Antiplatelet Strategy for Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. J Am Heart Assoc 2024; 13:e032490. [PMID: 39392170 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.122.032490] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 10/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal duration and choice of antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention remain controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS Digital databases (PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase) were queried to select all randomized controlled trials on a post-percutaneous coronary intervention population with acute coronary syndrome. Dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and clopidogrel for 12 months was compared with 4 major strategies: high-potency, high- to low-potency, low-dose, and short-duration DAPT. A network meta-analysis was performed to compare the safety and efficacy of different antiplatelet strategies. This study was the second updated manuscript under the International Prospective Register of Systematic Review registration (CRD42021286552). Thirty-two randomized controlled trials comprising 103 459 (51 750 experimental, 51 709 control) patients were included. Compared with DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel for 12 months, high- to low-potency DAPT (risk ratio [RR], 0.69 [95% CI, 0.52-0.92]) and aspirin+prasugrel containing DAPT for 12 months (RR, 0.84 [95% CI, 0.72-0.98]) had a significantly lower, whereas DAPT for 1 month followed by clopidogrel only (RR, 1.59 [95% CI, 1.06-2.39]) had a higher, incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events at 1 year (median follow-up). Prasugrel (RR, 1.35 [95% CI, 1.09-1.66]) and ticagrelor (RR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.17-1.62]) containing DAPT for 12 months had significantly higher rates, whereas high- to low-potency DAPT (RR, 0.85 [95% CI, 0.63-1.15]) had no significant risk of major bleeding. CONCLUSIONS Aspirin and ticagrelor for 3 months, followed by aspirin and clopidogrel for the remaining duration, can be considered the optimal strategy for treating post-percutaneous coronary intervention patients with acute coronary syndrome because of a significantly reduced risk of major adverse cardiovascular events without increasing the risk of bleeding.

Abstract
Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) has significantly contributed to reducing the mortality of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) even in cardiogenic shock and is now the standard of care in most of Japanese institutions. The Task Force on Primary PCI of the Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics (CVIT) proposed an expert consensus document for the management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) focusing on procedural aspects of primary PCI in 2018 and updated in 2022. Recently, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) published the guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndrome in 2023. Major new updates in the 2023 ESC guideline include: (1) intravascular imaging should be considered to guide PCI (Class IIa); (2) timing of complete revascularization; (3) antiplatelet therapy in patient with high-bleeding risk. Reflecting rapid advances in the field, the Task Force on Primary PCI of the CVIT group has now proposed an updated expert consensus document for the management of ACS focusing on procedural aspects of primary PCI in 2024 version.

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

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with ticagrelor or adjusted-dose prasugrel has been used for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, few studies have directly compared these two drugs. In this study, we compared the real-world applications and outcomes of these two drugs in patients with ACS who had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This retrospective cohort study was conducted using the data of eligible patients with ACS who had undergone PCI at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital System between June 2019 and December 2021. The primary efficacy-related outcome was the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), and the primary safety-related outcome was major bleeding. Inverse probability of treatment weighting based on propensity score was performed to reduce confounding effects. The study included 2,636 patients; of them, 429 received prasugrel and 2,207 received ticagrelor. No significant between-group difference was observed in the risk of MACE (13.1 vs. 13.1 events per 100 person-years, respectively, hazard ratio (HR): 1.01, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.71-1.43). Both groups exhibited similar rates of major bleeding (3.9 vs. 4.1 events per 100 person-years, respectively, subdistribution HR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.68-1.35). In real-world settings, adjusted-dose prasugrel and ticagrelor exhibit comparable safety and efficacy profiles in East Asian patients with ACS after PCI. Our findings offer valuable insights for future clinical decision making and patient management strategies.

Clinical outcomes of adjusted-dose versus standard-dose prasugrel in East Asian patients with acute myocardial infarction. Int J Cardiol 2024; 410:132197.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The comparative efficacy and safety of adjusted- and standard-dose prasugrel in East Asian patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain unclear. This study aimed to comparatively assess the ischaemic and bleeding outcomes of adjusted-dose (maintenance dose: 3.75 mg) and standard-dose (maintenance dose: 10 mg) prasugrel in East Asian patients with AMI undergoing PCI. METHODS From a combined dataset sourced from nationwide AMI registries in Japan and South Korea (n = 17,118), patients treated with either adjusted- or standard-dose prasugrel were identified. Patients who did not undergo emergent PCI, those on oral anticoagulants, and those meeting the criteria of contraindication of prasugrel in South Korea (age ≥ 75 years, body weight < 60 kg, or history of stroke) were excluded. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) major bleeding events were compared between the adjusted-dose (n = 1160) and standard-dose (n = 1086) prasugrel groups. RESULTS Within the propensity-matched cohort (n = 702 in each group), no significant difference was observed in the in-hospital MACE between the adjusted- and standard-dose prasugrel groups (1.85% vs. 2.71%, odds ratio [OR] 0.68, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.33-1.38, p = 0.286). However, the incidence of in-hospital major bleeding was significantly lower in the adjusted-dose prasugrel group than in the standard-dose group (0.43% vs. 1.71%, OR 0.25, 95% CI 0.07-0.88, p = 0.031). The cumulative 12-month incidence of MACE was equivalent in both groups (4.70% vs. 4.70%, OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.61-1.64, p = 1.000). CONCLUSIONS Among East Asian patients with AMI undergoing PCI, those administered adjusted-dose prasugrel exhibited a lower risk of in-hospital bleeding events than those administered standard-dose prasugrel, while maintaining a comparable 1-year incidence of MACE.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS High bleeding risk (HBR) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) subtypes are critical in determining bleeding and cardiovascular event risk after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS In 4476 ACS patients enrolled in the STOPDAPT-3, where the no-aspirin and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategies after PCI were randomly compared, the pre-specified subgroup analyses were conducted based on HBR/non-HBR and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)/non-ST-segment elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS). The co-primary bleeding endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5, and the co-primary cardiovascular endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischaemic stroke at 1 month. Irrespective of the subgroups, the effect of no-aspirin compared with DAPT was not significant for the bleeding endpoint (HBR [N = 1803]: 7.27 and 7.91%, hazard ratio (HR) 0.91, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.65-1.28; non-HBR [N = 2673]: 3.40 and 3.65%, HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.62-1.39; Pinteraction = 0.94; STEMI [N = 2553]: 6.58 and 6.56%, HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.74-1.35; NSTE-ACS [N = 1923]: 2.94 and 3.64%, HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.49-1.32; Pinteraction = 0.45), and for the cardiovascular endpoint (HBR: 7.87 and 5.75%, HR 1.39, 95% CI 0.97-1.99; non-HBR: 2.56 and 2.67%, HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.60-1.53; Pinteraction = 0.22; STEMI: 6.07 and 5.46%, HR 1.11, 95% CI 0.81-1.54; NSTE-ACS: 3.03 and 1.71%, HR 1.78, 95% CI 0.97-3.27; Pinteraction = 0.18). CONCLUSION In patients with ACS undergoing PCI, the no-aspirin strategy compared with the DAPT strategy failed to reduce major bleeding events irrespective of HBR and ACS subtypes. The numerical excess risk of the no-aspirin strategy relative to the DAPT strategy for cardiovascular events was observed in patients with HBR and in patients with NSTE-ACS.

Abstract
Background One-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in high bleeding risk (HBR) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the Resolute OnyxTM zotarolimus-eluting stents (ZES) is safe and effective. Asian patients have a unique ischemia/bleeding risk profile. Here, we compare the outcomes between Asian and non-Asian patients after PCI and 1-month DAPT. Methods and Results Onyx ONE Clear was a prospective, multicenter study enrolling HBR patients undergoing PCI with the Resolute Onyx ZES (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03647475). Event-free patients after 1-month DAPT transitioned to single antiplatelet therapy. Clinical outcomes between 1 month and 2 years were compared between patients from Asian and non-Asian countries after 1 : 1 propensity score matching accounting for baseline differences. Patients from Asian countries represented 18% (n=273) of the study group (n=1,507). Non-Asian patients had greater clinical complexity; however, these differences were minimal after matching. There were no significant differences in ischemic outcomes between matched cohorts from 1 month to 2 years, including the primary composite endpoint of cardiac death or myocardial infarction (12% vs. 12%; P>0.99). However, there were significantly fewer Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 3-5 bleeding events in the Asian vs. non-Asian cohort (4% vs. 9%; P=0.007), despite similar bleeding risk profiles after matching. Conclusions After propensity score matching, HBR patients from Asian countries undergoing PCI treated with 1-month DAPT had similar ischemic outcomes but fewer bleeding events between 1 month and 2 years compared with patients from non-Asian countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of aspirin-free strategy on bleeding and cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with oral anticoagulation (OAC) have not been fully elucidated. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted the prespecified subgroup analysis based on the use of OAC, including vitamin K antagonist and direct oral anticoagulants, within 7 days before percutaneous coronary intervention in the STOPDAPT-3 (Short and Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy-3) trial, which randomly compared prasugrel monotherapy (2984 patients) to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with prasugrel and aspirin (2982 patients) in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. The coprimary end points were major bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 3 or 5) and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) at 1 month. Among 5966 study patients, there were 530 patients (8.9%) with OAC (no aspirin: N=248, and DAPT: N=282) and 5436 patients (91.1%) without OAC (no aspirin: N=2736, and DAPT: N=2700). Regardless of the use of OAC, the effects of no aspirin compared with DAPT were not significant for the bleeding end point (OAC: 4.45% and 4.27%, hazard ratio [HR], 1.04 [95% CI, 0.46-2.35]; no-OAC: 4.47% and 4.75%, HR, 0.94 [95% CI, 0.73-1.20]; P for interaction=0.82), and for the cardiovascular end point (OAC: 4.84% and 3.20%, HR, 1.53 [95% CI, 0.64-3.62]; no-OAC: 4.06% and 3.74%, HR, 1.09 [95% CI 0.83-1.42]; P for interaction =0.46). CONCLUSIONS The no-aspirin strategy compared with the DAPT strategy failed to reduce major bleeding events irrespective of the use of OAC. There was a numerical excess risk of the no-aspirin strategy relative to the DAPT strategy for cardiovascular events in patients with OAC.

De-escalation of dual antiplatelet therapy for patients with acute coronary syndrome after percutaneous coronary intervention: a systematic review and network meta-analysis. BMJ Evid Based Med 2024; 29:171-186. [PMID: 38242567 DOI: 10.1136/bmjebm-2023-112476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) de-escalation with five alternative DAPT strategies in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). DESIGN We conducted a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA). Parallel-arm randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing DAPT strategies were included and arms of interest were compared via NMA. Partial ranking of each identified arm and for each investigated endpoint was also performed. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Adult patients with ACS (≥18 years) undergoing PCI with indications for DAPT. SEARCH METHODS A comprehensive search covered several databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central, MEDLINE, Conference Proceeding Citation Index-Science) from inception to 15 October 2023. Medical subject headings and keywords related to ACS, PCI and DAPT interventions were used. Reference lists of included studies were screened. Clinical trials registers were searched for ongoing or unpublished trials. INTERVENTIONS Six strategies were assessed: T1 arm: acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and prasugrel for 12 months; T2 arm: ASA and low-dose prasugrel for 12 months; T3 arm: ASA and ticagrelor for 12 months; T4 arm: DAPT de-escalation (ASA+P2Y12 inhibitor for 1-3 months, then single antiplatelet therapy with potent P2Y12 inhibitor or DAPT with clopidogrel); T5 arm: ASA and clopidogrel for 12 months; T6 arm: ASA and clopidogrel for 3-6 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcome: Cardiovascular mortality. SECONDARY OUTCOMES bleeding events (all, major, minor), stent thrombosis (ST), stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). RESULTS 23 RCTs (75 064 patients with ACS) were included. No differences in cardiovascular mortality, all-cause death, recurrent MI or MACE were found when the six strategies were compared, although with different levels of certainty of evidence. ASA and clopidogrel for 12 or 3-6 months may result in a large increase of ST risk versus ASA plus full-dose prasugrel (OR 2.00, 95% CI 1.14 to 3.12, and OR 3.42, 95% CI 1.33 to 7.26, respectively; low certainty evidence for both comparisons). DAPT de-escalation probably results in a reduced risk of all bleedings compared with ASA plus full-dose 12-month prasugrel (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.26 to 0.81, moderate-certainty evidence) and ASA plus 12-month ticagrelor (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.33 to 0.75), while it may not increase the risk of ST. ASA plus 12-month clopidogrel may reduce all bleedings versus ASA plus full-dose 12-month prasugrel (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.42 to 0.94, low certainty) and ASA plus 12-month ticagrelor (OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.89). CONCLUSIONS DAPT de-escalation and ASA-clopidogrel regimens may reduce bleeding events compared with 12 months ASA and potent P2Y12 inhibitors. 3-6 months or 12-month aspirin-clopidogrel may increase ST risk compared with 12-month aspirin plus potent P2Y12 inhibitors, while DAPT de-escalation probably does not.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There was no study evaluating the effects of an aspirin-free strategy in patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). OBJECTIVES The authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an aspirin-free strategy in patients undergoing complex PCI. METHODS We conducted the prespecified subgroup analysis based on complex PCI in the STOPDAPT-3 (ShorT and OPtimal duration of Dual AntiPlatelet Therapy after everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stent-3), which randomly compared low-dose prasugrel (3.75 mg/d) monotherapy to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with low-dose prasugrel and aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. Complex PCI was defined as any of the following 6 criteria: 3 vessels treated, ≥3 stents implanted, ≥3 lesions treated, bifurcation with 2 stents implanted, total stent length >60 mm, or a target of chronic total occlusion. The coprimary endpoints were major bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5) and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) at 1 month. RESULTS Of the 5,966 study patients, there were 1,230 patients (20.6%) with complex PCI. Regardless of complex PCI, the effects of no aspirin relative to DAPT were not significant for the coprimary bleeding (complex PCI: 5.30% vs 3.70%; HR: 1.44; 95% CI: 0.84-2.47; P = 0.18 and noncomplex PCI: 4.26% vs 4.97%; HR: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.65-1.11; P = 0.24; P for interaction = 0.08) and cardiovascular (complex PCI: 5.78% vs 5.93%; HR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.62-1.55; P = 0.92 and noncomplex PCI: 3.70% vs 3.10%; HR: 1.20; 95% CI: 0.88-1.63; P = 0.25; P for interaction = 0.48) endpoints without significant interactions. CONCLUSIONS The effects of the aspirin-free strategy relative to standard DAPT for the cardiovascular and major bleeding events were not different regardless of complex PCI.

Abstract
Low-dose prasugrel demonstrated a similar effectiveness profile to clopidogrel in East Asian ACS patients, but its comparison with another new-generation potent P2Y12 inhibitor, ticagrelor, remains unclear. To compare the effectiveness and safety of low-dose prasugrel against those of standard-dose ticagrelor in East Asian patients with ACS. This retrospective cohort study used Taiwan's National Health and Welfare Database. This study included ACS patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and, at discharge between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2020, were prescribed with low-dose prasugrel plus aspirin or standard-dose ticagrelor plus aspirin. Stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to balance the covariates across these two groups. The primary effectiveness outcome was a composite of acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and cardiovascular death; the secondary effectiveness outcome was each of the individual components of the primary outcome, transient ischemic attack, and repeat revascularization. The primary safety outcome was a composite of intracranial hemorrhage and gastrointestinal bleeding, and the two secondary safety outcomes were intracranial hemorrhage and gastrointestinal bleeding. A total of 24,807 patients were included in this study. Among them, 1,493 were low-dose prasugrel users and 23,314 were standard-dose ticagrelor users. No significant differences were found in primary effectiveness [HR: 0.97 (0.74-1.28)] or primary safety outcomes [HR: 1.22 (0.73-2.01)] between the two study groups. For East Asian patients with ACS, low-dose prasugrel provides comparable effectiveness without increasing bleeding risk compared to standard-dose ticagrelor. Low-dose prasugrel may be an appropriate alternative for East Asian populations.

Potent P2Y12 receptor antagonists have been used widely for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with different results. Benefits from different regimens various between trials. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have restrictive inclusion and exclusion criteria; thus, they may limit the generalizability of the findings to a broader population. This study was aimed to comprehensively investigate the outcomes of potent P2Y12 inhibitors in patients undergoing PCI, including RCTs and real-world evidence (RWE) studies. Multiple electronic databases were systemically reviewed and searched on compared potent P2Y12 inhibitors with clopidogrel. The primary efficacy end point was composite ischemic cardiovascular event and primary safety endpoint was major bleeding. Overall estimates of proportions and incidence rates with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using fixed-effects models. Total 24 studies (140,986 patients) underwent coronary intervention were included in this meta-analysis, including 18 RCTs and 6 large cohort studies with propensity score matching. The potent P2Y12 inhibitors including cangrelor, prasugrel, and ticagrelor, significantly decreased the risk of composite adverse cardiovascular ischemic events (95 % CI 0.89-0.96, p < 0.001), but increased major bleeding (95 % CI 1.15-1.33, p < 0.001) or any bleeding (95 % CI 1.21-1.33, p < 0.001) compared with Clopidogrel. This meta-analysis merges RCTs and RWE studies and comprehensively evidences newer potent P2Y12 inhibitors are significantly more effective than clopidogrel in reduction of composite adverse thrombotic events, but the incidence of major or any bleeding was higher compared with clopidogrel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Recent research indicates a correlation between plasma concentration of P2Y12 inhibitors and clinical events, particularly bleeding, which significantly impeded their clinical therapeutic performance. It is therefore vital to delve into the factors that might affect the plasma concentration. The study aims to summarize population pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PopPKPD) models for commonly prescribed P2Y12 inhibitors (clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor) and assess bleeding risk in specific individual groups. METHODS The PopPKPD models of P2Y12 inhibitors were collected and summarized based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The collected models were replicated in simulations, which were used to assess factors affecting plasma concentrations of P2Y12 inhibitors. Simulation results for special populations were compared to therapeutic window based on reported exposure-effect relationships (PK/PD-related bleeding and thrombotic clinical outcomes) to predict bleeding risk in special populations with different dosing regimens and cumulative covariates. RESULT Finally, 12 studies were included for PK simulation, 7 of which that also included PD data were subjected to further analysis, with the majority being based on Phase I or II trials. Simulations showed that several covariates such as female gender, weight, elderly can significantly impact on exposure, with special populations reaching up to 179% of the general population. However, after dose adjustment, blood concentrations for special populations can reach approximately ±20% of general population exposure. Therefore, lowering the maintenance dose of ticagrelor from 90 to 60 mg bid was first recommended to reduce bleeding risk without significantly increasing ischemic risk, particularly in elderly, small-weight Asian females. CONCLUSION Lowering the maintenance dose of ticagrelor from 90 to 60 mg bid effectively reduces bleeding risk without increasing thrombotic infarction risk in elderly, small-weight Asian females.

Abstract
Background The ASET (Acetyl-Salicylic Elimination Trial) pilot studies recently investigated P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy without aspirin immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Brazil and Japan. Objectives This comparative analysis of the 2 ASET pilot studies aimed to summarize clinical outcomes and assess geographic and ethnic differences in baseline demographics and procedures. Methods Patients undergoing successful platinum-chromium everolimus-eluting stent implantation for chronic coronary syndrome were included. Following the index PCI, patients received prasugrel monotherapy with a maintenance dose of 10 mg/day in Brazil and 3.75 mg/day in Japan. The primary ischemic endpoint was the composite of cardiac death, spontaneous target vessel myocardial infarction, or definite stent thrombosis. The primary bleeding endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 3 and 5 bleeding at up to 3 months. Results Of 409 enrollments, 3-month follow-up was completed in 406 patients. Mean age was 64.3 ± 8.4 years, and 73% were men. Overall, post-TIMI flow grade 3 was achieved in 99.8%. Intravascular imaging for poststent optimization was used in 16.8% and 99.6% of treated lesions in Brazil and Japan, respectively. The primary ischemic and bleeding endpoints occurred in the same patient (0.2%). No stent thrombosis events occurred. Conclusions Prasugrel monotherapy following PCI was safe and feasible in selected low-risk chronic coronary syndrome patients after optimal platinum-chromium everolimus-eluting stent implantation regardless of the ethnic and geographic differences in baseline demographics, procedures, and prasugrel dosage. Randomized controlled trials will be needed to compare P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy without aspirin with the current standard of care.

Abstract
PURPOSE Prasugrel is not approved for patients treated with flow diverters, which have a high metal coverage ratio. However, robust antiplatelet therapy with prasugrel may prevent thromboembolic complications. We administered prasugrel and aspirin to all patients treated with flow diverters and reported the safety of the antiplatelet therapy regimen. METHODS This retrospective, single-center study evaluated the angiographic and clinical data of consecutive patients treated with flow diverters for cerebral unruptured aneurysms between June 2020 and May 2022. All patients received dual antiplatelet therapy, including prasugrel and aspirin. The administration of prasugrel ended 3 or 6 months after the procedure, whereas aspirin use continued for at least 12 months. Periprocedural complications (< 30 days post-procedure) and delayed complications (> 30 days post-procedure) were recorded. RESULTS During the study period, 120 unruptured aneurysms were treated with flow diverters in 110 patients. All patients, except one, survived longer than 12 months after the procedure. The rate of thromboembolic complications was 6.4%, and more than half of the patients had transient symptoms; one (0.9%) had a major ischemic stroke. One patient (0.9%) each had an asymptomatic, small subarachnoid hemorrhage and significant hemorrhagic complications with melena. The rate of permanent neurological deficits was 1.8%, and the mortality rate was 0.9%. CONCLUSIONS Dual antiplatelet therapy comprising routine use of prasugrel and aspirin for flow diverter-implanted patients possibly contributed to a low rate of thromboembolic complications and low risk of hemorrhagic complications.

An Aspirin-Free Versus Dual Antiplatelet Strategy for Coronary Stenting: STOPDAPT-3 Randomized Trial. Circulation 2024; 149:585-600.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bleeding rates on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) within 1 month after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain high in clinical practice, particularly in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. Aspirin-free strategy might result in lower bleeding early after PCI without increasing cardiovascular events, but its efficacy and safety have not yet been proven in randomized trials. METHODS We randomly assigned 6002 patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk just before PCI either to prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) monotherapy or to DAPT with aspirin (81-100 mg/day) and prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) after loading of 20 mg of prasugrel in both groups. The coprimary end points were major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5) for superiority and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) for noninferiority with a relative 50% margin. RESULTS The full analysis set population consisted of 5966 patients (no-aspirin group, 2984 patients; DAPT group, 2982 patients; age, 71.6±11.7 years; men, 76.6%; acute coronary syndrome, 75.0%). Within 7 days before randomization, aspirin alone, aspirin with P2Y12 inhibitor, oral anticoagulants, and intravenous heparin infusion were given in 21.3%, 6.4%, 8.9%, and 24.5%, respectively. Adherence to the protocol-specified antiplatelet therapy was 88% in both groups at 1 month. At 1 month, the no-aspirin group was not superior to the DAPT group for the coprimary bleeding end point (4.47% and 4.71%; hazard ratio, 0.95 [95% CI, 0.75-1.20]; Psuperiority=0.66). The no-aspirin group was noninferior to the DAPT group for the coprimary cardiovascular end point (4.12% and 3.69%; hazard ratio, 1.12 [95% CI, 0.87-1.45]; Pnoninferiority=0.01). There was no difference in net adverse clinical outcomes and each component of coprimary cardiovascular end point. There was an excess of any unplanned coronary revascularization (1.05% and 0.57%; hazard ratio, 1.83 [95%CI, 1.01-3.30]) and subacute definite or probable stent thrombosis (0.58% and 0.17%; hazard ratio, 3.40 [95% CI, 1.26-9.23]) in the no-aspirin group compared with the DAPT group. CONCLUSIONS The aspirin-free strategy using low-dose prasugrel compared with the DAPT strategy failed to attest superiority for major bleeding within 1 month after PCI but was noninferior for cardiovascular events within 1 month after PCI. However, the aspirin-free strategy was associated with a signal suggesting an excess of coronary events. REGISTRATION URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT04609111.

Abstract
PURPOSE East Asian individuals have a lower risk of thromboembolic events while potentially carrying a higher risk of bleeding events compared with non-Asian individuals. The aim of the present analysis was to investigate the effectiveness and safety of the de-escalation of antiplatelet therapy compared with standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in East Asian patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS Randomized controlled trials comparing de-escalation with DAPT in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) were retrieved from electronic databases from their inception until March 2022. Outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), ischemic events, major bleeding, minor bleeding, and any bleeding. Subgroup analyses based on treatment strategy were conducted. Statistical analysis was performed by using Review Manager version 5.4. FINDINGS Eight randomized controlled trials from 539 potentially relevant publications with a total of 15,744 East Asian patients were included. Pooled data from these studies found a significantly lower MACE (0.82; 95% CI, 0.69-0.98) and major bleeding event (0.62; 95% CI, 0.46-0.82) in de-escalation than standard-DAPT without heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis was divided into DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy and a reducing dose of P2Y12 inhibitors. DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy had a 48% lower incidence of major bleeding events than standard DAPT (0.52; 95% CI, 0.27-1.00); there was no significant difference in major bleeding (0.99; 95% CI, 0.55-1.76) between the reducing dose of P2Y12 inhibitors and standard DAPT. IMPLICATIONS De-escalation is a promising and potentially optimal antiplatelet therapy for patients from East Asia with PCI. DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy might be a safer and equally effective approach compared with standard DAPT in East Asian patients with PCI. PROSPERO identifier: CRD42022319983.

Cardiovasc Interv Ther 2024; 39:28-33. [PMID: 37782383 DOI: 10.1007/s12928-023-00963-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
It is believed, but not well established, that renal dysfunction increases the risk of adverse bleeding events associated with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), especially in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The aim of this study is to estimate the impact of renal function on adverse bleeding events associated with DAPT in patients with ACS. A total of 1,264 ACS patients who received DAPT, clopidogrel (n = 530) or prasugrel (n = 734) in addition to aspirin, were assessed in a multicenter observational study. The relationship between renal function and bleeding event, defined as BARC 3 or 5, was determined using a marginal effect from the logit model and Royston-Parmar model. During an average 313.1 days of the observation period, defined as the duration of DAPT after admission until the implementation of a change in the regimen, bleeding events were observed in 7.4% of patients (n = 94). The estimated curves demonstrated that the probability of bleeding was positive correlated with renal dysfunction (6.0 to 8.6), regardless of the DAPT regimen used. This probability was consistently higher in clopidogrel (7.4 to 10.5) than in prasugrel (4.8 to 0.7). This trend was also shown in maintenance hemodialysis patients (6.7 vs. 10.3). Estimated cumulative incidences among individual stages of renal function were drawn. In conclusion, bleeding events increased with worsening renal function, and prasugrel is safer than clopidogrel as a component of DAPT throughout all levels of renal function, including hemodialysis patients after ACS.

J Cardiol Cases 2023; 28:265-268. [PMID: 38126046 PMCID: PMC10730278 DOI: 10.1016/j.jccase.2023.08.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
A 63-year-old man with a hobby of full marathon and triathlon fainted while commuting on a 25-km one-way bicycle trip and was admitted to the hospital after return of spontaneous circulation. The patient was diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography for trauma diagnosis indicated suspicion of liver injury. Although coronary angiography revealed a severe stenotic lesion in the left anterior descending artery, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was deferred because of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction grade 3 flow. Following neurological recovery, the patient was started on dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin and clopidogrel). On day 11, a 3.0/34-mm Resolute Onyx stent (Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland) was deployed following rotablation. As a pre-discharge evaluation, a maximum-load cardiopulmonary exercise test was performed 8 days after PCI. However, the patient developed stent thrombosis after 2 h. Subsequently, the patient was diagnosed as a clopidogrel poor metabolizer using a blood test. Learning objective Existing guidelines recommend a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) before or immediately after the discharge of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, the safety of the maximum-load CPET has not been established, especially in clopidogrel poor metabolizers with ACS. Acute maximal exercise induces platelet aggregation; therefore, further discussion is needed regarding the timing of CPET, exercise load level, and patient observation post-CPET in ACS patients after stent placement.

Case Rep Vasc Med 2023; 2023:6730220. [PMID: 38034082 PMCID: PMC10684329 DOI: 10.1155/2023/6730220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Previous reports have revealed various endovascular intervention techniques for prosthetic femoropopliteal bypass occlusion (PFPBO); however, treatment for PFPBO remains challenging for most interventionalists and vascular surgeons because the procedure is complicated. Most of the reported techniques involve device implantation. In the present study, we performed a combination of surgical graft thrombectomy and drug-coated balloon angioplasty for PFPBO without implanting any additional devices. Furthermore, we determined the favorable long-term results of this treatment using follow-up angiography. Case Presentation. A 77-year-old man with a history of chronic kidney disease and coronary artery disease presented to our clinic with rest pain on his left leg. Seven years prior to the current consult, he underwent femoropopliteal bypass (FPB) surgery using a prosthetic graft due to in-stent occlusion of the left superficial femoral artery (SFA). Four years after surgery, a duplex ultrasound scan revealed stenosis of the proximal anastomosis site; hence, medical therapy was continued. On the current consult, diagnostic angiography revealed occlusion of the FPB and infrapopliteal vessels. In the first attempt at recanalization, the guidewire was unable to pass through the occluded SFA. Therefore, another technique was performed to revascularize the FPBO and infrapopliteal vessels. We obtained an angiography of the left leg after inserting the guiding sheath via the right common femoral artery (CFA). First, surgical thrombectomy using a Fogarty catheter via the exposed left CFA was performed. Following endovascular therapy via the right CFA, we performed drug-coated balloon angioplasty for anastomotic stenosis and recanalized occlusive infrapopliteal vessels. Restenosis was not observed on follow-up angiograms. On further follow-up angiography, there was notable regression of the residual stenosis at the proximal anastomosis of the prosthetic graft. Conclusion This novel revascularization strategy may be a viable treatment option for PFPBO.

Age- and Sex-Specific Disparities in Outcomes After Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in East Asian Patients. Am J Cardiol 2023; 207:237-244. [PMID: 37757520 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.08.124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
It is unknown whether there are age- and gender-related differences in the safety and efficacy of potent P2Y12 inhibitors in East Asian populations with a different bleeding or ischemic propensity. Using data from the TICAKOREA (Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in Asian/Korean Patients with ACS Intended for Invasive Management) trial comparing ticagrelor versus clopidogrel for 800 Korean patients with acute coronary syndrome, the safety and efficacy outcomes were compared according to age (<75 vs ≥75 years) and gender (men vs women). The primary bleeding end point was clinically significant bleeding, and the primary ischemic end point was a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) at 12 months. The incidences of clinically significant bleeding were significantly higher after ticagrelor than after clopidogrel in patients aged <75 years (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 2.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.40 to 4.67) but not in patients aged ≥75 years (adjusted HR 1.1, 95% CI 0.40 to 3.38). The incidences of MACEs were significantly higher after ticagrelor than after clopidogrel in patients aged ≥75 years (adjusted HR 6.14, 95% CI 1.40 to 26.90) but not in patients aged <75 years (adjusted HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.50 to 1.73). The incidences of clinically significant bleeding were significantly higher after ticagrelor than after clopidogrel in men (adjusted HR 2.69, 95% CI 1.38 to 5.24) but not in women (adjusted HR 1.49, 95% CI 0.64 to 3.46). The adjusted risks of MACEs after ticagrelor or clopidogrel were not significantly different between men and women. In conclusion, there were substantial age- and gender-related differences in bleeding and ischemic outcomes after ticagrelor or clopidogrel in Korean patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiplatelet therapy, where regimens are tailored based on platelet function testing, has been introduced into neurointerventional surgery. This nationwide registry study evaluated the effect and safety of tailored antiplatelet therapy in stent assisted coiling for unruptured aneurysms compared with conventional therapy using a standard regimen. METHODS This study enrolled 1686 patients in 44 participating centers who received stent assisted coiling for unruptured aneurysms between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019. The standard regimen (aspirin and clopidogrel) was used for all patients in the conventional group (924, 19 centers). The regimen was selected based on platelet function testing (standard regimen for clopidogrel responders; adding cilostazol or replacing clopidogrel with other thienopyridines (ticlopidine, prasugrel, or ticagrelor) for clopidogrel non-responders) in the tailored group (762, 25 centers). The primary outcome was thromboembolic events. Secondary outcomes were bleeding and poor outcomes (increase in modified Rankin Scale score). Outcomes within 30 days after coiling were compared using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The thromboembolic event rate was lower in the tailored group than in the conventional group (30/762 (3.9%) vs 63/924 (6.8%), adjusted OR 0.560, 95% CI 0.359 to 0.875, P=0.001). The bleeding event rate was not different between the study groups (62/762 (8.1%) vs 73/924 (7.9%), adjusted OR 0.790, 95% CI 0.469 to 1.331, P=0.376). Poor outcomes were less frequent in the tailored group (12/762 (1.6%) vs 34 (3.7%), adjusted OR 0.252, 95% CI 0.112 to 0.568, P=0.001). CONCLUSION Tailored antiplatelet therapy in stent assisted coiling for unruptured aneurysms reduced thromboembolic events and poor outcomes without increasing bleeding.

Net clinical benefit of dual antiplatelet therapy in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2023; 102:788-802.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contemporary dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategies, such as short-term DAPT or de-escalation of DAPT, have emerged as attractive strategies to treat patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, it remains uncertain whether they are suitable for elderly patients. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases were searched in September 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating DAPT strategies, including standard (12 months), short-term, uniform de-escalation, and guided-selection strategies for elderly patients with ACS (age ≥ 65 years) were identified, and a network meta-analysis was conducted. The primary endpoint was the net clinical benefit outcome, a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs: cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke) and clinically relevant bleeding (equivalent to bleeding of at least type 2 according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium). The secondary outcomes were MACE and major bleeding. RESULTS Sixteen RCTs with a combined total of 47,911 patients were included. The uniform de-escalation strategy was associated with an improved net clinical benefit compared with DAPT using potent P2Y12 inhibitors. The short-term DAPT strategy was associated with reduced risks of the primary outcome and major bleeding compared with DAPT using potent P2Y12 inhibitors, however, it was ranked as the least effective strategy for MACE compared with other DAPT strategies. CONCLUSIONS Uniform de-escalation and short-term DAPT strategies may be advantageous for elderly patients, but need to be tailored based on individual bleeding and ischemic risks. Further RCTs of contemporary DAPT strategies specifically designed for elderly patients are warranted to confirm the findings of the present study.

Strategy of dual antiplatelet therapy for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes: A systematic review and network meta-analysis. Int J Cardiol 2023; 389:131157.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various durations and de-escalation strategies of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) have been tested in randomized controlled trials (RCT)s. However, evidence by specific ACS subtype is unknown. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched in February 2023. RCTs on DAPT strategies included STEMI or NSTE-ACS patients with standard DAPT (12 months) with clopidogrel or potent P2Y12 inhibitors, short-term DAPT (≤6 months) followed by potent P2Y12 inhibitors or aspirin, unguided de-escalation from potent P2Y12 inhibitors to low-dose potent P2Y12 inhibitors or clopidogrel at one month, and guided selection with genotype or platelet function tests were identified. The primary outcome was the net adverse clinical events (NACE) defined as a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and clinically relevant bleeding events. RESULTS Twenty RCTs with a combined total population of 24,745 STEMI and 37,891 NSTE-ACS patients were included. In STEMI patients, unguided de-escalation strategy was associated with a lower rate of NACE compared with standard DAPT using potent P2Y12 inhibitors (HR:0.57; 95% CI:0.34-0.96) without increased risk of MACE. In NSTE-ACS patients, unguided de-escalation strategy was associated with a lower rate of NACE compared with the guided selection strategy (HR:0.65; 95% CI:0.47-0.90), standard DAPT using potent P2Y12 inhibitors (HR:0.62; 95% CI:0.50-0.78) and standard DAPT using clopidogrel (HR:0.73; 95% CI:0.55-0.98) without increased risk of MACE. CONCLUSION Unguided de-escalation strategy was associated with a reduced risk of NACE and may be the most effective DAPT strategy for STEMI and NSTE-ACS.

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

Short-Term DAPT and DAPT De-Escalation Strategies for Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. Circ Cardiovasc Interv 2023; 16:e013242. [PMID: 37609850 DOI: 10.1161/circinterventions.123.013242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Short-term (≤6 months) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and DAPT de-escalation become attractive for patients with acute coronary syndrome. METHODS A systemic search identified randomized controlled trials that included patients with acute coronary syndrome treated using (1) standard DAPT (12 months) with clopidogrel, prasugrel (standard/low dose), or ticagrelor; (2) extended DAPT (≥18 months); (3) short-term DAPT (≤6 months) followed by P2Y12 inhibitor or aspirin; (4) 12-month DAPT with unguided de-escalation from potent P2Y12 inhibitors to low-dose potent P2Y12 inhibitor or clopidogrel at 1 month; and (5) guided selection DAPT with genotype or platelet function tests. The primary efficacy outcome (major adverse cardiovascular events) was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. The primary safety outcome was major or minor bleeding. RESULTS This meta-analysis included 32 randomized controlled trials with 103 497 patients. While there were no differences in efficacy between short, unguided de-escalation and guided selection strategies, unguided de-escalation was associated with reduced risk of major adverse cardiovascular events compared with standard DAPT with clopidogrel or ticagrelor (hazard ratio [95% CI], 0.67 [0.49-0.93] and 0.68 [0.50-0.93]). Both short DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor and unguided de-escalation were associated with reduced risks in safety compared with other strategies, including guided selection (hazard ratio [95% CI], 0.66 [0.47-0.93] and 0.48 [0.33-0.71]). Short DAPT followed by a P2Y12 inhibitor was associated with reduced risk of major bleeding and all-cause death compared with standard, extended DAPT (eg, versus DAPT with clopidogrel; hazard ratio [95% CI], 0.64 [0.42-0.97] and 0.60 [0.44-0.82]). By rankogram, unguided de-escalation strategy was the safest and most effective strategy in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events and major or minor bleeding while short DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor was ranked the best for major bleeding and all-cause death. CONCLUSIONS In patients with acute coronary syndrome, unguided de-escalation was associated with the lowest risk of major adverse cardiovascular events and major or minor bleeding outcomes, while short DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor was associated with the lowest risk of major bleeding and all-cause death.

Expert Rev Med Devices 2023; 20:1235-1242.

Abstract
BACKGROUND More than 20 years have passed since the first company introduced drug-eluting stent (DES) in 2002, but competing companies still have improved their DESs under regulatory approval. This study aimed to investigate the criteria for interventional cardiologists performing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in selecting a DES. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS From 10 April 2023, to 30 April 2023, 3,422 cardiologists were requested to complete a questionnaire, of whom 126 responded to the survey. RESULTS Overall, 86.5% of the respondents used Xience cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (Xience) in > 10% of PCI procedures. For Xience, brand loyalty and calcified lesions were important independent variables for the DES selection criteria. Ultimaster sirolimus-eluting stent (Ultimaster) was not affected by the clinical data delivered by the company, whereas the respondents were shown to seek support for their activities from the Ultimaster supplier. The relationship with the company and/or sales representative and the planned surgical procedure affected the use of Coroflex ISAR NEO sirolimus-eluting polymer-free stent. CONCLUSIONS Patient background and lesion characteristics had little impact on the DES selection criteria, suggesting that DES performance has already reached its physical limitations to the extent that respondents may not value further improvements in performance or characteristics of DES.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bivalirudin, a bivalent direct thrombin inhibitor, has been developed to reduce bleeding without any trade-off in thrombotic events in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). AREAS COVERED Despite showing a superior safety profile compared with unfractionated heparin (UFH), bivalirudin is not considered the anticoagulant of choice in ACS patients undergoing PCI, mainly because of an increased rate of acute stent thrombosis (ST) shown by several randomized controlled trials (RCTs), in addition to limited availability in certain countries and increased costs. However, RCTs on bivalirudin have been characterized by several confounding factors hindering the interpretation of its safety and efficacy compared with UFH among the spectrum of ACS patients. Furthermore, a significant body of evidence has demonstrated that the risk of acute ST can be mitigated by a full-dose infusion regimen following PCI, without compromising the favorable safety profile compared to UFH. EXPERT OPINION In light of the increased understanding of the prognostic relevance of bleeding events and the excellent safety profile of bivalirudin, recent trial evidence may allow for this anticoagulant agent to reemerge and have a more prominent role in the management of ACS patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is not known whether clopidogrel use in cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) carriers with high bleeding risk (HBR) contributes to adverse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS This retrospective observational study included 618 consecutive patients with available CYP2C19 polymorphism information who underwent PCI between September 2014 and August 2021. Patients with HBR (319 [52%] met the Academic Research Consortium definition) were divided into 2 groups according to P2Y12inhibitor action, namely decreased (i.e., clopidogrel in CYP2C19 LOF carriers) and retained (i.e., clopidogrel in CYP2C19 LOF non-carriers or prasugrel regardless of CYP2C19 polymorphisms), and clinical outcomes at 1 year were compared using inverse probability-weighted Cox proportional hazard regression. The primary ischemic outcome (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke) was significantly higher in the decreased than retained group (10.2% vs. 3.0%; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 2.78; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.40-5.52; P=0.004). The primary bleeding outcome (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5) did not differ significantly between the decreased and retained groups (3.4% vs. 6.9%, respectively; aHR 0.48; 95% CI 0.22-1.01; P=0.054). There were no interactions between the treatment groups and HBR status in primary ischemic and bleeding outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with HBR, clopidogrel use in CYP2C19 LOF carriers was significantly associated with increased ischemic events after PCI.

Abstract
Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) vaporizes plaques and thrombi, provides better microcirculation, and reduces peripheral embolism when treating acute coronary syndrome. Studies on the efficacy of ELCA for long onset-to-balloon time ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are limited. Thus, we aimed to examine the efficacy of ELCA for STEMI using the onset-to-balloon time (OBT). A total of 319 patients with STEMI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention from 2009 to 2012 and from 2015 to 2019 were enrolled. Patients who underwent PCI in 2009-2012 were considered the conventional group, and those treated with ELCA in 2015-2019 were considered the ELCA group. Patients were stratified by OBT. The endpoints were the final thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade, myocardial blush grade (MBG), and slow-flow or no-reflow phenomenon during the procedure. The ELCA group had 167 patients, and the conventional group had 123. There was no significant difference in achieving final TIMI 3 between the groups. The acquisition rate of final MBG 3 was significantly higher in the ELCA than in the conventional group (79.6% vs. 65.9%; P = 0.01). There was a significant difference between the groups with OBT 12-72 h (82.1% vs. 56.0%; P = 0.031). The slow- or no-reflow incidence during the procedure was significantly lower in the ELCA than in the conventional group with OBT 12-72 h (17.8% vs. 52.2%; P = 0.019). ELCA improves the MBG and reduces intraoperative slow- or no-reflow phenomenon in patients with STEMI, 12-72 h after onset. ELCA will be useful in preventing peripheral embolism in patients with long onset-to-balloon time STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS), prasugrel was recommended over ticagrelor in a recent randomized controlled trial, although more data are needed on the rationale. Here, the effects of P2Y12 inhibitors on ischemic and bleeding events in patients with NSTE-ACS were investigated. METHODS Clinical trials that enrolled patients with NSTE-ACS were included, relevant data were extracted, and a network meta-analysis was performed. RESULTS This study included 37,268 patients with NSTE-ACS from 11 studies. There was no significant difference between prasugrel and ticagrelor for any end point, although prasugrel had a higher likelihood of event reduction than ticagrelor for all end points except cardiovascular death. Compared with clopidogrel, prasugrel was associated with decreased risks of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (hazard ratio [HR], 0.84; 95% CI, 0.71-0.99) and myocardial infarction (HR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.68-0.99) but not an increased risk of major bleeding (HR, 1.30; 95% CI, 0.97-1.74). Similarly, compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor was associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular death (HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.66-0.94) and an increased risk of major bleeding (HR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.00-1.77; P = .049). For the primary efficacy end point (MACE), prasugrel showed the highest likelihood of event reduction (P = .97) and was superior to ticagrelor (P = .29) and clopidogrel (P = .24). CONCLUSION Prasugrel and ticagrelor had comparable risks for every end point, although prasugrel had the highest probability of being the best treatment for reducing the primary efficacy end point. This study highlights the need for further studies to investigate optimal P2Y12 inhibitor selection in patients with NSTE-ACS.

Abstract
Background Percutaneous coronary intervention using a drug-eluting stent (DES) is a common therapeutic option for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, stent-associated complications, such as bleeding associated with dual antiplatelet therapy, in-stent restenosis, stent thrombosis, and neoatherosclerosis, remain. Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) are expected to reduce stent-associated complications. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of DCB therapy and compare it with that of DES therapy in patients with ACS. Materials and Methods In this single-center, retrospective, observational study, we examined all patients with ACS treated with DCB or DES between July 2014 and November 2020. Patients with left main trunk lesions were excluded. The primary outcome was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE: cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization) at one year. Results Three hundred and seventy-two patients were treated with DES, and 83 patients were treated with DCB. MACE occurred in 10 (12.0%) patients in the DCB group and in 50 (13.4%) patients in the DES group (P=0.73). Conclusions DCB is a valuable and effective therapy for patients with ACS. Moreover, DCB may become an alternative therapy for DES in patients with ACS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guideline-recommended dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT; aspirin plus prasugrel/ticagrelor) for 12 months in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients increases bleeding, with East Asians (EAs) exhibiting higher bleeding and lower ischemic risk, compared with non-East Asians (nEAs). We sought to compare DAPT "de-escalation" strategies in EA and nEA populations. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials assessing reduction of DAPT intensity or duration in ACS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, in EA and nEA, was performed using a random-effects model. RESULTS Twenty-three trials assessed reduction of DAPT intensity (n = 12) or duration (n = 11). Overall, reduced DAPT intensity attenuated major bleeding (odds ratio [OR]: 0.78, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.65-0.94, p = 0.009), without impacting net adverse cardiovascular events (NACE) or major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). In nEA, this increased MACE (OR: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.09-1.31, p < 0.0001) without impacting NACE or bleeding; while in EA, it reduced major bleeding (OR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.53-0.95, p = 0.02) without affecting NACE or MACE. Overall, abbreviation of DAPT duration reduced NACE (OR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.82-0.99, p = 0.03) due to major bleeding (OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.53-0.99, p = 0.006), without impacting MACE. In nEA, this strategy did not impact NACE, MACE, or major bleeding; while in EA, it reduced major bleeding (OR: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.4-0.91, p = 0.02) without impacting NACE or MACE. CONCLUSION In EA, reduction of DAPT intensity or duration can minimize bleeding, without safety concerns. In nEA, reduction of DAPT intensity may incur an ischemic penalty, while DAPT abbreviation has no overall benefit.

Comparison of Prasugrel and Clopidogrel in Thrombotic Stroke Patients with Risk Factors for Ischemic Stroke Recurrence: An Integrated Analysis of PRASTRO-I, PRASTRO-II, and PRASTRO-III. Cerebrovasc Dis 2023; 52:720-729.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with stroke are at a high risk of recurrence, and although they receive antiplatelet therapies such as clopidogrel for secondary prevention of non-cardioembolic stroke, the recurrence rate remains high. Three phase 3 trials (PRASTRO-I/II/III) were conducted to determine the efficacy of prasugrel in preventing recurrent stroke. Here, we performed an integrated analysis of these studies to confirm the generalizability of the PRASTRO-III findings and to supplement the small sample size of the study. METHODS Patients from PRASTRO-I, PRASTRO-II, and PRASTRO-III with ischemic stroke (large-artery atherosclerosis or small-artery occlusion) and at least one of the following were included: hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, or ischemic stroke history. The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite incidence of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and death from other vascular causes in the intention-to-treat population. Bleeding events (life-threatening bleeding, major bleeding, and clinically relevant bleeding) were evaluated as the primary safety endpoint. Cumulative incidences and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for the study outcomes using the Kaplan-Meier method. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were calculated using the Cox regression model. RESULTS The data of 2,184, 274, and 230 patients from PRASTRO-I, PRASTRO-II, and PRASTRO-III, respectively, were analyzed (N = 2,688; prasugrel, N = 1,337; clopidogrel, N = 1,351). Stroke at enrollment was classified as large-artery atherosclerosis in 49.3% of patients and small-artery occlusion in 50.7% of patients. The primary efficacy endpoint composite incidence (prasugrel vs. clopidogrel) was 3.4% versus 4.3% (HR: 0.771, 95% CI: 0.522-1.138). The incidence of each component of the primary efficacy endpoint for prasugrel versus clopidogrel was 3.1% (n = 41) versus 4.1% (n = 55) for ischemic stroke, 0.3% (n = 4) versus 0.2% (n = 3) for MI, and no events of death from other vascular causes. For the primary safety endpoint, bleeding events were reported in 6.0% of patients in the prasugrel group versus 5.5% of patients in the clopidogrel group (HR: 1.074, 95% CI: 0.783-1.473). CONCLUSIONS This integrated analysis supports the findings of PRASTRO-III. Prasugrel is a promising treatment that results in a numerical reduction in the composite incidence of ischemic stroke, MI, and death from other vascular causes in patients with ischemic stroke who are at a high risk of stroke recurrence. No major safety issues were observed for prasugrel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The usefulness of the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria in the selection of P2Y12 receptor inhibitors for acute coronary syndrome is unknown. This study investigated whether the selection of antiplatelet agents according to the ARC-HBR criteria could improve clinical outcomes. METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included 1261 patients with acute coronary syndrome who received dual antiplatelet therapy, namely clopidogrel (75 mg, n = 529) or prasugrel (3.75 mg, n = 732) in addition to aspirin. The primary endpoint was net adverse clinical events (NACE) after hospital admission, including ischemic (death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke) and bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5). Secondary outcomes were ischemic and bleeding events. For each patient, the observation period was defined as the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy after admission. RESULTS During the observation period (average: 313 days), the rate of NACE was lower in the prasugrel group than the clopidogrel group (20.6% vs. 12.6%, respectively, P < 0.01). In patients who satisfied or did not satisfy the ARC-HBR criteria, prasugrel was associated with a 3.7% and 2.1% lower incidence of NACE, respectively, versus clopidogrel. Ischemic and bleeding events were less frequent in the prasugrel group than the clopidogrel group (11.5% vs. 7.9%, respectively, P = 0.03; 10.6% vs. 5.2%, respectively, P < 0.01). The estimated incidence models for NACE suggested that the difference between clopidogrel and prasugrel was greater in patients who satisfied the ARC-HBR criteria than in those who did not. CONCLUSIONS Prasugrel is preferable to clopidogrel regardless of the ARC-HBR.

Abstract
The Acetyl Salicylic Elimination Trial (ASET) Japan pilot study is a multicentre, single-arm, open-label, proof-of-concept study with a stopping rule based on the occurrence of definite stent thrombosis. This study aims to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of low-dose prasugrel monotherapy following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Japanese patients presenting with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) or non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS). Four hundred patients with a SYNTAX score <23 requiring PCI due to CCS or NSTE-ACS will be screened and considered eligible for the study. The enrolment is planned in two phases: 1) 200 patients presenting with CCS, followed by 2) 200 patients presenting with NSTE-ACS. After optimal PCI with implantation of a SYNERGY (Boston Scientific) stent, patients will be enrolled and loaded with prasugrel 20 mg, followed by a maintenance dose of prasugrel 3.75 mg once daily without aspirin continued for 3 months in Phase 1 (CCS patients), and for 12 months in Phase 2 (NSTE-ACS patients). After these follow-up periods, prasugrel will be replaced by standard antiplatelet therapy according to local practice. The primary endpoint is a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or definite stent thrombosis after the index procedure. The primary bleeding endpoint is any Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 3 or 5 bleeding occurring within 3 months of the index PCI for CCS patients, or 12 months for NSTE-ACS patients. The ASET Japan study is designed to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of reduced-dose prasugrel monotherapy after PCI in East Asian patients with acute and chronic coronary syndromes.

Abstract
AIM To examine the efficacy and safety of prasugrel vs clopidogrel in thrombotic stroke patients at risk of ischemic stroke. METHODS This multicenter, active-controlled, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study enrolled thrombotic stroke patients aged ≥ 50 years at risk of ischemic stroke. Patients received prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) or clopidogrel (75 or 50 mg/day) for 24-48 weeks; other antiplatelet drugs were prohibited. The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite incidence of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and death from other vascular causes from the start to 1 day after treatment completion or discontinuation. Secondary efficacy endpoints included the incidences of ischemic stroke, MI, death from other vascular causes, ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack, and stroke. Safety endpoints included bleeding events and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS In the prasugrel (N=118) and clopidogrel (N=112; all received 75 mg) groups, the primary efficacy endpoint composite incidence (95% confidence interval) was 6.8% (3.0%-12.9%) and 7.1% (3.1%-13.6%), respectively. The risk ratio (prasugrel/clopidogrel) was 0.949 (0.369-2.443). Secondary efficacy endpoints followed a similar trend. The combined incidences of life-threatening, major, and clinically relevant bleeding were 5.0% and 3.5% in the prasugrel and clopidogrel groups, respectively. The incidences of all bleeding events and AEs were 19.2% and 24.6% and 76.7% and 82.5% in the prasugrel and clopidogrel groups, respectively. No serious AEs were causally related to prasugrel. CONCLUSIONS We observed a risk reduction of 5% with prasugrel vs clopidogrel, indicating comparable efficacy. There were no major safety issues for prasugrel.

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

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and the oral P2Y12 inhibitor clopidogrel as the cornerstone of treatment for patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was firstly established in 2001. Soon thereafter, the newer-generation P2Y12 inhibitors prasugrel and ticagrelor became commercially available. The clinical management of ACS patients undergoing PCI has evolved significantly in the last 2 decades, with a shift toward more rapid invasive management, broader use of drug-eluting stents, and the increasing recognition that major bleeding due to antiplatelet therapy is detrimental. In this ever-changing scenario, numerous studies have addressed 4 main questions regarding P2Y12 inhibition in ACS patients undergoing PCI: timing, selection, modulation, and duration. This paper reviews the latest evidence surrounding these topical questions, with a focus on efficacy and safety data, practice guidelines, and residual areas of uncertainty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still unknown whether diabetes mellitus (DM) affects the relative safety and efficacy of ticagrelor vs clopidogrel in East Asian patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). OBJECTIVES The authors sought to assess the safety and efficacy of ticagrelor vs clopidogrel according to the diabetic status of East Asian patients with ACS undergoing invasive management. METHODS This prespecified analysis of the TICA KOREA (Clinically Significant Bleeding With Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in Korean Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes Intended for Invasive Management) trial included 800 Korean patients. The primary safety endpoint was clinically significant bleeding (PLATO [Platelet Inhibition and Clinical Outcomes] major or minor bleeding) at 12 months; the efficacy endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke). RESULTS Of 800 patients, 216 (27.0%) had DM. The incidence of clinically significant bleeding within 12 months was significantly higher with ticagrelor than clopidogrel in the nondiabetic group (10.2% vs 4.3%; HR: 2.45; 95% CI: 1.27-4.70; P = 0.007) and tended to be higher in the diabetic group (13.8% vs 8.0%; HR: 1.87; 95% CI: 0.54-4.36; P = 0.15); there was no significant interaction between treatment-arm and DM (P for interaction = 0.64). The incidences of major adverse cardiovascular events were not significantly different after ticagrelor or clopidogrel both in the diabetic group (10.8% vs 6.0%; HR: 1.90; 95% CI: 0.71-5.07; P = 0.20) and in the nondiabetic group (8.5% vs 5.7%; HR: 1.51; 95% CI: 0.81-2.81; P = 0.19) without significant interaction (P-for-interaction = 0.71). CONCLUSIONS In Korean ACS patients undergoing early invasive management, diabetes status did not affect the relative safety and efficacy of ticagrelor and clopidogrel.

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.

J Atheroscler Thromb 2022; 29:1409-1420.

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is a therapeutic cornerstone to prevent stent thrombosis following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the longer the DAPT duration, the higher the incidence of bleeding and mortality. Since the advent of second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES), the continuous evolution of DES has reduced the thrombotic risk and allowed for a shorter DAPT duration. On the other hand, concerns on the elevated risk of bleeding during antithrombotic therapy have been further raised due to the growing number of elderly CAD patients with multiple comorbidities. The consequent debate topic over post-PCI antithrombotic therapy has shifted from simply reducing thrombotic risk to safely minimizing bleeding risk. Due to the significant impact of bleeding on clinical outcomes, including prognosis, current guidelines on antithrombotic therapy for CAD prioritize stratification of patients at a high bleeding risk (HBR) as the top consideration in determining post-PCI antithrombotic therapy. Achieving optimal antithrombotic therapy for each patient undergoing PCI requires a better understanding of the clinical variables constituting the balance of bleeding and thrombotic risk. This review highlights relevant evidence required to optimize antithrombotic therapy for HBR patients undergoing PCI.
