only RCT! • NIHR HTA funding 1998 • Between 1999 and 2003 • 452 SLI patients randomised : • Bypass first (25% prosthetic ) • PBA first (6 stents ) • 75% femoro-popliteal • After 2 years – (vein) bypass better than PBA in terms of: • Amputation free survival • Overall survival • Quality of revascularisation
BASIL- 1: the usual interpretation Patient with SLI due to femoro-popliteal (FP) disease Anticipated life expectancy? < 2 years? > 2 years? Vein? No Angioplasty Yes Bypass
NICE Research Recommendations CLTI recommendations based on BASIL- 1, but… What about infra- popliteal disease? What about drug coated balloons and eluting stents?

Why BASIL-2? “Why do we need BASIL -2 when it is obvious that endovascular revascularisation is the best strategy for almost all patients requiring infra-popliteal intervention for SLI?”
Current best evidence Plain Balloon Angioplasty Immediate technical success of IP angioplasty of 89% (pooled estimate) Outcomes suboptimal at 12-months Mortality 15.1% Major Amputation 14.9% Primary patency 63.1% Re-intervention rate 18.2%
BASIL-1 IP Subgroup Analysis
BASIL-1 IP: overall survival N only 104 but P = 0.06 Vein bypass D 18% HR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.36-1.02 PBA D 22%
BASIL-1 IP: amputation free survival HR=0.68, 95% CI: 0.42-1.10, p = 0.1 Vein bypass D 21% PBA
BASIL-1 IP: relief of rest pain HR=2.19, 95% CI: 1.27-2.78, p=0.005 Vein bypass D 28% PBA
BASIL-1 IP: time to wound healing HR=1.69, 95% CI: 0.88-3.26, p=0.1 D17 % Vein bypass PBA
BASIL-1 IP: Statistical Interpretation While the BASIL-1 results do not meet standard criteria for statistical significance, the direction of the effect consistently favours bypass and confidence intervals rule out the possibility of clinically important effects in favour of balloon angioplasty
BASIL-1 outcomes outdated? NO , despite fewer technical failures, AFS and OS after IP BASIL-1 P = 0.3 endovascular Contemporary Amputation free survival intervention in our unit (HEFT) are currently ( 2009-2014 ) P = 0.2 no better than those BASIL-1 observed in Overall Survival BASIL-1 ( 1999-2004 ) Contemporary
Why BASIL-2? Because , there is no evidence to support endovascular intervention as the preferred treatment for SLI due to IP disease in patients who can have a vein bypass Indeed, what data we have indicates that endovascular is unlikely to be better and should usually be reserved for those who cannot have distal vein bypass

The academic case for Mr Lewis Meecham University of Birmingham BASIL-3 Research Fellow
Why do we need BASIL-3? “There are already randomised controlled trials between drug eluting technology and plain balloon angioplasty and we ‘know’ the outcomes are better, why do we need a new trial?”

Evidence for DCB/DES in CLTI Most trials are industry sponsored Most patients are claudicants Most CLTI patients have rest pain only (Rutherford 4) Highly selected (centres, patients, lesions) Exclusions and short (incomplete) follow-up Few “head to head” comparisons Anatomic, not clinical, end-points No cost-effectiveness analysis UK NICE: no credible evidence of real world clinical benefit at current ‘willingness to pay’ thresholds; await BASIL-3 before recommending DCB/DES
