ABSTRACT: Background
No previous studies have evaluated the effect of an aspirin-free strategy for patients undergoing staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods and results
We conducted a post hoc subgroup analysis in patients undergoing staged PCI within 1 month in STOPDAPT-3 (n=6,002), which randomly compared prasugrel monotherapy with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with acute coronary syndrome or high bleeding risk.
