Current Antithrombotic Treatments for Cardiovascular Diseases: A Comprehensive Review.

ABSTRACT: Antithrombotic therapies (ATT) play a pivotal role in the management of cardiovascular diseases, aiming to prevent ischemic events while maintaining a delicate balance with the patient's bleeding risk. Typically, ATT can be classified into antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapies. Their application spans a broad spectrum of cardiovascular conditions, ranging from ischemic heart disease to atrial fibrillation, encompassing venous thromboembolisms and innovative structural interventional cardiology procedures. The global burden of cardiovascular diseases is steadily increasing, often giving rise to overlapping clinical presentations. Accordingly, the adoption of combined pharmacological approaches becomes imperative, potentially disrupting the delicate equilibrium between ischemic and bleeding risk, thus leading to nuanced pharmacotherapeutic pathways. In this context, contemporary investigations strive to identify a convergence point that optimizes the duration of medical therapy while addressing the need for antithrombotic effects, especially in the context of ischemic heart disease. This review aims to comprehensively revisit the main antithrombotic strategies in cardiovascular diseases, with the intention of enhancing a systematic approach which is key for the effective clinical management of these patients. Also, the review will examine the most impactful studies that have established the groundwork for current scientific evidence, with acknowledgement of special populations. Finally, we will cast a gaze into the future of this dynamic and evolving research field, exploring forthcoming perspectives and advancements.

Project description:Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a major issue in aging patients with hemophilia (PWHs). Antithrombotic agents are widely used in the general population for CVD treatment, but this recommendation is not fully applicable to PWHs. To improve treatment strategies, a prospective case-control study (COCHE) that analyzed CVD management and follow-up (2 years/patient) in PWHs was performed in France from 2011 to 2018. In total, 68 PWHs (median age: 65 years [39-89]; 48 mild, 10 moderate, and 10 severe hemophilia) were included (n = 50 with acute coronary syndrome, n = 17 with atrial fibrillation, n = 1 with both). They were matched with 68 control PWHs without antithrombotic treatment. In our series, bleeding was significantly influenced by (1) hemophilia severity, with a mean annualized bleeding ratio significantly higher in COCHE patients than in controls with basal clotting factor level up to 20%, (2) antihemorrhagic regimen (on-demand vs. prophylaxis) in severe (hazard ratio [HR] = 16.69 [95% confidence interval, CI: 8.2-47.26]; p < 0.0001) and moderate hemophilia (HR = 42.43 [95% CI: 1.86-966.1]; p = 0.0028), (3) type of antithrombotic treatment in mild hemophilia, with a significantly higher risk of bleeding in COCHE patients than in controls for dual-pathway therapy (HR = 15.64 [95% CI: 1.57-115.8]; p = 0.019), anticoagulant drugs alone (HR = 9.91 [95% CI: 1.34-73.47]; p = 0.0248), dual antiplatelet therapy (HR = 5.31 [95% CI: 1.23-22.92]; p = 0.0252), and single antiplatelet therapy (HR = 3.76 [95% CI: 1.13-12.55]; p = 0.0313); and (4) HAS-BLED score ≥3 (odds ratio [OR] = 33 [95% CI: 1.43-761.2]; p = 0.0065). Gastrointestinal bleeding was also significantly higher in COCHE patients than in controls (OR = 15 [95% CI: 1.84-268]; p = 0.0141). The COCHE study confirmed that antithrombotic treatments in PWHs are associated with increased bleeding rates in function of hemophilia-specific factors and also of known factors in the general population.
