Background: The clinical benefits of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy in Asians remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of pharmacogenomic antiplatelet therapy in Chinese patients.Methods: Patients with acute coronary syndrome planning to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention were eligible for this study and were randomly divided into a genotype-guided treatment (GT) group and routine treatment (RT) group, with a ratio of 2:1. Patients in the GT group underwent CYP2C19 genotyping (*2 and *3 alleles), and the results were considered in selecting P2Y12 receptor inhibitors. Patients in the RT group were treated with P2Y12 receptor inhibitors according to their clinical characteristics. The primary endpoint was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events (MACCE). The secondary endpoint was significant bleeding events.Results: Finally, 301 patients were enrolled; 75.1% were men and the mean age was 59.7 ± 9.8 years. In total, 281 patients completed the follow-up procedure. The primary endpoint occurred in 16 patients, 6 patients in the GT group and 10 in the RT group. The GT group showed lower MACCE rates than the RT group (6/189 vs. 10/92, 3.2 vs. 10.9%, hazard ratio: 0.281, 95% confidence interval: 0.102–0.773, P = 0.009). There was no statistically difference in significant bleeding events between the GT and RT groups (4.2 vs. 3.3%, hazard ratio: 1.315, 95% confidence interval: 0.349–4.956, P = 0.685).Conclusion: Personalized antiplatelet therapy that is based on CYP2C19 genotypes could decrease MACCE within a 12-month period in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.Clinical Trial Registration:http://www.chictr.org.cn, identifier: ChiCTR2000034352.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the cost–effectiveness of CYP2C19 loss-of-function(LOF) allele-guided antiplatelet therapy compared with the universal use of clopidogrel or ticagrelor among Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: A two-part cost–effectiveness model comprising of a 1-year decision tree and a long-term Markov model was utilized to simulate outcomes of three treatment strategies: universal use of clopidogrel (75 mg daily) or universal use of ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily for all patients and CYP2C19 LOF-guided therapy (LOF allele carriers receiving ticagrelor, LOF allele noncarriers receiving clopidogrel). Model outcomes included quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) gained, direct medical costs and incremental cost–effectiveness ratios (ICERs). ICERs less than one-time gross domestic product per capita in China 59,660 yuan/QALY were considered cost–effective. Results: Base-case analysis showed ‘universal ticagrelor use’ was cost–effective for an ICER of 33,875 yuan per QALY gained compared with ‘universal clopidogrel use’ of which gained a 1.6932 QALYs at lowest life-long cost of 2450 yuan. CYP2C19 LOF-guided therapy had an effectiveness of 1.6975 QALYs at a cost of 2812 yuan, for an ICER of 84,118 yuan per QALY gained relative to ‘universal clopidogrel use’. Sensitivity analysis demonstrated that base-case results were significantly affected by five factors: the risk ratio of ‘non-fatal myocardial infarction’, ‘non-fatal stroke’ and ‘cardiovascular death’ in ticagrelor versus clopidogrel and the annual costs of clopidogrel and ticagrelor. According to the results of Monte Carlo simulation, when willing to pay is about 32,000 yuan, patients willing to receive clopidogrel or ticagrelor are approximately equal. Conclusion: Optimal antiplatelet treatment is affected by lots of factors. The results of our study demonstrated that ‘universal ticagrelor use’ was cost–effective compared with ‘universal clopidogrel use’ for Chinese acute coronary syndrome patients with percutaneous coronary intervention.

The possibilities of P2Y12 receptor inhibitors application in the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are discussed in the article. The results of 4 registries in which a comparative analysis of the efficacy and safety of prasugrel with clopidogrel or ticagrelor was performed, as well as of all 3 P2Y12-receptor inhibitors among themselves, are considered in detail. The feasibility of replacing clopidogrel to prasugrel during the inpatient treatment of patients with ACS and PCI was evaluated additionally in the MULTIPRAC registry. The results of the registries demonstrate that the use of prasugrel in patients with ACS and PCI is associated with a significant reduction in the risk of ischemic complications and mortality with an acceptable risk of bleeding. At the same time, prasugrel was more effective and safer than clopidogrel and at least was non-inferior to ticagrelor, and according to some registries, even surpasses it in a number of indicators.
