[PMID: 37485257 PMCID: PMC10357506 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1197161] [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: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction In patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), whether short-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by P2Y12 inhibitors confers benefits compared with standard DAPT remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of 1-3 months of DAPT followed by P2Y12 monotherapy in patients with CAD and CKD undergoing PCI. Methods PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after a 1-3 months DAPT vs. DAPT in patients with CAD and CKD after PCI. The primary outcome was the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as a composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, target-vessel revascularization, and stroke. The safety outcome was the major bleeding events, defined as a composite of TIMI major bleeding or Bleeding Academic Research and Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. The pooled risk ratios (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a fixed- or random-effects model depending on the heterogeneity among studies. Results Four RCTs including 20,468 patients (2,833 patients with CKD and 17,635 without CKD) comparing P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy with DAPT were included in our meta-analysis. Patients with CAD and CKD had higher risk of ischemic and bleeding events. P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after 1-3 months of DAPT significantly reduced the risk of major bleeding compared to DAPT in CKD patients (RR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.51-0.95, P = 0.02) and non-CKD patients (RR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.49-0.89, P = 0.01). No significant difference regarding MACEs between P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy and DAPT was found in CKD patients (RR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.59-1.31, P = 0.53) and non-CKD (RR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.79-1.04, P = 0.17). Conclusion P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after 1-3 months of DAPT was an effective strategy for lowering major bleeding complications without increasing the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with CAD and CKD undergoing PCI as compared with DAPT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), the ischemic benefit of antithrombotic treatment is counterbalanced by the risk of bleeding. The recognition that bleeding events have prognostic implications (i.e. mortality) similar to recurrent ischemic events led to the development of treatment regimens aimed at balancing both ischemic and bleeding risks. AREAS COVERED This review aims at describing definitions, incidence, and prognosis related to bleeding events in ACS patients as well as bleeding-avoidance strategies for their prevention and management of bleeding complications. EXPERT OPINION Management of ACS patients has witnessed remarkable progress after the shift in focusing on the trade-off between ischemia and bleeding. Efforts in standardizing bleeding definitions will allow for better defining the prognostic impact of different types of bleeding events and enable to identify the high-bleeding risk patient. Such efforts will allow to balance the trade-off between the thrombotic and bleeding risk of the individual patient translating into better downward diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making. Novel strategies aiming at maximizing the safety and efficacy of antithrombotic regimens as well as the development of novel antithrombotic drugs and reversal agents and technological advances will allow for optimization of bleeding-avoidance strategies and management of bleeding complications.

Benefit and risk of prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stent implantation in patients with chronic kidney disease: A nationwide cohort study. Atherosclerosis 2022; 352:69-75. [PMID: 35714431 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2022.05.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not clearly established. This study purposed to compare clinical outcomes of patients with 6-12 (standard) versus 12-24 months (prolonged) DAPT according to CKD. METHODS Using a nationwide, claim-based database, we retrospectively evaluated association between DAPT duration and clinical outcomes including death, composite ischemic event, and composite bleeding event between 1 and 3 years after PCI. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Of 73,941 eligible patients, 13,425 (18.2%) had CKD and 49,019 (66%) were prescribed prolonged DAPT. Prolonged DAPT had no significant impact on the risk of clinical outcomes in patients with normal renal function. RESULTS In patients with CKD, prolonged DAPT was associated with a lower risk of all-cause death (HR 0.85, 95% CI 0.76-0.95) and composite ischemic events (HR 0.87, 95% CI 0.78-0.96) and a higher risk of composite bleeding events (HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.37). Benefit of prolonged DAPT on reducing composite ischemic event increased significantly in patients with worsened renal dysfunction (pinteraction = 0.02) while there was no significant interaction between its bleeding risk and renal dysfunction (pinteraction = 0.22). CONCLUSIONS While standard DAPT would be recommended in patients with normal renal function, tailored decision for DAPT duration would be considered in those with CKD to balance between ischemic and bleeding risks.

Use and outcomes of dual antiplatelet therapy for acute coronary syndrome in patients with chronic kidney disease: insights from the Canadian Observational Antiplatelet Study (COAPT). Heart Vessels 2022; 37:1291-1298. [PMID: 35089380 DOI: 10.1007/s00380-022-02029-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) increases the risk of adverse outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The optimal regimen of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in CKD poses a challenge due to the increased bleeding and clotting tendencies, particularly since patients with CKD were underrepresented in randomized controlled trials. We examined the practice patterns of DAPT prescription stratified by the presence of CKD. The multicentre prospective Canadian Observational Antiplatelet Study (COAPT) enrolled patients with ACS between December 2011 and May 2013. The present study is a subgroup analysis comparing type and duration of DAPT and associated outcomes among patients with and without CKD (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, calculated by CKD-EPI). Patients with CKD (275/1921, 14.3%) were prescribed prasugrel/ticagrelor less (18.5% vs 25.8%, p = 0.01) and had a shorter duration of DAPT therapy versus patients without CKD (median 382 vs 402 days, p = 0.003). CKD was associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at 12 months (p < 0.001) but not bleeding when compared to patients without CKD. CKD was associated with MACE in both patients on prasugrel/ticagrelor (p = 0.017) and those on clopidogrel (p < 0.001) (p for heterogeneity = 0.70). CKD was associated with increased bleeding only among patients receiving prasugrel/ticagrelor (p = 0.007), but not among those receiving clopidogrel (p = 0.64) (p for heterogeneity = 0.036). Patients with CKD had a shorter DAPT duration and were less frequently prescribed potent P2Y12 inhibitors than patients without CKD. Overall, compared with patients without CKD, patients with CKD had higher rates of MACE and similar bleeding rates. However, among those prescribed more potent P2Y12 inhibitors, CKD was associated with more bleeding than those without CKD. Further studies are needed to better define the benefit/risk evaluation, and establish a more tailored and evidence-based DAPT regimen for this high-risk patient group.

Abstract
The kidney and the brain, as high-flow end organs relying on autoregulatory mechanisms, have unique anatomic and physiological hemodynamic properties. Similarly, the two organs share a common pattern of microvascular dysfunction as a result of aging and exposure to vascular risk factors (e.g., hypertension, diabetes and smoking) and therefore progress in parallel into a systemic condition known as small vessel disease (SVD). Many epidemiological studies have shown that even mild renal dysfunction is robustly associated with acute and chronic forms of cerebrovascular disease. Beyond ischemic SVD, kidney impairment increases the risk of acute cerebrovascular events related to different underlying pathologies, notably large artery stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage. Other chronic cerebral manifestations of SVD are variably associated with kidney disease. Observational data have suggested the hypothesis that kidney function influences cerebrovascular disease independently and adjunctively to the effect of known vascular risk factors, which affect both renal and cerebral microvasculature. In addition to confirming this independent association, recent large-scale human genetic studies have contributed to disentangling potentially causal associations from shared genetic predisposition and resolving the uncertainty around the direction of causality between kidney and cerebrovascular disease. Accelerated atherosclerosis, impaired cerebral autoregulation, remodeling of the cerebral vasculature, chronic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction can be proposed to explain the additive mechanisms through which renal dysfunction leads to cerebral SVD and other cerebrovascular events. Genetic epidemiology also can help identify new pathological pathways which wire kidney dysfunction and cerebral vascular pathology together. The need for identifying additional pathological mechanisms underlying kidney and cerebrovascular disease is attested to by the limited effect of current therapeutic options in preventing cerebrovascular disease in patients with kidney impairment.

Abstract
Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is currently the standard treatment for the prevention of ischemic events after stent implantation. However, the optimal DAPT duration remains elusive for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, we aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety between long-term and short-term DAPT after coronary stenting in patients with CKD. Methods This retrospective cohort study analyze data from the Taipei Medical University (TMU) Institutional and Clinical Database, which include anonymized electronic health data of 3 million patients that visited TMU Hospital, Wan Fang Hospital, and Shuang Ho Hospital. We enrolled patients with CKD after coronary stenting between 2008 and 2019. The patients were divided into the long-term (>6 months) and short-term DAPT group (≤ 6 months). The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) from 6 months after the index date. The secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) bleeding. Results A total of 1899 patients were enrolled; of them, 1112 and 787 were assigned to the long-term and short-term DAPT groups, respectively. Long-term DAPT was associated with similar risk of MACE (HR: 1.05, 95% CI: 0.65–1.70, P = 0.83) compare with short-term DAPT. Different CKD risk did not modify the risk of MACE. There was also no significant difference in all-cause mortality (HR: 1.10, 95% CI: 0.75–1.61, P = 0.63) and TIMI bleeding (HR 1.19, 95% CI: 0.86–1.63, P = 0.30) between groups. Conclusions Among patients with CKD and coronary stenting, we found that long-term and short-term DAPT tied on the risk of MACE, all-cause mortality and TIMI bleeding.

Abstract
Concomitant chronic kidney disease (CKD) and coronary artery disease (CAD) is known to have poor outcomes. With a thorough literature review, we discuss the pathophysiological basis behind accelerated atherosclerosis in CKD, and the role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in these patients, focusing on drug-eluting stents, coronary artery bypass grafting, and adverse outcomes. We discuss factors contributing to poor outcomes in these patients, and the need for more work in this subgroup.

Abstract
Despite over 40 years since the first percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed, the optimal dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) regime poses a significant challenge for clinicians, especially in certain scenarios. DAPT is the standard of care in PCI following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or for elective patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). There remains significant uncertainty regarding DAPT in patients at high risk of bleeding, such as the elderly and patients requiring anticoagulation. More and more clinicians are faced with a dilemma of weighing risks and benefits from the increasing list of potent, new antiplatelet agents and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in a growing, aging population. Historically, most studies failed to recognize bleeding risk, instead focusing on ischemic risk. In recent years however, bleeding has been recognized as a very significant driver of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing PCI. There is a paucity of data in this cohort leading to divergent and sometimes conflicting recommendations, largely based on expert consensus of opinion. In the current review, we critically evaluate the available evidence in these uncertain scenarios.
