Incidencia anual de trombosis del stent confirmadas y factores clínicos predictores en pacientes con SCA tratados con ticagrelor o prasugrel / Annual incidence of confirmed stent thrombosis and clinical predictors in patients with ACS treated with ticagrelor or prasugrel

Introducción y objetivos: Hay muy poca evidencia sobre las tasas de trombosis del stent (TS) en pacientes que reciben tratamiento antiagregante plaquetario doble (TAPD) con ticagrelor o prasugrel. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la incidencia y predictores de la TS tras un síndrome coronario agudo en pacientes que reciben TAPD con ticagrelor frente a prasugrel. Métodos: Se utilizaron datos del registro RENAMI (REgistry of New Antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute Myocardial Infarction), y se analizó en total a 4.123 pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo dados de alta con TAPD con ticagrelor o prasugrel en 11 centros de 6 países europeos. Se consideró como evento la TS confirmada en el primer año. Se realizó un análisis de riesgos competitivos mediante un modelo de regresión de Fine y Gray, siendo la muerte el evento competitivo. Resultados: Recibieron TAPD con ticagrelor 2.604 pacientes y con prasugrel, 1.519; 41 pacientes (1,10%) presentaron TS, con incidencias acumuladas similares entre ticagrelor (1,21%) y prasugrel (0,90%). Los predictores independientes de la TS fueron: la edad (sHR = 1,03; IC95%, 1,01-1,06), la elevación del segmento ST (sHR = 2,24; IC95%, 1,22-4,14), el antecedente de infarto de miocardio (sHR = 2,56; IC95%, 1,19-5,49) y la creatinina sérica (sHR = 1,29; IC95%, 1,08-1,54). Conclusiones: La TS es infrecuente en pacientes que reciben TAPD con ticagrelor y prasugrel. La edad avanzada, la elevación del segmento ST, el antecedente de infarto y la creatinina sérica son las variables que se asocian con mayor riesgo de TS

Introduction and objectives: There is little evidence on rates of stent thrombosis (ST) in patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with ticagrelor or prasugrel. The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence and predictors of ST after an acute coronary syndrome among patients receiving DAPT with ticagrelor vs prasugrel. Methods: We used data from the RENAMI registry (REgistry of New Antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute Myocardial Infarction), analyzing a total of 4123 acute coronary syndrome patients discharged with DAPT with ticagrelor or prasugrel in 11 centers in 6 European countries. The endpoint was definite ST within the first year. A competitive risk analysis was carried out using a Fine and Gray regression model, with death being the competitive event. Results: A total of 2604 patients received DAPT with ticagrelor and 1519 with prasugrel; ST occurred in 41 patients (1.10%), with a similar cumulative incidence between ticagrelor (1.21%) and prasugrel (0.90%). The independent predictors of ST were age (sHR, 1.03; 95%CI, 1.01-1.06), ST segment elevation (sHR, 2.24; 95%CI, 1.22-4.14), previous myocardial infarction (sHR, 2.56; 95%CI, 1.19-5.49), and serum creatinine (sHR, 1.29; 95%CI, 1.08-1.54). Conclusions: Stent thrombosis is infrequent in patients receiving DAPT with ticagrelor or prasugrel. The variables associated with an increased risk of ST were advanced age, ST segment elevation, previous myocardial infarction, and serum creatinine

Utilidad de la puntuación PARIS para evaluar el equilibrio isquémico-hemorrágico con ticagrelor y prasugrel tras un síndrome coronario agudo / Usefulness of the PARIS score to evaluate the ischemic-hemorrhagic net benefit with ticagrelor and prasugrel after an acute coronary syndrome

Introducción y objetivos: La puntuación PARIS permite una estratificación combinada de los riesgos isquémico y hemorrágico de los pacientes con cardiopatía isquémica tratados con stent coronario y tratamiento antiagregante plaquetario doble (TAPD). Se desconoce su utilidad en pacientes con síndrome coronario agudo (SCA) tratados con ticagrelor o prasugrel. Se investiga este aspecto en un registro internacional. Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo multicéntrico con participación voluntaria de 11 centros de 6 países europeos. Se estudio ́a 4.310 pacientes con SCA dados de alta en TAPD con ticagrelor o prasugrel. Se definío evento isquémico como trombosis de stent o infarto de miocardio espontáneo, y evento hemorrágico según BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) tipo3 o 5. Se calculó la discriminación y la calibración para ambas vertientes de la puntuación PARIS (PARISisquémico y PARIShemorrágico). El beneficio neto isquémico-hemorrágico se obtuvo mediante la diferencia entre las probabilidades predichas de eventos isqueémicos y hemorrágicos. Resultados: Durante 17,2 ± 8,3 meses, hubo 80 eventos isquémicos (el 1,9% anual) y 66 eventos hemorrágicos (el 1,6% anual). PARISisquémico y PARIShemorrágico se asociaron con el riesgo de evetos isquémicos (sHR=1,27; IC95%, 1,16-1,39) y hemorrágicos (sHR = 1,14; IC95%, 1,01-1,30) respectivamente. La discriminación de eventos isquémicos fue discreta (índice C = 0,64) y la de eventos hemorrágicos, pobre (índice C= 0,56), con buena calibración para ambos. El beneficio neto isquémico-hemorrágico resultó negativo (más eventos hemorrágicos) en pacientes con alto riesgo hemorrágico y positivo (más eventos isquémicos) en pacientes con alto riesgo isquémico. Conclusiones: En pacientes con SCA tratados con TAPD conticagrelor o prasugrel, la escala PARIS ayuda a establecer un equilibrio apropiado del riesgo isquémico-hemorrágico

Introduction and objectives: The PARIS score allows combined stratification of ischemic and hemorrhagic risk in patients with ischemic heart disease treated with coronary stenting and dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT). Its usefulness in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with ticagrelor or prasugrel is unknown. We investigated this issue in an international registry. Methods: Retrospective multicenter study with voluntary participation of 11 centers in 6 European countries. We studied 4310 patients with ACS discharged with DAPT with ticagrelor or prasugrel. Ischemic events were defined as stent thrombosis or spontaneous myocardial infarction, and hemorrhagic events as BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) type 3 or 5 bleeding. Discrimination and calibration were calculated for both PARIS scores (PARISischemic and PARIShemorrhagic). The ischemic-hemorrhagic net benefit was obtained by the difference between the predicted probabilities of ischemic and bleeding events. Results: During a period of 17.2 ± 8.3 months, there were 80 ischemic events(1.9% per year) and 66 bleeding events (1.6% per year). PARISischemic and PARIShemorrhagic scores were associated with a risk of ischemic events (sHR, 1.27; 95%CI, 1.16-1.39) and bleeding events (sHR, 1.14; 95%CI, 1.01-1.30), respectively. The discrimination for ischemic events was modest (Cindex = 0.64) and was suboptimal for hemorrhagic events (Cindex = 0.56), where as calibration was acceptable for both. The ischemic-hemorrhagic net benefit was negative (more hemorrhagic events) in patients at high hemorrhagic risk, and was positive (more ischemicevents) in patients at high ischemic risk. Conclusions: In patients with ACS treated with DAPT with ticagrelor or prasugrel, the PARIS model helps to properly evaluate the ischemic-hemorrhagic risk
