Comparison of Myocardial Infarction Patients Who Were Prescribed a Novel Antiplatelet Agent or Clopidogrel

October 25, 2022 updated by: Chan Joon Kim

A Study of Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Myocardial Infarction Who Maintained Novel Antiplatelet Agents for 1 Year and Patients Who Switched to Clopidogrel Early

Myocardial infarction is defined according to icd-10 using the data base of South korea National Health Insurance Corporation, where personal identification information has already been removed, and detailed results are derived for each drug category.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to compare the prognosis of patients with clopidogrel after early discontinuation of ticagrelor/prasugrel with patients who maintained aspirin and ticagrelor/prasugrel as standard therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention.

Study Population

Prognostic data of patients who maintained aspirin and ticagreolor/prasugrel as standard therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, and patients with clopidogrel after early discontinuation of ticagrerol/prasugrel

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have a diagnosis code for acute myocardial infarction indicated in the National Health Insurance data and data for drugs that have used ticagrelor/prasugrel for 30-90 days when hospitalized for the relevant disease.
  • Patients who switched to clopidogrel after 30-90 days.
  • Patients with a diagnosis code for Venus myocardial infarction and a prescription code for percutaneous cardiovascular intervention in the National Health Insurance data.
  • Adults 18 years of age or older

Exclusion Criteria:

  • A person who has data for requesting blood transfusion during the period of hospitalization in the National Health Insurance data
  • Those who have data for oral anticoagulants (warfarin, Coumadin, apixaban, edoxaban, dabigatran, rivaroxaban) in the National Health Insurance data
  • Those who have a diagnosis code for malignant tumor in the National Health Insurance data
  • Those who have end-stage renal failure code in the National Health Insurance data or those who have data for hemo/peritoneal dialysis
  • A person who has a request for blood transfusion during the period of using Ticagrelor/prasugrel

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
ticagrelor/prasugrel Group
Patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and maintained aspirin and ticagrelor/prasugrel as standard therapy.
clopidogrel Group
In patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, discontinued ticagrelor/prasugrel and switched to clopidogrel

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Composite of all-cause death, recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, (ischemic and hemorrhagic ) and bleeding within one year.
Time Frame: Percutaneous coronary intervention after 1 Year

compared patients who maintained ticagrelor/Prasugrel with those who switched from ticagrelor/prasugrel to clopidogrel.

  • All cause death
  • Myocardial infarction
  • Stroke
  • Bleeding

Categorical data is indicated by number (%) and analyzed by X2 statistics. Continuous variables are expressed as mean standard deviation (±SD) , and in the case of skewed distribution, comparison is made by Mann-Whitney test or Student t test. To balance differences in baseline characteristics, stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting (sIPTW) is used. For further analysis, consider propensity score matching (PSM) with nearest neighbor method and standardized mortality ratio weighting (SMRW) estimation.

Propensity score uses a generalized additive logistic model and considers demographic data (age, gender, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart failure hemodialysis).
