Ticagrelor is an oral, reversibly-binding, direct-acting P2Y12 receptor antagonist used clinically for the prevention of atherothrombotic events in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Guideline recommendations on the use of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) have been formulated that ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily plus aspirin in preference to clopidogrel 75mg daily plus aspirin for patients who have an ACS with or without ST-segment elevation. These recommendations are primarily based on large, randomized, Phase III clinical trials. However, few East Asian patients (or those of East Asian descent) have been included in these trials to assess the use of these drugs. In addition, a growing body of data supported that East Asian might have different adverse event profiles (thrombophilia and bleeding) and "therapeutic window" compared with white subjects. Furthermore, "East Asian paradox" phenomenon has been described that East Asian patients have a higher prevalence of platelet reactivity during DAPT, but an ischaemic event rate following PCI or ACS is similar or even lower than white patients. Therefore, the antiplatelet treatment strategy that is most appropriate for East Asian patients is increasingly urgent. Therefore, we performed the current study to observe the different effects of low-dose ticagrelor (45 mg twice daily), conventional-dose ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) and clopidogrel (75mg once daily) on high platelet reactivity (HPR) and IPA, and investigated the safety and efficacy of low-dose ticagrelor further in Chinese patients with non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS).
This study is to investigate the relationship between staging of retinal artery lesions and the prognosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in a Chinese population. All the patients were divided into four groups according retinal artery lesions.The endpoints were main adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke after 3 to 6 years of follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Apixaban is safer than a Vitamin K Antagonist given for 6 months in terms of bleeding in patients with an irregular heart beat (atrial fibrillation) and a recent heart attack or a recent procedure to open up a blood vessel in the heart. All patients would also be taking a class of medicines called P2Y12 inhibitors (such as clopidogrel/Plavix) and be treated for up to 6 months. The primary focus will be a comparison of the bleeding risk of Apixaban, with or without aspirin, versus a Vitamin K antagonist, such as warfarin, with or without aspirin.
The TREASURE observational study is designed to address the need to understand the usage pattern of Ticagrelor in real life scenario in large number of ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) patients in India. The aim of this national study is to understand the usage pattern (including the duration of treatment) of Ticagrelor in various ACS patient population undergoing PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention), CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft) or medical management in a real-life setting in India.
Current patterns of P2Y12 receptor inhibitor use provide an excellent opportunity to test the impact of copayment reduction on clinician choice of medication, patient adherence, and clinical outcomes. The ARTEMIS trial is a practical multicenter, cluster- randomized clinical trial that will assess the impact of copayment reduction by equalizing the copayment of clopidogrel and ticagrelor. ARTEMIS will assess prescribing patterns, patient medication adherence, and clinical outcomes up to one year. We hypothesize that reducing out--of--pocket cost for P2Y12 receptor inhibitor will lead to improved adherence. Additionally, copayment reduction of both generic and brand antiplatelet agents may lead to a reduction in MACE risk. This is in part due to greater adherence to an evidence--based secondary prevention medication. Additionally the reduction in MACE may reflect greater selection of a more potent antiplatelet agent that has been shown to reduce MACE in randomized clinical trials, as provider choice of antiplatelet therapy will be primarily driven by risk- benefit assessment rather than the cost burden to the patient.
Our goal is to examine sub lingual versus traditional oral administration of ticagrelor in ACS/non ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) patients on platelet reactivity.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Orsiro Sirolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System in the treatment of subjects with up to three native de novo or restenotic (standard PTCA only) coronary artery lesions compared to the Xience coronary stent system.
Recently, positron emission tomography(PET) using 18F-Sodium fluoride (NaF) showed promising results for detecting vulnerable plaques in some pilot studies. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-NaF PET for non-invasively detecting vulnerable plaque, diagnosed by optical coherence tomography (OCT).
The purpose of this study is to describe the characteristics, evaluation, management and outcomes of acute chest pain, and to provide opportunities for future initiatives to improve the emergency care for patients experiencing acute chest pain in China.
