Abstract
- Background: After a brief period of dual antiplatelet therapy, P2Y <subscript>12</subscript> inhibitor monotherapy in the absence of aspirin effectively reduces bleeding without increasing recurrent ischemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In addition, early anti-inflammatory therapies may have clinical benefits in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients.<br />Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of ticagrelor or prasugrel P2Y <subscript>12</subscript> inhibitor monotherapy combined with colchicine immediately after PCI in patients with ACS.<br />Methods: This was a proof-of-concept pilot trial. ACS patients treated with drug-eluting stents were included. On the day after PCI, low-dose colchicine (0.6 mg daily) was administered in addition to ticagrelor or prasugrel maintenance therapy, whereas aspirin therapy was discontinued. The primary outcome was any stent thrombosis at 3 months. The key secondary outcomes were platelet reactivity measured by the VerifyNow assay (Accriva) before discharge and a reduction in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) over 1 month.<br />Results: We enrolled 200 patients, 190 (95.0%) of whom completed the 3-month follow-up. The primary outcome occurred in 2 patients (1.0%): 1 definite and 1 probable stent thrombosis. The level of platelet reactivity overall was 27 ± 42 P2Y <subscript>12</subscript> reaction units, and only 1 patient had high platelet reactivity (>208 P2Y <subscript>12</subscript> reaction units). The hs-CRP levels decreased from 6.1 mg/L (IQR: 2.6-15.9 mg/L) at 24 hours after PCI to 0.6 mg/L (IQR: 0.4-1.2 mg/L) at 1 month (P < 0.001), and the prevalence of high-inflammation criteria (hs-CRP ≥2 mg/L) decreased from 81.8% to 11.8% (P < 0.001).<br />Conclusions: In ACS patients undergoing PCI, it is feasible to discontinue aspirin therapy and administer low-dose colchicine on the day after PCI in addition to ticagrelor or prasugrel P2Y <subscript>12</subscript> inhibitors. This approach is associated with favorable platelet function and inflammatory profiles.
