An open-Label, 2 × 2 factorial, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety of apixaban vs. vitamin K antagonist and aspirin vs. placebo in patients with atrial fibrillation and acute coronary syndrome and/or percutaneous coronary intervention: Rationale and design of the AUGUSTUS trial
Publication date: June 2018 Source:American Heart Journal, Volume 200 Author(s): Renato D. Lopes, Amit N. Vora, Danny Liaw, Christopher B. Granger, Harald Darius, Shaun G. Goodman, Roxana Mehran, Stephan Windecker, John H. Alexander Background The optimal antithrombotic strategy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who develop acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or the need for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is uncertain. The risk of bleeding is a major concern when oral anticoagulation is required to prevent stroke, and concomitant therapy with antiplatelet agents is required to minimize recurrent ischemic ...

Rationale and design of the EVOLVE short DAPT study to assess 3-month dual antiplatelet therapy in subjects at high risk for bleeding undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionThe EVOLVE Short DAPT study will prospectively define the safety of DAPT discontinuation at 3 months in high bleeding risk patients treated with the SYNERGY stent.

Ticagrelor-based antiplatelet regimens in patients with atherosclerotic artery disease - a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
ConclusionsIn patients with atherosclerotic artery disease, the benefit of ticagrelor-based therapies was confined to patients treated for CAD. The drug significantly reduced the risk for all-cause death and MI without excess risk of bleeding in these patients. In consideration of limitations of subgroup analyses, these results need further validation.

Ticagrelor-based antiplatelet regimens in patients with atherosclerotic artery disease—A meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
ConclusionsIn patients with atherosclerotic artery disease, the benefit of ticagrelor-based therapies was confined to patients treated for coronary artery disease. The drug significantly reduced the risk for all-cause death and MI without excess risk of bleeding in these patients. In consideration of limitations of subgroup analyses, these results need further validation.

Design and rationale for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Prior Heart Attack Using Ticagrelor Compared to Placebo on a Background of Aspirin–Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 54 (PEGASUS-TIMI 54) trial
Conclusions: PEGASUS-TIMI 54 is investigating whether the addition of intensive antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor to low-dose aspirin reduces major adverse cardiovascular events in high-risk patients with a history of myocardial infarction.

Rationale and design of The Intracoronary Stenting and Antithrombotic Regimen—Testing of a six-week versus a six-month clopidogrel treatment Regimen In Patients with concomitant aspirin and oraL anticoagulant therapy following drug-Eluting stenting (ISAR-TRIPLE) study
Background: An increasing number of patients undergoing coronary stenting need lifelong anticoagulation and therefore require a triple therapy typically consisting of aspirin, clopidogrel, and a vitamin K antagonist. Triple therapy confers an elevated bleeding risk as compared with dual therapy; however, omission of either antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy might increase the risk of stent thrombosis or thrombembolic events. Although guidelines recommend a duration of dual antiplatelet therapy of 6 to 12months after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy in patients re...

Balancing the risks of bleeding and stent thrombosis: A decision analytic model to compare duration of dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stents
Conclusions Small absolute differences in the risk of ischemic events with longer DAPT would be sufficient to outweigh the known bleeding risks.

Long-term outcomes for women vs. men with unstable angina/non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction managed medically without revascularization: Insights from the TRILOGY ACS trial
Conclusions : Long-term ischemic and bleeding outcomes for in medically managed ACS patients were similar for women vs. men, as was treatment-related platelet reactivity. Women had a higher baseline risk profile and, after adjustment, significantly lower risk of the primary composite endpoint and all-cause death through 30 months.

Long-term outcomes for women versus men with unstable angina/non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction managed medically without revascularization: Insights from the TaRgeted platelet Inhibition to cLarify the Optimal strateGy to medicallY manage Acute Coronary Syndromes trial
Conclusions Long-term ischemic and bleeding outcomes in medically managed ACS patients were similar for women versus men, as was treatment-related platelet reactivity. Women had a higher baseline risk profile and, after adjustment, significantly lower risk of the primary composite end point and all-cause death through 30 months.
