A 30-Day Pooled Analysis of Acetyl Salicylic Elimination Trials (ASET) In Brazil and Japan: Synergy Stent With Prasugrel Monotherapy Without Aspirin

Background

The safety of P2Y12 monotherapy without aspirin after coronary artery stent deployment is currently under intensive investigation in multiple countries and continents. Previously, the ASET-Brazil pilot study demonstrated the feasibility and safety of prasugrel monotherapy (10 mg/day) after a successful SYNERGY stent deployment in low-risk chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients presenting with anatomical SYNTAX score < 23. As an extension of the ASET Brazil pilot study, the ongoing ASET-Japan trial is conducted to assess the safety of an adjusted dose of monotherapy prasugrel (3.75 mg/day) for CCS and NSTE-ACS patients in East Asian populations. The aim of this study was to assess the 30 days results of prasugrel monotherapy without aspirin after successful SYNERGY stent(s) deployment for CCS and NSTE-ACS patients.

Methods

In this pooled analysis of the ASET Brazil and Japan trials, the primary ischemic endpoint was the composite of cardiac death, spontaneous target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), and definite stent thrombosis at 30 days follow-up. Primary bleeding endpoints were Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5.

Results

A total of 404 with 365 CCS and 39 NSTE-ACS patients were included in the study. Overall, the mean age was 64.4 ± 10.1, and 73.5 % were male. The incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM) was 34.9%. The anatomical SYNTAX score was low, but comparable in the ASET Japan and Brazil (7.8 ± 4.5 vs 7.2 ± 4.5, p = 0.112). The use of intravascular imaging in the ASET-Japan was significantly higher than in the ASET-Brazil (99.1% vs 14.8%, p < 0.001). On the final angiogram, 99.8% of the population achieved TIMI (Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction) grade III flow. The primary BARC 5b bleeding event occurred only in 1 patient (0.2%). No cardiac death, target vessel MI, or stent thrombosis occurred.

Conclusion

Aspirin-free prasugrel monotherapy with various dosages following successful SYNERGY stent(s) deployment showed excellent clinical outcomes without stent thrombosis in selected low-risk CCS and NSTE-ACS patients.
