Platelet Inhibition, Endothelial Function, and Clinical Outcome in Patients Presenting With ST-Segment-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Randomized to Ticagrelor Versus Prasugrel Maintenance Therapy: Long-Term Follow-Up of the REDUCE-MVI Trial.

ABSTRACT: Background Off-target properties of ticagrelor might reduce microvascular injury and improve clinical outcome in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. The REDUCE-MVI (Evaluation of Microvascular Injury in Revascularized Patients with ST-Segment-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Treated With Ticagrelor Versus Prasugrel) trial reported no benefit of ticagrelor regarding microvascular function at 1 month. We now present the follow-up data up to 1.5 years. Methods and Results We randomized 110 patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction to either ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily or prasugrel 10 mg once a day. Platelet inhibition and peripheral endothelial function measurements including calculation of the reactive hyperemia index and clinical follow-up were obtained up to 1.5 years. Major adverse clinical events and bleedings were scored. An intention to treat and a per-protocol analysis were performed. There were no between-group differences in platelet inhibition and endothelial function. At 1 year the reactive hyperemia index in the ticagrelor group was 0.66±0.26 versus 0.61±0.28 in the prasugrel group (P=0.31). Platelet inhibition was lower at 1 month versus 1 year in the total study population (61% [42%-81%] versus 83% [61%-95%]; P<0.001), and per-protocol platelet inhibition was higher in patients randomized to ticagrelor versus prasugrel at 1 year (91% [83%-97%] versus 82% [65%-92%]; P=0.002). There was an improvement in intention to treat endothelial function in patients randomized to ticagrelor (P=0.03) but not in patients randomized to prasugrel (P=0.88). Major adverse clinical events (10% versus 14%; P=0.54) and bleedings (47% versus 63%; P=0.10) were similar in the intention-to-treat analysis in both groups. Conclusions Platelet inhibition at 1 year was higher in the ticagrelor group, without an accompanying increase in bleedings. Endothelial function improved over time in ticagrelor patients, while it did not change in the prasugrel group. Clinical Trial Registration URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/.

Project description:ImportanceDual anti-platelet therapy represents standard care for treating patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Ticagrelor is a direct-acting P2Y12 inhibitor and, unlike clopidogrel and prasugrel, does not require metabolic activation.ObjectiveTo evaluate whether chewing a loading dose (LD) of ticagrelor, 180 mg, vs traditional oral administration of an equal dose enhances platelet inhibition at 30 minutes and 1 hour after LD administration in patients with STEMI.Design, setting, and participantsA randomized clinical trial was conducted in adults aged 30 to 87 years from May to October 2016 in a large tertiary care center. Analyses were intention-to-treat.InterventionsFifty patients with STEMI were randomized to either chewing an LD of ticagrelor, 180 mg, or standard oral administration of an equal dose.Main outcomes and measuresP2Y12 reaction units were evaluated using VerifyNow (Accumentrics) at baseline, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 4 hours after LD.ResultsBaseline characteristics were similar in both groups. The mean (SD) of P2Y12 reaction units in the chewing group compared with the standard group at baseline, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 4 hours after ticagrelor LD were 224 (33) vs 219 (44) (95% CI, -16.77 to 27.73; P = .26), 168 (78) vs 230 (69) (95% CI, -103.77 to -19.75; P = .003), 106 (90) vs 181 (89) (95% CI, -125.15 to -26.29; P = .005), and 43 (41) vs 51 (61) (95% CI, -36.34 to 21.14; P = .30), respectively. Platelet reactivity in the chewing group was significantly reduced by 24% at 30 minutes after LD (95% CI, 19.75 to 103.77; P = .001). The relative inhibition of platelet aggregation in the chewing vs the standard group were 51% vs 10% (95% CI, 13.69 to 67.67; P = .005) at 1 hour and 81% vs 76% (95% CI, -12.32 to 16.79; P = .24) at 4 hours, respectively. Major adverse cardiac and cardiovascular event rate at 30 days was low (4%) and occurred in 1 patient in each group (95% CI, 0.06 to 16.93; P > .99).Conclusions and relevanceChewing an LD of ticagrelor, 180 mg, in patients with STEMI is feasible and facilitates better early platelet inhibition compared with a standard oral LD. Larger studies are warranted to see if our preliminary findings translate into clinical outcomes.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT02725099.
