                    Aim of the study


To test the hypothesis that in patients on OAC undergoing PCI,

clopidogrel alone is superior to the combination aspirin and

clopidogrel with respect to bleeding but is not increasing

thrombotic risk in a multicentre two-country study (The

Netherlands and Belgium)

                     Study Design-3

- Power calculation was based on the largest retrospective
  study by Karjalainen1 addressing this issue.
- We anticipated a 12% bleeding rate in the triple therapy
  group and a 5% bleeding rate in the double therapy group
- Power was chosen to be 80% and α level 5%. The total
  patient number is estimated at n = 496
- The study is designed as a superiority trial
- All events were adjudicated by a committee blinded to
  treatment allocation

                           Limitations

- The study was powered to show superiority on the primary
  bleeding endpoint, but not to show non-inferiority on the
  secondary endpoint

- Open label trial design with its inherent bias

- Classification of smaller bleeding, although well defined and
  blindly adjudicated, may be subjective

                               Conclusions
1. First randomized trial to address the optimal antiplatelet therapy in patients on
   OAC undergoing coronary stenting

2. In this study which was specifically designed to detect bleeding events, the
   bleeding rate was higher than expected

3. Primary endpoint was met: OAC plus clopidogrel causes less bleeding than triple
   antithrombotic therapy, but now shown in a randomized way

4. Secondary endpoint was met: with double therapy there is no excess of
   thrombotic/thromboembolic events: stroke, stent thrombosis, target vessel
   revascularisation, myocardial infarction or death

5. Less all-cause mortality with double therapy

WOEST


                   Implications

We propose that a strategy of oral anticoagulants

plus clopidogrel, but without aspirin could be

applied in this group of high-risk patients on OAC

when undergoing PCI

  • 19. WOEST Aim of the study To test the hypothesis that in patients on OAC undergoing PCI, clopidogrel alone is superior to the combination aspirin and clopidogrel with respect to bleeding but is not increasing thrombotic risk in a multicentre two-country study (The Netherlands and Belgium) |
  • 20. WOEST Study Design-1 Inclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria: 1/ Indication for OAC for at least 1 1/ History of intracranial bleeding year 2/ Cardiogenic shock during 2/ One coronary lesion eligible for hospitalisation 3/ Peptic ulcer in the previous 6 months PCI 4/ TIMI major bleeding in the previous 3/ Age over 18 year 5/ Contra-indication for aspirin or clopidogrel 6/ Thrombocytopenia (platelet count less than 50,000 per ml) 7/ Pregnancy 8/ Age >80 |
  • 21.

  • 22. WOEST Study Design-3 - Power calculation was based on the largest retrospective study by Karjalainen1 addressing this issue. - We anticipated a 12% bleeding rate in the triple therapy group and a 5% bleeding rate in the double therapy group - Power was chosen to be 80% and α level 5%. The total patient number is estimated at n = 496 - The study is designed as a superiority trial - All events were adjudicated by a committee blinded to treatment allocation 1 Eur Heart J 2007;28:726-32

  • 35. WOEST Limitations - The study was powered to show superiority on the primary bleeding endpoint, but not to show non-inferiority on the secondary endpoint - Open label trial design with its inherent bias - Classification of smaller bleeding, although well defined and blindly adjudicated, may be subjective |
  • 36. WOEST Conclusions 1. First randomized trial to address the optimal antiplatelet therapy in patients on OAC undergoing coronary stenting 2. In this study which was specifically designed to detect bleeding events, the bleeding rate was higher than expected 3. Primary endpoint was met: OAC plus clopidogrel causes less bleeding than triple antithrombotic therapy, but now shown in a randomized way 4. Secondary endpoint was met: with double therapy there is no excess of thrombotic/thromboembolic events: stroke, stent thrombosis, target vessel revascularisation, myocardial infarction or death 5. Less all-cause mortality with double therapy |
  • 37. WOEST Implications We propose that a strategy of oral anticoagulants plus clopidogrel, but without aspirin could be applied in this group of high-risk patients on OAC when undergoing PCI |

  7. This trial compared two antithrombotic regimens in 517 patients following Palmaz-Schatz coronary artery stenting: ticlopidine (for 4 weeks), aspirin (indefinitely), and heparin (for 12 hours after the procedure) were compared with phenprocoumon, a warfarin derivative (for 4 weeks), aspirin (indefinitely), and heparin (for 5 to 10 days after the procedure). \n\nThe antiplatelet group did better in all clinical end points than the anticoagulation group: stent occlusion, 0.8% versus 5.4% (P &lt; 0.005); major bleeding complications, 0% versus 6.5% (P &lt; 0.001). There was an approximately 80% reduction in the occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (0.8% vs. 4.2%, P = 0.02) and the need for repeat coronary intervention (1.2% vs. 5.4%, P = 0.01) in the antiplateletgroup. At 6months,there was no differencein angiographic restenosis rates (27% for the antiplatelet group and 29% for the anticoagulation group, P = NS).\n
  8. The STARS (Stent Antithrombotic Regimen Study) trial compared aspirin alone, aspirin and coumadin, or aspirin and ticlopidine in 1,650 patients after Palmaz &amp;#x2013;Schatz stent implantation. Similar to the ISAR trial, the combination of aspirin and ticlopidine was associated with the lowest stent thrombosis rate (0.6% in the STARS trial).\n
  9. Ticlopidine has been associated with life-threatening neutropenia and has largely been supplanted at many interventional cardiology centers by clopidogrel, a drug chemically related to ticlopidine. Clopidogrel has the same specific mechanism of action as ticlopidine against the ADP-activated pathway of platelet aggregation, but it has a more rapid onset of antiplatelet action, its antiplatelet effect is severalfold more powerful, and it is associated with a lower incidence of neutropenia (0.1%) than ticlopidine (2.4%).\n\nCure focused on Non-ST elevation MI\n\nThe primary end points of MI, stroke, and cardiovascular death from randomization to 1 year were reported. There was a 20% RRR in the primary outcome of MI, stroke, or cardiovascular death, a highly significant result at 12 months in patients treated with clopidogrel. The most pronounced ben- efit was observed in the reduction of MIs, with the largest reductions of 40% in Q-wave or ST-elevation MI, also statistically significant. In parallel with the reduction in large MI was a 43% reduction in the use of fibrinolytic therapy after randomization and an 18% reduction in radiologically confirmed HF.\n\n\n
  10. In patients with STEMI treated with lytics prior to PCI, pretreatment with clopidogrel prior to PCI:\n\n46% reduction in the combined MACE endpoint\nNo excess TIMI major or minor bleeding\n
  11. Chinese Ministry of Health\n\nThe COMMIT trial used a 75 mg/day dose with no loading dose, unlike CLARITY-TIMI 28, which treated patients with an initial 300 mg loading dose. Despite the lack of a loading dose in COMMIT, the endpoint curves began to diverge as early as day one. \n\nThe risk of any major bleeding did not differ between the clopidogrel and placebo groups. However, minor bleeding was not reported, and it is unknown if the risk of bleeding would be higher had patients undergone revascularization.\n
  12. \n
  13. \n
  14. \n
  15. The trial was discontinued early at the recommendation of the data safety monitoring board due to evidence of superiority on the primary endpoint with oral anticoagulant therapy over clopidogrel plus aspirin (3.90% per year vs. 5.60% per year; relative risk [RR], 1.44; p = 0.0003). Among the individual components of the composite, the oral anticoagulant therapy group had lower rates of stroke (1.4% per year vs. 2.4% per year, p = 0.001) and non-CNS embolism (0.10% per year vs. 0.43% per year, p = 0.005), with no significant difference in myocardial infarction (MI) (0.55% per year vs. 0.86% per year, p = 0.09) or vascular death (2.52% per year vs. 2.87% per year, p = 0.34). \n\nThere was also no difference in total mortality (3.8% per year in both groups). In subgroup analysis, the largest benefit in the primary endpoint was observed in patients who were on oral anticoagulant therapy at study entry (RR, 1.50; p = 0.0005).\n

  30. Note a sudden fall in the use of clopidogrel in both groups possibly because of stopping clopidogrel 30days after bare metal stenting\n
  31. The Kaplan Meier curve of the aspirin compliance is comparable to the reversed curve of the bleeding events in the triple therapy group\n
