Implementing a pharmacogenetic-driven algorithm to guide dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Caribbean Hispanics: protocol for a non-randomised clinical trial.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Minority populations in the USA are disproportionately affected by cardiovascular conditions. Reduced responsiveness to clopidogrel among carriers of CYP2C19 variants has been reported in patients with either coronary artery disease (CAD) or acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous studies have evaluated CYP2C19 genotyping-guided antiplatelet therapy in selected populations; however, this has yet to be tested among Hispanics. Given the paucity of clinical research on CYP2C19 and antiplatelet clinical outcomes in Hispanics, our study will test the safety and efficacy of a genetic-driven treatment algorithm to guide dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Caribbean Hispanics. METHODS AND ANALYSIS:This is a multicentre, prospective, non-randomised clinical trial that proposes an assessment of pharmacogenomic-guided DAPT in post-PCI Caribbean Hispanic patients with ACS or CAD. We will recruit 250 patients to be compared with a matched non-concurrent cohort of 250 clopidogrel-treated patients (standard-of-care). Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) such as all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, coronary revascularisation, stent thrombosis and bleedings over 6 months will be the study endpoints. Among the recruited, high-risk patients will be escalated to ticagrelor and low-risk patients will remain on clopidogrel. The primary objective is to determine whether genetic-guided therapy is superior to standard of care. The secondary objective will determine if clopidogrel treatment in low-risk patients is not associated with a higher rate of MACEs compared with escalated antiplatelet therapy in high-risk patients. Patients will be enrolled up to the group's completion. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION:Approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Board of the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus (protocol # A4070417). The study will be carried out in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki and International Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice Guidelines. Findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and controlled access to experimental data will be available. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER:NCT03419325; Pre-results.

Project description:BackgroundThe prevalence and burden of coronary heart disease (CHD) has increased substantially in India, accompanied with increasing need for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Although a large government-funded insurance scheme in Maharashtra, India covered the cost of PCI for low-income patients, the high cost of post-PCI treatment, especially Dual Antiplatelet Therapy (DAPT), still caused many patients to prematurely discontinue the secondary prevention. Our study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of DAPT adherence on all-cause mortality among post-PCI patients and explore the potential determinants of DAPT adherence in India.MethodWe collected clinical data of 4,595 patients undergoing PCI in 110 participating medical centers in Maharashtra, India from 2012 to 2015 by electronic medical records. We surveyed 2527 adult patients who were under the insurance scheme by telephone interview, usually between 6 to 12 months after their revascularization. Patients reporting DAPT continuation in the telephone survey were categorized as DAPT adherence. The outcome of the interest was all-cause mortality within 1 year after the index procedure. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard (PH) model with adjustment of potential confounders and standardization were used to explore the effects of DAPT adherence on all-cause mortality. We further used a multivariate logistic model to investigate the potential determinants of DAPT adherence.ResultsOut of the 2527 patients interviewed, 2064 patients were included in the analysis, of whom 470 (22.8%) discontinued DAPT prematurely within a year. After adjustment for baseline confounders, DAPT adherence was associated with lower one-year all-cause mortality compared to premature discontinuation (less than 6-month), with an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 0.52 (95% Confidence Interval (CI) = (0.36, 0.67)). We also found younger patients (OR per year was 0.99 (0.97, 1.00)) and male (vs. female, OR of 1.30 (0.99, 1.70)) had higher adherence to DAPT at one year as did patients taking antihypertensive medications (vs. non medication, OR of 1.57 (1.25, 1.95)).ConclusionThese findings suggest the protective effects of DAPT adherence on 1-year mortality among post-PCI patients in a low-income setting and indicate younger age, male sex and use of other preventive treatments were predictors of higher DAPT adherence.

Project description:BackgroundThienopyridine plus aspirin beyond 1 year after coronary stenting reduces myocardial infarction (MI) risk and increases bleeding risk in comparison with aspirin alone. The hazard associated with late thienopyridine discontinuation and risk factors for MI after discontinuation are poorly defined.MethodsIn the DAPT Study (Dual Antiplatelet Therapy), after percutaneous coronary intervention and 12 months of thienopyridine (clopidogrel or prasugrel) plus aspirin, eligible patients remained on aspirin and were randomly assigned to continued thienopyridine versus placebo for 18 months. At 30 months, patients stopped the study drug and were observed for 3 months. Cumulative incidence of MI was assessed over 3 months after randomization (months 12-15) and 3 months after study drug discontinuation (months 30-33). The MI hazard for each of these periods was assessed across randomized treatment arms and by DAPT score values <2 or ≥2.ResultsAmong the 11 648 randomly assigned patients, the monthly cumulative incidence of MI was lower with continued thienopyridine versus placebo at 12 to 15 months (0.12% versus 0.37%, P<0.001, in all patients; 0.13% versus 0.27%, P=0.02, in patients not treated with paclitaxel-eluting stents), and higher at 30 to 33 months (0.30% versus 0.15%, P=0.013, in all patients; in patients without paclitaxel-eluting stents, 0.18% versus 0.17%, P=0.91). The majority of MIs in both time periods (74% and 76%) were not related to stent thrombosis. After multivariable adjustment, treatment arm independently predicted MI at months 12 to 15 (P<0.001) and 30 to 33 (P=0.011). During months 12 to 15, patients with DAPT scores <2 or ≥2 both had lower rates of MI with continued thienopyridine (MI monthly incidence 0.16% versus 0.51%, P<0.001, for scores ≥2; 0.08% versus 0.24%, P=0.012, for scores<2, interaction P=0.064).ConclusionsDiscontinuing thienopyridine after either 12 or 30 months is associated with an early increase in MI risk, mainly unrelated to stent thrombosis; the magnitude of risk is highest in the earlier time frame, and lower in patients not treated with paclitaxel-eluting stents. Although higher DAPT scores identify patients with greater absolute ischemic benefit (relative to bleeding harm) with continued thienopyridine therapy, discontinuation at 12 months increases MI hazard regardless of DAPT score group.Clinical trial registrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.
