Abbreviated or standard antiplatelet therapy after PCI in HBR patients with chronic kidney disease: a prespecified analysis from the MASTER DAPT trial

Résumé fourni par la source

BACKGROUND: Abbreviated antiplatelet therapy (APT) can reduce bleeding without increasing ischaemic harm in high bleeding risk (HBR) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The impact of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on the safety and effectiveness of abbreviated APT remains unknown. AIMS: We aimed to investigate the comparative effectiveness of abbreviated (1 month) versus standard (≥3 months) APT in HBR patients with and without CKD. METHODS: . Co-primary outcomes were net adverse clinical events (NACE; a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction [MI], stroke, and major bleeding), major adverse cardiac or cerebral events (MACCE; all-cause death, MI and stroke), and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 2, 3, or 5 bleeding at 11 months. RESULTS: NACE did not significantly differ with abbreviated and standard APT among CKD patients (hazard ratio [HR] 0.91, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.66-1.24) and non-CKD patients (HR 0.96, 95% CI: 0.73-1.27; pinteraction=0.78). Similarly, MACCE did not differ in CKD patients (HR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.64-1.27) and non-CKD patients (HR 1.09, 95% CI: 0.78-1.51; pinteraction=0.45). Abbreviated APT was associated with consistently lower BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding in both patients with CKD (HR 0.74, 95% CI: 0.52-1.07) and without it (HR 0.66, 95% CI: 0.51-0.85; pinteraction=0.59). CONCLUSIONS: Abbreviated APT was associated with similar NACE and MACCE rates and reduced bleeding compared with standard APT in HBR patients undergoing PCI, regardless of the presence or absence of CKD.
