Abstract
INTRODUCTION The unfavourable influence of morphine on the pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor resulting in weaker and retarded antiplatelet effect in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has been previously shown. Replacing morphine with methoxyflurane, a potent, non-opioid analgesic agent, that does not weaken or delay the effect of antiplatelet agents may improve the clinical efficacy of treatment of patients with ACS. METHODS The ANEMON-SIRIO 3 study was designed as a multicentre, open-label, phase II, randomised clinical trial aimed to test the analgesic efficacy and safety of methoxyflurane in patients with ACS. The study population will comprise patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction or non-ST-elevation ACS admitted to the study centres with typical chest pain requiring analgesic treatment. Before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the patients with index ACS will be randomly assigned in 1:1 ratio to receive methoxyflurane administered by inhalation, or to obtain morphine administered intravenously. Analgesic treatment will be followed by 300 mg loading dose of aspirin and 180 mg loading dose of ticagrelor. Patients will be assessed with regard to pain intensity according to the Numeric Pain Rating Scale at baseline, 3 min after study drug administration and immediately after PCI. Moreover, patients will be actively monitored with regard to the occurrence of side effects of evaluated therapies, as well as adverse events that may be related to insufficient platelet inhibition (no-reflow phenomenon assessed immediately after PCI, administration of GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors during PCI, acute stent thrombosis). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study will be conducted in six Polish clinical centres from the beginning of in accordance with the ethical standards of the institutional research committee and with the 1964 Helsinki declaration and its later amendments or comparable ethical standards. TRIAL REGISTRATION DETAILS ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04476173.

Abstract
The increased risk of non-cardiovascular death in patients receiving clopidogrel or prasugrel in comparison with the placebo group in the Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT) trial in contrast to the decreased risk of cardiovascular death and all-cause death seen in patients treated with low-dose ticagrelor in the EU label population of the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 trial, resulted in inclusion in the 2020 ESC NSTE-ACS guidelines the recommendation for use of clopidogrel or prasugrel only if the patient is not eligible for treatment with ticagrelor. The prevalence of the primary outcome composed of cardiovascular death, stroke, or myocardial infarction was lower in the low-dose rivaroxaban and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) group than in the ASA-alone group in the COMPASS trial. Moreover, all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality rates were lower in the rivaroxaban-plus-ASA group. Comparison of the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 and COMPASS trial patient characteristics clearly shows that each of these treatment strategies should be addressed at different groups of patients. A greater benefit in post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with a high risk of ischemic events and without high bleeding risk may be expected with ASA and ticagrelor 60 mg b.i.d. when the therapy is continued without interruption or with short interruption only after ACS. On the other hand, ASA and rivaroxaban 2.5 mg b.i.d. seems to be a better option when indications for dual antithrombotic therapy (DATT) appear after a longer time from ACS (more than 2 years) and/or from cessation of DAPT (more than 1 year) and in patients with multiple vascular bed atherosclerosis. Thus, both options of DATTs complement each other rather than compete, as can be presumed from the recommendations. However, a direct comparison between these strategies should be tested in future clinical trials.

Microfludic platforms for the evaluation of anti-platelet agent efficacy under hyper-shear conditions associated with ventricular assist devices. Med Eng Phys 2017; 48:31-38. [PMID: 28869117 PMCID: PMC5610105 DOI: 10.1016/j.medengphy.2017.08.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2017] [Revised: 07/31/2017] [Accepted: 08/09/2017] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
Thrombus formation is a major adverse event affecting patients implanted with ventricular assist devices (VADs). Despite anti-thrombotic drug administration, thrombotic events remain frequent within the first year post-implantation. Platelet activation (PA) is an essential process underling thrombotic adverse events in VAD systems. Indeed, abnormal shear forces, correlating with specific flow trajectories of VADs, are strong agonists mediating PA. To date, the ability to determine efficacy of anti-platelet (AP) agents under shear stress conditions is limited. Here, we present a novel microfluidic platform designed to replicate shear stress patterns of a clinical VAD, and use it to compare the efficacy of two AP agents in vitro. Gel-filtered platelets were incubated with i) acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and ii) ticagrelor, at two different concentrations (ASA: 125 and 250 µM; ticagrelor: 250 and 500 nM) and were circulated in the VAD-emulating microfluidic platform using a peristaltic pump. GFP was collected after 4 and 52 repetitions of exposure to the VAD shear pattern and tested for shear-mediated PA. ASA significantly inhibited PA only at 2-fold higher concentration (250 µM) than therapeutic dose (125 µM). The effect of ticagrelor was not dependent on drug concentration, and did not show significant inhibition with respect to untreated control. This study demonstrates the potential use of microfluidic platforms as means of testing platelet responsiveness and AP drug efficacy under complex and realistic VAD-like shear stress conditions.
