Indobufen or Aspirin on Top of Clopidogrel after Coronary Drug-eluting Stent Implantation (OPTION): a Randomized, Open-label, Endpoint-blinded, Non-inferiority Trial
Conclusions: In Chinese patients with negative cardiac troponin undergoing DES implantation, indobufen plus clopidogrel DAPT compared with aspirin plus clopidogrel DAPT significantly reduced the risk of 1-year net clinical outcomes, which was mainly driven by a reduction in bleeding events without an increase in ischemic events.PMID:36335890 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062762

A rare cause of abdominal pain managed unconventionally: acute renal infarction caused by atrial fibrillation: a case report
ConclusionsAcute renal infarction from thromboembolism is a rare but serious complication of arterial fibrillation. More efficient and different options for intervention methods will benefit the treatment of this disease. Here, we report a combination therapeutic method that has not been used in acute renal infarction associated with arterial fibrillation, and which restored renal perfusion and prevented long-term kidney injury.

Real-world data on potent P2Y12-inhibition in patients with suspected chronic coronary syndrome, referred for coronary angiography
Conclusion In patients with CCS referred for CA and PCI if feasible, a more potent P2Y12 inhibition strategy with ticagrelor was not associated with bleeding complications or MACE compared with clopidogrel.

Real-World Data on Potent P2Y12 Inhibition in Patients with Suspected Chronic Coronary Syndrome, Referred for Coronary Angiography
Discussion: In patients with CCS referred for CA and PCI if feasible, a more potent P2Y12 inhibition strategy with ticagrelor was not associated with bleeding complications or MACE compared with clopidogrel.

Comparative efficacy and safety of antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy in patients with chronic coronary syndromes after percutaneous coronary intervention: A network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Aimed to evaluate and compare the interactive effects of different antiplatelet or anticoagulation strategies in patients with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Randomized controlled trials comparing different antiplatelet or anticoagulant strategies in patients with CCS after PCI were included. The primary outcomes were major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), mortality, ischemic and bleeding events. Compared to aspirin alone, addition of prasugrel or ticagrelor to aspirin resulted in lower risk of myocardial infarction (MI) [odds ratio (OR): 0.38 (95% confidence interval 0...

Efficacy and Safety of De-escalation of Antiplatelet Therapy After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
Abstract: Considering that there is no definite conclusion on the efficacy and safety of switching from potent P2Y12 inhibitors to clopidogrel, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and compared the efficacy and safety of de-escalation or not of antiplatelet therapy. The relevant randomized controlled trials were included by searching several databases. Net adverse clinical events were identified as the composite end point, which was defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, revascularizatio...

Comparison of Ischemic and Bleeding Events Between Short-Duration Versus Long-Duration Tirofiban Regimens in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Abstract: Tirofiban has been used historically as a bridge to platelet inhibition with clopidogrel in ST-segment myocardial infarction (STEMI) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to prevent stent thrombosis. However, ticagrelor and prasugrel reach similar levels of platelet inhibition at 30 minutes to that of clopidogrel at 6 hours, challenging the need for long-duration tirofiban. This 1-year, retrospective cohort study compared ischemic and bleeding outcomes of short-duration versus long-duration tirofiban regimens in patients with STEMI who received ticagrelor or prasugrel at the time of PCI. The primary...

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...

Current status of antithrombotic therapy and in-hospital outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention in Germany
CONCLUSION: The preferred therapy after PCI in patients with AF is DAT with a NOAC and clopidogrel. In-hospital ischemic and bleeding events were rare. The recommended durations for combination therapy vary considerably.PMID:35243515 | DOI:10.1007/s00059-022-05099-6

Clinical Outcomes After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Over Time on the Basis of CYP2C19 Polymorphisms
In conclusion, these data demonstrate a higher risk for ischemic events in patients with 2 CYP2C19 LOF alleles who are prescribed clopidogrel, seen at 3 months after PCI, that is not sustained for 12 months.
