A Prospective, Randomized, Open Label Trial of 6Months vs. 12Months Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation In ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction: Rationale and design of the “DAPT-STEMI trial”
Publication date: Available online 20 February 2017 Source:American Heart Journal Author(s): Elvin Kedhi, Enrico Fabris, Martin van der Ent, Mark Kennedy, Pawel Buszman, Clemens von Birgelen, Stéphane Cook, Hans Wedel, Felix Zijlstra Abstract. Background The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with second-generation drug eluting stents (DES) is unclear. Because prolonged DAPT is associated with higher bleeding risk and health care costs, establishing optimal DAPT duration is of paramount importance. No other randomized controlled trials have evaluated the sa...

A prospective, randomized, open-label trial of 6-month versus 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stent implantation in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: Rationale and design of the “DAPT-STEMI trial”
Publication date: June 2017 Source:American Heart Journal, Volume 188 Author(s): Elvin Kedhi, Enrico Fabris, Martin van der Ent, Mark W. Kennedy, Pawel Buszman, Clemens von Birgelen, Stéphane Cook, Hans Wedel, Felix Zijlstra Background The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention with second-generation drug eluting stents (DESs) is unclear. Because prolonged DAPT is associated with higher bleeding risk and health care costs, establishing optimal DAPT duration is of paramount importance. No other randomized controlled trials have evaluated the safety of shorter DAPT dur...

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients with Diabetes and Acute Coronary Syndromes Managed without Revascularization
Conclusions Among NSTE ACS patients managed medically without revascularization, patients with DM had a higher risk of ischemic events that was amplified among those treated with insulin. There was no differential treatment effect with a more potent DAPT regimen of aspirin + prasugrel vs. aspirin + clopidogrel.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Receiving Apixaban or Warfarin: Insights from the ARISTOTLE Trial
Conclusions PCI occurred infrequently during follow-up. The majority of patients on study drug at the time of PCI remained on study drug in the peri-PCI period; 19% continued the study drug without interruption. Antiplatelet therapy use post-PCI was variable, though the majority of patients received DAPT. Additional data are needed to guide the use of antithrombotics in patients undergoing PCI.

Rationale and design for the Vascular Outcomes study of ASA along with rivaroxaban in endovascular or surgical limb revascularization for peripheral artery disease (VOYAGER PAD)
Conclusions VOYAGER PAD is evaluating the efficacy of rivaroxaban added to background antiplatelet therapy to reduce major cardiovascular and limb ischemic vascular outcomes in the high-risk population of PAD patients undergoing peripheral revascularization.

Safety and efficacy of non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation patients following percutaneous coronary intervention: A bivariate analysis of the PIONEER AF-PCI and RE-DUAL PCI trial
Conclusions A bivariate analysis that simultaneously characterizes both risk and benefit demonstrates that rivaroxaban- and dabigatran-based regimens were both favorable over VKA plus dual antiplatelet therapy among patients with AF undergoing PCI.

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.

Applying contemporary antithrombotic therapy in the secondary prevention of chronic atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
Publication date: Available online 23 October 2019Source: American Heart JournalAuthor(s): Robert C. Welsh, Eric D. Peterson, Raffaele De Caterina, Christoph Bode, Bernard Gersh, John W. EikelboomAbstractFor four decades, anti-thrombotic therapy with aspirin has been a cornerstone of secondary prevention for patients with chronic atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Unfortunately, despite the use of evidence-based therapies, patients with ASCVD continue to have recurrent major adverse cardiovascular (CV) events including death, myocardial infarction and stroke -- at a rate of approximately 2–4% per year. To co...
