Clinical Trial Summary

Elderly patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) face a high risk of both ischemic and hemorrhagic complications necessitating antiplatelet therapy. Previous data indicate that even at a dose of 20-30 mg/day, aspirin (ASA) allows almost complete inhibition of thromboxane (TX) A2 biosynthesis in healthy volunteers. However, ASA at a dose of 30 mg/day has not been evaluated in the acute phase of myocardial infarction or among elderly patients, where it may achieve an optimal balance between bleeding risk and ischemic complications. This randomized study will include 40 patients over 65 years undergoing PCI for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). It compares a new dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategy consisting of a P2Y12 antagonist (ticagrelor) and ASA at a very low dose of 30 mg/day (n=20) against the current standard treatment (P2Y12 antagonist and ASA at a dose of 75 mg) (n=20) in the control group.
