Abstract Background Previous studies demonstrated the impact of concomitant cancer on the increased risk of adverse cardiac and bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the impact in this 2nd- and 3rd-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) era remains to be elucidated. Purpose To clarify the impact of cancer on clinical outcomes in patients after 2nd- or 3rd -generation DES implantation. Methods A total of 932 patients who underwent PCI with 2nd- or 3rd -generation DES were included. Patients who were diagnosed with cancer after PCI were excluded from the present cohort. The incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) including cardiac death, myocardial infarction and target or non-target vessel revascularization, and bleeding events was compared between the patients with cancer or the history of treatment for cancer (cancer group, n=140) and the patients without cancer (no cancer group, n=792). Bleeding events were evaluated according to the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction definition. Further comparisons were performed between the 2 groups (cancer group, n=126; no cancer group, n=252) after the adjustment of baseline clinical characteristics using 1:2 propensity score-matching analysis. Results The incidence of MACE at median 577 [340–1043] days after the PCI was comparable between the 2 groups in both unadjusted (15.0% vs. 15.0%, p=0.984) (Panel A) and adjusted cohorts (14.3 vs. 13.1%, p=0.796), although the incidence of all cause death in the cancer group was significantly greater than the no cancer group (15.1 vs. 9.5%, p=0.007, in the adjusted cohort). The increased risk of MACE was not observed in any types of cancer or treatment (Panel B). The incidence of bleeding events was also comparable between the 2 groups (4.0 vs. 2.0%, p=0.297, in the adjusted cohort). Conclusion The increased incidence of MACE and bleeding events in patients with cancer was not demonstrated after the 2nd- or 3rd-generation DES implantation. Further studies are required to clarify the safety and efficacy of PCI in patients with cancer.

We examined the longitudinal changes of VEGF levels after percutaneous coronary intervention for predicting major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. VEGF was measured in 94 CAD patients’ serum before revascularization, 1-month and 1-year after. Independently of clinical presentation, patients had lower VEGF concentration than a cohort of healthy subjects (median, IQ: 15.9, 9.0–264 pg/mL versus 419, 212–758 pg/mL;P<0.001) at baseline. VEGF increased to 1-month (median, IQ: 276, 167–498 pg/mL;P<0.001) and remained steady to 1-year (median, IQ: 320, 173–497 pg/mL;P<0.001) approaching control levels. Drug eluting stent apposition and previous medication intake produced a less steep VEGF evolution after intervention (P<0.05). Baseline VEGF concentration <40.8 pg/mL conveyed increased risk for MACE in a 5-year follow-up. Results reflect a positive role of VEGF in recovery and support its importance in CAD prognosis.

Background The American College of Cardiology released a scientific advisory that included a recommendation to delay elective of noncardiac surgery (NCS) for 1 yr after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a drug-eluting stent (DES). Methods This single-center, retrospective study examined the risk for complications of NCS performed within 2 yr after DES placement and examined whether this risk changed based on the time between procedures. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) during the hospitalization for NCS. Bleeding events were analyzed as a secondary endpoint. Results From April 22, 2003, to December 31, 2006, a total of 520 patients underwent NCS within 2 yr after PCI with a DES at Mayo Clinic. The majority, 84%, of the DES placed were Cypher stents. The frequency of MACE was not found to be significantly associated with the time between PCI and NCS (rate of MACEs 6.4, 5.7, 5.9, and 3.3% at 0-90, 91-180, 181-365, and 366-730 days after PCI with DES, respectively; P = 0.727 for comparison across groups). Characteristics found to be associated with MACEs in univariate analysis were advanced age (P = 0.031), emergent NCS (P = 0.006), shock at time of PCI (P = 0.035), previous history of myocardial infarction (P = 0.046), and continuation of a thienopyridine (ticlopidine or clopidogrel) into the preoperative period (P = 0.040). The rate of transfusion did not seem to be associated with antiplatelet therapy use. Conclusions The risk of MACEs with NCS after DES placement was not significantly associated with time from stenting to surgery, but observed rates of MACEs were lowest after 1 yr.

Introduction: Perioperative cardiovascular events are an important cause of morbidity and mortality associated with non-cardiac surgery (NCS), especially in patients with recent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) who require dual antiplatelet therapy. Objective: To illustrate the types and timing of different noncardiac surgeries occurring within 1 year of PCI, and to evaluate the risk of thrombotic and bleeding events according to perioperative antiplatelet management. Methods: All patients undergoing NCS within 1 year of PCI at a tertiary-care center between 2011 and 2018 were included. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiac events (MACE; composite of death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis or target vessel revascularization). The key secondary outcome was major bleeding, defined as ≥2 units of blood transfusion. All outcomes were evaluated at 30 days after NCS. Results: A total of 1092 NCS (corresponding to 747 patients) were included and classified by surgical risk (low: 50.9%, intermediate: 38.4%, high: 10.7%) and priority (elective: 88.5%, urgent/emergent: 11.5%). High-risk and urgent/emergent surgeries tended to occur earlier post-PCI compared to low-risk and elective ones ( Figure-A ). The incidence of MACE and bleeding was time-dependent, with an increased risk in surgeries occurring in the first 6 months post-PCI ( Figure-B ). Perioperative antiplatelet cessation occurred in 487 (44.6%) NCS and was more likely for intermediate-risk procedures and after 6 months of PCI. There was no significant association between antiplatelet cessation and cardiac events. Conclusions: Among patients undergoing NCS within 1 year of PCI, the perioperative risk of MACE is inversely related to time from PCI. Preoperative interruption of antiplatelet therapy was observed in less than half of all cases and was not associated with an increased risk of cardiac events.

Objectives. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical impact of 3 bifurcation angles in left main (LM) bifurcation treated with the 2-stent technique. Background. Data are limited regarding the impact of bifurcation angles after LM percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods. Using patient-level 4 multicenter registries in Korea, 462 patients undergoing LM bifurcation PCI with the 2-stent technique were identified (181 crush, 167 T-stenting; 63% 1st generation drug-eluting stent (DES), 37% 2nd generation DES). Three bifurcation angles, between the LM and left anterior descending (LAD), the LM and left circumflex (LCX), and the LAD and LCX, were measured. The primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization (TLR). Results. In patients treated with the crush technique, the best cutoff value (BCV) to predict TLF was 152° of the LM-LAD angle. In the crush group, a significantly higher TLF rate, mostly driven by TLR, was observed in the LM-LAD angle ≥152° group compared with the <152° group (35.7% vs. 14.6%; adjusted hazard ratio 3.476; 95% confidence interval 1.612–7.492). An LM-LAD angle ≥152° was an independent predictor of TLF. In the T-stenting, no bifurcation angle affected the clinical outcomes. Conclusions. In LM bifurcation PCI using the 2-stent technique, wide LM-LAD angle (≥152°) was associated with a greater risk of TLF in the crush, whereas none of the bifurcation angles affected T-stenting outcomes.

BackgroundCardiovascular diseases are the second most common cause of mortality among cancer survivors, after death from cancer. We sought to assess the impact of cancer on the short-term outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), by analysing data obtained from a large-scale database.MethodsThis study was based on the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases and the Diagnosis Procedure Combination. We identified patients who were hospitalised for primary AMI between April 2012 and March 2017. Propensity Score (PS) was estimated with logistic regression model, with cancer as the dependent variable and 21 clinically relevant covariates. The main outcome was in-hospital mortality.ResultsWe split 1 52 208 patients into two groups with or without cancer. Patients with cancer tended to be older (cancer group 73±11 years vs non-cancer group 68±13 years) and had smaller body mass index (cancer group 22.8±3.6 vs non-cancer 23.9±4.3). More patients in the non-cancer group had hypertension or dyslipidaemia than their cancer group counterparts. The non-cancer group also had a higher rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (cancer 92.6% vs non-cancer 95.2%). Patients with cancer had a higher 30-day mortality (cancer 6.0% vs non-cancer 5.3%) and total mortality (cancer 8.1% vs non-cancer 6.1%) rate, but this was statistically insignificant after PS matching.ConclusionCancer did not significantly impact short-term in-hospital mortality rates after hospitalisation for primary AMI.

Abstract Aims Patients with history of myocardial infarction (MI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain at risk of recurrent ischaemic events. The optimal antithrombotic strategy for this cohort remains debated. Methods and results In this prespecified analysis of the TWILIGHT trial, we evaluated the impact of prior MI on treatment effect of ticagrelor monotherapy vs. ticagrelor plus aspirin in patients undergoing PCI with at least one clinical and one angiographic high-risk feature and free from adverse events at 3 months after the index PCI. The primary endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5, the key secondary endpoint was the composite of all-cause death, MI, or stroke, both at 12 months after randomization. 1937 (29.7%) patients with and 4595 (70.3%) without prior MI were randomized to ticagrelor and placebo or ticagrelor and aspirin. Patients with prior MI had increased rates of death, MI or stroke (5.7 vs. 3.2%, P &lt; 0.001) but similar BARC 2–5 bleeding (5.0 vs. 5.5%, P = 0.677). Ticagrelor monotherapy reduced the risk of BARC 2–5 bleeding in patients with [3.4% vs. 6.7%; hazard ratio (HR): 0.50; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.33–0.76] and without prior MI [4.2% vs. 7.0%; HR: 0.58; 95% CI: 0.45–0.76; pinteraction = 0.54). Rates of the key secondary ischaemic outcome were similar between treatment groups irrespective of history of MI (prior MI: 6.0% vs. 5.5%; HR: 1.09; 95% CI: 0.75–1.58; no prior MI: 3.1% vs. 3.3%; HR: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.67–1.28; pinteraction = 0.52). Conclusions Ticagrelor monotherapy is associated with significantly lower risk of bleeding events as compared to ticagrelor plus aspirin without any compromise in ischaemic prevention among high-risk patients with history of MI undergoing PCI.
