    Description of Event or Problem · 0

    IT WAS REPORTED THAT PATIENT DEATHS OCCURRED. INFORMATION WAS OBTAINED AT THE 33RD ANNUAL MEETING OF THE JAPANESE SOCIETY FOR CARDIOVASCULAR INTERVENTION AND TREATMENT IN 2025. ONE-MONTH DUAL ANTIPLATELET THERAPY (DAPT) IS CONSIDERED APPROPRIATE FOR PATIENTS WITH HIGH BLEEDING RISK (HBR), BUT IT WAS UNCLEAR WHETHER A 1-MONTH DAPT IS APPLICABLE TO ALL PATIENTS WITH OR WITHOUT HBR. THE PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY IS TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF P2Y12 INHIBITOR MONOTHERAPY AFTER 1-MONTH DAPT. DATA FROM ONE PCI CENTER AND NINE HOSPITALS IN NORTHERN JAPAN WERE USED. THE SUBJECTS WERE 1,202 PATIENTS WHO SUCCESSFULLY UNDERWENT PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY ANGIOPLASTY (PCI) USING A BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER DRUG ELUTING STENTS (DES) (SYNERGY: 400 CASES, NON-BOSTON SCIENTIFIC (NON-BSC): 401 CASES, NON-BSC: 401 CASES). DAPT FOR 1 MONTH WAS APPLIED IN ALL CASES, FOLLOWED BY A P2Y12 INHIBITOR (PRASUGREL 3.75 MG/DAY OR CLOPIDOGREL 75 MG/DAY) MONOTHERAPY. THE PRIMARY ENDPOINT (COMBINED CARDIOVASCULAR AND BLEEDING EVENTS) OCCURRED IN 12 MONTHS, WHICH WAS SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW THE PRE-SPECIFIED NON-INFERIORITY TARGET VALUE. THERE WAS ONLY ONE CASE OF STENT THROMBOSIS, WHICH OCCURRED ON THE 258TH DAY. THERE WERE 6 CASES OF STROKE AND 22 CASES OF DEATH. IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT THE TREATMENT STRATEGY OF PERFORMING P2Y12 INHIBITOR MONOTHERAPY AFTER 1-MONTH DAPT IS SAFE FOR BOTH HBR PATIENTS AND NON-HBR PATIENTS IN DAILY MEDICAL CARE. IT COULD NOT BE COMPARED DIRECTLY WITH THE LONG-TERM DAPT BECAUSE IT IS A SINGLE-GROUP DESIGN, BUT THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS STRATEGY WAS SHOWN.
