It remains to be determined whether adding an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) to antiplatelet therapy has a therapeutic benefit on in-stent restenosis. After successful coronary stenting, 165 patients (167 lesions) were randomly assigned to a basal (aspirin 162 mg + cilostazol 200 mg/day), ACEI (basal treatment + quinapril 10 mg or perindopril 4 mg/day), or ARB (basal treatment + losartan 50 mg/day) treatment group. Quantitative coronary angiography was performed before, immediately following, and 6 months after stenting. Follow-up coronary angiography was completed in 126 patients (128 lesions). Restenosis rates tended to be higher (12, 26, and 12% for the basal, ACEI, and ARB groups, respectively), and target lesion revascularization rates were higher in the ACEI group than in the other groups (9, 23,* and 5%, respectively, *P &lt; 0.05 versus basal group). Moreover, late lumen loss was higher in the ACEI group than in the basal group (0.60 +/- 0.55, 0.98 +/- 0.61* and 0.73 +/- 0.64 mm in the basal, ACEI, and ARB groups, respectively). The combinations of an ACEI or ARB with aspirin and cilostazol are ineffective for the prevention of in-stent restenosis, and an ACEI may even promote intimal proliferation after stent implantation.
