Parenteral Antiplatelet Drugs in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Current Status and Future Directions

Sem A. O. F. Rikken, Robert F. Storey, Felicita Andreotti, Peter Clemmensen, Jurrien M. ten Berg

Summary: Oral inhibitors of the platelet P2Y(12) receptor play a crucial role in treating STEMI, but they have limitations in terms of delayed absorption and insufficient platelet inhibition during primary percutaneous coronary intervention. There is a clinical need for drugs that can provide rapid, effective, and safe platelet inhibition in the setting of STEMI. Novel parenteral antiplatelet drugs, such as cangrelor, selatogrel, and zalunfiban, have been developed to achieve rapid and potent antiplatelet effects while preserving hemostasis, offering a potential innovation in treatment options.

Summary: The study demonstrates that weight loss induced by bariatric surgery can halt the natural progression of carotid intima media thickness (C-IMT) over a 10-year observation period, compared to a population-based control cohort.

Biomarker Concentrations and Their Temporal Changes in Patients With Myocardial Infarction and Nonobstructive Compared With Obstructive Coronary Arteries: Results From the PLATO Trial

Summary: Investigating biomarker concentrations and their changes can provide new insights into the pathobiology of nonobstructive myocardial infarction (MINOCA). Patients with MINOCA have higher initial inflammatory activity, similar myocardial dysfunction, and faster recovery compared to those with MI with obstructive coronary artery disease.

Haemodynamic gain index is associated with risk of sudden cardiac death and improves risk prediction: a cohort study

Jari Laukkanen, Nzechukwu M. Isiozor, Peter Willeit, Setor K. Kunutsor

Summary: The study investigated the association between haemodynamic gain index (HGI) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk using data from a long-term prospective cohort study. The results showed that higher HGI levels were associated with a lower risk of SCD, with a dose-response relationship and dependence on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) levels. Addition of HGI to a SCD risk prediction model improved risk discrimination and reclassification, but CRF remained a stronger predictor of SCD.

Vascular endothelial growth factor-D plasma levels and VEGFD genetic variants are independently associated with outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease

Summary: This study investigated the associations between circulating VEGF ligands and/or soluble receptors and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). The results showed that VEGF-D, KDR, Flt-1, and PlGF were significantly associated with CV outcomes. Furthermore, genetic variants of VEGFD were also found to be independently associated with CV outcomes.

Summary: Antiplatelet therapy is the main pharmacologic treatment for preventing thrombotic or ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease, but it also increases the risk of bleeding complications. Defining the optimal intensity of platelet inhibition based on clinical presentation and individual patient factors is challenging. Modulating antiplatelet therapy involves adjusting the type, dose, or number of drugs to balance the risks of thrombotic events and bleeding. To address confusion in terminology, this study provides an overview and definitions of different strategies of antiplatelet therapy modulation for patients with coronary artery disease.

Reversal and removal of oral antithrombotic drugs in patients with active or perceived imminent bleeding

Davide Cao, Nicolas Amabile, Mauro Chiarito, Victoria T. Lee, Dominick J. Angiolillo, Davide Capodanno, Deepak L. Bhatt, Michael J. Mack, Robert F. Storey, Michael Schmoeckel, C. Michael Gibson, Efthymios N. Deliargyris, Roxana Mehran

Summary: Significant progress has been made in the pharmacological management of cardiovascular disease, but bleeding complications remain common. Therapeutic interventions for antithrombotic drug reversal or removal have shown promising results but require careful consideration of the potential prothrombotic effects and risks associated with withdrawal of antithrombotic protection. There is a need for dedicated clinical investigations to understand the risk tradeoff in urgent high-risk settings, but challenges in trial design exist with practical, financial, and ethical implications.

What can we learn from senescent platelets, their transcriptomes and proteomes?

Harriet E. Allan, Ami Vadgama, Paul C. Armstrong, Timothy D. Warner

Summary: Research on the natural aging process of platelets has attracted much attention in recent years. Previous studies have shown an association between the proportion of newly formed platelets in the circulation and the risk of thrombosis. However, these observations were mainly demonstrated in patient groups with underlying systemic changes. Recent technological advances have allowed in-depth analysis of differently aged platelets from healthy individuals, revealing extensive changes in the transcriptome and proteome of aged platelets. These changes result in deteriorated platelet function, impairing their ability to participate in hemostatic responses.

Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk in Women: Progress so Far and Progress to Come

Lena Tschiderer, Lisa Seekircher, Peter Willeit, Sanne A. E. Peters

Summary: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women worldwide, but there are uncertainties in prediction, diagnosis, and treatment. Risk scores are used for prediction, and pregnancy- and reproductive-factors may affect cardiovascular disease risk. However, adding female-specific factors to existing models does not significantly improve cardiovascular risk prediction. Further research is needed to determine if pregnancy-related factors improve risk prediction in young women for better prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease.

Management of patients on antithrombotic therapy with severe infections: a joint clinical consensus statement of the ESC Working Group on Thrombosis, the ESC Working Group on Atherosclerosis and Vascular Biology, and the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis

Summary: Patients with severe infections and a pre-existing indication for antithrombotic therapy require integrated clinical counselling among coagulation, infectious disease, and cardiology specialists, due to sepsis-induced coagulopathy that frequently occurs. The association between bacterial and viral pathogens and patients with ongoing antithrombotic treatment is a growing threat to public health. This clinical consensus statement provides expert opinion and statements on the management of patients hospitalized for severe bacterial or viral infections with a pre-existing indication for antithrombotic therapy, in whom sepsis-induced coagulopathy is often observed.

Clinical pharmacology of selatogrel for self-administration by patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction

Martine Gehin, Robert F. Storey, Corine Bernaud, Jasper Dingemanse

Summary: Selatogrel, a potent and reversible P2Y12 inhibitor administered subcutaneously, is under development for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Results from preclinical, phase 1, and phase 2 trials show that selatogrel provides rapid and pronounced P2Y12 receptor inhibition with a favorable safety profile.

Summary: This study suggests that circulating ApoJ-Glyc levels are associated with myocardial ischemia in patients with chest pain in the emergency department, even in the absence of troponin elevations. Therefore, ApoJ-Glyc may be a useful marker of myocardial ischemia in this setting.

Summary: This study assessed the impact of conservative and invasive strategies on major adverse clinical events in elderly patients with NSTEMI. It found that an early invasive strategy was associated with benefits over conservative management. Risk factors associated with ischemia and bleeding should guide strategy selection rather than solely relying on age.

Summary: This study provides insights into the real-world utilization of ticagrelor 60 mg in patients with prior myocardial infarction (MI) and its associated bleeding and ischemic outcomes. The observed event rates align with those in pivotal trials, reaffirming the safety profile of ticagrelor and highlighting the significant residual ischemic risk in this population.
