The dawn of aspirin free strategy after short term dual antiplatelet for percutaneous coronary intervention: meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
AbstractThere is still a debate about the safety and efficacy of an aspirin free strategy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Hence, we performed a meta-analysis comparing aspirin free strategy to dual antiplatlets therapy (DAPT). Randomized trials (RCTs) comparing aspirin free strategy to DAPT in patients who received PCI were included. The primary outcome of interest was bleeding, defined per the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC). Secondary outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACE); defined as all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction or stroke, the individua...

Short-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by P2Y12 monotherapy versus traditional DAPT in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: meta-analysis and viewpoint
AbstractThe optimal duration dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is subject to debate. A short-duration DAPT (one month to three months) followed by P2Y12 monotherapy instead of standard 6 to 12 months DAPT followed by aspirin monotherapy after PCI has been suggested. We meta-analyzed studies comparing short-term ( ≤ 3 months) DAPT followed by P2Y12 monotherapy versus standard DAPT in patients after PCI. In total, 2304 studies were screened at title and abstract level. The primary endpoint was major bleeding. Secondary endpoints included myocardial infarction, stent thrombosi...

The continuous challenge of antithrombotic strategies in diabetes: focus on direct oral anticoagulants
AbstractDirect oral anticoagulants (DOACs) include dabigatran, which inhibits thrombin, and apixaban, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban, which inhibit factor Xa. They have been extensively studied in large trials involving patients affected by the most common cardiovascular diseases. As the presence of diabetes leads to peculiar changes in primary and secondary hemostasis, in this review we highlight the current evidence regarding DOAC use in diabetic patients included in the majority of recently conducted studies. Overall, in trials involving patients with atrial fibrillation, data seem to confirm at least a similar efficacy and ...

Clinical Outcomes of Antithrombotic Strategies for Patients with Atrial Fibrillation After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
This study aims to explore the best antithrombotic strategy for AF patients after PCI based on a network meta-analysis. This study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42018093928). The PubMed, Cochrane, and EMBASE databases were searched to identify clinical trials concerning antithrombotic therapy for AF patients with PCI from inception to April 2018. Pairwise and network meta-analysis were conducted to compare clinical outcomes of different antithrombotic therapy. The primary endpoint was major bleeding. Fifteen studies including 16,382 patients were identified with follow-up ranging from 3 to 12 months. Non-vitamin K oral an...

Association between High Platelet Reactivity Following Dual Antiplatelet Therapy and Ischemic Events in Japanese Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Undergoing Stent Implantation.
CONCLUSION: HTPR was significantly associated with adverse ischemic outcomes at 1 year after PCI in Japanese patients receiving maintenance DAPT, indicating its potential as a prognostic indicator of clinical outcomes in this high-risk patient population.

Multicenter research of bleeding risk between prasugrel and clopidogrel in Japanese patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
AbstractAlthough it has been reported that prasugrel achieves stronger antiplatelet effect and fewer cardiovascular events compared to clopidogrel in Japanese patients, there are limited data comparing the safety between the 2 dose regimens. Data from 1031 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease undergoing PCI at 5 institutions from May 2014 to April 2016, who received aspirin plus either clopidogrel (619 patients) or prasugrel (412 patients), were retrospectively analyzed. The choice of  clopidogrel or prasugrel was left to the operator's discretion. Adverse events were defined as a composite of bleeding, hepat...

Safety and Efficacy of Low-Dose Prasugrel as Part of Triple Therapy With Aspirin and Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention  - From the TWMU-AF PCI Registry.
CONCLUSIONS: Low-dose prasugrel, as part of triple therapy, did not increase the risk of bleeding compared with clopidogrel. Therefore, it can be an alternative to clopidogrel for patients with AF undergoing PCI. PMID: 30918236 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Safety and Efficacy of Triple Antithrombotic Therapy with Dabigatran versus Vitamin K Antagonist in Atrial Fibrillation Patients: A Pilot Study.
Conclusion: Dabigatran at the dose used for stroke prevention appears safer than VKA and maintains a similar efficacy profile, when used with DAPT, in AF patients who have undergone PCI with stenting for ACS. PMID: 30895193 [PubMed - in process]

Patient-oriented composite endpoints and net adverse clinical events with ticagrelor monotherapy following percutaneous coronary intervention: Insights from the randomized GLOBAL LEADERS trial.
CONCLUSIONS: The experimental treatment strategy of one-month DAPT followed by 23 months of ticagrelor alone did not result in a significant reduction in the rates of site-reported POCE or NACE, when compared to the reference treatment. PMID: 30888959 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Randomized evaluation of ticagrelor monotherapy after 3-month dual-antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome treated with new-generation sirolimus-eluting stents: TICO trial rationale and design
ConclusionsThe TICO trial is an ongoing trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor monotherapy following 3-month DAPT exclusively in ACS patients treated with uniform BP-SES. It may provide novel insights regarding the need for adjusted use of DAPT for rebalancing risk–benefit in current practice and changing from the conventional concept of aspirin maintenance to a ticagrelor-based regimen in the management of ACS.

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in the treatment of coronary and peripheral atherosclerosis. Expert Consensus.
Abstract Oral anticoagulants (OAC) are widely used for prevention of systemic thromboembolism, including the reduction of the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and prosthetic heart valves. There is also an increasing population of patients who require not only OACs, but also double antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). A typical example is a patient with AF and stable coronary artery disease or acute coronary syndrome (ACS), treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In recent years, with the introduction of NOACs, triple or dual therapy has become safer. Regardless of these indications for...
