ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after a short course of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) may balance ischemic and bleeding risks in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, it remains uncertain how different P2Y12 inhibitors used as monotherapy affect outcomes.METHODS:
Randomized controlled trials comparing P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after a short course of DAPT (≤3 months) versus 12-month DAPT in ACS were included. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). All analyses included an interaction term for the P2Y12 inhibitor used as monotherapy. Trial sequential analysis were run to explore whether the effect estimate of each outcomes may be affected by further studies.RESULTS:
Seven trials encompassing 27,284 ACS patients were included. Compared with 12-month DAPT, P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after a short course of DAPT was associated with no difference in MACE (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.76-1.12) and a significant reduction in net adverse clinical events (NACE) (OR 0.75; 95% CI 0.60-0.94), any bleeding (OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.43-0.66) and major bleeding (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.37-0.60). Significant interactions for subgroup difference between ticagrelor and clopidogrel monotherapy were found for MACE (pint=0.016), all-cause death (pint=0.042), NACE (pint=0.018), and myocardial infarction (pint=0.028). Trial sequential analysis showed conclusive evidence of improved NACE with ticagrelor, but not with clopidogrel monotherapy, compared with standard DAPT.CONCLUSIONS:
In patients with ACS, P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after short DAPT halves bleeding without increasing ischemic events compared with standard DAPT. Ticagrelor, but not clopidogrel monotherapy, reduced MACE, NACE and mortality compared with standard DAPT, supporting its use after aspirin discontinuation.
