    Abstract: Safety and efficacy of clopidogrel monotherapy after very short dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is uncertain in patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: We conducted a post hoc subgroup analysis based on the complexity of PCI in the STOPDAPT-2 trial (Short and Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy-2), which randomly compared 1-month DAPT followed by clopidogrel monotherapy with 12-month DAPT after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent implantation. Complex PCI was defined as any of the following: 3 vessels treated, ≥3 stents implanted, ≥3 lesions treated, bifurcation with 2 stents, 〉 60 mm total stent lengths, and target of chronic total occlusion. The primary end point was the composite of cardiovascular (cardiovascular death/myocardial infarction/definite stent thrombosis/stroke) and bleeding (TIMI [Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction] major/minor) end points. The major secondary end points were the cardiovascular and bleeding end points. Results: Among the 3009 study patients, there were 509 patients (16.9%) with complex PCI (1-month DAPT: N=245, and 12-month DAPT: N=264) and 2500 patients (83.1%) without complex PCI (1-month DAPT: N=1255, and 12-month DAPT: N=1245). There were no significant interactions between the complexity of PCI and the effects of 1-month DAPT versus 12-month DAPT on the primary end point (complex PCI: 1.67% versus 5.32%, hazard ratio, 0.30 [95% CI, 0.10–0.92], P =0.04, and noncomplex PCI: 2.50% versus 3.35%, hazard ratio, 0.75 [95% CI, 0.47–1.20], P =0.23; P interaction =0.14), and on the major secondary cardiovascular end point (complex PCI: 1.67% versus 3.04%, hazard ratio, 0.54 [95% CI, 0.16–1.79], P =0.31, and noncomplex PCI: 2.02% versus 2.39%, hazard ratio, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.50–1.47], P =0.58; P interaction =0.49). The cumulative 1-year incidence of the major secondary bleeding end point was significantly lower in the 1-month DAPT group than in the 12-month DAPT group regardless of the complexity of PCI (complex PCI: 0% versus 2.29%, log-rank P =0.02, and noncomplex PCI: 0.48% versus 1.38%, log-rank P =0.02). Conclusions: The effects of clopidogrel monotherapy after 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT for the primary and major secondary end points were comparable in complex PCI and noncomplex PCI without significant interactions.

    Abstract: The benefit of clopidogrel monotherapy after 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) compared with 12-month DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel was demonstrated in the STOPDAPT-2 (Short and Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Everolimus-Eluting Cobalt-Chromium Stent-2), but not in the STOPDAPT-2 acute coronary syndrome (ACS); however, both trials were underpowered based on the actual event rates. Methods: We obtained the prespecified pooled population of 5997 patients as the STOPDAPT-2 total cohort (STOPDAPT-2: N=3009/STOPDAPT-2 ACS: N=2988; ACS: N=4136/chronic coronary syndrome [CCS]: N=1861), comprising 2993 patients assigned to 1-month DAPT followed by clopidogrel monotherapy, and 3004 patients assigned to 12-month DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel after percutaneous coronary intervention. The primary end point was the composite of cardiovascular (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or any stroke) or bleeding (Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction major/minor) end points at 1 year. Results: One-month DAPT was noninferior to 12-month DAPT for the primary end point (2.84% versus 3.04%; hazard ratio [HR], 0.94 [95% CI, 0.70–1.27] ; P noninferiority =0.001; P superiority =0.68). There was no significant risk-difference for the cardiovascular end point between the 1- and 12-month DAPT groups (2.40% versus 1.97%; HR, 1.24 [95% CI, 0.88–1.75]; P noninferiority =0.14; P superiority =0.23). There was a lower risk of the bleeding end point with 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT (0.50% versus 1.31%; HR, 0.38 [95% CI, 0.21–0.70]; P superiority =0.002). One-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT was associated with a lower risk for major bleeding regardless of ACS or CCS (ACS: HR, 0.46 [95% CI, 0.23–0.94]; P =0.03, and CCS: HR, 0.26 [95% CI, 0.09–0.79]; P =0.02; P interaction =0.40), while it was associated with a numerical increase in cardiovascular events in ACS patients, but not in CCS patients, although not statistically significant and without interaction (ACS: HR, 1.50 [95% CI, 0.99–2.27]; P =0.053, and CCS: HR, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.38–1.45]; P =0.39; P interaction =0.08). Conclusions: Clopidogrel monotherapy after 1-month DAPT compared with 12-month DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel had a benefit in reducing major bleeding events without being associated with increase in cardiovascular events.

    Abstract: Despite recommendations in the guidelines and consensus documents, there has been no randomized controlled trial evaluating oral anticoagulation (OAC) alone without antiplatelet therapy (APT) in patients with atrial fibrillation and stable coronary artery disease beyond 1 year after coronary stenting. Methods: This study was a prospective, multicenter, open-label, noninferiority trial comparing OAC alone to combined OAC and single APT among patients with atrial fibrillation beyond 1 year after stenting in a 1:1 randomization fashion. The primary end point was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or systemic embolism. The major secondary end point was a composite of the primary end point or major bleeding according to the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis classification. Although the trial was designed to enroll 2000 patients during 12 months, enrollment was prematurely terminated after enrolling 696 patients in 38 months. Results: Mean age was 75.0±7.6 years, and 85.2% of patients were men. OAC was warfarin in 75.2% and direct oral anticoagulants in 24.8% of patients. The mean CHADS 2 score was 2.5±1.2. During a median follow-up interval of 2.5 years, the primary end point occurred in 54 patients (15.7%) in the OAC-alone group and in 47 patients (13.6%) in the combined OAC and APT group (hazard ratio, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.79–1.72; P =0.20 for noninferiority, P =0.45 for superiority). The major secondary end point occurred in 67 patients (19.5%) in the OAC-alone group and in 67 patients (19.4%) in the combined OAC and APT group (hazard ratio, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.71–1.39; P =0.016 for noninferiority, P =0.96 for superiority). Myocardial infarction occurred in 8 (2.3%) and 4 (1.2%) patients, whereas stroke or systemic embolism occurred in 13 (3.8%) and 19 (5.5%) patients, respectively. Major bleeding occurred in 27 (7.8%) and 36 (10.4%) patients, respectively. Conclusions: This randomized trial did not establish noninferiority of OAC alone to combined OAC and APT in patients with atrial fibrillation and stable coronary artery disease beyond 1 year after stenting. Because patient enrollment was prematurely terminated, the study was underpowered and inconclusive. Future larger studies are required to establish the optimal antithrombotic regimen in this population. Clinical Trial Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov .

    Abstract: Background: The prognostic implications of very low body mass index (BMI) values remain unclear in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). This study aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of BMI classification based on the World Health Organization criteria in patients with ADHF. Methods and Results: Using data from 4056 consecutive patients with ADHF hospitalized in 19 participating hospitals in Japan between October 2014 and March 2016, we analyzed 3509 patients with available BMI data at discharge. The patients were divided into five groups; (1) Severely underweight: BMI 〈 16 kg/m 2 , (2) Underweight: BMI≥16 kg/m 2 and 〈 18.5 kg/m 2 , (3) Normal weight: BMI≥18.5 kg/m 2 and 〈 25 kg/m 2 , (4) Overweight: BMI≥25 kg/m 2 and 〈 30 kg/m 2 (5) Obese: BMI≥30 kg/m 2 . The primary outcome measure was all-cause death. The median follow-up duration was 471 days, with 96.4% follow up at 1-year. The cumulative 1-year incidence of all-cause death was higher in underweight groups, and lower in overweight groups (Severely underweight: 36.3%, Underweight: 23.9%, Normal weight: 14.4%, Overweight: 7.9%, and Obese: 9.0%, P 〈 0.001). After adjusting confounders, the excess mortality risk remained significant in the severely underweight group (HR, 2.38; 95%CI, 1.88-3.02; P 〈 0.001), and in the underweight group (HR, 1.33; 95%CI, 1.10-1.62; P=0.003) relative to the normal weight group, while the lower mortality risk was no longer significant in the overweight group (HR, 0.76; 95%CI, 0.57-1.01; P=0.06), and in the obese group (HR, 0.89; 95%CI, 0.53-1.50; P=0.66). Conclusions: Lower BMI, not obesity, was associated with a higher risk for all-cause death after discharge in patients with ADHF.

    Abstract: Heart failure (HF) is a known risk factor for ischemic stroke, but data regarding ischemic stroke during hospitalization for acute decompensated HF (ADHF) are limited. Methods and Results We analyzed the data from a multicenter registry (Kyoto Congestive Heart Failure [KCHF] Registry) that enrolled 4056 consecutive patients with ADHF in Japan (mean age, 78 years; men, 2238 patients [55%] ; acute coronary syndrome [ACS], 239 patients [5.9%] ). We investigated the incidence and predictors of ischemic stroke during hospitalization for ADHF. During the hospitalization, 63 patients (1.6%) developed ischemic stroke. The median interval from admission to the onset of ischemic stroke was 7 [interquartile range: 2–14] days, and the most common underlying cause was cardioembolism (64%). Men (OR, 1.87; 95%CI, 1.11–3.24), ACS (OR, 2.31; 95%CI, 1.01–4.93), absence of prior HF hospitalization (OR, 2.21; 95%CI, 1.24– 4.21), and high B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP)/N‐terminal proBNP (NT‐proBNP) levels (above the median) at admission (OR, 3.15; 95%CI, 1.84–5.60) were independently associated with ischemic stroke. In patients without ACS, the independent risk factors for ischemic stroke were fully consistent with those in the main analysis. Higher quartiles of BNP/NT‐proBNP levels were significantly associated with higher incidence of ischemic stroke ( P for trend, 〈 0.001). Patients with ischemic stroke showed higher in‐hospital mortality, longer length of hospital stay, and poorer functional status at discharge. Conclusions During hospitalization for ADHF, 1.6% of the patients developed ischemic stroke. Men, ACS, absence of prior HF hospitalization, and high BNP/NT‐proBNP levels at admission were independently associated with ischemic stroke.

    Abstract: The effects of aspirin‐free strategy on bleeding and cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with oral anticoagulation (OAC) have not been fully elucidated. Methods and Results We conducted the prespecified subgroup analysis based on the use of OAC, including vitamin K antagonist and direct oral anticoagulants, within 7 days before percutaneous coronary intervention in the STOPDAPT‐3 (Short and Optimal Duration of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy‐3) trial, which randomly compared prasugrel monotherapy (2984 patients) to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with prasugrel and aspirin (2982 patients) in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. The coprimary end points were major bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 3 or 5) and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) at 1 month. Among 5966 study patients, there were 530 patients (8.9%) with OAC (no aspirin: N=248, and DAPT: N=282) and 5436 patients (91.1%) without OAC (no aspirin: N=2736, and DAPT: N=2700). Regardless of the use of OAC, the effects of no aspirin compared with DAPT were not significant for the bleeding end point (OAC: 4.45% and 4.27%, hazard ratio [HR], 1.04 [95% CI, 0.46–2.35] ; no‐OAC: 4.47% and 4.75%, HR, 0.94 [95% CI, 0.73–1.20]; P for interaction=0.82), and for the cardiovascular end point (OAC: 4.84% and 3.20%, HR, 1.53 [95% CI, 0.64–3.62]; no‐OAC: 4.06% and 3.74%, HR, 1.09 [95% CI 0.83–1.42] ; P for interaction =0.46). Conclusions The no‐aspirin strategy compared with the DAPT strategy failed to reduce major bleeding events irrespective of the use of OAC. There was a numerical excess risk of the no‐aspirin strategy relative to the DAPT strategy for cardiovascular events in patients with OAC.

    Abstract: Background: The impact of second-generation drug-eluting stents (G2-DES) implantation as compared with first-generation drug-eluting stents (G1-DES) for calcified coronary lesion has not been yet adequately addressed. Methods: This pooled analysis compared 2-year clinical outcomes between G1- and G2-DES according to the presence or absence of coronary lesion calcification, using individual patient-level data from 2 large-scale prospective multicenter randomized trials, RESET (Randomized Evaluation of Sirolimus-Eluting Versus Everolimus-Eluting Stent Trial) and NEXT (Biodegradable Polymer Biolimus-Eluting Stent Versus Durable Polymer Everolimus-Eluting Stent). Among 4583 patients enrolled in the 2 trials, G1-DES (sirolimus-eluting stent) and G2-DES (everolimus- or biolimus-eluting stent) were used in 299 and 1033 patients, respectively, in the Calc stratum (at least 1 moderate to severe calcification), and 1208 and 3550 patients, respectively, in the Non-calc stratum (no or mild calcification). Coronary calcification was assessed by an independent angiographic core laboratory. The primary endpoint of the study was clinically driven target-lesion revascularization (TLR) at 2-year follow-up. Result: In the Calc stratum, the cumulative incidence of clinically driven TLR was significantly lower in G2-DES than in G1-DES (5.7% vs. 9.4%, P=0.03), while it was not significantly different between G1- and G2-DES in the Non-calc stratum (3.6% vs. 4.2%, P=0.35). Cumulative incidence of definite stent thrombosis was not significantly different between G1- and G2-DES in both strata (Calc stratum, 0.6% vs. 1.0%, P=0.44, and Non-calc stratum, 0.2% vs. 0.2%, P=0.98). After adjusting for confounders, the lower risk of G2-DES relative to G1-DES for clinically driven TLR remained significant in the Calc stratum (hazard ratio [HR], 0.55; 95% confidence interval [CI] , 0.35-0.87; P=0.01). There was significant interaction between the generation of DES and presence or absence of calcification (P interaction=0.01). Conclusion: G2-DES as compared with G1-DES was associated with lower risk for clinically driven TLR in patients with calcified coronary lesions.

    Abstract: Bleeding rates on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) within 1 month after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain high in clinical practice, particularly in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk. Aspirin-free strategy might result in lower bleeding early after PCI without increasing cardiovascular events, but its efficacy and safety have not yet been proven in randomized trials. METHODS: We randomly assigned 6002 patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk just before PCI either to prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) monotherapy or to DAPT with aspirin (81–100 mg/day) and prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) after loading of 20 mg of prasugrel in both groups. The coprimary end points were major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 3 or 5) for superiority and cardiovascular events (a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, or ischemic stroke) for noninferiority with a relative 50% margin. RESULTS: The full analysis set population consisted of 5966 patients (no-aspirin group, 2984 patients; DAPT group, 2982 patients; age, 71.6±11.7 years; men, 76.6%; acute coronary syndrome, 75.0%). Within 7 days before randomization, aspirin alone, aspirin with P2Y12 inhibitor, oral anticoagulants, and intravenous heparin infusion were given in 21.3%, 6.4%, 8.9%, and 24.5%, respectively. Adherence to the protocol-specified antiplatelet therapy was 88% in both groups at 1 month. At 1 month, the no-aspirin group was not superior to the DAPT group for the coprimary bleeding end point (4.47% and 4.71%; hazard ratio, 0.95 [95% CI, 0.75–1.20]; P superiority =0.66). The no-aspirin group was noninferior to the DAPT group for the coprimary cardiovascular end point (4.12% and 3.69%; hazard ratio, 1.12 [95% CI, 0.87–1.45]; P non inferiority =0.01). There was no difference in net adverse clinical outcomes and each component of coprimary cardiovascular end point. There was an excess of any unplanned coronary revascularization (1.05% and 0.57%; hazard ratio, 1.83 [95%CI, 1.01–3.30]) and subacute definite or probable stent thrombosis (0.58% and 0.17%; hazard ratio, 3.40 [95% CI, 1.26–9.23] ) in the no-aspirin group compared with the DAPT group. CONCLUSIONS: The aspirin-free strategy using low-dose prasugrel compared with the DAPT strategy failed to attest superiority for major bleeding within 1 month after PCI but was noninferior for cardiovascular events within 1 month after PCI. However, the aspirin-free strategy was associated with a signal suggesting an excess of coronary events. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT04609111.
