Frequency and Practice-Level Variation in Inappropriate and Nonrecommended Prasugrel Prescribing Insights From the NCDR PINNACLE Registry
Prasugrel significantly decreased cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke compared with clopidogrel in TRITON-TIMI 38 (Trial to Assess Improvement in Therapeutic Outcomes by Optimizing Platelet Inhibition with Prasugrel—Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 38) (1). However, prasugrel use was associated with increased bleeding in patients with a history of previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and was not associated with benefit in those ≥75 years of age. The prasugrel package insert (2) includes a black box warning for patients with previous stroke/TIA and also recommends against it...

Pre-treatment clinical assessment in head and neck cancer: United Kingdom National Multidisciplinary Guidelines.
Authors: Robson A, Sturman J, Williamson P, Conboy P, Penney S, Wood H Abstract This is the official guideline endorsed by the specialty associations involved in the care of head and neck cancer patients in the UK. This paper provides recommendations on the pre-treatment clinical assessment of patients presenting with head and neck cancer. Recommendations • Comorbidity data should be collected as it is important in the analysis of survival, quality of life and functional outcomes after treatment as well as for comparing results of different treatment regimens and different centres. (R) • Patients with hypertens...

Triple Therapy for Atrial Fibrillation and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention A Contemporary Review
Chronic oral anticoagulant therapy is recommended (class I) in patients with mechanical heart valves and in patients with atrial fibrillation with a CHA2DS2-VASc (Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age ≥75 years, Diabetes mellitus, prior Stroke or transient ischemic attack or thromboembolism, Vascular disease, Age 65 to 74 years, Sex category) score ≥1. When these patients undergo percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting, treatment with aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor also becomes indicated. Before 2014, guidelines recommended the use of triple therapy (vitamin K antagonists, aspirin, and clopidog...

6-month versus 12-month or longer dual antiplatelet therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome (SMART-DATE): a randomised, open-label, non-inferiority trial
Publication date: Available online 12 March 2018 Source:The Lancet Author(s): Joo-Yong Hahn, Young Bin Song, Ju-Hyeon Oh, Deok-Kyu Cho, Jin Bae Lee, Joon-Hyung Doh, Sang-Hyun Kim, Jin-Ok Jeong, Jang-Ho Bae, Byung-Ok Kim, Jang Hyun Cho, Il-Woo Suh, Doo-il Kim, Hoon-Ki Park, Jong-Seon Park, Woong Gil Choi, Wang Soo Lee, Jihoon Kim, Ki Hong Choi, Taek Kyu Park, Joo Myung Lee, Jeong Hoon Yang, Jin-Ho Choi, Seung-Hyuk Choi, Hyeon-Cheol Gwon Background Current guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) of aspirin plus a P2Y12 inhibitor for at least 12 months after implantation of drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients...

Outcomes Among Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, And Ticagrelor In Stemi Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention From The Total Trial
ConclusionsIn this observational analysis of STEMI patients undergoing PPCI, ticagrelor was associated with improved outcomes compared to clopidogrel and prasugrel. An appropriately powered randomized trial is needed to confirm these findings.

Outcomes Among Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, and Ticagrelor in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients Who Underwent Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention From the TOTAL Trial
ConclusionsIn this observational analysis of STEMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention, ticagrelor was associated with improved outcomes compared with clopidogrel and prasugrel. An appropriately powered randomized trial is needed to confirm these findings.RésuméContexteIl n’existe pas d’analyse robuste comparant les inhibiteurs P2Y12 à prise orale (clopidogrel, prasugrel et ticagrélor) chez les patients ayant subi un infarctus du myocarde avec élévation du segment ST (STEMI) traités par une intervention coronaire percutanée (ICP) primaire. Nous avons entrepris d’évaluer les rés...

Efficacy and Safety of Ticagrelor in Diabetes Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Abstract: Dual antiplatelet treatment, consisting of aspirin and P2Y12 inhibitors, is essential for diabetes mellitus (DM) patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This meta-analysis investigated whether ticagrelor, a novel P2Y12 inhibitor, was superior to clopidogrel and prasugrel in efficacy and safety for DM patients undergoing PCI. PubMed, the Cochrane Library and Google Scholar were searched for randomized controlled trials in which ticagrelor was administered. Eligible studies were independently scrutinized to extract data and assess the trials' quality. Statistical analysis was perfo...

Impact of the ABCD-GENE Score on Clopidogrel Clinical Effectiveness after PCI: A Multi-site, Real-world Investigation
The objective of this study was to validate the ability of ABCD-GENE score to predict risk for atherothrombotic events in a diverse, real-world population of clopidogrel-treated PCI patients who received clinical CYP2C19 genotyping to guide antiplatelet therapy. A total of 2341 adult patients who underwent PCI, were genotyped for CYP2C19, and received treatment with clopidogrel across four institutions were included (mean age 64±12 years, 35% female, 20% Black). The primary outcome was major atherothrombotic events, defined as the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, stent thrombosis, or r...

Prominent features of management strategies in acute coronary syndromes with the new oral antiplatelet agents.
Abstract The novel oral P2Y12 inhibitors (prasugrel and ticagrelor) have been incorporated into the recently updated acute coronary syndrome (ACS) guidelines, as an adjunct antiplatelet treatment to aspirin. The studies involving the use of new oral antiplatelet agents that are more potent, predictable and faster platelet inhibitors than clopidogrel have demonstrated superiority with respect to the primary composite endpoint (cardiovascular death, non-lethal myocardial infarction, stroke) for both prasugrel and ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel. The subgroup analysis of the relevant studies showed that these new ...

Dual non-responsiveness to antiplatelet treatment is a stronger predictor of cardiac adverse events than isolated non-responsiveness to clopidogrel or aspirin
Conclusions: Dual low responsiveness to clopidogrel and aspirin is a strong predictor of cardiac adverse events, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus, which underlines the need for personalized antiplatelet treatment.

Incidence and Outcome of High On-Treatment Platelet Reactivity in Patients With Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (from the VIP VerifyNow and Inhibition of Platelet Reactivity Study)
In conclusion, 1/3 of patients with acute coronary syndromes who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting showed high on-treatment RPR on bedside monitoring. They had a worse prognosis, but the level of platelet inhibition was not independently associated with the incidence of ischemic or bleeding events.

Sex‐related differences in outcomes among men and women under 55 years of age with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: Results from the PROMETHEUS Study
Conclusion: Women younger than 55 years of age undergoing ACS PCI have significantly greater comorbidities than young men. Despite a higher risk clinical phenotype in women, prasugrel use was significantly lower in women than men. Female sex was associated with a significantly higher risk of 1‐year MACE and bleeding than men, findings that are attributable to baseline differences. This article is protected by copyright.
