Ethnic Differences in Thrombotic Profiles of Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients and Relationship to Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Comparison of East Asian and White subjects. Thromb Haemost 2024; 124:501-516. [PMID: 38158199 PMCID: PMC11126334 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1777794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND East Asians (EAs), compared to white Caucasians (W), have a lower risk of ischemic heart disease and a higher risk of bleeding with antithrombotic medications. The underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. OBJECTIVES We sought to compare thrombotic profiles of EA and W patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and relate these to cardiovascular outcomes. METHODS In a prospective study in the United Kingdom and Korea, blood samples from patients (n = 515) with ST- or non-ST-elevation MI (STEMI and NSTEMI) were assessed using the Global Thrombosis Test, measuring thrombotic occlusion (OT) and endogenous fibrinolysis (lysis time [LT]). Patients were followed for 1 year for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and bleeding. RESULTS EA patients showed reduced OT (longer OT) compared to W (646 seconds [470-818] vs. 436 seconds [320-580], p < 0.001), with similar LT. In STEMI, OT (588 seconds [440-759] vs. 361 seconds [274-462], p < 0.001) and LT (1,854 seconds [1,389-2,729] vs. 1,338 seconds [1,104-1,788], p < 0.001) were longer in EA than W. In NSTEMI, OT was longer (OT: 734 seconds [541-866] vs. 580 seconds [474-712], p < 0.001) and LT shorter (1519 seconds [1,058-2,508] vs. 1,898 seconds [1,614-2,806], p = 0.004) in EA than W patients. MACE was more frequent in W than EA (6.3 vs. 1.9%, p = 0.014) and bleeding infrequent. While OT was unrelated, LT was a strong independent predictor of MACE event after adjustment for risk factors (hazard ratio: 3.70, 95% confidence interval: 1.43-9.57, p = 0.007), predominantly in W patients, and more so in STEMI than NSTEMI patients. CONCLUSION EA patients exhibit different global thrombotic profiles to W, associated with a lower rate of cardiovascular events.

Indian Heart J 2024; 76:133-135. [PMID: 38485052 PMCID: PMC11143503 DOI: 10.1016/j.ihj.2024.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Evidence on comparative effectiveness and safety of prasugrel and ticagrelor post-percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is scarce in Indian population. In a 1:1 propensity score-matched cohort with 71 individuals in each group, the incidence of a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or coronary revascularization was not significantly different in prasugrel and ticagrelor group (7.04% vs 9.86%; absolute difference, 2.8%; HR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.21-2.1; p = 0.49). There was no significant difference in bleeding (5.63% vs 9.86%; absolute difference, -4.20%; 95% CI, -13.0%-4.5%) and dyspnea (7.04% vs 12.7%; absolute difference, -5.60%; 95% CI, -15.4%-4.1%).

Abstract
BACKGROUND This is a sub-analysis of the Personalized Antithrombotic Therapy for Coronary Heart Disease after PCI (PATH-PCI) trial in China to explore the relationship between smoking and outcomes following personalized antiplatelet therapy (PAT) in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS As a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled and open-label trial, the PATH-PCI trial randomized CCS patients undergoing PCI into standard group or personalized group guided by a novel platelet function test (PFT), from December 2016 to February 2018. All patients were divided into smokers and nonsmokers according to their smoking status. Subsequently, we underwent a 180-day follow-up evaluation. The primary endpoint was the net adverse clinical events (NACE). RESULTS Regardless of smoking status, in the incidence of NACE, there was a reduction with PAT but that the reductions are not statistically significant. In the incidence of bleeding events, we found no statistically significant difference between two groups (smokers: 2.0% vs. 1.4%, HR = 1.455, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.595-3.559, p = .412; nonsmokers: 2.2% vs. 1.8%, HR = 1.228, 95% CI: 0.530-2.842, p = .632). In smokers, PAT reduced major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) by 48.7% (3.0% vs. 5.9%, HR = 0.513, 95% CI: 0.290-0.908, p = .022), compared with standard antiplatelet therapy (SAT). PAT also reduced the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) but there was no statistically difference in the reductions (p > .05). In nonsmokers, PAT reduced MACCE and MACE by 51.5% (3.3% vs. 6.7%, HR = 0.485, 95% CI: 0.277-0.849, p = .011) and 63.5% (1.8% vs. 4.9%, HR = 0.365, 95% CI: 0.178-0.752, p = .006), respectively. When testing p-values for interaction, we found there was no significant interaction of smoking status with treatment effects of PAT (pint-NACE = .184, pint-bleeding = .660). CONCLUSION Regardless of smoking, PAT reduced the MACE and MACCE, with no significant difference in bleeding. This suggests that PAT was an recommendable regimen to CCS patients after PCI, taking into consideration both ischemic and bleeding risk.

Abstract
The exposure to ticagrelor (BRILINTA) is higher in the East Asian population compared with the White population, thus, East Asians have an increased risk of bleeding. We developed a population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model of ticagrelor based on a randomized 3 × 3 crossover study in healthy subjects. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome was simulated based on this model. Following this, eight machine learning (ML) methods were used to construct bleeding risk models. Variables included in the final bleeding risk model were age, hypertension, body weight, AUC, drinking status, calcium channel blockers, antidiabetic medications, β-blockers, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, transient ischemic attack, sex, and proton pump inhibitor. In terms of F1 scores and area under the curve of receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC), the Random Forest model performed best among all models, with an F1 score of 0.73 and ROC-AUC of 0.81. Moreover, the PopPK model and ML algorithm were used to bridge the real-world data to build a bleeding risk prediction model based on drug exposure and clinical information. Using this model, a ticagrelor regimen that is associated with a lower risk of bleeding in individuals can be obtained. This model should be further validated prospectively in clinical settings.

Low-Dose Aspirin for Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Events Comparing East Asians With Westerners: A Meta-Analysis. JACC. ASIA 2023; 3:846-862.

Abstract
Background East Asians have shown different risk profiles for both thrombophilia and bleeding than Western counterparts. Objectives The authors sought to evaluate the effect of low-dose aspirin for primary prevention between these populations. Methods We searched randomized clinical trials (RCTs) for intervention with low-dose aspirin (≤100 mg once daily) in participants without symptomatic cardiovascular disease until December 31, 2021. The number of events between the arms was extracted for analysis. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) and risk differences (RDs) were analyzed in each population. Outcomes included a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and major bleeding (intracranial hemorrhage and major gastrointestinal bleeding). Results Two RCTs included 17,003 East Asians, and 9 RCTs had 117,467 Western participants. Aspirin treatment showed a similar effect in reducing the MACE rate (RR of East Asians: 0.87; 95% CI: 0.71-1.05; RR of Westerners: 0.90; 95% CI: 0.85-0.95) (Pinteraction = 0.721). In contrast, the risk of major bleeding during aspirin vs control was greater in the East Asian population (RR: 2.48; 95% CI: 1.86-3.30) compared with the Western population (RR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.26-1.66) (Pinteraction = 0.001), which was driven by more frequent gastrointestinal bleeding (RR of East Asians: 3.29; 95% CI: 2.26-4.80 vs RR of Westerners: 1.56; 95% CI: 1.29-1.88) (Pinteraction < 0.001). The net RDs (RD of MACE plus RD of major bleeding) were 8.04 and 0.72 per 1,000 persons in East Asian and Western participants, indicating 124 and 1,389 of the net number needed to harm, respectively. Conclusions Low-dose aspirin for primary prevention in East Asians must be cautiously prescribed because of the increased risk of major bleeding relative to Western counterparts.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to explore the contribution of genotype-guided selection of P2Y12 inhibitors on prognosis in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) or chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS Totally, 2063 patients were included. They were divided into empiric treatment group (n = 1025) and individualized treatment group (n = 1038) depending on whether taken CYP2C19 genetic testing. The incidences of clinical endpoint events were compared in two groups at 1-year follow-up. The effective endpoint events were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), including all-cause mortality, in-stent restenosis, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke and severe recurrent ischemia. Meanwhile, the safe endpoint was bleeding events defined by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria. RESULTS Finally, 66.83% patients were diagnosed with ACS and 33.17% patients were diagnosed with CCS in empiric group. 68.11% patients were diagnosed with ACS and 31.89% patients were diagnosed with CCS in individualized group. At 1-year follow-up, individualized group showed lower MACEs rate than empiric group (19.61% vs. 10.69%, HR: 1.915; 95% CI: 1.534 to 2.392; P < 0.0001, log-rank test; adjusted HR: 1.983; 95% CI: 1.573 to 2.501; P = 0.000, cox proportional hazards regression models), while bleeding events were significantly less common in empiric group than in individualized group (7.32% vs. 10.40%, HR: 0.693; 95% CI: 0.519 to 0.926; P = 0.0132, log-rank test; adjusted HR: 0.695; 95% CI: 0.518 to 0.933; P = 0.016, cox proportional hazards regression models). It was mainly manifested in BARC class 1 bleeding, which did not warrant the interruption of antiplatelet therapy (ITA). Further, subgroup analyses illustrated that no significant difference existed in cumulative MACEs-free survival rate between all treatment arms of individualized group (P = 0.6579 by log-rank test), and CYP2C19 intermediate metabolizer (IM) genetype appeared to be significantly associated with bleeding events for patients treated with ticagrelor (clopidogrel vs. ticagrelor: 6.80% vs. 14.88%; adjusted HR:0.440; 95% CI: 0.246 to 0.787; adjusted P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Genotype-guided selection of P2Y12 inhibitor made a very positive contribution on the prognosis in Chinese ACS/CCS patients undergoing PCI. Instead of intensifying antiplatelet strategies, conventional-dose clopidogrel could be recommended as P2Y12 inhibitor after weighing MACEs and bleeding events in CYP2C19 IM patients.

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes Between Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel in East-Asian Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome: Large Cohort Study. Am J Cardiovasc Drugs 2023; 23:573-581. [PMID: 37610643 DOI: 10.1007/s40256-023-00603-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
AIM A high risk of bleeding is observed in East Asian patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Therefore, the choice between two antiplatelet therapy drugs, ticagrelor and clopidogrel, remains controversial in this population with ACS. This study aimed to use a large cohort database to assess the clinical outcomes of ticagrelor and clopidogrel therapy, including major bleeding, recurrent ACS, and mortality, in this population. METHODS Between January 2009 and December 2019, 43,696 patients were diagnosed with ACS based on the medical history (International Classification of Diseases [ICD] code) of the Chang Gung Research Database. After excluding patients without percutaneous coronary intervention, with concurrent medical problems, and on non-standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) or a single antiplatelet agent, 18,046 patients were recruited for analysis. Ticagrelor- and clopidogrel-based DAPT were administered to 3666 patients and 14,380 patients, respectively. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. A total of 4225 patients were defined as a high-bleeding-risk subgroup according to Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) score (met one major or two minor criteria), of which 466 and 3759 patients received ticagrelor- and clopidogrel-based DAPT, respectively. RESULTS Before propensity score matching (PSM), younger age, higher prevalence of male sex, and higher body mass index were noted in the ticagrelor-based DAPT group in the whole cohort and high-bleeding-risk subgroup. After PSM, no difference in baseline characteristics and comorbidities between ticagrelor-based and clopidogrel-based DAPT groups in the whole cohort and high-bleeding-risk subgroup was noted. The Kaplan-Meier curves of recurrent ACS and major bleeding were significantly lower in the ticagrelor-based DAPT group than in the clopidogrel-based DAPT group, and that of cardiovascular (CV) and all-cause mortality showed no significant differences. After PSM, in the high-bleeding-risk subgroup, the Kaplan-Meier curve of recurrent ACS was significantly lower in the ticagrelor-based DAPT group than in the clopidogrel-based DAPT group, and that of major bleeding, CV, and all-cause mortality showed no significant differences. CONCLUSION In this large cohort study, patients receiving ticagrelor-based DAPT were at lower risk of recurrent ACS compared to those receiving clopidogrel-based DAPT, especially in the patients with myocardial infarction. Ticagrelor-based DAPT did not result in a higher risk of major bleeding in the whole ACS population and high-bleeding-risk subgroup. The rate of CV and all-cause mortality were similar between both the groups.

Clin Transl Sci 2023; 16:1594-1605. [PMID: 37448335 PMCID: PMC10499421 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Skepticism exists among healthcare workers and patients regarding the efficacy and safety of generic medication, despite its potential to lower healthcare costs. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of a generic clopidogrel and its brand-name counterpart for secondary prevention in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, we identified 49,325 patients who were hospitalized for AMI between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2013 and prescribed either generic or brand-name clopidogrel. Among them, 2419 (4.9%) were prescribed the generic clopidogrel. After propensity score matching, both the generic and brand-name groups consisted of 2382 patients. The primary efficacy outcome was a composite of myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, ischemic stroke, and all-cause death. The primary safety outcome was major bleeding requiring hospitalization. At a mean follow-up of 2.5 years, the generic and brand-name clopidogrel groups had comparable risks of primary efficacy outcome (41.9% vs. 42%; hazard ratio [HR] 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.88-1.04), and the risks of the individual components were also similar. There were no significant differences between the two groups in major bleeding (7.9% vs. 7.9%; HR 0.99; 95% CI 0.81-1.21). Subgroup analyses also revealed no statistically significant interactions between the treatment effect and various subgroups. In this retrospective database analysis, the generic clopidogrel was comparable to its brand-name counterpart regarding cardiovascular and bleeding outcomes for the treatment of patients with AMI.

PLoS One 2023; 18:e0289721.

Abstract
From the restriction of access to primary percutaneous coronary intervention, about 46% of patients with ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (STE-ACS) received fibrinolytic therapy as a reperfusion strategy; streptokinase is frequently used in Thailand. Despite the guidelines recommending potent P2Y12 inhibitors among these patients, the data are limited, especially among patients with STE-ACS post streptokinase therapy. The study was proposed to describe factors for P2Y12 inhibitors selection and evaluate outcomes of pharmacoinvasively treated STE-ACS receiving ticagrelor compared with clopidogrel in Thailand. We performed a retrospective observational study of patients with STE-ACS post streptokinase therapy followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary stent placement and receiving ticagrelor or clopidogrel as P2Y12 inhibitor treatment from January 2017 to June 2021. The primary outcomes described factors for P2Y12 inhibitor selection and evaluated safety outcomes with inverse probability weight (IPW) adjustment. The secondary outcome was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction and stroke. The median time from streptokinase therapy to initiating ticagrelor in the switch group was 25.7 (IQR, 1.9-4.4) hours. The factors related to switching from clopidogrel to ticagrelor included young age, history of coronary artery disease (CAD), dose of streptokinase and use of intravascular imaging. Any bleeding events occurred among 83 patients (41.71%) in the switch group and 83 patients (41.09%) in the no switch group (adjusted HR 1.04, 95% CI 0.75-1.44; p = 0.826). The composite of efficacy outcomes occurred in 6 patients in the switch group (3.02%) and 12 patients (5.94%) in the no switch group (adjusted HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.21-1.57; p = 0.279). Conclusion: In real practice, ticagrelor switching among patients with STE-ACS post streptokinase therapy did not differ regarding safety outcomes and composite of efficacy outcomes compared with clopidogrel.

Abstract
Nuisance bleeding (NB) without urgent medical attention is rarely characterized despite its frequent occurrence in patients with cerebral aneurysms undergoing flow diversion (FD) who are maintained on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). This study explored the risk factors for NB. Patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms who underwent intervention using FD (July 2018 to May 2022) and had follow-up data were enrolled. Patient demographics, clinical characteristics, aneurysm features and follow-up data were analysed. Bleeding complications were classified as NB, internal bleeding and alarming bleeding. NB was characterized by easy bruising, bleeding from small cuts and nonfatal petechiae and ecchymosis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine risk factors for NB. This study assessed 121 patients. Of these, 52 (43.0%) patients had NB. Compared with the non-bleeding group, the NB group had more females (82.7% vs. 56.5%; p = 0.003), lower smoking rate (7.7% vs. 23.2%; p = 0.027) and smaller aneurysms (6.65 mm [4.60-9.60 mm] vs. 8.82 mm [5.65-15.65 mm]; p = 0.007) and had more patients maintained on ticagrelor-containing DAPT regimen (90.4% vs. 66.7%; p = 0.002). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that ticagrelor-containing DAPT regimen (odds ratio, 3.91; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-11.87; p = 0.016) was associated with NB. These results suggest that NB is a common bleeding complaint in patients on DAPT. In patients undergoing FD, DAPT with ticagrelor was the only independent risk factor for NB.

Abstract
PURPOSE Asians often face the problems of clopidogrel resistance and East Asian paradox. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of P2Y12 inhibitors, including low-dose prasugrel 2.5 mg, on the P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) in the chronic phase after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS A total of 348 patients were studied. PRU was measured 6-12 months after PCI and subsequently, 6 months later using a P2Y12 assay, respectively. This study evaluated the proportion of bleeding risk (PRU ≤ 85) and ischemic risk (PRU ≥ 239) as primary endpoints, and the prediction of bleeding risk and ischemic risk using multivariable logistic regression analysis. RESULTS At baseline, 136 patients (39%) received prasugrel 3.75 mg, 48 patients (14%) received prasugrel 2.5 mg, and 164 patients (47%) received clopidogrel 75 mg. Clopidogrel 75 mg had a significantly higher proportion of ischemic risk within one year after PCI than the other groups, and was an independent predictor for ischemic risk with reference of prasugrel 3.75 mg. In addition, switching from clopidogrel 75 mg to prasugrel 2.5 mg significantly lowered and aggregated the PRU value. Whereas, dose reduction of prasugrel had a significantly lower proportion of bleeding risk over one year after PCI than the continuation of prasugrel 3.75 mg, and was an independent predictor for bleeding risk with reference of continuation of prasugrel 3.75 mg. CONCLUSIONS Prasugrel 2.5 mg has a lower ischemic risk and a more stable PRU value compared with clopidogrel treatment. Prasugrel also contributes to a decline in bleeding risk with concomitant dose reduction.

Abstract
Drug-eluting stent (DES) recipients require 6–12 months of dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) and long-term aspirin mono-antiplatelet treatment (MAPT). Given the diversity of contemporary antiplatelet agents, antiplatelet treatment (APT) selection is becoming more complicated. We evaluated 15-year APT trends based on nationwide prescription data of 79,654 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using DESs from 2002 to 2018 in Korea. DAPT (80.7%) was the most preferred initial APT post-PCI. Many DES recipients received prolonged DAPT (post-PCI 3 years: 41.0%; 10 years: 27.7%). There was a noticeable delay in DAPT-to-MAPT conversion from the mid to late 2000s (after the late-stent thrombosis concerns of first-generation DESs raised); the conversion after that was similar during the 2010s, occurring most robustly at 12–18 months post-PCI. Clopidogrel had long and increasingly been used for MAPT, surpassing aspirin. The recent increase in newer P2Y12 inhibitor prescriptions was noted. The patients treated with newer P2Y12 inhibitors were more likely younger men and presented with acute myocardial infarction. Real-world APT is evolving, and guideline–practice gaps exist. Further studies exploring the impact of diverse APT strategies on patient outcomes are expected to provide insights into optimal APT that can sophisticatedly balance the ischemic and bleeding risks.

Clinical Impact of CYP2C19 Genotype on Clopidogrel-Based Antiplatelet Therapy After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2023; 16:829-843.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although there is a growing body of evidence that CYP2C19 genotyping can be beneficial when considering treatment with clopidogrel after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), whether a genotype-guided strategy can be generally adopted in routine practice remains unclear among East Asians. OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate long-term outcomes of patients undergoing clopidogrel-based antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation according to CYP2C19 genotypes. METHODS From the nationwide multicenter PTRG-DES (Platelet function and genoType-Related long-term proGnosis in DES-treated patients) consortium, patients who underwent CYP2C19 genotyping were selected and classified according to CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele: rapid metabolizers (RMs) or normal metabolizers (NMs) vs intermediate metabolizers (IMs) or poor metabolizers (PMs). The primary outcome was a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and stent thrombosis at 5 years after the index procedure. RESULTS Of 8,163 patients with CYP2C19 genotyping, 56.7% presented with acute coronary syndrome. There were 3,098 (37.9%) in the RM or NM group, 3,906 (47.9%) in the IM group, and 1,159 (14.2%) in the PM group. IMs or PMs were associated with an increased risk of 5-year primary outcome compared with RMs or NMs (HRadj: 1.42; 95% CI: 1.01-1.98; P = 0.041), and the effect was more pronounced in the first year (HRadj: 1.67; 95% CI: 1.10-2.55; P = 0.016). The prognostic implication of being an IM and PM was significant in acute coronary syndrome patients (HRadj: 1.88; 95% CI: 1.20-2.93; P = 0.005) but not in those with stable angina (HRadj: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.54-1.55; P = 0.751) (interaction P = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS Among East Asians with clopidogrel-based antiplatelet therapy after DES implantation, CYP2C19 genotyping could stratify patients who were likely to have an increased risk of atherothrombotic events.

Real-world evidence of switching P2Y12 receptor-inhibiting therapies to prasugrel after PCI in patients with ACS: results from EFF-K registry. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:6. [PMID: 36624388 PMCID: PMC9827633 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-022-03034-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Potent P2Y12 inhibitors are recommended for up to 12 months after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, the prescription pattern is diverse in real world practice, which includes various switching between antiplatelet regimens. In this study, we analyzed the prescription patterns of prasugrel, and assessed the safety and effectiveness of P2Y12 inhibitors switching patterns in a real world registry of patients subjected to PCI after ACS. METHODS The EFF-K study included 3077 ACS patients receiving prasugrel-based dual antiplatelet therapy. The cohort was divided into those who were administered with prasugrel as the primary antiplatelet treatment (naïve cohort) or as a substitute agent after clopidogrel or ticagrelor pre-treatment (switch cohort). The primary endpoint was a net adverse clinical event (NACE; a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or TIMI major bleeding unrelated to coronary-artery bypass grafting). RESULTS A total of 3077 patients diagnosed with ACS were included in the analysis. Among the total population, 726 patients (23.6%) were classed as the naïve cohort and 2351 patients (76.4%) as the switch cohort. Baseline characteristics showed that the switch cohort had more comorbidities, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart failure and previous PCI. The major cause of switching to prasugrel in the switch cohort was the necessity for a more potent antiplatelet agent (56.3%). During a 12-month follow-up period, 51 patients (1.7%) experienced at least one NACE. The incidence of NACE did not differ between the naïve and switch cohort (1.5% vs. 1.7%, Hazard ratio 1.17, 95% Confidence interval 0.56-2.43, P = 0.677). In subgroup analysis, no significant interaction was observed between the treatment strategy and the incidence of NACE across various subgroups. CONCLUSIONS Dual antiplatelet therapy with prasugrel seems to be safe and effective both as a primary treatment and as a substitute for other P2Y12 inhibitors in a real world registry of Asian ACS patients receiving PCI.

Abstract
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is an acquired syndrome characterized by widespread intravascular activation of coagulation, which can be caused by infectious and noninfectious insults, such as trauma, postcardiac arrest syndrome, and malignant diseases. At present, diagnosis and treatment of DIC clearly differ between Japan and Western countries; in Japan, DIC has long been considered a therapeutic target, and much evidence on DIC has been published. However, there has recently been no international consensus on whether DIC should be a therapeutic target with anticoagulant therapy. This review describes the coagulofibrinolytic system abnormalities associated with sepsis and discusses related management strategies. It also explores the reasons why DIC is perceived differently in different regions. There is a major discrepancy between diagnostic and treatment options in Japan, which are based on holistic assessments of trials, as well as the results of post hoc subgroup analyses and observational studies, and those in Western countries, which are based mainly on the results of sepsis mega trials, especially randomized controlled trials. The differences might also be due to various patient factors in each region, especially racial characteristics in thrombolytic mechanisms, and differences in interpretation of evidence for candidate drugs. Hence, Japanese researchers need to distribute their high-quality clinical research data not only to Japan but also to the rest of the world.

Abstract
Single antiplatelet therapy represents the cornerstone of thrombosis prevention in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), consisting of aspirin plus a P2Y12 inhibitor, is the standard of care for patients with acute coronary syndrome or undergoing both coronary and peripheral percutaneous interventions. Recent data suggest the efficacy of DAPT also after minor stroke. In this setting, a large body of evidence has documented that genetic and acquired patients' characteristics may affect the magnitude of platelet inhibition induced by antiplatelet agents. The implementation of tools allowing the identification and prediction of platelet inhibition has recently been shown to improve outcomes, leading to an optimal balance between antithrombotic efficacy and bleeding risk. We are therefore clearly moving towards tailored antiplatelet therapy. The aim of this paper is to summarize the available evidence on the evaluation of platelet inhibition in patients with coronary, peripheral, or cerebrovascular atherosclerosis. We will here focus on antiplatelet therapy based on both aspirin and P2Y12 inhibitors. In addition, we provide practical insights into the clinical settings in which it appears reasonable to implement antiplatelet therapy monitoring.

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has been the mainstay treatment to reduce ischemic events, such as myocardial infarction or stroke, in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The development of potent P2Y12 inhibitors (ticagrelor and prasugrel) has helped to further reduce ischemic events, particularly among high-risk patients. Meanwhile, the evolution of newer generations of drug-eluting stents are also improving outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention. Research studies on antiplatelet therapy in recent years have focused on balancing ischemic and bleeding risks through different strategies, which include P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy, escalation and de-escalation, and extended DAPT. Because results from the large number of clinical studies may sometimes appear conflicting, this review aims to summarize recent advances, and demonstrate that they are aligned by a general principle, namely, strategies may be adopted based on treatment aims for specific patients at several time points. Another aim of this review is to outline the important considerations for using antiplatelet therapy in Asian patients, in whom there is a greater prevalence of CYP2C19 loss-of-function mutations, and a common increased risk of bleeding, despite high platelet reactivity (the so-called "East Asian Paradox").

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guidelines on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) recommend at least 12 months of a P2Y12 inhibitor and low dose aspirin in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with a stent. Since that recommendation, several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have studied an abbreviated duration of DAPT in ACS. Therefore, we sought to perform a meta-analysis of RCTs comparing 3- versus 12-month DAPT in patients presenting with ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central databases were searched until July 31, 2022, for RCTs comparing 3- versus 12-month DAPT in patients with ACS undergoing PCI. Outcomes assessed were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), cardiovascular mortality, all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), stent thrombosis (ST) and bleeding. A random-effects model was used to calculate pooled relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS We included 5 trials comprising 16,781 patients with an ACS that underwent PCI. There was no significant difference in MACE (RR: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.76-1.11), cardiovascular mortality (RR: 1.26; 95% CI: 0.38-4.17), or all-cause mortality (RR: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.48-1.77) between the 2 groups. In addition, there was no difference in rates of MI (RR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.74-1.30), or ST (RR: 1.30; 95% CI: 0.55-3.05) between 3- and 12-month DAPT. However, compared with 12-month DAPT, 3-month DAPT significantly reduced risk of major bleeding (RR: 0.53; 95% CI: 0.43-0.64). CONCLUSIONS In patients with ACS undergoing PCI, 3-month DAPT reduced risk of bleeding without evidence of harm.

Abstract
BackgroundAntiplatelet therapy is crucial for managing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and reducing adverse ischemic events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents. However, the ideal P2Y12 inhibitor for patients—particularly East Asians—with AMI and low platelet levels remains unknown. We evaluated the impact of various potencies of P2Y12 receptors on major cardiovascular outcomes of AMI patients with thrombocytopenia in Korea.MethodsWe analyzed the clinical and outcome data of 800 AMI patients with baseline platelet counts <150 × 103/μL who underwent PCI between November 2011 and June 2015. All patient data were obtained from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry–National Institutes of Health registry. Subjects were allocated to group A (n = 244; treated with potent P2Y12 inhibitors) or group B (n = 556; treated with clopidogrel). The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs).ResultsAt the 3-year follow-up, clinical outcomes appeared better in group A than in Group B. However, after propensity score weighting-adjusted analysis, these findings were statistically attenuated, showing a similar incidence of MACCEs between the two groups.ConclusionsClopidogrel may be reasonable for patients with low platelet counts and is associated with comparable outcomes to potent P2Y12 inhibitors for Korean AMI patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The decision to shorten the duration of DAPT following PCI in patients with ACS remains controversial because of the concern for increased ischemic events. METHODS We performed a comprehensive literature search in seven databases to explore the efficacy of 1 to 3 months of DAPT in patients who underwent PCI for ACS. Randomized controlled trials that compared 1 to 3 months with 6 to 12 months of DAPT after PCI for ACS were identified. Integrated hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated by random effects model for each prespecified outcome of interest. Meta-regression analyses were performed to examine the association of outcomes with select patient characteristics. RESULTS A total of 9 randomized controlled trials consisting of 25,907 patients were included. There was no difference in the hazard of NACE (HR 0.92, 95% CI 0.79-1.07) and MACE (HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.78-1.17) between 1 and 3 months of DAPT and 6 to 12 months of DAPT. However, implementing 1 to 3 months of DAPT was associated with lower hazard of both any bleeding (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.46-0.66) and major bleeding (HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.36-0.62). Meta-regression revealed a nonsignificant but increasing trend of both NACE and MACE with greater proportion of left main and left anterior descending coronary artery lesions and greater proportion of STEMI included in the trials. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that 1 to 3 months of DAPT has similar efficacy for preventing ischemic events with reduced bleeding risk compared with 6 to 12 months of DAPT.

Abstract
The benefits of potent antithrombotic therapy usually come at the expense of a higher risk of bleeding. The efficacy and safety of ticagrelor in elderly East Asian populations remains debated due to the concerns about the imbalance of ischemic and bleeding risks. This study aimed to compare the impact of clopidogrel with ticagrelor on clinical outcomes in East Asian patients aged ≥75 years with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) using data from an institutional registry. We assessed the treatment effect of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel based on propensity scores and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models. A total of 2775 ACS patients were included, of which 235 (8.5%) were treated with ticagrelor. The primary efficacy outcome occurred in 11.9% of patients treated with ticagrelor versus 8.8% treated with clopidogrel. There was no significant association between treatment with ticagrelor and a lower risk of the primary efficacy outcome (p = .156). However, the incidences of all-cause death (hazard ratio [HR] 1.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02 to 2.79) and major bleeding (adjusted HR 2.20, 95% CI 1.06 to 4.56) were significantly higher in patients treated with ticagrelor than clopidogrel. In elderly patients with ACS from East Asia, the efficacy of clopidogrel was comparable to ticagrelor, while ticagrelor is associated with an increased risk of mortality and major bleeding.

Abstract
Background CYP2C19 genetic variation and clinical factors have been proved to be related with clopidogrel resistance (CR) in adults, while the presence of CR in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) was seldom reported. Our objective was to evaluate KD patients’ response to clopidogrel treatment and determine whether CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms and laboratory indicators are associated with CR in this population. Methods This was a prospective and single-center study. We recruited children with KD hospitalized in the cardiology department at the Children’s Hospital Capital Institute of Pediatrics between January 2019 and October 2021, and the distribution of the CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms was assessed. According to the light transmission aggregometry (LTA) test results, KD patients who were treated with clopidogrel were divided into CR group and non-CR (NCR) group. We also analyzed the influence of CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms and laboratory indicators on CR in children with KD. Results (1) A total of 346 children with KD were evaluated for the genotypic and phenotypic distributions of CYP2C19. Loss-of-function (LOF) mutated allele was included in 56.9% of CYP2C19 genotypes, and their corresponding phenotypes were intermediate metabolizers (46.2%) and poor metabolizers (10.7%). (2) The incidence of CR in this study population was 31.4%. The multivariate logistic regression showed that carrying CYP2C19 LOF allele (OR, 3.922; 95%CI, 1.504–10.282; P = 0.005) and high levels of low-density lipoprotein (OR, 1.675; 95%CI, 1.069–2.623; P = 0.024) were independent risk factor for CR, while low levels of high-density lipoprotein (OR, 0.120; 95%CI, 0.020, 0.734; P = 0.022) was an independent protective factor for CR. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve of the multivariate logistic regression model (including high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, and CYP2C19 LOF allele carriers) for predicting CR was 0.769 (95% CI, 0.674–0.863; P < 0.001). The sensitivity and specificity were 70.3 and 74.0%, respectively. Conclusion Carrying CYP2C19 LOF allele, low levels of high-density lipoprotein, and high levels of low-density lipoprotein were independent risk factors for CR in children with KD in China. This may benefit pediatricians in choosing appropriate individualized antiplatelet therapy.

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Drug-Eluting Stents Implantation in East Asians: A Network Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2022; 80:216-225. [PMID: 35561287 DOI: 10.1097/fjc.0000000000001288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is essential to prevent the risk of ischemia events, but it is difficult to avoid concurrent bleeding events. East Asians are associated with a higher tendency of bleeding than Caucasians, which may affect the DAPT duration. Therefore, this network meta-analysis to explore optimum DAPT duration for East Asians. The related randomized controlled trials that compared the different DAPT duration in East Asian patients were included by searching PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library database. The outcomes included myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, all-cause death, stroke, and major bleeding. In addition, net adverse cardiac and cardiovascular events was defined as a composite outcome in this study. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals for end point events by the fixed effects model in the Bayesian's network frame. We included a total of 12 randomized controlled trials with 30,640 patients. Compared with 12-month DAPT, 1- to 3-month DAPT is effective in myocardial infarction (OR 0.72, 0.46-1.08), stents thrombosis (OR 1.27, 0.59-2.84), all-cause death (OR 0.91, 0.65-1.28), and stroke (OR 0.89, 0.57-1.39). The 1- to 3-month DAPT was associated with a lower risk of major bleeding compared with 12-month DAPT (OR 0.55, 0.4-0.76), 6-month DAPT (OR 0.54, 0.31-0.94), and >12-month DAPT (OR 0.43, 0.28-0.65). In addition, more than 12 months of DAPT did not reduce the incidence of myocardial infarction (OR 0.75, 0.51-1.11) and increased the risk of major bleeding (OR 1.28, 0.88-1.87) compared with 12-month DAPT. The 1- to 3-month DAPT was more secure and effective than the other 3 DAPT strategies. Although East Asians have a higher risk of bleeding, more than 12 months of DAPT does not increase this incidence of major bleeding.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) plus antithrombotic strategy in patients with coronary artery diseases compared with antithrombotic strategy alone. We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Chinese Biomedical Medical Literature databases to retrieve randomized controlled trials investigating PPIs combined with antithrombotic strategy in coronary artery diseases. The primary efficacy outcome was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). The primary safety outcome was gastrointestinal events. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, significant bleeding from gastroduodenal lesions, and gastroduodenal ulcer. Overall, 43,943 patients were enrolled from 19 trials. The incidence of MACCE [relative risk (RR) 1.05; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.96-1.15], all-cause death (RR 0.84; 95% CI 0.69-1.01), cardiovascular death (RR 0.88; 95% CI 0.69-1.12), myocardial infarction (RR 0.98; 95% CI 0.88-1.09), stent thrombosis (RR 1.01; 95% CI 0.76-1.34), and gastroduodenal ulcer (RR 0.40; 95% CI 0.13-1.29) did not increase significantly in patients receiving PPIs compared with patients without those. There were significant differences in the risk of gastrointestinal events (RR 0.34; 95% CI 0.21-0.54) and significant bleeding from gastroduodenal lesions (RR 0.09; 95% CI 0.03-0.28) between the 2 groups. In patients with coronary artery diseases, PPIs plus antithrombotic strategy could reduce the risk of gastrointestinal events and significant bleeding from gastroduodenal lesions but may not affect the incidence of MACCE, all-cause death, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, and gastroduodenal ulcer (PROSPERO: CRD42021277899, date of registration October 10, 2021).

Abstract
This study aims to compare the risks of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack, and major bleeding across different antithrombotic regimens in Asian atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with stent insertions. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database and National Mortality Registry. A total of 10,208 nonvalvular AF patients who had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stents for the first time in 2007-2017 were identified. Most patients (68.4%) were prescribed dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) at discharge. During follow-up, the use of anticoagulants increased, and double therapy (an antiplatelet plus an anticoagulant) was the most frequently prescribed therapy. The risks of MACEs were comparable in double therapy and had a similar risk of MACEs compared to DAPT (aHR 0.86; 95% CI 0.67-1.11). Triple therapy (DAPT plus an anticoagulant) also had similar effectiveness to double therapy (1.23; 0.84-1.80) or DAPT (1.06; 0.77-1.45). However, triple therapy was associated with a nearly twofold higher major bleeding risk than DAPT and double therapy (1.97; 1.31-2.94 and 1.80; 1.10-2.95, respectively). DAPT was the most frequently prescribed antithrombotic regimen at discharge for Asian AF patients who had undergone stent insertions. DAPT and double and triple therapy had comparable effectiveness, but triple therapy had a significantly higher major bleeding risk than either DAPT or double therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The patterns of late major bleeding (MB) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain unknown in Chinese patients. OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the incidence, prediction, and long-term outcomes of late MB in Chinese patients. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study from 14 hospitals in Hong Kong. Participants were patients undergoing first-time PCI without MB within 30 days or death within 1 year. Patients were stratified by the presence of late MB, defined as MB between 30 and 365 days. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. The secondary endpoints were major adverse cardiac events (MACE). RESULTS A total of 32,057 patients were analyzed. After adjustment for baseline characteristics, periprocedural characteristics, and medications on discharge, the risks of all-cause mortality at 5 years were significantly higher with late MB (HR: 2.15; 95% CI: 1.92-2.41; P < 0.001). Late MB was also associated with a higher risk of MACE (HR: 1.57; 95% CI: 1.03-1.50; P < 0.001), myocardial infarction (HR: 1.25; 95% CI: 1.04-1.52; P = 0.02), and stroke (HR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.09-1.73; P = 0.006). The CARDIAC (anti-Coagulation therapy, Age, Renal insufficiency, Drop In hemoglobin, baseline Anemia in Chinese patients) score had a good discriminating power for prediction of MB within 365 days (area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve: 0.76). CONCLUSIONS Late MB was independently associated with a higher risk of mortality, MACE, myocardial infarction, and stroke in patients undergoing PCI. The CARDIAC score is a simple model that can predict MB after PCI. Prevention of MB represents an important strategy to optimize cardiovascular outcomes for patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The risk of bleeding is high in East Asians, whether East Asian patients with acute coronary syndrome choose ticagrelor or clopidogrel is still controversial. In this study, PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library database, and other sources were systematically searched. The primary efficacy outcome was all-cause death, the primary safety outcomes were any bleeding, PLATO major bleeding, and fatal bleeding. The secondary outcomes included vascular-cause death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, stroke, and dyspnea. A total of 8 randomized controlled trials with 3597 patients met inclusion criteria. Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor had significantly higher incidence of any bleeding [risk ratio (RR), 1.63; 1.33-1.99; P < 0.00001], PLATO major bleeding (RR 1.56; 1.15-2.12; P = 0.004), and dyspnea (RR 2.60; 1.68-4.00; P < 0.00001). However, ticagrelor was associated with a significantly reduced risk of stent thrombosis (RR 0.42; 0.19-0.92; P = 0.03). There was no significant difference in the risk of all-cause death (RR 0.87; 0.64-1.24; P = 0.44), fatal bleeding (RR 2.49; 0.79-7.86; P = 0.12), vascular-cause death (RR 0.88; 1.60-0.30; P = 0.52), myocardial infarction (RR 0.89; 0.65-1.23; P = 0.49), and stroke (RR 0.84; 0.47-1.50; P = 0.56) between the 2 groups. The present findings demonstrated that ticagrelor was associated with a higher risk of any bleeding, PLATO major bleeding, and dyspnea compared with clopidogrel in East Asian patients with acute coronary syndrome. However, it significantly reduced the risk of stent thrombosis. (Registered by PROSPERO, CRD42021255215).

Abstract
PURPOSE Platelet function test (PFT) results and genotype hold unique prognostic implications in East Asian patients. The aim of the PTRG-DES (Platelet function and genoType-Related long-term proGnosis in Drug-Eluting Stent-treated Patients with coronary artery disease) consortium is to assess the clinical impact thereof on long-term clinical outcomes in Korean patients with coronary artery disease during dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) including clopidogrel. MATERIALS AND METHODS Searching publications on the PubMed, we reviewed clopidogrel treatment studies with PFT and/or genotype data for potential inclusion in this study. Lead investigators were invited to share PFT/genotype results, patient characteristics, and clinical outcomes to evaluate relationships among them. RESULTS Nine registries from 32 academic centers participated in the PTRG-DES consortium, contributing individual patient data from 13160 patients who underwent DES implantation between July 2003 and August 2018. The PTRG-PFT cohort was composed of 11714 patients with available VerifyNow assay results. Platelet reactivity levels reached 218±79 P2Y12 reaction units (PRU), and high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity based on a consensus-recommended cutoff (PRU >208) was observed in 55.9%. The PTRG-Genotype cohort consisted of 8163 patients with candidate genotypes related with clopidogrel responsiveness. Of those with cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genotype, frequencies of carrying one and two loss-of-function allele (s) (*2 or *3) were 47.9% (intermediate metabolizers) and 14.2% (poor metabolizers), respectively. CONCLUSION The PTRG-DES consortium highlights unique values for on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity and CYP2C19 phenotype that may be important to developing optimal antiplatelet regimens in East Asian patients.

Ticagrelor vs. Clopidogrel in Older Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Insights From a Real-World Registry. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:859962. [PMID: 35369358 PMCID: PMC8964993 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.859962] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Objectives It is unclear whether more potent P2Y12 inhibitors are of benefit to older patients who are at high risk for both ischemia and bleeding. We conducted an observational study to compare the clinical outcomes of clopidogrel and ticagrelor uses in older patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods Older patients (aged ≥65 years) with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were divided into clopidogrel-treated and ticagrelor-treated groups. The primary observational endpoint was the occurrence of net adverse clinical and cerebral events (NACCEs) during a 12-month period, which is defined as the composite endpoint of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, stent thrombosis, urgent coronary revascularization, and clinically significant bleeding. The secondary endpoints were clinically significant bleeding and major adverse clinical and cerebral events (MACCEs). Results This study included a total of 2,611 patients. Of them, 1,636 received clopidogrel and 975 received ticagrelor. Between patients receiving clopidogrel and those receiving ticagrelor, no significant differences were noted in NACCE (8.4 vs. 9.7%, respectively; adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.86; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66-1.12) or MACCE (7.1 vs. 7.0%, respectively; adjusted HR, 1.13; 95% CI, 0.83-1.55) during the 12-month follow-up period. In contrast, the occurrence of clinically significant bleeding was significantly less in clopidogrel-treated patients compared with that in ticagrelor-treated patients (27, 1.7%, vs. 31, 3.2%, respectively; adjusted HR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.25-0.69). Stratified analyses revealed no significant association between age (≥75 years vs. <75 years) and treatment condition in terms of primary or secondary endpoints. Conclusion This study showed that clopidogrel and ticagrelor had comparable net clinical benefits in patients with ACS aged ≥65 years. Additionally, clopidogrel was associated with a significantly lower risk of major bleeding than ticagrelor without an increase in ischemic risk. These findings suggest that clopidogrel is an effective alternative to the more potent P2Y12 inhibitor ticagrelor in older patients.

Stroke Vasc Neurol 2022; 7:310-318. [PMID: 35264399 PMCID: PMC9453842 DOI: 10.1136/svn-2021-001294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 02/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Stroke after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) can be devastating. It is uncertain whether the risks of ischaemic stroke or intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) are associated with different choices of P2Y12 inhibitors (potent P2Y12 inhibitors such as ticagrelor and prasugrel vs clopidogrel). Even though East Asians are known to have different thrombotic and haemorrhagic profiles from Caucasians, data on Chinese patients are sparse. Method This was a retrospective cohort study conducting in Chinese patients with ACS who underwent first-ever percutaneous coronary intervention from 14 hospitals in Hong Kong between 2010 and 2017. The primary efficacy endpoint was ischaemic stroke. The secondary efficacy endpoint was a composite outcome of thrombotic events including all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke. The primary safety endpoint was ICH. The secondary safety endpoint was a composite of major bleeding events. Results After adjustment of baseline characteristics by 1:1 propensity score matching, a total of 6220 patients (3110 on each group) were analysed. Compared with clopidogrel, potent P2Y12 inhibitors were associated with a lower risk of ischaemic stroke (HR 0.57; 95% CI 0.37 to 0.87; p=0.008) and a lower risk of thrombotic events (HR 0.77; 95% CI 0.66 to 0.90; p=0.001). Potent P2Y12 inhibitor was associated with similar risk of ICH (HR 0.65; 95% CI 0.34 to 1.25, p=0.20) and major bleeding (HR 0.83; 95% CI 0.68 to 1.01, p=0.069). Conclusions Potent P2Y12 inhibitors were associated with a lower adjusted risk of ischaemic stroke and thrombotic events, compared with clopidogrel. The risks of ICH and major bleeding were similar.

Abstract
Because guidelines and recommendations in response to multiple randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of new therapies undergo rapid changes, antithrombotic therapies for patients after acute coronary syndrome, or percutaneous coronary intervention, are becoming more complex in daily clinical practice. The proportion of Asian populations enrolled in landmark RCTs is substantially low, which limits the direct application of trial findings into clinical practice in Asian countries. Moreover, compared with Caucasian patients, East Asian patients are considered to have a different ischemia/bleeding propensity in response to antithrombotic therapy, known as the "East Asian paradox" (ie, more bleeding events but fewer thromboembolic events). Coincident with consecutive RCTs in Western populations to optimize antithrombotic strategies, several such studies have now been conducted in East Asian cohorts. Herein, we provide a comprehensive summary of the key RCTs in this regard and propose future directions and perspectives for optimal antithrombotic therapies in East Asian patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND It remains inconclusive whether ticagrelor is superior to clopidogrel in ACS patients undergoing complex PCI in real-world practice. METHODS Based on an all-comers PCI registry, we compared the long-term effectiveness and safety between ticagrelor and clopidogrel in ACS patients undergoing complex PCI, defined as PCI procedures for complex lesions including bifurcation, chronic total occlusion, ostial, tortuous, calcific, diffused, thrombus-containing, and restenotic lesions. The primary ischemic outcome was a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. The safety outcome comprised Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) types 2, 3, and 5 bleeding. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to reduce bias. RESULTS Among ACS patients who underwent complex PCI, 4373 (35.2%) and 8065 (64.8%) received dual antiplatelet therapy based on ticagrelor and clopidogrel, respectively. The incidences of composite ischemic events (before PSM: 1.74% vs. 2.84%; after PSM: 1.50% vs. 2.65%; p < 0.01 for both) and all-cause death (before PSM: 1.23% vs. 2.12%, p < 0.01; after PSM: 1.09% vs. 1.81%, p = 0.02) were significantly lower in the ticagrelor-treated than in the clopidogrel-treated group. There was no significant difference in BARC types 2, 3, and 5 bleeding between groups. CONCLUSIONS Whilst the risk of major bleeding was comparable between the two drugs, ticagrelor was associated with a significantly lower risk of ischemic events than clopidogrel in ACS patients undergoing complex PCI.

Abstract
Background The choice of antithrombotic therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is heavily dependent on the relative trade-off between major bleeding (MB) and myocardial infarction (MI). However, the mortality trade-off was mostly described in Western populations and remained unknown in East Asians. Method This was a retrospective cohort study from 14 hospitals under the Hospital Authority of Hong Kong between 2004 and 2017. Participants were patients undergoing first-time PCI and survived for the first year. Patients were stratified by the presence of MB and MI during the first year. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality between 1 and 5 years after PCI. The secondary endpoint was cardiovascular mortality. Results A total of 32 180 patients were analysed. After adjustment for baseline characteristics and using patients with neither events as reference, the risks of all-cause mortality were increased in patients with MI only (HR, 1.63; 95% CI 1.45 to 1.84; p<0.001), further increased in those with MB only (HR, 2.11, 95% CI 1.86 to 2.39; p<0.001) and highest in those with both (HR, 2.92; 95% CI 2.39 to 3.56; p<0.001). In both Cox regression and propensity score analyses, MB had a stronger impact on all-cause mortality than MI, but similar impact on cardiovascular mortality. Conclusions Both MB and MI within the first year after PCI were associated with increase in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in Chinese patients, but the impact was stronger with MB.

Ticagrelor vs. Clopidogrel After Complex Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:768190. [PMID: 34881313 PMCID: PMC8645933 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.768190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 10/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have an increased risk of cardiovascular events. Whether potent antiplatelet therapy after complex PCI improves outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) remains unclear. Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor vs. clopidogrel in patients with SCAD undergoing complex PCI. Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of SCAD and undergoing PCI during January 2016 to December 2018 were selected from an institutional registry. The primary efficacy endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 12 months after PCI. The primary safety endpoint was major bleeding. Results: Among 15,459 patients with SCAD included in this analysis, complex PCI was performed in 6,335 (41.0%) patients. Of patients undergoing complex PCI, 1,123 patients (17.7%) were treated with ticagrelor. The primary efficacy outcome after complex PCI occurred in 8.6% of patients in the ticagrelor group and 11.2% in the clopidogrel group. Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor decreased the risk of MACE in patients undergoing complex PCI [adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 0.764; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.615 to 0.949; p = 0.015], but not in non-complex PCI (p for interaction = 0.001). There was no significant difference in incidence of major bleeding between patients treated with ticagrelor and clopidogrel (p = 0.221), while ticagrelor was associated with an increased risk of minor bleeding (adjusted HR: 3.099; 95% CI: 2.049 to 4.687; p < 0.001). Conclusion: In patients with SCAD and undergoing complex PCI, ticagrelor could substantially reduce the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes without increasing the risk of major bleeding compared with clopidogrel.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for patients implanted with new-generation drug-eluting stents in East Asians is currently still controversial. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the efficacy and safety of short-term DAPT in patients with those. In this study, randomized controlled trials from PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched to compare the efficacy and safety of short-term DAPT (6 months or less) with long-term DAPT (12 months or more) in patients implanted with new-generation drug-eluting stents in East Asian from inception to September 2020. The primary efficacy outcome was all-cause death, the primary safety outcome was major bleeding, and the secondary outcomes included cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite or possible stent thrombosis, and stroke. A total of 6 randomized controlled trials with 15,688 patients met inclusion criteria; there were no significant differences in the incidence of all-cause death [risk ratio (RR), 1.03; 0.76-1.39; P = 0.856)], cardiovascular death (RR, 0.83; 0.55-1.24; P = 0.361), myocardial infarction (RR, 0.97; 0.72-1.31; P = 0.853), definite or possible stent thrombosis (RR, 1.52; 0.83-2.78; P = 0.170), and stroke (RR, 0.90; 0.61-1.31; P = 0.574) between short-term and long-term DAPTs. However, there was a significant difference in the risk of major bleeding (RR, 0.64; 0.49-0.85; P = 0.002) between the 2 groups. Compared with long-term DAPT, the short-term DAPT can reduce the risk of major bleeding without increasing the risk of death or ischemia for East Asians (Registered by PROSPERO, CRD42020213266).

Abstract
Background: Oral anticoagulants (OAC) plus antiplatelets is recommended for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary artery disease (CAD) to reduce thromboembolism. However, there is limited evidence regarding antithrombotic therapy for patients with concomitant chronic kidney disease (CKD), AF, and CAD, especially those not undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. We aimed to use real-world data assessing the efficacy and safety of antithrombotic regimens in this population. Methods: We used a single-center database of 142,624 CKD patients to identify those receiving antithrombotic therapy for AF and CAD between 2010 and 2018. Patients taking warfarin or direct OAC (DOAC) alone were grouped in the OAC monotherapy (n = 537), whereas those taking OAC plus antiplatelets were grouped in the combination therapy (n = 2,391). We conducted propensity score matching to balance baseline covariates. The endpoints were all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events, and major bleedings. Results: After 1:4 matching, the number of patients in OAC monotherapy and combination therapy were 413 and 1,652, respectively. Between the two groups, combination therapy was associated with higher risks for ischemic stroke (HR 2.37, CI 1.72–3.27), acute myocardial infarction (HR 6.14, CI 2.51–15.0), and hemorrhagic stroke (HR 3.57, CI 1.35–9.81). The results were consistent across CKD stages. In monotherapy, DOAC users were associated with lower risks for all-cause mortality, AMI, and gastrointestinal bleeding than warfarin, but the stroke risk was similar between the two subgroups. Conclusions: For patients with concomitant CKD, AF and CAD not undergoing PCI, OAC monotherapy may reduce stroke and AMI risks. DOAC showed more favorable outcomes than warfarin.

Abstract
Clinical outcomes are unknown after ticagrelor treatment in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). ESRD patients who were on hemodialysis and received dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for AMI between July 2013 and December 2016 were identified in Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. Using stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting, patients receiving aspirin plus ticagrelor (n = 530) were compared with those receiving aspirin plus clopidogrel (n = 2462) for the primary efficacy endpoint, a composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke, and bleeding, defined according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium. Study outcomes were compared between the two groups using Cox proportional hazards model or competing risk model for the hazard ratio or subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR). During 9 months of follow-up, ticagrelor was comparable to clopidogrel with respect to the risks of primary efficacy endpoint [11.69 vs. 9.28/100 patient-months; SHR, 1.16; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.97–1.4] and bleeding (5.55 vs. 4.36/100 patient-months; SHR 1.14; 95% CI 0.88–1.47). In conclusion, among hemodialysis patients receiving DAPT for AMI, ticagrelor was comparable to clopidogrel with regard to the composite efficacy endpoint and bleeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The increased thrombotic risk in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and diabetes highlights the need for adequate antithrombotic protection. We aimed to compare the 6-month clinical outcomes between ticagrelor and clopidogrel in patients with ACS and diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS The study was a single-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint, and controlled registry trial. A total of 270 ACS patients with diabetes were randomly assigned in a 1 : 1 ratio to either the ticagrelor group or the clopidogrel group. Follow-up was performed for 6 months, and the data on efficacy outcomes and bleeding events were collected. At 6 months, complete follow-up data were available for 266 (98.5%) of 270 patients, and 4 were lost to follow-up. There was no significant difference in the survival rate of the effective endpoints between the ticagrelor group (n = 133) and the clopidogrel group (n = 133) (HR 0.83, 95% CI 0.44-1.56, p = 0.561), but the incidence of bleeding events in the ticagrelor group was higher than that in the clopidogrel group (HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.00-3.10, p = 0.049). CONCLUSION Ticagrelor did not improve the composite of nonfatal MI, target vessel revascularization, rehospitalization, stroke, and death from any cause; however, it significantly increased the incidence of bleeding events defined by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria in Chinese patients with ACS and diabetes during the 6-month follow-up compared with clopidogrel.

Efficacy and Safety of Very Short-Term Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Drug-Eluting Stents Implantation for Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:660360. [PMID: 34557526 PMCID: PMC8452852 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.660360] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and Objective: Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is the basis for preventing ischemic events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and DAPT for 12 months has been the standard strategy recommended by the guidelines. However, patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have a higher risk of thrombosis, and the application of very short-term DAPT (1–3 months) in patients with ACS is consistently controversial. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of DAPT for 1–3 months in patients with ACS who were implanted with drug-eluting stents (DES). Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials that compared the very short-term (3 months or less) with long-term (12 months or more) DAPT in patients with ACS after PCI. The randomized controlled trials were included by searching PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library database. The relative risk (RR) and 95% CIs for endpoint events were calculated by the fixed effects model, and trial sequential analysis was applied to calculate the anticipated sample size and assess the results. Result: A total of eight randomized controlled trials with 16,492 patients who met the inclusion criteria were conducted. There were no significant statistic differences in myocardial infarction (RR 1.05, 0.82–1.35, P = 0.68), stents thrombosis (RR 1.32, 0.85–2.07, P = 0.22), all-cause death (RR 0.87, 0.66–1.13, P = 0.29), and target vessel revascularization (RR 0.93, 0.76–1.13, P = 0.47). However, there were significant differences in major bleeding (RR 0.60, 0.50–0.73, P < 0.00001) and the net adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (RR 0.84, 0.74–0.95, P = 0.007). Conclusions: The strategy of DAPT for 1–3 months not only has a significant effect in patients with ACS who were implanted with DES but also reduces the risk of major bleeding. The scheme of short-term DAPT followed by P2Y12 receptor inhibitor monotherapy is especially beneficial for patients with ACS. The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis are based on the application of new generation DES and new oral antiplatelet drugs in patients with ACS, which are difficult to use in the general population (Registered by PROSPERO, CRD 42020210520).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This article compares the clinical outcomes of clopidogrel and ticagrelor in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) alleles and investigates whether clopidogrel could be an alternative P2Y12 inhibitor without increasing the risk of ischemic events. METHODS Patients were divided into the clopidogrel-treated group and the ticagrelor-treated group. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) calculated by propensity scores was used to adjust confounding covariates. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) within 12 months. The secondary outcomes were MACCEs plus unstable angina, and clinically significant bleeding events. RESULTS Finally, 2,199 patients were included. Of them, 1,606 were treated with clopidogrel, and 593 were treated with ticagrelor. The mean age of the original cohort was 59.92 ± 9.81 years. During the 12-month follow-up period, MACCEs occurred in 89 patients (4.0%). No significant differences were observed in MACCEs (IPTW-adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.87; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.65-1.18), MACCEs plus unstable angina (IPTW-adjusted HR, 1.20; 95% CI, 0.91-1.59), or clinically significant bleeding events (IPTW-adjusted HR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.53-1.23) between the clopidogrel- and ticagrelor-treated groups. CONCLUSION In patients with ACS without CYP2C19 LOF alleles, clopidogrel was not associated with a higher risk of MACCEs when compared with ticagrelor. The main findings of this study support use of clopidogrel in CYP2C19 LOF noncarriers as an alternative P2Y12 inhibitor, which may reduce medical expenses and adverse reactions caused by more potent P2Y12 inhibitors in these patients.

ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2021; 9:1066. [PMID: 34422978 PMCID: PMC8339845 DOI: 10.21037/atm-20-7724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2020] [Accepted: 03/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Background The prognostic value of the CYP2C19 genotype in post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients remains controversial. The recently-published, limited-sample PHARMCLO trial indicates a personalized pharmacogenomic approach may reduce adverse events. This study aimed to determine the prognostic value of CYP2C19 genotypes. Methods The original cohort consisted of 10,724 PCI patients in 2013. 756 patients with genotyped CYP2C19 were included in our analysis. The CYP2C19 genotype prognostic value was tested based on different clinical factors. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardio- and cerebro-vascular event (MACCE). Results MACCE 2-years post-PCI occurred in 19 patients (17.4%) in poor metabolizers (PM, CYP2C19 *2/*2, *2/*3, *3/*3), 43 patients (12.2%) in intermediate metabolizers (IM, CYP2C19 *1/*2 or *1/*3) and 27 patients (9.2%) in extensive metabolizers (EM, CYP2C19 *1/*1). PM was an independent MACCE predictor compared with EM (HR: 1.960, 95% CI: 1.139–3.372), but the difference between IM and PM was not significant (HR: 1.314, 95% CI: 0.843–2.048). Major bleeding (BARC grade ≥3) was not significantly different between the three groups (2.5% vs. 2.1% vs. 0.8%, P=0.133). Subgroup analysis showed that the CYP2C19 genotype prognostic value was present in the following subgroups: male, age >60 years, body mass index (BMI) >24 kg/m2, SYNTAX score >15, current smokers, and patients without chronic kidney disease. Conclusions Utilizing CYP2C19 genotype to guide post-PCI antiplatelet therapy might be appropriate in patients with the following characteristics: male, age >60 years, BMI >24 kg/m2, SYNTAX score >15, current smokers, and non-chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), it is unclear which combination of antithrombotic drugs is preferable and which is the optimal duration of treatment. AREAS COVERED The authors review the available evidence in this area resulting from single studies and meta-analyses. In the absence of direct head-to-head comparisons between different non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOAC), the authors review the available studies with NOACS in these patients and derived indirect comparisons. EXPERT OPINION In patients with AF who undergo PCI, a dual antithrombotic strategy which includes a NOAC plus single antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor (preferably clopidogrel) should be considered as the preferred treatment option in most cases. Oral anticoagulation associated with dual antiplatelet therapy (triple antithrombotic therapy) should be offered for no longer than 30 days to patients with very high thrombotic and low hemorrhagic risk. It is unclear whether the dual antithrombotic strategy should be continued beyond 12 months in patients at high risk of thrombotic events. Additional data from adequately powered controlled studies are needed to support the long-term efficacy of this strategy and to establish the best patient-tailored approach in this complex scenario.

Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that low-dose new generation of P2Y12 receptor antagonists may be more suitable compared with clopidogrel at a standard dose for the dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for East Asian patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, there remains no consensus in clinical practice. Thus, in this study, we aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of low-dose P2Y12 receptor antagonists, compared to clopidogrel at a standard dose, in DAPT in East Asian patients after PCI. We systematically searched literatures for randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing low-dose P2Y12 receptor antagonists with standard-dose clopidogrel for the treatment of East Asian patients undergoing PCI. The endpoints of efficacy include major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), all-cause mortality, and the number of target vessel revascularization. The indicators of safety include major and minor bleeding events. Heterogeneity was evaluated by I2 statistic test. Begg's and Egger's tests were used to evaluate publication bias. In total, 2,747 subjects from 8 RCT studies were included. Low-dose new P2Y12 receptor antagonists, that is, ticagrelor or prasugrel, showed significantly lower incidence of MACEs, as compared with standard-dose clopidogrel, in the East Asian patients who are in DAPT after undergoing PCI. Further, no difference was noted for the risk of major and minor bleeding events. In East Asian patients undergoing PCI and receiving DAPT, the use of low-dose P2Y12 receptor antagonists, ticagrelor or prasugrel, has been determined to be superior than clopidogrel at standard dose; this has been evidenced by a lower incidence of MACEs without increasing the risk of bleeding.

Abstract
Previous studies have confirmed that a dynamic change in circadian rhythm will affect platelet activity, resulting in clopidogrel resistance (CR). We attempted to evaluate whether polymorphisms of related circadian rhythm genes are involved in CR in stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) patients. A sum of 204 SCAD patients met our requirements and were recruited, and 96 patients were considered to have CR. After clinical data collection and platelet function evaluation, genomic DNA was isolated from human peripheral blood, and 23 tagSNPs from related circadian rhythm genes were genotyped by GenomeLab SNPstream Genotyping System. After RNA isolation, relative expression of related gene mRNAs (CLOCK, CRY1, CACNA1C and PRKCG) was measured by real-time PCR. The results showed that polymorphisms in CRY1, CACNA1C and PRKCG changed the response to clopidogrel. And then, the rs1801260 polymorphism might lead to higher mRNA expression in CLOCK and potentially induce the occurrence of CR. Additionally, the TC genotype of rs3745406 might lower mRNA expression of PRKCG, resulting in CR. These findings support the hypothesized role of circadian rhythm genes in CR and indicate probable biomarkers for CR susceptibility, providing new insight into individualized medicine for coronary heart disease.

Female sex as an independent predictor of high bleeding risk among East Asian percutaneous coronary intervention patients: A sex difference analysis. J Cardiol 2021; 78:431-438. [PMID: 34172350 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2021.05.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2021] [Revised: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 05/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sex differences in the outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have been identified in Western countries. However, data on the long-term outcomes for bleeding events, particularly in East Asia where the aging population is growing rapidly and consists predominantly of women, remain scarce. METHODS We analyzed 2,494 ACS survivors from a multicenter PCI registry who underwent PCI between 2009 and 2012. The primary outcome was readmission for major bleeding at 2 years. Survival curves were generated with the cumulative incidence function. The adjusted hazard ratios were evaluated for the primary outcomes by sex using (1) Fine-Gray models and (2) Cox regression models. RESULTS There were 548 women (22.0%) in this cohort. The women were older (73.7 ± 10.8 years vs. 65.4 ± 11.8 years, p < 0.001), had a lower body mass index (23.0 ± 3.9 vs. 24.3 ± 3.6, p < 0.001), and had more comorbidities such as renal failure (49.4% vs. 36.3%, p < 0.001) and previous heart failure (8.4% vs. 4.5%, p < 0.001). Fewer women were discharged with statins (81.9% vs. 86.5%, p = 0.025) or beta blockers (70.6% vs. 77.1%, p = 0.007). During the 2-year follow-up, the unadjusted readmission rates for bleeding were higher among women (4.9% versus 2.4% at 2 years after discharge). Multivariable competing risk analysis with the Fine-Gray model and Cox regression model further demonstrated that female sex was associated with a higher risk of bleeding. CONCLUSIONS Among patients treated with PCI, women had a higher incidence of bleeding events requiring readmission. Sex disparities in the etiologies of readmission following PCI suggest the need for targeted treatment strategies. A strict follow-up after discharge could be beneficial for women to further reduce their risk.
