Protease-activated receptor-mediated platelet aggregation in acute coronary syndrome patients on potent P2Y12 inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Background:Despite the increasing use of potent P2Y12 inhibitors, further atherothrombotic events still impair the prognosis of many acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. This may in part be attributable to intact platelet aggregation via the human thrombin receptors protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 and PAR-4. Objective:We studied PAR mediated platelet aggregation in ACS patients following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation in a cross-sectional study. Methods:Platelet aggregation to ADP as well as to the PAR-1 agonist SFLLRN and the PAR-4 agonist AYPGKF was assessed by multiple electrode aggregometry in 194 ACS patients on dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and either prasugrel (n = 114) or ticagrelor (n = 80) 3 days after PCI. Results:Based on the consensus cutoff value, high on-treatment residual platelet reactivity to ADP (HRPR ADP) was observed in only 2 prasugrel-treated patients. Both patients with HRPR ADP had also a normal response to SFLLRN and AYPGKF. Among the 112 prasugrel-treated patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition, 50 patients (45%) still had a normal response to SFLLRN, and 70 patients (63%) still had a normal response to AYPGKF. Among the 80 ticagrelor-treated patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition, 25 patients (31%) still had a normal response to SFLLRN, and 50 (63%) still had a normal response to AYPGKF. Conclusion:Normal platelet aggregation via PAR-1 and PAR-4 is preserved in many patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition by prasugrel and ticagrelor. The present findings may at least in part explain adverse ischemic events despite potent P2Y12 inhibition.

Project description:BackgroundEast Asian patients receiving treatment with the potent P2Y12 inhibitors prasugrel or ticagrelor experience more potent platelet inhibition than with clopidogrel.MethodsThis study investigated differences in OPR rates with reduced doses of prasugrel (n = 38) or ticagrelor (n = 40) for maintenance therapy in 118 Korean ACS patients who had undergone PCI, in comparison to conventional-dose clopidogrel (n = 40). We assessed drug responses at one- and three-months post-PCI with VerifyNow and multiple electrode aggregometry assays.ResultsAt the one-month period, patients receiving standard-dose prasugrel or ticagrelor had lower platelet reactivity as determined by the three assays than those receiving the conventional dose of clopidogrel (VN: p = 0.000; MEA: p = 0.000; LTA: p = 0.000). At the 3-month point, platelet reactivity was lower in those receiving reduced-dose prasugrel or ticagrelor than the clopidogrel-treated patients (VN: p = 0.000; MEA: p = 0.012; LTA: p = 0.002). Prasugrel resulted in significantly lower platelet inhibition than ticagrelor as determined by VN and LTA (VN: p = 0.000; LTA: p = 0.003). At three months, there was a significant overall difference in OPR among the three groups when measured by VN (p < 0.001), but not when measured by MEA (p = 0.596). OPR in the reduced-dose prasugrel group was not significantly different to the clopidogrel group at three months (VN: p = 0.180; MEA: p = 0.711). OPR in the reduced-dose ticagrelor group was similar to clopidogrel as determined by MEA at three months, but was different when assessed by VN (VN: p = 0.000; MEA: p = 0.540). Compared to standard-dose, the reduced-dose prasugrel OPR rate was significantly increased (VN: p = 0.008; MEA: p = 0.020).ConclusionsOPR values for reduced-dose prasugrel and conventional-dose clopidogrel at three months were similar but higher than for reduced-dose ticagrelor as determined by VN, but no differences were noted by MEA. The MEA assay might have less sensitivity and consistency than the VN assay. Further studies are needed to explore this discrepancy.
