Triple Antithrombotic Therapy

Aim. To evaluate efficacy and safety of reduced dose of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) as part of triple antithrombotic therapy in AF patients, undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to identify factors, associated with this strategy. Materials and methods. The study is a cohort analysis of AF patients with AF, who successfully underwent elective PCI and assigned DOACs as part of triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT).Influence of a reduced DOACs dose as a part of TAT on the frequency of thecomposite efficacy endpoint (acute coronary syndrome, ischemic stroke, venous thromboembolic events, cardiovascular death and angina pectoris aggravation/need for unplanned PCI) and safety endpoint (hemorrhagic complications BARC types 2-5) were assessed using the Log-Rank criterion. Results. The study included 124 pts (69.4% women, mean aged 69±8.2 years). Themedian total score CHA2DS2-VASc was 5, the median of the Charlson index composed 7. Half (52%) of AF patients with high risk of thrombotic events after elective PCI received reduced-DOACs dose. Median follow up period was 11.0 month. 17 adverse thrombotic events were recorded during this period, BARC 2-5 bleedings occurred in 27 patients. Reduced DOACs doses in AF patients undergoing PCI were associated with significant increase of thrombotic events during follow up period compared to patients received full DOACs doses (0.79 vs 0.93, Log-Rank p=0.0292). Patients, who received full and reduced DOAC doses, were comparable in the frequency of BARC 2-5 bleedings (0.78 vs 0.75, Log-Rank p=0.06742). Conclusions. The administration of a reduced DOACs dose as a part of TAT in patients with AF, who underwent PCI, was associated with significant increase in the incidence of all thrombotic events, compared to patients, who received full dose of anticoagulants. The number of hemorrhagic complications was comparable.

Triple Antithrombotic Therapy

Abstract Aims  To assess the efficacy-safety profile of dual antithrombotic therapy (DAT) including direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) vs. triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods and results Randomized trials of AF patients with ACS/PCI, comparing DAT using DOACs against TAT, were selected. Overall, 11 161 studies were screened, 458 trials assessed, and four included, comprising 10 234 patients followed for a mean of 11 months. DAT compared to TAT resulted in significant reductions of trial-defined primary safety outcome [odds ratio (OR) 0.63, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.50–0.79, number needed to treat (NNT) 17] and of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) major bleeding (OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.41–0.70, NNT 76) and in a numerical reduction of intracranial haemorrhage (OR 0.50, 95% CI 0.21–1.19, NNT 314), which became significant after exclusion of DOACs from TAT and vitamin K antagonist from DAT arms (OR 0.31, 95% CI 0.15–0.64). There were no significant differences in the risks of cardiovascular or any deaths or stroke, but with DAT, there was a numerical increase in myocardial infarctions (MIs) (OR 1.23, 95% CI 0.99–1.54, estimated NNT for an additional harmful outcome (NNTH) 151), which became significant in the ACS/PCI subgroup (OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.02–2.00), and a 60% significant increase in stent thrombosis risk (OR 1.60, 95% CI 1.02–2.52; NNTH 274). Conclusion  Dual antithrombotic therapy, compared to TAT, conferred a significantly reduced risk of overall bleeding but with a significant increase of stent thrombosis risk in the overall population and a significant 43% increase of MI in the ACS/PCI subgroup.

Triple Antithrombotic Therapy

Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of double therapy (DT) (no aspirin) versus triple therapy (TT) (with aspirin) antithrombotic drugs in patients with atrial fibrillation and acute coronary syndrome or underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane, Scopus, and Web of Science for relevant articles from inception to December 2020. We conducted the analysis of dichotomous outcomes using risk ratio (RR) and relative 95% confidence interval (CI), while the continuous outcomes were analyzed using mean difference (MD) and relative 95% CI. Heterogeneous outcomes were analyzed with random-effects model, and homogeneous data were analyzed with fixed-effects model. We assessed the risk of bias among the included studies by using Cochrane’s risk of bias tool.Results: A total of five studies were included. Regarding Major or Minor Bleeding, the overall risk ratio was significantly lower with DT group compared with TT group (RR=0.60 [0.45, 0.81], (P = 0.07)). For the safety endpoint (TIMI major or minor bleeding, TIMI major bleeding) favored DT group over TT group, respectively (RR=0.60 [0.45, 0.81], (P = 0.07)); (RR= 0.55 [0.43, 0.70], (P < 0.01)). Intracranial hemorrhage did not differ between both groups (RR=0.62 [0.37, 1.05], (P = 0.07)). The efficacy endpoint, all-cause death showed no significant difference between both groups (RR=1.08 [0.89, 1.31], (P = 0.42)). There were no significant differences between two groups in cardiovascular death, stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction and stroke, respectively (RR=1.10 [0.86, 1.41], (P = 0.43); (RR=1.40 [0.92, 2.12], (P = 0.11); (RR=1.20 [0.98, 1.49], (P = 0.08); (RR=0.95 [0.66, 1.37], (P = 0.79).; respectively).Conclusion: Compared with triple antithrombotic therapy, double antithrombotic therapy is associated with lower bleeding risks, including minor and major bleeding, but the incidence of efficacy endpoints was similar between both groups.

Triple Antithrombotic Therapy

Background: Triple antithrombotic therapy is used in patients who require systemic anticoagulation and undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) requiring dual antiplatelet therapy. Bleeding with this combination is significant; however, few studies have described outcomes with the use of newer oral P2Y12 inhibitors in this setting. Objectives: We aimed to compare outcomes among patients prescribed triple therapy with prasugrel or ticagrelor compared to triple therapy with clopidogrel in patients who underwent PCI and required warfarin. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 168 patients who received either prasugrel (n = 32) or ticagrelor (n = 10) and were matched (1:3) to those who received clopidogrel (n = 126) at the time of discharge from the index PCI visit. Matching was performed based on age ±10 years, sex, and indication for PCI. The primary outcome was the incidence of any bleeding during the 12-month follow-up. We also evaluated major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Results: Patient baseline characteristics were similar between groups. There was a significant excess of bleeding in patients who received prasugrel or ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel as part of triple therapy (28.6% vs 12.7%; odds ratio, 3.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.38-8.34). No differences were seen between groups in MACCEs. Conclusions: The use of prasugrel or ticagrelor as part of triple antithrombotic therapy among patients who underwent PCI and received warfarin was associated with significantly more bleeding compared to patients who received clopidogrel. Therefore, higher potency P2Y12 inhibitors should be used cautiously in these patients.

The Mean

Background: The treatment of LMCAD has shifted from coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, data on long-term outcomes of PCI for LMCA disease, especially in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains limited and conicting. This study aims to nd the association of the immediate and 4-year mortality in ACS patients with LMCA disease treated by PCI based on ejection fractions at admission. Methods: A retrospective analytical study was conducted. Patients were divided at admission into those with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and those with preserved ejection fraction. Results: Forty (58.8%) of the patients presented with preserved EF. The mean age of the patients was 71.6±7.1 years. The mean LVEF of the preserved group was 61.6±4.3% and signicantly higher than that of the reduced group. Age and cardiovascular risk factor prole was similar between the two groups. Patients with reduced ejection fraction had signicantly higher levels of serum creatinine and signicantly lower levels of Hb and HDL. Mean hospital stay was signicantly longer for patients with preserved EF. In-hospital deaths were also similar between the two groups. The reduced EF group had a signicantly higher allcause mortality in the 4-year follow-up period. The mean years of follow-up for all participants was 4.2±1.3 years. Conclusion: It was seen that in patients presenting with ACS and undergoing PCI due to LMCAD, LVEF at admission, singly and in in multivariate regression is an important predictor of in hospital and 4-year mortality
