Abstract

Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of genotype- and phenotype-guided intensified antiplatelet therapy compared with conventional therapy in patients undergoing stent implantation. Background Although potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitors are recommended for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-treated acute coronary syndrome, their usage is limited by a high bleeding risk. Therefore, personalized antiplatelet therapy could provide a valuable foundation for selection of antiplatelet therapy in this population. Methods We conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis for all randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that evaluated genotype- and/or phenotype-guided therapy in PCI-treated coronary artery disease. Results Thirteen RCTs were included with a total of 6,845 patients. The results showed no significant differences in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) between the treatment options ((genotype guided vs. standard of care; OR 0.64; 95% CI: 0.38-1.05) and (phenotype vs. standard of care; OR 0.93; 95% CI: 0.54-1.37)). In addition, no significant differences were demonstrated in bleeding events ((genotype guided vs. standard of care; OR 0.73; 95% CI: 0.45-1.25) and (phenotype vs. standard of care; OR 0.90; 95% CI: 0.62-1.39)). Conclusions In this mixed treatment meta-analysis of RCTs, neither genotype- nor phenotype-guided antiplatelet therapy in patients with PCI-treated coronary artery disease was superior to conventional therapy.
