Lizano-Díez I, Paz Ruiz S. Analysis of the Financial Impact of Using Cangrelor on the Safety and Efficacy Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Whom Oral Therapy with P2Y 12 Inhibitors is Not Feasible or Desirable, in Spain. CLINICOECONOMICS AND OUTCOMES RESEARCH 2021; 13:77-87. [PMID: 33536769 PMCID: PMC7850430 DOI: 10.2147/ceor.s290377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2020] [Accepted: 01/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Cangrelor is an intravenous, direct-acting, reversible P2Y12 inhibitor indicated for the reduction of thrombotic cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in whom oral P2Y12 inhibitors are not feasible or desirable. The objective was to assess the financial impact of introducing cangrelor into the hospital formulary in Spain. PATIENTS AND METHODS A budget impact model was developed to calculate the cost difference between two scenarios (without and with cangrelor) to treat CAD patients undergoing PCI in whom oral P2Y12 inhibitors are not feasible or desirable, over 3 years. Intravenous P2Y12 inhibitor (cangrelor), oral P2Y12 inhibitors (clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor), and glycoprotein IIb-IIIa inhibitors (GPIs) for bail-out use were considered. Epidemiological, efficacy (thrombotic events including cardiac death), safety (bleeding events), and costs (€, 2019) data were based on Spanish registries, clinical trials, and meta-analyses. One-way sensitivity analysis established the effect of uncertainty on results. RESULTS For years 1, 2, and 3, the target population to receive cangrelor was 607, 1,822, and 3,340 patients, and cangrelor uptake was 23.70%, 58.30%, and 51.30%, respectively. The 3-year budget impact was 1,021,717€ varying from 50,245€ in year 1 to 599,272€ in year 3. The results were sensitive to the number of patients treated with GPIs in Spanish hospitals. CONCLUSION Based on our results, the financial effort needed to introduce the use of cangrelor in patients undergoing PCI in whom antiplatelet therapy with oral P2Y12 inhibitors is not feasible or desirable barely exceeds one million € over three years, in Spain.

Effect of postprocedural full-dose infusion of bivalirudin on acute stent thrombosis in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: Outcomes in a large real-world population. Cardiovasc Ther 2017; 35. [PMID: 28083915 DOI: 10.1111/1755-5922.12251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2016] [Revised: 01/07/2017] [Accepted: 01/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to evaluate the effect of prolonged full-dose bivalirudin infusion in real-world population with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). BACKGROUND Subgroup data as well as meta-analysis from randomized clinical trials have shown the potency of postprocedural full-dose infusion (1.75 mg/kg/h) of bivalirudin on attenuating acute stent thrombosis (ST) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS In this multicenter retrospective observational study, 2047 consecutive STEMI patients treated with bivalirudin during primary PCI were enrolled in 65 Chinese centers between July 2013 and May 2016. The primary outcome was acute ST defined as ARC definite/probable within 24 hours after the index procedure, and the secondary endpoints included total ST, major adverse cardiac or cerebral events (MACCE, defined as death, reinfarction, stroke, and target vessel revascularization), and any bleeding at 30 days. RESULTS Among 2047 STEMI patients, 1123 (54.9%) were treated with postprocedural bivalirudin full-dose infusion (median 120 minutes) while the other 924 (45.1%) received low-dose (0.25 mg/kg/h) or null postprocedural infusion. A total of three acute ST (0.3%) occurred in STEMI patients with none or low-dose prolonged infusion of bivalirudin, but none was observed in those treated with post-PCI full-dose infusion (0.3% vs 0.0%, P=.092). Outcomes on MACCE (2.1% vs 2.7%, P=.402) and total bleeding (2.1% vs 1.4%, P=.217) at 30 days showed no significant difference between the two groups, and no subacute ST was observed. CONCLUSION Post-PCI full-dose bivalirudin infusion is safe and has a trend to protect against acute ST in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI in real-world settings.

Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have more ischemic events and a decreased survival rate after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) than non-DM patients. However, it is unknown whether short-term or long-term bleeding events are associated with DM. We aimed to determine the impact of DM on mortality and bleeding events in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients after urgent PCI.This retrospective cohort study included 435 STEMI patients who had undergone urgent PCI between 2010 and 2013, comprising 97 DM patients and 338 non-DM patients. The primary outcomes were the 30-day bleeding and 30-day mortality rates. The median follow-up period was 2 years. Data regarding patient demographics, peri-PCI medication, and invasive procedures were compared between DM and non-DM patients. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to estimate the association between DM and bleeding events. Kaplan-Meier curves were calculated to elucidate the survival rate.Compared with non-DM patients, DM patients with STEMI had a higher incidence of left ventricular ejection fraction <40% (17.6% vs 4.2%, P < 0.05), Killip class >II (11.3% vs 3.8%, P < 0.05), and smoking (44.3% vs 63.0%, P < 0.05). Similar peri-PCI medication and invasive procedures were administered in the 2 groups. The incidence of 30-day bleeding events was significantly higher for DM patients than non-DM patients (6.2% vs 0.9%, P < 0.05). A multivariate analysis showed that DM was strongly associated with 30-day bleeding events after adjusting for confounders. DM patients had significant increased mortality rates at both the 30-day and 2-year end points.DM was an independent predictor for an increased risk of 30-day bleeding events and correlated with increased 30-day and 2-year mortality rates in STEMI patients with PCI. Our study has significant clinical implications for risk stratification before the application of urgent PCI.

Abstract
A parenteral anticoagulant is indicated in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Which anticoagulant should be preferred in each setting is not clearly established. Bivalirudin administration was considered in acute coronary syndromes after several clinical trials showed decreased bleeding risk with its use compared with the association of unfractionated heparin (UFH) with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (GPIs). Most recent data demonstrate that the bleeding benefit identified in the previous studies was not due to bivalirudin's properties but to higher bleeding incidence in the comparator arm due to the disproportional use of GPIs with heparin. This paper reviews clinical evidence on bivalirudin as anticoagulant in stable angina and acute coronary syndromes.

Abstract
Although bivalirudin has been shown to reduce bleeding events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, residual concerns remain about a possible higher risk of early (within 30 days) stent thrombosis (ST). Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of randomised trials reporting ST events with bivalirudin compared to other antithrombotic therapies (heparins ± glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors). A systematic literature search of electronic resources was performed through May, 2014. The primary endpoint was definite early ST, according to Academic Research Consortium criteria. Secondary endpoints included: all-cause death, myocardial infarction and major bleeding. A total of 11 trials, including 16,415 patients, were accrued. Compared to other regimens, bivalirudin significantly increased the risk of early ST (odds ratio [OR]=1.80; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.28-2.52; p=0.0007) and reduced the risk of major bleeding (OR [95 %CI]=0.64 [0.51-0.82], p=0.0003), with a comparable risk of mortality or myocardial infarction. The higher risk of early ST was mainly attributable to acute (OR [95 % CI] =4.33 [2.33-8.05], p < 0.001) than subacute (OR [95 % CI] =0.89 [0.53-1.50], p =0.67) ST events (p for interaction < 0.001). Non-fatal myocardial infarction was the most common presentation (83 %) of early ST events, while death occurred infrequently (about 5 %). In conclusion, in patients undergoing PCI, bivalirudin compared to heparins is associated with a higher risk of early ST, which is mainly related to more frequent acute events. Further studies are required to evaluate alternative strategies to mitigate this risk, without hampering the benefits derived from the reduction in bleeding events with bivalirudin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of bivalirudin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction has been tested in clinical trials, but its use in a real-world scenario has never been reported. METHODS From the total number of patients enrolled in the EUROVISION registry, 678 subjects affected by ST-elevation myocardial infarction were selected and included in the analysis. Posology and usage patterns of bivalirudin, as evaluated by dose and time of drug bolus and infusion administered, were evaluated. The 30-day outcome has been assessed by efficacy and safety endpoints. RESULTS All patients received an initial intravenous bolus of bivalirudin (0.70±0.25 mg/kg) followed by an infusion (1.58±0.47 mg/kg/h; duration: 60 [30, 107] min) in 99.3% of cases. An additional bolus (0.49±0.06 mg/kg) was administered in 9.3% of patients. Bivalirudin infusion was prolonged after procedure in 62.2%. Death occurred in 2.1% of patients, non-fatal myocardial reinfarction in 0.3%, unplanned revascularization in 0.6% and non-fatal stroke in 0.4%. Acute stent thrombosis was not observed. Major bleeding occurred in 1.5% of patients. CONCLUSIONS Bivalirudin usage in the setting of primary PCI provided excellent results in terms of 30-day outcome even in a real-world population.
