Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis. JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY FOR CARDIOVASCULAR ANGIOGRAPHY & INTERVENTIONS 2024; 3:101859. [PMID: 39131993 PMCID: PMC11307649 DOI: 10.1016/j.jscai.2024.101859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
Background Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) comprise more than a quarter of all patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and are at higher risk of adverse events. We sought to reexamine the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) postpercutaneous coronary intervention in patients with DM. Methods We systematically included randomized controlled trials comparing any 2 of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months of DAPT that reported major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), net adverse clinical events (NACE), bleeding, or stent thrombosis in DM, and performed a frequentist network meta-analysis. We also performed a sensitivity analysis of trials that exclusively enrolled patients with acute coronary syndrome. Results In 16 randomized controlled trials comprising 16,376 adults with DM, there was no significant difference in NACE, MACE, stent thrombosis, or major bleeding between pairwise comparisons of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months of DAPT, except for a signal for lower bleeding with 3 months of DAPT compared to 12 (risk ratio, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.51-0.99). Sensitivity analysis of trials that solely included acute coronary syndrome similarly showed no significant difference in MACE between 1, 3, 6, and 12 months of DAPT. Conclusions Our study found no meaningful difference in NACE or MACE between pairwise comparisons of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months of DAPT by study-level meta-analysis of patients with DM, with lower bleeding risk observed with 3 months than with 12 months of DAPT. This finding may provide clinicians greater flexibility to personalize patients' DAPT duration based on other non-DM comorbidities that might affect bleeding or thrombosis risk.

Abstract
According to the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association, warfarin has historically been the standard of care anticoagulant for the treatment of left ventricular thrombus. The use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has become more prevalent, as they require less frequent laboratory monitoring, offer fixed-dose regimens, are associated with fewer drug-drug and drug-food interactions, and provide more favorable safety profiles when compared to warfarin. However, DOACs are not currently FDA-indicated in the treatment of left ventricular (LV) thrombus. Numerous recent studies have reported and evaluated the use of DOACs for treatment of LV thrombus. Recently, a prospective, open-label, multicenter study evaluated warfarin compared to DOACs for LV thrombus treatment. The AHA recently published a scientific statement regarding the management of patients at risk for and with left ventricular thrombus, which included DOACs as a reasonable alternative to warfarin. This report describes two patients treated with DOACs following LV thrombus diagnosis. The first case is a 71-year-old male admitted for cerebrovascular accident and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction complicated by a LV thrombus. The second case is an 83-year-old female admitted for acute myocardial infarction complicated with an LV thrombus. Both patients were prescribed apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily. Neither patient has experienced LV thrombus or DOAC treatment related complications. This case series serves as evidence for reduced-dose DOACs as an alternative to warfarin in the treatment of LV thrombus.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) represents the cornerstone of secondary prevention in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Despite its undisputed efficacy in reducing thrombotic events, DAPT increases the risk of bleeding, which is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Novel antiplatelet strategies (i.e. in terms of timing, selection of drugs and their combinations, and modulation strategies) have been tested in randomized trials, suggesting the utility of tailored approaches in selected populations (i.e. patients at high bleeding or ischemic risk). It remains uncertain whether the effect of these strategies is influenced by sex. AREAS COVERED This narrative review provides an overview of available evidence surrounding sex differences in the efficacy and safety of antiplatelet strategies for ACS and analyzes the potential reasons behind these findings. Relevant content was searched for in PubMed. EXPERT OPINION Significant differences between women and men exist in terms of clinical presentation, pharmacotherapies, interventional management, and prognosis of ACS. However, these observations do not appear to be attributed to different pharmacodynamic effects of antiplatelet therapies between women and men. Unfortunately, a critical issue depends on women being often underrepresented in clinical trials, leading to a substantial lack of sex-specific evidence.

Abstract
Current guidelines for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) recommend dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for 12 months. Since bleeding is the main Achilles' heel of DAPT, in recent years several randomized controlled trials have evaluated the safety and efficacy of de-escalation of DAPT with respect to ischaemic and bleeding endpoints. These trials can be broadly divided into studies evaluating a shorter duration of DAPT, and those studies in which DAPT that includes a potent P2Y12 inhibitor, such as prasugrel or ticagrelor, is compared to less intense DAPT, mainly clopidogrel or reduced-dose prasugrel. We sought to evaluate the studies assessing de-escalation of DAPT in patients with ACS undergoing PCI. We review the studies evaluating the strategies of de-escalation of DAPT intensity and those evaluating a strategy of de-escalation of DAPT duration in ACS patients undergoing PCI. We summarize the limitations of studies to date, gaps in evidence and make recommendations for future studies.

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
BACKGROUND Patterns of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) use beyond 1 year post-myocardial infarction (MI) have not been well studied. METHODS TIGRIS (NCT01866904) was a prospective, multi-center (369 centers in 24 countries), observational study of patients 1 to 3 years post-MI. We sought to identify the prevalence and determinants of DAPT use ≥1 year post-MI in patients enrolled in TIGRIS. We used multivariable logistic regression to identify determinants of DAPT use at 396 days post-MI (365 days plus a 31day overrun period to account for intended DAPT discontinuation at 1 year). Patients treated with an oral anticoagulant were excluded. RESULTS Of 7708 patients (median age 67 years, women 25%, ST-elevation MI 50%), 39% and 16% were on DAPT at 396 days and 5 years post-MI, respectively. DAPT use at 396 days post-MI was more prevalent in patients <65 years of age, treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (versus coronary artery bypass grafting or medical therapy), and with multivessel disease or a history of angina. Additional clinical determinants of ischemic and/or bleeding events following MI (diabetes, second prior MI, hypertension, peripheral artery disease, heart failure, smoking, and renal insufficiency) were not independently associated with DAPT use at 396 days. There were geographic variations in the use of DAPT at 396 days (p<0.001), with the lowest use in Europe and the highest in Asia and Australia. CONCLUSION In a contemporary patient cohort, DAPT use beyond 1 year post MI was prevalent and associated with patient and index event characteristics. There were marked geographical variations in DAPT use beyond 1 year post MI.

Comparison of Performance between ARC-HBR Criteria and PRECISE-DAPT Score in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10122566.

Abstract
The proper management of bleeding risk in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is critical. Recently, the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria have been proposed as a standardized tool for predicting bleeding risk. We sought to compare the predictive performance of ARC-HBR criteria and the PRECISE-DAPT score for bleeding in Korean patients undergoing PCI. We recruited 1418 consecutive patients undergoing PCI from January 2012 through December 2018 (Dong-A University Medical Center, Busan, Korea). The ARC-HBR and PRECISE-DAPT scores showed a high AUC for three bleeding definitions (AUC 0.75 and 0.77 for BARC 3 to 5; AUC 0.68 and 0.71 for TIMI minor to major; AUC 0.81 and 0.82 for GUSTO moderate to severe, respectively) and all-cause death (AUC 0.82 and 0.82, respectively). When compared with the ARC-HBR score, the discriminant ability of the PRECISE-DAPT score was not significantly different for bleeding events and all-cause death. The ARC-HBR criteria and PRECISE-DAPT scores demonstrated reasonably good discriminatory capacity with respect to 1-year bleeding events in Korean patients treated with DAPT, regardless of the bleeding definition. Our findings also suggest that the simple PRECISE-DAPT score is as useful as ARC-HBR criteria in predicting bleeding and all-cause death after PCI.

Abstract
One of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide is coronary artery disease, a condition characterized by the narrowing of the artery due to plaque deposits. The standard of care for treating this disease is the introduction of a stent at the lesion site. This life-saving tubular device ensures vessel support, keeping the blood-flow path open so that the cardiac muscle receives its vital nutrients and oxygen supply. Several generations of stents have been iteratively developed towards improving patient outcomes and diminishing adverse side effects following the implanting procedure. Moving from bare-metal stents to drug-eluting stents, and recently reaching bioresorbable stents, this research field is under continuous development. To keep up with how stent technology has advanced in the past few decades, this paper reviews the evolution of these devices, focusing on how they can be further optimized towards creating an ideal vascular scaffold.

Abstract
There is controversy in clinical application of antiplatelet drugs by monitoring platelet function. Therefore, we explored whether early and dynamic medication could bring better clinical outcomes for patients under the guidance of platelet function tests (PFT).In this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed the prognostic events of 1550 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) at Tianjin People's Hospital in China. They received dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from January 2017 to December 2018. The primary endpoint was based on the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 3 or 5 major bleeding. Secondary endpoints included MACCE (all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, stent thrombosis, and unplanned target vessel reconstruction) and BARC 1 to 2 minor bleeding. The endpoint events within 1 year after PCI were recorded. Patients were divided into a guided group and a control group according to the drug adjustment by PFT results. After the propensity scores matched, the end points of 2 groups were compared, and subgroup analysis was performed on major bleeding events.After propensity score matching, there were 511 cases in the guided group and the control group, respectively. The primary endpoint events occurred in 10 patients (1.96%) in the guided group and 23 patients (4.5%) in the control group (HR: 0.45; 95% CI, 0.21-0.95; P = .037). After the guided group adjusted drug doses, the risk of major bleeding was lower than standard DAPT of the control group. Although some patients in the guided group reduced doses earlier, the incidence of MACCE events did not increase in the guided group compared with the control group (4.89% vs 6.07%; P = .41). There was no statistical difference in BARC 1 to 2 minor bleeding (P = .22). Subgroup analysis showed that PFT was more effective in patients with diabetes and multivessel disease.Early observation of dynamic PFT in ACS patients after PCI can guide individualized antiplatelet therapy to reduce the risk of major bleeding without increasing the risk of ischemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to develop a risk model incorporating clinical, angiographic, and physiological parameters to predict future clinical events after drug-eluting stent implantation. BACKGROUND Prognostic factors after coronary stenting have not been comprehensively investigated. METHODS A risk model to predict target vessel failure (TVF) at 2 years was developed from 2,200 patients who underwent second-generation drug-eluting stent implantation and post-stent fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement. TVF was defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization. A random survival forest model with automatic feature selection by minimal depth analysis was used for risk model development. RESULTS During 2 years of follow-up, the cumulative incidence of TVF was 5.9%. From clinical, angiographic, and physiological parameters, 6 variables were selected for the risk model in order of importance within the model as follows: total stent length, post-stent FFR, age, post-stent percentage diameter stenosis, reference vessel diameter, and diabetes mellitus. Harrell's C index of the random survival forest model was 0.72 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.62 to 0.82). This risk model showed better prediction ability than models with clinical risk factors alone (Harrell's C index = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.41 to 0.59; p for comparison = 0.005) and with clinical risk factors and angiographic parameters (Harrell's C index = 0.65; 95% CI: 0.52 to 0.77; p for comparison = 0.045). When the patients were divided into 2 groups according to the median of total stent length (30 mm), post-stent FFR and total stent length showed the highest variable importance in the short- and long-stent groups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS A risk model incorporating clinical, angiographic, and physiological predictors can help predict the risk for TVF at 2 years after coronary stenting. Total stent length and post-stent FFR were the most important predictors. (International Post PCI FFR Registry; NCT04012281).

Bleeding risk in patients with acute coronary syndrome in a Turkish population: Results from the Turkish Acute Coronary Syndrome Registry (TACSER) study. Eur J Clin Invest 2020; 50:e13271. [PMID: 32592511 DOI: 10.1111/eci.13271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2019] [Revised: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 05/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bleeding is one of the most important causes of mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study therefore aimed to investigate bleeding risk in patients with ACS who were scheduled to receive dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Turkey. METHODS This was a multicentre, observational, cross-sectional cohort study. The study population included 963 patients with ACS from 12 centres in Turkey. We used the Predicting Bleeding Complication in Patients Undergoing Stent Implantation and Subsequent Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (PRECISE-DAPT) score to predict the bleeding risk for all the patients. The patients were divided into high (≥25) or low (˂25) bleeding risk groups based on their PRECISE-DAPT scores. RESULTS The mean PRECISE-DAPT score was 21.9. Overall, 32.2% of the patients had high PRECISE-DAPT scores (≥25). Compared with the male patients, the female patients had higher PRECISE-DAPT scores (28.2 ± 15.7 vs 18.4 ± 13.6, P ˂ .001). Among the females, the rate of patients with a PRECISE-DAPT score ≥25 was 53%, while among the male patients, the score occurred at a rate of 22%. The female patients had lower haemoglobin (Hb) levels than the male patients (12.1 ± 1.7 vs 13.8 ± 1.9, P ˂ .001) and lower creatinine clearance (70.7 ± 27.5 vs 88.7 ± 26.3, P ˂ .001). The in-hospital bleeding rates were higher among the patients with high PRECISE-DAPT scores than among those who did not have high scores. Furthermore, the patients with high PRECISE-DAPT scores had a higher in-hospital mortality rate compared with those with low PRECISE-DAPT scores (1% vs 0%, P = .11). CONCLUSIONS The mean PRECISE-DAPT score was high among the patients with ACS in this study, indicating that the bleeding tendency was high. This study showed that the PRECISE-DAPT score may help physicians determine the type and duration of DAPT, especially in patients with ACS in Turkey.

Abstract
To date, DAPT duration of 1 year is the standard treatment for ACS patients after DES implantation in China. However, less is known about the effect of prolonging DAPT duration of long-term outcome for this kind of patient in the real world of China. We carried out a large sample case in the biggest cardiovascular center in China to observe the effect of prolonging DAPT duration for more than 1 year on long-term outcome in ACS patients after PCI. We enrolled 5187 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent DES implantation from January 2013 to December 2013. We recorded when DAPT was discontinued, and analyzed patients' data comparing different DAPT durations (DAPT = 1 year or >1 year). Two-year clinical outcomes were compared between patients from the two groups. The baseline characteristics were almost the same between the two groups, except the number of stents per patient (DAPT = 1 year vs. >1 year, 1.80 ± 1.02 vs. 1.86 ± 1.05, p = .04). Patients with DAPT = 1 year had a higher incidence of all-cause death (1.8% vs. 0.1%, p < .01), cardiac death (0.8% vs. 0.1%, p < .01), and stent thrombosis (0.7% vs. 0.2%, p < .01) vs. DAPT > 1 year, respectively. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the number of stents per patient was an independent factor for prolonged DAPT (odds ratio: 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.14, p = .03). Cox regression analysis showed that the independent risk predictors of all-cause death were age and cardiac dysfunction, whereas the independent protective predictors were body mass index and DAPT > 1 year. In the subgroup analysis of high bleeding risk, the DAPT > 1-year group still experienced a lower incidence of all-cause death. For patients with ACS undergoing DES implantation, 1 year of DAPT may be not sufficient. Appropriate prolongation of DAPT may relate to the reduction of the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events and it does not increase the bleeding events, even for the patients with high bleeding risk.

Abstract
Background Although recommended in the guidelines, the safety of chronic P2Y12 inhibitor therapy in patients with chronic kidney disease ( CKD ) after an acute myocardial infarction ( MI ) is not well studied. Methods and Results The TRANSLATE -ACS (Treatment with ADP Inhibitors: Longitudinal Assessment of Treatment Patterns and Events After Acute Coronary Syndrome) study included 11 108 MI patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention and discharged alive on a P2Y12 inhibitor from 233 US hospitals. We compared rates of GUSTO (Global Use of Strategies to Open Occluded Arteries) severe/moderate bleeding and premature discontinuation of P2Y12 inhibitor by 1 year after MI among patients with varying CKD severity. The majority of MI patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention had CKD : 42% had stage 2 (mild), 27% had stage 3 (moderate), and 4% had stage ≥4 (severe/end stage). Higher potency P2Y12 inhibitors (prasugrel or ticagrelor) were prescribed at discharge in 39%, 35%, 23%, and 15% ( P<0.01) of patients with stages 1, 2, 3, and ≥4, respectively. One-year GUSTO severe/moderate bleeding rates were higher with each stage of CKD : 1% in patients with CKD stage 1 or no CKD , 2% with an adjusted hazard ratio of 1.61 (95% CI, 1.05-2.35) for CKD stage 2, 4% with an adjusted hazard ratio of 1.92 (95% CI, 1.21-3.02) for CKD stage 3, and 10% with an adjusted hazard ratio of 2.44 (95% CI, 1.40-4.23) for patients with CKD stage ≥4. By 1 year after MI , 16% of patients overall had prematurely discontinued P2Y12 inhibitor therapy; however, this rate was not largely affected by CKD stage. Premature P2Y12 inhibitor-discontinuation rates were higher for patients discharged on higher potency P2Y12 inhibitors in patients with CKD stage ≥2 ( P<0.01). Conclusions CKD severity was associated with a higher bleeding risk among those with acute MI treated with a P2Y12 inhibitor. Patients with more advanced CKD were not significantly more likely than those with less advance CKD to prematurely discontinue P2Y12 inhibitor therapy.

Abstract
Inhibition of platelet function by means of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is the cornerstone of treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). While preventing ischemic recurrences, inhibition of platelet function is clearly associated with an increased bleeding risk, a feared complication that may lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Since bleeding risk management is intrinsically associated with therapeutic adjustments undertaken during the whole clinical history of patients with acute coronary syndrome, single decisions taken from the very first day to years of follow-up might be decisive. This review aims at providing a clinically oriented, patient-tailored approach in reducing the risk and manage bleeding complications in ACS patients treated with DAPT. The steps in clinical decision making from the day of ACS to follow-up are analyzed. New treatment strategies to enhance the safety of DAPT are also described.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is common in patients on dialysis; there is a high rate of bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in such patients. We investigated the impact of bleeding events after PCI on mortality in patients on hemodialysis. We included 386 consecutive hemodialysis patients who underwent PCI using a drug-eluting stent (DES) between September 2004 and December 2017 in our hospital, and investigated the impact of bleeding events on all-cause mortality after PCI. Bleeding events were assessed by the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) bleeding definition within 24 months after PCI. A total of 42 patients experienced bleeding events. Of these, 30 patients (71.4%) had TIMI major bleeding events and 12 patients (28.6%) had TIMI minor bleeding events. Patients with bleeding events had significantly higher mortality than patients without bleeding events (survival rate, 55.1% vs 81.5%, log-rank: p < 0.001). These results suggest that bleeding events after PCI with a DES are notably associated with all-cause mortality among patients on hemodialysis. This is the first report about relationship between bleeding events and mortality to focus on patients on hemodialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in the form of aspirin plus a P2 Y12 inhibitor, when indicated, is one of the key treatments in coronary artery disease (CAD). Many recommendations on DAPT in patients with CAD based on current guidelines are largely inconsistent. In our current study, we aimed at systematically reviewing DAPT-relevant clinical practice guidelines, and highlighting their commonalities and differences for better informed decision-making. METHODS Contemporary guidelines in English were searched in MEDLINE, Embase and websites of guideline organizations and professional societies. Guidelines with recommendations on DAPT for CAD patients were included. Guideline quality was appraised with the 6-domain Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) instrument. The reporting of conflicts of interest (COI) was assessed individually with supplementary items from the RIGHT (Reporting Item for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare) checklist. Meanwhile, extraction of recommendations was performed. RESULTS A total of 18 guidelines fulfilled our inclusion criteria. Most of them were graded with relatively good scores averaging from 42% to 74%. Domains for lower scores were in "stakeholder involvement" and "application." The reporting of COI was satisfactory. For the recommendations on DAPT, most guidelines with high AGREE II scores included consistent recommendations on the timing and P2 Y12 inhibitor selection. Nonetheless, conflicts still exist on the duration of DAPT. CONCLUSIONS Quality of guidelines for DAPT in CAD was relatively high, though defects existed in "Applicability" and "Stakeholder Involvement." As these guidelines developed, DAPT recommendations gradually converged on a consensus. Clinical decision should be made on an individual basis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to estimate the annual pharmaceutical costs for patients with stable coronary artery disease, using Australian administrative data, comparing patients who had undergone interventional treatment with those had not. We also aimed to compare the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) prescription in the real-world, with recommended guidelines. DESIGN An observational study using administrative data. PARTICIPANTS We used data from the QSkin study, a population-based prospective study assessing skin cancer risk. Participants were invited from the Queensland population, not based on perceived skin cancer risk, and had consented to future use of their data for approved research projects. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We calculated 12-month costs of pharmaceutical therapy for coronary artery disease for patients in each of three clinically relevant groups: medical therapy only, following coronary stent implantation and following coronary artery bypass graft surgery. We measured the duration of DAPT following stent implantation and total duration of DAPT, where it was prescribed, in the medical therapy only group. RESULTS Estimated mean annual pharmaceutical costs were highest in the stent group at AUD$1920, compared with AUD$1481 in the medical therapy group, and AUD$881 in the coronary artery bypass group. There were similar rates of prescriptions of symptom relief drugs following stent insertion, compared with the medical therapy only group. The median duration of DAPT in the stent group was 16, and 31 months in the medical therapy group. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that despite the common expectation that the burden of medical therapy is reduced following coronary stent insertion for stable coronary artery disease, this does not occur in practice. Many patients also appear to continue DAPT longer than guidelines recommend, which may put them at unnecessarily elevated risk of bleeding events.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims
The aim of the present study was to establish the safety and efficacy profile of prasugrel and ticagrelor in real-life acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with renal dysfunction.
Methods and results
All consecutive patients from RENAMI (REgistry of New Antiplatelets in patients with Myocardial Infarction) and BLEEMACS (Bleeding complications in a Multicenter registry of patients discharged with diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndrome) registries were stratified according to estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) lower or greater than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Death and myocardial infarction (MI) were the primary efficacy endpoints. Major bleedings (MBs), defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium bleeding types 3 to 5, constituted the safety endpoint. A total of 19 255 patients were enrolled. Mean age was 63 ± 12; 14 892 (77.3%) were males. A total of 2490 (12.9%) patients had chronic kidney disease (CKD), defined as eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Mean follow-up was 13 ± 5 months. Mortality was significantly higher in CKD patients (9.4% vs. 2.6%, P < 0.0001), as well as the incidence of reinfarction (5.8% vs. 2.9%, P < 0.0001) and MB (5.7% vs. 3%, P < 0.0001). At Cox multivariable analysis, potent P2Y12 inhibitors significantly reduced the mortality rate [hazard ratio (HR) 0.82, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.54–0.96; P = 0.006] and the risk of reinfarction (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.30–0.95; P = 0.033) in CKD patients as compared to clopidogrel. The reduction of risk of reinfarction was confirmed in patients with preserved renal function. Potent P2Y12 inhibitors did not increase the risk of MB in CKD patients (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.59–1.68; P = 0.985).
Conclusion
In ACS patients with CKD, prasugrel and ticagrelor are associated with lower risk of death and recurrent MI without increasing the risk of MB.

Abstract
Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ischemic diseases seriously affect human health. Endovascular stent placement is an effective treatment but always leads to in-stent restenosis (ISR). Gene-eluting stent, which combines gene therapy with stent implantation, is a potential method to prevent ISR. In this study, an efficient gene-eluting stent was designed on the basis of one new nucleic acid delivery system to decrease the possibility of ISR. The reduction-responsive branched nucleic acid vector (SKP) with low cytotoxicity was first synthesized via ring-opening reaction. The impressive in vitro transfection performances of SKP were proved using luciferase reporter, enhanced green fluorescent protein plasmid, and vascular endothelial growth factor plasmid (pVEGF). Subsequently, SKP/pVEGF complexes were coated on the surfaces of pretreated clinical stents to construct gene-eluting stents (S-SKP/pVEGF). Antirestenosis performance of S-SKP/pVEGF was evaluated via implanting stents into rabbit aortas. S-SKP/pVEGF could lead to the localized upregulation of VEGF proteins, improve the progress of re-endothelialization, and inhibit the development of ISR in vivo. Such efficient pVEGF-eluting stent with responsive nucleic acid delivery systems is very promising to prevent in-stent restenosis of cerebrovascular diseases.

Choi SY, Kim MH, Serebruany V. Comparison of ACUITY, CRUSADE, and GRACE Risk Scales for Predicting Clinical Outcomes in Patients Treated with Dual-Antiplatelet Therapy. TH OPEN 2019; 2:e399-e406. [PMID: 31249967 PMCID: PMC6524904 DOI: 10.1055/s-0038-1675576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2018] [Accepted: 09/17/2018] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Several reliable scales have been proposed for the management and prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) treated with dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). We sought to compare the performance of three conventional risk scores to predict major bleeding (MB; such as ACUITY or CRUSADE), or major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE for GRACE). This study included 904 consecutive post-ACS patients from the single Korean study center who underwent coronary interventions, and were treated with DAPT. All three scores were calculated based on admission data. MB and MACE were collected at 30-day and 1-year follow-ups. MB was defined according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria (types 3–5), and MACE included all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, and stroke. MB occurred in 114 patients (12.6%) during 30 days, and 65 patients (7.2%) from 30 days till 1-year follow-up. MACE occurred in 28 (3.1%) and 72 (8.0%) patients during 30 and 30 days till 1 year, respectively. For 30 days MB, the discriminatory ability of ACUITY (AUC: 0.83, 95% CI: 0.81–0.86) and CRUSADE (AUC: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.79–0.84) was similar, and more reliable than GRACE (AUC: 0.74, 95% CI: 0.71–0.77;
p
< 0.0001 and
p
= 0.002, respectively). The predictive value for 1-year MB was similar between ACUITY (AUC: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.72–0.78,
p
< 0.0001), CRUSADE (AUC: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.70–0.73,
p
< 0.0001), and GRACE (AUC: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.67–0.73,
p
< 0.0001) classifications. All three risk scales exhibited similar prediction for 30-day and 1-year MACE. We conclude that ACUITY and CRUSADE scores were superior to GRACE in predicting 30-day MB. However, all three risk scales were similarly useful for long-term MB, and MACE assessment.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The effect of gender on use of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is not well established. The purpose of this review is to understand gender-based differences in response to DAPT, so that treatment of ACS can be optimized in women to prevent ischemic events while minimizing bleeding risk. RECENT FINDINGS There are innate gender differences in platelet reactivity and response. However, it is unknown if this translates into differences in clinical outcomes. In all major studies evaluating the effect of DAPT in ACS, women are underrepresented. Hence, the results from the existing trials cannot be generalizable to women. There is a significant knowledge gap regarding how to balance the bleeding and ischemic risk profile among women with ACS. Currently, there is no recommendation to consider gender as covariate in choosing the type of antiplatelet drug or duration. The existing clinical evidence is limited by under representation of women in DAPT trials. The current literature does not strongly support considering gender in decision making regarding type or duration of DAPT after ACS. Future dedicated trial designs with adequate representation from women and gender specific analysis from large registry data are warranted to enhance our understanding of the interaction of gender with DAPT after ACS.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has been a topic of considerable interest in recent years, as the risk of stent thrombosis has decreased with newer generation stents and the impact of significant bleeding events on clinical outcomes is increasingly apparent. The purpose of this review is to highlight the landmark studies examining short-duration (6 months or less) and extended-duration (greater than 12 months) DAPT as well as provide information about prediction tools to help guide individualized patient treatment decisions. RECENT FINDINGS Short-duration DAPT is acceptably safe when clinically necessary, though recent trials demonstrate non-significant trends towards increased risk of ischemic events with shorter durations. Extended-duration DAPT clearly confers a reduced risk of subsequent ischemic events but at an increased risk of bleeding. Understanding the perceived ischemic and bleeding risks for each individual patient is paramount in deciding targeted DAPT duration. For patients at a higher bleeding risk with a low ischemic risk, short-duration DAPT (6 months) is acceptable. For patients with continued ischemic risk factors and a low bleeding risk, extended-duration DAPT (up to 30 months) is recommended. The PRECISE DAPT and DAPT prediction tools are helpful in making this determination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Women may derive differential benefit from prolonged DAPT (dual antiplatelet therapy) after coronary stenting than men. We assessed whether the risks/benefits of prolonged DAPT differ between women and men. METHODS AND RESULTS The DAPT study was a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing continued thienopyridine versus placebo beyond 12 months after coronary stenting. We compared rates of myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and bleeding by sex and randomized treatment. Of 11 648 patients, women (N=2925) were older, with higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus and lower rates of acute coronary syndrome than men. At 12 to 30 months, women had similar adjusted ischemic and bleeding events as men. The effects of continued thienopyridine therapy did not differ significantly by sex for stent thrombosis (women: hazard ratio [HR], 0.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.22-1.36; men: HR, 0.26; 95% CI, 0.15-0.44; interaction P=0.17), myocardial infarction (women: HR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.50-1.14; men: HR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.36-0.60; interaction P=0.052), major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (women: HR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.62-1.22; men: HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.58-0.85; interaction P=0.26), and bleeding (women: HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 0.88-2.40; men: HR, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.28-2.49; interaction P=0.50). CONCLUSIONS Women had similar late risks of ischemia and bleeding as men after coronary stent procedures. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov .

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder associated with accelerated atherogenesis and an increased risk of atherothrombotic complications. Multiple mechanisms contribute to the pro-thrombotic status which characterizes DM patients underscoring the importance of antiplatelet therapies used for secondary prevention in these patients. For many years, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and the P2Y12 inhibitor clopidogrel has represented the mainstay of treatment following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Although DAPT reduces the incidence of atherothrombotic recurrences, these rates remain high in DM patients underscoring the need for more efficacious therapies. Oral platelet P2Y12 receptor inhibitors with enhanced potency, such as prasugrel and ticagrelor, as well as antiplatelet therapies such as vorapaxar inhibiting the thrombin-mediated platelet signaling pathway, constitute treatment opportunities for patients with DM and have shown to be associated with a greater reduction in ischemic recurrences, albeit at the cost of more bleeding. This article reviews currently available antiplatelet agents and delivers an update on the advances and drawbacks of these agents used for secondary prevention in DM patients experiencing an ACS or undergoing PCI.

Abstract
Compared with younger people, elderly people have higher risks for both thrombosis and bleeding. Furthermore, comorbidities frequently found in elderly patients complicate the management of antithrombotic therapy. Thus, when treating these patients, physicians often find it difficult to incorporate the principles of evidence-based medicine and must determine the best treatment option for each patient. Recently, in the fields of cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases, researchers have been rapidly accumulating new data regarding antithrombotic therapy, particularly in the areas of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). However, information related to elderly patients receiving antithrombotic therapy is still relatively limited. There are also more and more publications describing how antithrombotic therapy affects the pathogenesis of non-thrombotic diseases. Similarly, the number of reports concerning adherence to this therapy has been increasing lately. However, no review articles detailing these findings have yet been published. In actual clinical practice, antithrombotic therapy in the elderly is not a treatment strategy targeted to only one organ or disease. Rather, it requires an interdisciplinary approach aimed at maintaining the overall health of the patient. Thus, to assist physicians’ decision-making processes for elderly patients, an overview of recent findings related to the evidence regarding concomitant medications, the secondary benefits of antithrombotic therapy for patients with comorbidities, and evidence regarding medication adherence is provided.

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy, consisting of aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor antagonist, has been the cornerstone of management in those undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, reducing stent thromboses and cardiovascular events. Given the pivotal role of aspirin in cardiovascular disease management, patients with aspirin hypersensitivity pose complex clinical challenges. Allergy to aspirin is reported in 1.5-2.6% of patients presenting with cardiac disease. Identification of the subtype of aspirin hypersensitivity will determine suitability for aspirin desensitization, dictate choice of desensitization protocol and inform risk management. Aspirin desensitization is an effective and viable clinical strategy, although it remains underutilised in clinical practice. Collaboration between cardiologists and immunologists should be strongly encouraged to facilitate optimal management of such patients. This review describes the complexity of managing patients with aspirin hypersensitivity in cardiac disease, the indications and risks of aspirin desensitization, and the approach to management of the minority of patients who are unsuitable for desensitization.

Abstract
Evidence from studies published more than 10 years ago suggested that patients receiving first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) needed dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for at least 12 months. Current evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCT) reported within the past five years suggests that patients with stable ischaemic heart disease who receive newer-generation DES need DAPT for a minimum of three to six months. Patients who undergo stenting for an acute coronary syndrome benefit from DAPT for at least 12 months, but a Bayesian network meta-analysis confirms that extending DAPT beyond 12 months confers a trade-off between reduced ischaemic events and increased bleeding. However, the network meta-analysis finds no credible increase in all-cause mortality if DAPT is lengthened from three to six months to 12 months (posterior median odds ratio [OR] 0.98; 95% Bayesian credible interval [BCI]: 0.73-1.43), from 12 months to 18-48 months (OR 0.87; 95% BCI: 0.64-1.17), or from three to six months to 18-48 months (OR 0.86; 95% BCI: 0.63-1.21). Future investigation should focus on identifying scoring systems that have excellent discrimination and calibration. Although predictive models should be incorporated into systems of care, most decisions about DAPT duration will be based on clinical judgement and patient preference.

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor is the cornerstone of pharmacologic management of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or those receiving coronary stents. Long-term (>1 year) DAPT may further reduce the risk of stent thrombosis after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and may decrease the occurrence of non-stent-related ischaemic events in patients with ACS. Nevertheless, compared with aspirin alone, extended use of aspirin plus a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor may increase the risk of bleeding events that have been strongly linked to adverse outcomes including recurrent ischaemia, repeat hospitalisation and death. In the past years, multiple randomised trials have been published comparing the duration of DAPT after PCI and in ACS patients, investigating either a shorter or prolonged DAPT regimen. Although the current European Society of Cardiology guidelines provide a backup to individualised treatment, it appears to be difficult to identify the ideal patient profile which could safely reduce or prolong the DAPT duration in daily clinical practice. The aim of this consensus document is to review contemporary literature on optimal DAPT duration, and to guide clinicians in tailoring antiplatelet strategies in patients undergoing PCI or presenting with ACS.

Efficacy and safety of dual antiplatelet therapy after coronary stenting in patients with chronic kidney disease. Am Heart J 2018; 197:103-112. [PMID: 29447770 DOI: 10.1016/j.ahj.2017.11.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2017] [Accepted: 11/08/2017] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We compared efficacy and safety of short- (3 or 6 months) versus long-term (≥12 months) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, according to the presence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS Patient-level pooled analysis was performed with 7242 patients (87.2% with 2nd generation DES) from 5 randomized controlled trials. RESULTS In both CKD (1273 patients) and non-CKD (5969 patients) population, the rates of patient-oriented composite outcomes at 1-year (POCO, all-cause death, any myocardial infarction [MI], stroke and TIMI major bleeding) were not different between the short- and long-term DAPT (hazard ratio [HR] 1.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.76-1.86, P=.449 in CKD population; HR 1.14, 95% CI 0.83-1.56, P=.434 in non-CKD population). The rates of coronary thrombotic events (any MI and definite/probable stent thrombosis) also did not differ between short- and long-term DAPT in either CKD or non-CKD population. As for bleeding events, long-term DAPT increased the TIMI major bleeding (HR 2.91, 95% CI 1.31-6.48, P=.009) in non-CKD population. The similar trend was observed with long-term DAPT in CKD population. But it did not reach statistical significance (HR 3.15, 95% CI 0.64-15.63, P=.160). CONCLUSIONS The rates of POCO and coronary thrombotic events were significantly higher in patients with CKD compared with those without CKD, which were not affected by short- or long-term DAPT. Higher bleeding incidence by long-term DAPT was only observed in non-CKD patients but not in CKD patients. Further large scale studies are warranted to confirm our findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the actual dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration after drug-eluting stent (DES) treatment in China. BACKGROUND Currently, less is known about actual DAPT duration after drug-eluting stent (DES) treatment in China. Here, we performed a study in the largest cardiovascular center in China to investigate DAPT duration and identify associated factors after DES implantation. METHODS A total of 9,919 consecutive patients with DES implantation from January 2013 to December 2013 were enrolled. DAPT cessation was observed, and factors associated with different DAPT durations were analyzed. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 882 days. The proportion of patients with DAPT coverage at 1-year of follow-up was 97.3%, and it decreased to 30.1% for 2 years. The distribution of DAPT duration was not significantly different among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) versus non-AMI (P = 0.41) and with new-generation DES versus first-generation DES (P = 0.54). The multivariable analysis indicated some independent predictors prolonging DAPT duration, including target vessel revascularization (OR 2.50, 95% CI 2.04-3.06, P < 0.001), stent numbers (OR 1.10, 95% CI 1.05-1.15, P < 0.001), and previous coronary artery bypass grafting (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.61-0.96, P = 0.02). Other clinical factors, such as the increased risk of bleeding and high ischemic risk, were not associated with DAPT duration. CONCLUSIONS The 1-year DAPT after DES was applied to 97.3% of Chinese patients in the studied clinical center. However, the DAPT duration after 1 year was not adjusted according to the patients' bleeding situation and ischemic risks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic patients account for an increasing number of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased residual platelet activity during dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) and DM patients have worse clinical outcomes after PCI as compared to non-DM. OBJECTIVE To evaluate efficacy and safety of short duration DAPT (S-DAPT) and long duration DAPT (L-DAPT) after drug eluting stent (DES) implantation in DM and non-DM patients. METHODS We searched Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of S-DAPT versus L-DAPT after DES implantation in DM and non-DM patients. Efficacy endpoints were all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), stent thrombosis (ST), target vessel revascularization (TVR), and composite end point of net adverse clinical events (NACE) (all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, MI, ST, TVR, stroke, major bleeding). Safety endpoints were major bleeding and stroke. Event rates were compared using a forest plot of relative risk using a random effects model. RESULTS We included eight RCTs that randomized 28,318 patients to S-DAPT versus L-DAPT (8234 DM and 20,084 non-DM). S-DAPT was associated with an increased rate of ST in non-DM patients [3.67 (2.04, 6.59)]. There was no significant difference in the rate of all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, ST, MI, TVR, major bleeding, stroke and NACE with S-DAPT and L-DAPT in DM patients [1.19 (0.72-1.95); 1.25 (0.69, 2.25); 1.52 (0.70, 3.29); 1.33 (0.88, 2.01); 1.39 (0.89, 2.17); 0.92 (0.19, 4.42); 0.98 (0.29, 3.28); and 0.94 (0.57, 1.54) respectively]. Further, there was no significant difference in the rate of all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, MI, TVR, major bleeding, stroke and NACE with S-DAPT and L-DAPT in non-DM patients [0.93 (0.58, 1.48); 0.75 (0.42, 1.35); 1.52 (0.81, 2.83); 0.99 (0.71, 1.39); 0.72 (0.28, 1.84); 1.01 (0.40, 2.56); and 1.01 (0.77, 1.32) respectively]. CONCLUSION Compared to L-DAPT, S-DAPT was associated with significant increase in rate of ST in non-DM patients. Duration of DAPT had no significant impact on rates of all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, MI, ST and TVR among DM patients.

Percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stent versus coronary artery bypass grafting: A meta-analysis of patients with left main coronary artery disease. Int J Cardiol 2017; 249:101-106.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relative efficacy and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES), in comparison to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) remains controversial. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of randomised studies comparing patients with LMCAD treated with PCI with DES versus those treated with CABG, with respect to clinical outcomes at 1, 3 and 5years. A secondary meta-analysis was performed according to low (<32), or high (≥33) SYNTAX score. RESULTS Five studies comprising 4595 patients were included. There was no significant difference in all-cause death at all time points or when stratified with respect to SYNTAX score. The need for repeat revascularization was significantly higher with PCI at all time-points, and regardless of SYNTAX score. There was significant association between need for repeat revascularization with PCI and diabetics (p=0.04). At 5years, non-fatal MI was higher with PCI owing to increased non-procedural events (OR 3.00; CI 1.45-6.21; p=0.003). CABG showed higher rate of stroke at 1year (OR 0.21; CI 0.07-0.63; p=0.005). There was no difference in non-fatal MI or stroke at other time points, nor according to SYNTAX score. CONCLUSIONS PCI with DES or CABG are equivalent strategies for LMCAD up to 5years with respect to death, regardless of SYNTAX score. PCI increases the rate of non-procedural MI at 5years. CABG avoids the need for repeat revascularization, especially in diabetics, but this benefit is offset by higher rate of stroke in the first year of follow up.

Abstract
SummaryThe DAPT score is a recently-proposed decision tool for guiding optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). It showed modest accuracy in prior derivation and validation cohorts of patients with ≥12 months DAPT. This study was aimed to evaluate the validity of the DAPT score in a cohort of patients with 6 or 12 months DAPT after implantation of predominantly second-generation drug-eluting stents. We analyzed data of patients enrolled in the ISAR-SAFE trial. Patients were classified into low (<2) or high (≥2) DAPT score groups. Primary ischaemic (all-cause death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis or stroke) and bleeding (TIMI major or minor) outcomes were analyzed in the low and high DAPT score groups. Data of 3976 patients were available for DAPT score calculation. 2407 patients (60.5%) were classified in the low DAPT score group and 1569 patients (39.5%) in the high DAPT score group. In the low DAPT score group there were no significant differences between 6 and 12 months DAPT regarding ischaemic (1.0% vs. 1.4%, HR=0.74, 95% CI, 0.35–1.57; p=0.43) or bleeding outcomes (0.3% vs. 0.8%, HR=0.44, 95% CI, 0.13–1.42; p=0.17). In the high DAPT score group there were also no significant differences between 6 and 12 months DAPT regarding ischaemic (1.9% vs. 1.8%, HR=1.02, 95% CI, 0.49–2.14; p=0.96) or bleeding (0.3% vs. 0.5%, HR=0.51, 95% CI, 0.09–2.78; p=0.44) outcomes. In conclusion, the DAPT score failed to show a differential treatment effect in patients receiving 6 or 12 months DAPT after contemporary drug-eluting stent implantation.

Abstract
The optimal antithrombotic treatment regimen for patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation is an emerging clinical problem. Currently, there is limited evidenced-based data on the optimal antithrombotic treatment regimen, including antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapies, for these high-risk patients with practice guidelines, thus, providing limited recommendations. Over the past years, expert consensus documents have provided guidance to clinicians on how to manage patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Given the recent advancements in the field, the current document provides an updated opinion of selected North American experts from the United States and Canada on the treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. In particular, this document provides the current views on (1) embolic/stroke risk, (2) ischemic/thrombotic cardiac risk, and (3) bleeding risk, which are pivotal for discerning the choice of antithrombotic therapy. In addition, we describe the recent advances in pharmacology, stent designs, and clinical trials relevant to the field. Ultimately, we provide expert consensus-derived recommendations, using a pragmatic approach, on the management of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to summarize and discuss safety and effectiveness of the long-term use of ticagrelor in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). RECENT FINDINGS Ticagrelor is an orally administered, direct, and reversible inhibitor of the P2Y12-platelet receptor. Long-term use of ticagrelor in patients with previous myocardial infarction (MI) has been investigated in the PEGASUS-TIMI-54 trial. Overall, 21,162 patients with a spontaneous MI 1 to 3 years before randomization were randomly assigned to ticagrelor 90 mg bid, ticagrelor 60 mg bid, or placebo. Compared with placebo, both doses of ticagrelor showed that they were capable of significantly reducing the primary efficacy endpoint, although with a significant increase in TIMI major bleeding. Intracranial hemorrhage or fatal bleeding did not differ across groups. These findings establish clear benefit of DAPT extension with ticagrelor beyond 1 year of treatment, which comes with a tradeoff of clinically meaningful bleeding. Altogether, current evidence suggests that the duration of DAPT remains a patient-by-patient decision based on thrombotic and bleeding risk profiles.

Abstract
Aims There is a paucity of real-world, contemporary data of practice patterns and clinical outcomes following dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods and results The Canadian Observational Antiplatelet Study was a prospective, multicentre, cohort study examining adenosine diphosphate receptor antagonist use following PCI for AMI. We compared practice patterns, patient characteristics, and clinical outcomes in relation to DAPT duration (<6 weeks, 6 weeks to <6 months, 6 to <12, and ≥12 months). The primary outcome was the composite of non-fatal AMI, unplanned coronary revascularization, stent thrombosis, new or worsening heart failure, cardiogenic shock, or stroke. We identified 2034 patients with AMI treated with PCI. DAPT duration was <6 weeks in 5.2% of patients; 6 weeks to <6 months in 7.0%; 6 to <12 months in 12.6%; and ≥12 months in 75.3%. Patients who discontinued DAPT early had higher GRACE risk scores. Overall, mortality rate at 15 months was 2.5%. Compared with a duration of DAPT of ≥12 months, discontinuation of DAPT <6 weeks (P < 0.0001) and 6 weeks to <6 months (P = 0.02), but not 6 months to <12 months (P = 0.06), were independently associated with a higher incidence of the primary outcome among survivors. Conclusion One-in-four patients with AMI treated with PCI discontinued DAPT prior to the guideline-recommended 12-month duration. Patients in whom DAPT was discontinued early were at higher baseline risk and had higher rates of non-fatal ischaemic events during follow up.

Abstract
Concomitant coronary and peripheral artery disease is associated with higher periprocedural and long-term percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) complication rates. We evaluated in-hospital and 1-year clinical outcomes of patients with low or borderline ankle-brachial indexes (ABIs) undergoing PCIs in the drug-eluting stent era. We divided 1370 SHINANO registry patients into 3 groups-low (ABI ≤ 0.9), borderline (0.9 < ABI ≤ 1.0), and normal (1.0 ≤ ABI < 1.4). During the 1-year follow-up, more PCI-related complications occurred in the low and borderline ABI groups than in the normal ABI group (7.7% vs 8.8% vs 4.0%, respectively). Low ABI patients were more likely to experience adverse clinical events (6.3% vs 3.6% vs 3.0%, respectively; log-rank P = .020 for low vs normal ABI), with a hazard ratio of 2.27 (95% confidence interval, 1.12-4.61; P = .023), compared with patients with normal ABIs. Patients with abnormal ABIs had a significantly higher incidence of PCI-related complications and a less favorable 1-year prognosis. Routine ABI measurement before PCI may help predict PCI-related complication incidence and 1-year prognosis.

Jiang M, You JHS. Cost-effectiveness analysis of 30-month vs 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin after drug-eluting stents in patients with acute coronary syndrome. Clin Cardiol 2017; 40:789-796. [PMID: 28683175 DOI: 10.1002/clc.22756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2017] [Revised: 06/10/2017] [Accepted: 06/13/2017] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Continuation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) beyond 1 year reduces late stent thrombosis and ischemic events after drug-eluting stents (DES) but increases risk of bleeding. We hypothesized that extending DAPT from 12 months to 30 months in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after DES is cost-effective. A lifelong decision-analytic model was designed to simulate 2 antiplatelet strategies in event-free ACS patients who had completed 12-month DAPT after DES: aspirin monotherapy (75-162 mg daily) and continuation of DAPT (clopidogrel 75 mg daily plus aspirin 75-162 mg daily) for 18 months. Clinical event rates, direct medical costs, and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) gained were the primary outcomes from the US healthcare provider perspective. Base-case results showed DAPT continuation gained higher QALYs (8.1769 vs 8.1582 QALYs) at lower cost (USD42 982 vs USD44 063). One-way sensitivity analysis found that base-case QALYs were sensitive to odds ratio (OR) of cardiovascular death with DAPT continuation and base-case cost was sensitive to OR of nonfatal stroke with DAPT continuation. DAPT continuation remained cost-effective when the ORs of nonfatal stroke and cardiovascular death were below 1.241 and 1.188, respectively. In probabilistic sensitivity analysis, DAPT continuation was the preferred strategy in 74.75% of 10 000 Monte Carlo simulations at willingness-to-pay threshold of 50 000 USD/QALYs. Continuation of DAPT appears to be cost-effective in ACS patients who were event-free for 12-month DAPT after DES. The cost-effectiveness of DAPT for 30 months was highly subject to the OR of nonfatal stroke and OR of death with DAPT continuation.

Abstract
Dual anti-platelet therapy is prescribed in the setting of coronary heart disease for the prevention of stent thrombosis and acute thrombotic events. The optimal duration of dual anti-platelet therapy is still under debate as numerous trials have shown non-inferiority of a strategy of early cessation of one of the agents as compared to the standard practice whereas two larger trials have demonstrated benefit of prolonging dual anti-platelet therapy.

A prospective, randomized, open-label trial of 6-month versus 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stent implantation in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: Rationale and design of the "DAPT-STEMI trial". Am Heart J 2017; 188:11-17. [PMID: 28577666 DOI: 10.1016/j.ahj.2017.02.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2016] [Accepted: 02/08/2017] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention with second-generation drug eluting stents (DESs) is unclear. Because prolonged DAPT is associated with higher bleeding risk and health care costs, establishing optimal DAPT duration is of paramount importance. No other randomized controlled trials have evaluated the safety of shorter DAPT duration in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients treated with second-generation DESs and latest P2Y12 platelet receptor inhibitors. HYPOTHESIS Six months of DAPT after Resolute Integrity stent implantation in STEMI patients is not inferior to 12 months of DAPT in clinical outcomes. STUDY DESIGN The Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation In ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (DAPT-STEMI) trial is a randomized, multicenter, international, open-label trial designed to examine the safety (noninferiority) of 6-month DAPT after Resolute Integrity stent implantation in STEMI patients compared with 12-month DAPT. Event-free patients on DAPT at 6month will be randomized (1:1 fashion) between single (aspirin only) versus DAPT for an additional 6 months and followed until 2 years after primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The primary end point is a patient-oriented composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, any myocardial infarction, any revascularization, stroke, and major bleeding (net adverse clinical events [NACE]) at 18 months after randomization. To achieve a power of 85% for a noninferiority limit of 1.66, a total of 1100 enrolled patients are required. SUMMARY The DAPT-STEMI trial aims to assess in STEMI patients treated with second-generation DESs whether discontinuation of DAPT after 6 months of event-free survival is noninferior to routine 12-month DAPT.
