Abstract Introduction Based on data from randomized controlled trials, both American and European guidelines recommend treating acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with second generation P2Y12 inhibitors.1,2 Direct head-to-head comparison of these agents was scarce until the recent publication of the ISAR-REACT-5 study which demonstrated the superiority of the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) over the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor in terms of 1-year composite of death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke.3,4,5 Given the unexpected outcomes of this trial, we sought to perform a comparison of ticagrelor and prasugrel in real-life ACS patients. Purpose To compare the outcomes of ACS (acute coronary syndrome) patients undergoing in-hospital PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) treated with the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) versus the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor. Methods ACSIS (Acute Coronary Syndrome in Israel) is a national ACS snapshot survey conducted in all 25 cardiology departments in Israel since 2000 over a two-month period, every two to three years. Both the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) and the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor were commercially introduced in Israel in 2010. We therefore considered patients enrolled in ACSIS surveys 2010–2018 for the present analysis. Results Among 7,233 patients enrolled to the ACSIS (Acute Coronary Syndrome in Israel) registry between 2010 and 2018, we identified 1133 eligible patients treated with the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) and 825 with the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor. In hospital complication rates, including rates of stent thrombosis, were roughly similar between groups. Compared to the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor, the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) was associated with lower 1-year death in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patient compared to non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS) patients (p for interaction 0.03). In propensity score matched STEMI patients (502 receiving the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug), 251 the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor) 30-day re-hospitalization rate (p<0.05), 30-day MACE (the composite of death, MI, stroke, urgent revascularization; p=0.006), and 1-year mortality rates (p=0.08) were higher in the the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor group compared to the the Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) group; In NSTE-ACS patients, outcomes were not impacted by drug choice. Conclusion The Irreversible thienopyridine type P2Y12 inhibitor (prodrug) was more effective than the reversible P2Y12 inhibitor in STEMI patients, but not in NSTE-ACS patients.

Background and Aim The timing of P2Y12 inhibitor loading in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a matter of debate. The aim of our study was to compare the efficacy and safety of oral P2Y12 inhibitors: clopidogrel, ticagrelor and prasugrel administered at two different time points in relation to PCI: early (> 2 hours pre-PCI) versus late (< 2 hours pre-PCI or post-PCI). Methods This is a systematic review and meta-analysis. Randomized controlled trials and non-randomized studies were included. Outcomes evaluated were combined major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), myocardial infarction (MI), target vessel revascularization, death and bleeding complications. Summary estimates of the relative risks with therapy were calculated. Results Twenty-three studies met the selection criteria and included 60,907 patients. Early P2Y12 inhibitor loading was associated with a 22% relative risk reduction (RRR) of MACE (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.68–0.89; p < 0.001). Early clopidogrel loading was associated with a 25% RRR of MACE (95% CI = 0.65–0.85; p < 0.001), a 30% RRR of MI (95% CI = 0.6–0.82; p < 0.0001) and 25% RRR of death (95% CI = 0.64–0.87; p = 0.0002), without an impact on major bleedings. In ST-elevation myocardial infarction as well as non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS), early clopidogrel loading resulted in 35 and 22% RRR in 30 days MACE (p < 0.001), respectively, with no impact in elective PCI. Whereas early loading with prasugrel and ticagrelor did not improve ischaemic outcomes, prasugrel administered early increased bleeding risks in NSTE-ACS. Conclusion Early clopidogrel loading is associated with a better efficacy and similar safety, whereas timing of ticagrelor or prasugrel loading had no effects on ischaemic events.

This study seeks to investigate potential cardioprotection of Danlou Tablets in patients undergoing PCI with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). 219 patients with NSTE-ACS were randomised to Danlou Tablet pretreatment (n=109) or placebo (n=110). No patients received statins prior to PCI and all patients were given atorvastatin (10 mg/day) after procedure. The main endpoint was the composite incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) within 30 days after PCI. The proportion of patients with elevated levels of cTn I>5 × 99% of upper reference limit was significantly lower in the Danlou Tablet group at 8 h (22.0% versus 34.5%, p=0.04) and 24 h (23.9% versus 38.2%, p=0.02) after PCI. The 30-day MACEs occurred in 22.0% of the Danlou Tablet group and 33.6% in the placebo group (p=0.06). The incidence of MACE at 90-day follow-up was significantly decreased in the Danlou Tablet group compared to the placebo group (23.9% versus 37.3%, p=0.03). The difference between the groups at 90 days was the incidence of nonfatal myocardial infarction (22% versus 34.5%, p=0.04). These findings might support that treatment with Danlou Tablet could reduce the incidence of periprocedural myocardial infarction in patients with ACS undergoing PCI.

Introduction: We aimed to compare the outcomes of ACS (acute coronary syndrome) patients undergoing in-hospital PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) treated with prasugrel versus ticagrelor. Methods: Among 7,233 patients enrolled to the ACSIS (Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Survey) between 2010 and 2018, we identified 1126 eligible patients treated with prasugrel and 817 with ticagrelor. Comparison between the groups was preformed separately in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, propensity score matched (PSM) STEMI patients, and non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS) patients. Results: In-hospital complication rates, including rates of stent thrombosis, were not significantly different between groups. In PSM STEMI patients, 30-day re-hospitalization rate (p <0.05), 30-day MACE (the composite of death, MI, stroke and urgent revascularization; p=0.006), and 1-year mortality rates (p = 0.08) were higher in the ticagrelor group compared to the prasugrel group; In NSTE-ACS patients, outcomes were not associated with drug choice. In cox regression analysis applied on the entire cohort, prasugrel was associated with lower 1-year mortality in STEMI patient but not in NSTE-ACS patients (p for interaction 0.03). Conclusions: Compared to ticagrelor, prasugrel was associated with superior clinical outcomes in STEMI patients, but not in NSTE-ACS patients.

SummaryOptimal platelet reactivity (PR) inhibition is critical to prevent thrombotic events in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to determine the relationship between high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) following a 600 mg loading dose (LD) of clopidogrel. We performed a prospective monocentre study enrolling patients on clopidogrel undergoing PCI. The VASP index was used to assess PR inhibition after clopidogrel LD. HTPR was defined according to the consensus as a VASP index ≥50%. The present study included 833 patients undergoing PCI. Most patients had PCI for an acute coronary syndrome (58.7%). The mean VASP index was 50 ± 23% with a large inter-individual variability (range: 1–94%). Patients with a VASP index ≥50% were significantly older (p= 0.03), with a higher body mass index (BMI) (p<0.001), more often diabetic (p=0.03), taking omeprazole (p=0.03), admitted for an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and with a high fibrinogen level compared to good responders (VASP <50%). In multivariate analysis BMI, omeprazole use, ACS and high fibrinogen level (p<0.001) remained significantly associated with HTPR. Of importance, in this analysis STEMI was independently associated with HTPR when compared with the other forms of ACS (NSTEMI and unstable angina) with an odd ratio of 2.14 (95% CI: 1.3 –3.5; p=0.003). In conclusion, STEMI is associated with high on-treatment platelet reactivity following 600 mg of clopidogrel. The present results suggest that 600 mg of clopidogrel may not be able to achieve an optimal PR inhibition in STEMI patients undergoing PCI and more potent drugs may be preferred.

Abstract Background The presence of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is per se a predictor of reduced responsiveness to clopidogrel; in particular, patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have impaired clopidogrel-induced platelet inhibition than those with other forms of ACS. However, the impact of the type of ACS on the pharmocodynamic efficacy of more potent P2Y12 antagonists such as prasugrel or ticagrelor has not been fully elucidated to date. Purpose To assess the impact of the type of ACS on platelet inhibition mediated by P2Y12 receptor antagonists in the acute and the maintenance phase of therapy in a contemporary cohort of ACS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Substudy of a prospective, national, multicentre, pharmacodynamic registry conducted in a population of ACS patients undergoing PCI and treated with dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor as per clinical indication. Patients were classified according to the ACS diagnosis into groups: a) STEMI, b) non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTEACS), c) unstable angina (UA), and d) other (excluded from the present analysis). Platelet function tests (PFT) were performed at day 1 and day 30 (±5) after PCI and included: 1) VerifyNow P2Y12 assay, expressed as P2Y12 reaction units (PRUs); 2) Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) assay; and 3) Multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA). Results A total of 965 patients (372 with STEMI, 395 with NSTEACS and 198 with UA) were included in the present substudy. At day 1, the proportions of patients with each type of ACS according to the P2Y12 inhibitor received were: 1) clopidogrel (n=317): STEMI 35.0%, NSTEACS 34.4% and UA 30.6%; 2) prasugrel (n=192): STEMI 70.3%, NSTEACS 17.7% and UA 12.0%; 3) ticagrelor (n=456): STEMI 27.6%, NSTEACS 55.3% and UA 17.1%. A statistically significant reduced platelet inhibition, measured with the VerifyNow system, was observed in STEMI patients compared with the other forms of ACS in patients receiving clopidogrel (STEMI: 217.3±8.1, NSTEACS: 157.1±7.9 and UA: 164.9±8.6 PRUs; p for STEMI vs. NSTEACS <0.001 and p for STEMI vs. UA <0.001) and ticagrelor (STEMI: 57.7±3.8, NSTEACS: 45.2.1±2.6 and UA: 40.6±4.9 PRUs; p for STEMI vs. NSTEACS 0.008 and p for STEMI vs. UA 0.007), while a numerical trend towards greater platelet reactivity in STEMI compared to UA was observed in subjects receiving prasugrel (Figure). Remarkably, at day 30, no significant differences on platelet inhibition were observed according to the ACS type with any of the P2Y12 inhibitors. Similar results were observed with MEA and VASP assays. PD response according to the ACS type Conclusions Patients presenting with STEMI have impaired platelet inhibition mediated by P2Y12 antagonists compared to other types of ACS during the acute phase of therapy, whereas no difference is observed during the maintenance phase of treatment.

We present the case of a 70-year-old man with a history of haemophilia B, who presented to our hospital with a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. The patient, following consultation by a haemophilia expert, was revascularized with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) under adequate clotting factor administration. Patients with haemophilia and acute coronary syndrome, are susceptible to periprocedural bleeding and thrombotic events during PCI, and therefore a balanced management plan should always be implemented by a multidisciplinary team.
