Aspirin-free strategy for percutaneous coronary intervention in acute coronary syndrome based on the subtypes of acute coronary syndrome and high bleeding risk: the STOPDAPT-3 trial. EUROPEAN HEART JOURNAL. CARDIOVASCULAR PHARMACOTHERAPY 2024; 10:374-390.

Abstract
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.

One-Month Duration Compared with Twelve-Month Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Elective Angioplasty for Coronary Artery Disease: Bleeding and Ischaemic Outcomes. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4521. [PMID: 39124787 PMCID: PMC11312761 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13154521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/30/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Background/Objectives: The need to determine the safest duration of dual antiplatelet therapy duration after elective angioplasty to reduce bleeding events without an adverse effect on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) remains a challenge. Methods: In this investigator-initiated, single-centre cohort study, we identified all patients who underwent PCI for de novo coronary disease for stable angina between January 2015 and November 2019. We compared 1-month and 12-month durations of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to determine if there was any difference in the primary outcome of major bleeding. The secondary outcome was a patient-oriented composite endpoint of all-cause mortality; any myocardial infarction, stroke, or revascularisation; and the individual components of this composite endpoint. Data were analysed using Cox regression models and cumulative hazard plots. Results: A total of 1025 patients were analysed, of which 340 received 1 month of DAPT and 685 received 12 months of DAPT. There was no difference in major bleeding between the two groups (2.6% vs. 2.5% respectively). On univariable cox regression analysis, no characteristics were predictors of major bleeding. A proportion of 99.7% of patients in the 1-month DAPT arm were treated with a DCB strategy, whilst 93% in the 12-month DAPT group were treated with a DES. There was no difference between the two groups with regards to the composite patient-oriented MACE (11% vs. 12%, respectively) or any individual component of this. These results were unchanged after propensity score matched analysis. Conclusions: A 1-month duration of DAPT, for which 99.7% of patients were treated with a DCB strategy, appears safe and effective when compared with a 12-month duration of DAPT with no difference in major bleeding or MACE.

Heart Vessels 2024:10.1007/s00380-024-02428-z. [PMID: 38842586 DOI: 10.1007/s00380-024-02428-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
High bleeding risk (HBR), as defined by the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria, has been recently reported to be associated with an increased risk of major bleeding events and cardiovascular events. We investigated the association between the ARC-HBR score and clinical outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We assessed 328 consecutive patients with stable CAD who underwent PCI between January 2017 and December 2020. We scored the ARC-HBR criteria by assigning 1 point to each major criterion and 0.5 points to each minor criterion. Patients were stratified into low (ARC-HBR score < 1), intermediate (1 ≤ ARC-HBR score < 2), and high (ARC-HBR score ≥ 2) bleeding-risk groups. The primary outcome measure was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and nonfatal stroke. We compared the discriminative abilities of the ARC-HBR score with the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Risk Score for Secondary Prevention (TRS2°P) and ARC-HBR score with Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome Study in Kyoto (CREDO-Kyoto) thrombotic risk score. The mean patient age was 70.1 ± 10.2 years (males, 76.8%). During the median follow-up period of 983 (618-1338) days, 44 patients developed MACE. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that a stepwise significant increase in the cumulative incidence of MACE as the ARC-HBR score increased (log-rank p < 0.001). In the time-dependent receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis for predicting MACE within 2 years, the area under the curve (AUC) of the ARC-HBR score was significantly higher than that of the TRS2°P (AUC: 0.825 vs. 0.725, p value for the difference = 0.023) and similar to that of CREDO-Kyoto thrombotic risk score (AUC: 0.825 vs. 0.813, p value for the difference = 0.627). Conclusions: The ARC-HBR score adequately stratified future risk of MACE in patients with stable CAD who underwent PCI. The ARC-HBR score showed a higher discriminative ability for predicting mid-term MACE than the TRS2°P.

An Aspirin-Free Versus Dual Antiplatelet Strategy for Coronary Stenting: STOPDAPT-3 Randomized Trial. Circulation 2024; 149:585-600. [PMID: 37994553 DOI: 10.1161/circulationaha.123.066720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
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
BACKGROUND Detailed long-term follow-up data on patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) in general, and those with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in particular, are limited. We aimed to appraise the long-term outlook of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with state-of-the-art coronary stents for STEMI, other types of ACS and stable coronary artery disease (CAD), and also explore the potential beneficial impact of new-generation polymer-free drug-eluting stents (DES) in this setting. METHODS Baseline, procedural and very long-term outcome data on patients undergoing PCI and randomized to implantation of new-generation polymer-free vs. durable polymer DES were systematically collected, explicitly distinguishing subjects with admission diagnosis of STEMI, non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTEACS), and stable CAD. Outcomes of interest included death, myocardial infarction, revascularization (i.e. patient-oriented composite endpoints [POCE]), major adverse cardiac events (MACE), and device-oriented composite endpoints (DOCE). RESULTS A total of 3002 patients were included, 1770 (59.0%) with stable CAD, 921 (30.7%) with NSTEACS, and 311 (10.4%) with STEMI. At long-term follow-up (7.5±3.1 years), all clinical events were significantly more common in the NSTEACS group and, to a lesser extent, in the stable CAD group (e.g. POCE occurred in, respectively, 637 [44.7%] vs. 964 [37.9%] vs. 133 [31.5%], P<0.001). While these differences were largely attributable to adverse coexisting features in patients with NSTEACS (e.g. advanced age, insulin-dependent diabetes, and extent of CAD), the unfavorable outlook of patients presenting with NSTEACS persisted even after multivariable adjustment including several prognostically relevant factors (hazard ratio [HR] of NSTEACS vs. stable CAD 1.19 [95% confidence interval 1.03-1.38], P=0.016). Notably, even after encompassing all prognostically impactful features, no difference between polymer-free and permanent polymer drug-eluting stents appeared (HR=0.96 [0.84-1.10], P=0.560). CONCLUSIONS Unstable coronary artery disease, especially when presenting without ST-elevation, represents an informative marker of adverse long-term prognosis in current state-of-the-art invasive cardiology practice. Even considering admission diagnosis, and despite of using no polymer, polymer-free DES showed similar results with regards to safety and efficacy when compared with DES with permanent polymer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy without aspirin immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been tested in East Asian patients, so in this study we aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of reduced dose (3.75 mg/day) prasugrel monotherapy in Japanese patients presenting with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). METHODS AND RESULTS ASET-JAPAN is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm pilot study that completed enrolment of 206 patients from 12 Japanese centers in September 2022. Patients with native de-novo coronary lesions and a SYNTAX score <23 were treated exclusively with biodegradable-polymer platinum-chromium everolimus-eluting stent(s). Patients were loaded with standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and following successful PCI and optimal stent deployment, they received low-dose prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) monotherapy for 3 months. The primary ischemic endpoint was a composite of cardiac death, spontaneous target-vessel myocardial infarction, or definite stent thrombosis. The primary bleeding endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5. At 3-month follow-up, there were no primary bleeding or ischemic events, or any stent thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS This pilot study showed the safety and feasibility of prasugrel monotherapy in selected low-risk Japanese patients with CCS. This "aspirin-free" strategy may be a safe alternative to traditional DAPT following PCI.

Reduced-dose prasugrel monotherapy without aspirin after PCI with the SYNERGY stent in East Asian patients presenting with chronic coronary syndromes or non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes: rationale and design of the ASET Japan pilot study. ASIAINTERVENTION 2023; 9:39-48.

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.

Clopidogrel Monotherapy After 1-Month DAPT in Patients With High Bleeding Risk or Complex PCI. JACC. ASIA 2023; 3:31-46. [PMID: 36873770 PMCID: PMC9982293 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacasi.2022.09.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Background High bleeding risk (HBR) and complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are major determinants for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration. Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of HBR and complex PCI on short vs standard DAPT. Methods Subgroup analyses were conducted on the basis of Academic Research Consortium-defined HBR and complex PCI in the STOPDAPT-2 (Short and Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Verulam's-Eluting Cobalt-Chromium Stent-2) Total Cohort, which randomly compared clopidogrel monotherapy after 1-month DAPT with 12-month DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel after PCI. The primary endpoint was the composite of cardiovascular (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or stroke) or bleeding (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction [TIMI] major or minor) endpoints at 1 year. Results Regardless of HBR (n = 1,893 [31.6%]) and complex PCI (n = 999 [16.7%]), the risk of 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT was not significant for the primary endpoint (HBR, 5.01% vs 5.14%; non-HBR, 1.90% vs 2.02%; P interaction = 0.95) (complex PCI, 3.15% vs 4.07%; noncomplex PCI, 2.78% vs 2.82%; P interaction = 0.48) and for the cardiovascular endpoint (HBR, 4.35% vs 3.52%; and non-HBR, 1.56% vs 1.22%; P interaction = 0.90) (complex PCI, 2.53% vs 2.52%; noncomplex PCI, 2.38% vs 1.86%; P interaction = 0.53), while it was lower for the bleeding endpoint (HBR, 0.66% vs 2.27%; non-HBR, 0.43% vs 0.85%; P interaction = 0.36) (complex PCI, 0.63% vs 1.75%; noncomplex PCI, 0.48% vs 1.22%; P interaction = 0.90). The absolute difference in the bleeding between 1- and 12-month DAPT was numerically greater in patients with HBR than in those without HBR (-1.61% vs -0.42%). Conclusions The effects of 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT were consistent regardless of HBR and complex PCI. The absolute benefit of 1-month DAPT over 12-month DAPT in reducing major bleeding was numerically greater in patients with HBR than in those without HBR. Complex PCI might not be an appropriate determinant for DAPT durations after PCI.

Association between the number of Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome. J Cardiol 2023; 81:553-563. [PMID: 36682715 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria have been used to identify high-risk patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in current clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the number of ARC-HBR criteria and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after an emergent PCI. METHODS We assessed 338 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent successful emergent PCI between January 2017 and December 2020. The ARC-HBR score was calculated by assigning 1 point to each major criterion and 0.5 points to each minor criterion. The patients were classified into low (ARC-HBR score<1), intermediate (1≤ARC-HBR score<2), and high (ARC-HBR score≥2) bleeding risk groups. We investigated the association between the ARC-HBR score and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. We also compared the diagnostic ability of the ARC-HBR score and Controlled Abciximab and Device Investigation to Lower Late Angioplasty Complications (CADILLAC) risk score. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 67.6±12.4years, and 78.4% were men. During the median follow-up of 864 (557-1309) days, 70 patients developed MACEs. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the cumulative incidence of MACE was significantly higher as the ARC-HBR score increased in a stepwise manner (log-rank p<0.001). There were no significant differences in the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for predicting MACE within two years after an emergent PCI between the ARC-HBR and CADILLAC risk scores (AUC: 0.763 vs. 0.777). CONCLUSIONS ARC-HBR score was independently associated with an increased risk of MACE in patients with ACS after an emergent PCI. Moreover, it had a similar diagnostic ability for predicting MACE within two years compared to the CADILLAC risk score.

Serum Albumin and Bleeding Events After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction (from the HAGAKURE-ACS Registry). Am J Cardiol 2022; 165:19-26. [PMID: 34893303 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2021.10.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2021] [Revised: 10/22/2021] [Accepted: 10/29/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Low serum albumin (SA) on admission in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been reported to be associated with adverse cardiovascular events. The relation between low SA and post-AMI bleeding events is presently unknown. We analyzed 1,724 patients with AMI enrolled in the HAGAKURE-ACS registry who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention from January 2014 to December 2018. To assess the influence of low SA at admission, patients were divided into 3 groups according to the albumin tertiles: the low SA group (<3.8 g/100 ml), the middle SA (MSA) group (3.8 to 4.1 g/100 ml), and the normal SA (NSA) group (≥4.2 g/100 ml). The primary end point was the incidence of Global Utilization of Streptokinase and Tissue Plasminogen Activator for Occluded Coronary Arteries moderate/severe bleeding. The cumulative 3-year incidence of the primary end point was significantly higher in the low SA group than in the MSA and NSA groups (30.8% and 11.9% vs 7.7%; p <0.001). In the landmark analysis at 30 days, the cumulative incidences of the primary end point were also significantly higher in the low SA group than in the MSA and NSA groups, both within and beyond 30 days (20.1% and 6.1% vs 3.5%; p <0.001, and 12.4% and 6.2% vs 4.5%; p <0.001, respectively). After adjusting for confounders, the low SA group showed excess risk of bleeding events relative to NSA (hazard ratio 1.56; 95% confidence interval 1.06 to 2.30; p = 0.026), whereas risk of bleeding was neutral in MSA relative to NSA (hazard ratio 0.94; 95% confidence interval 0.63 to 1.34; p = 0.752). In conclusion, low SA at admission was independently associated with higher risk for bleeding events in patients with AMI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
