Why the study?

Managing HBR patients undergoing PCI for ACS remains challenging due to limited data on balancing ischemic prevention and bleeding avoidance.

Overview

May warrant CYP2C19 testing to guide short DAPT in HBR ACS; extends pharmacogenomic evidence to high-bleeding-risk PCI cohorts.

Key Points

  • To explore the management of antiplatelet therapy for high-bleeding risk patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing PCI.
  • Literature search on PubMed/MEDLINE and Embase
  • Review of randomized trials and meta-analyses
  • Analysis of major guidelines on high-bleeding risk and antiplatelet strategies
  • Discussion of CYP2C19 pharmacogenomics in personalized therapy
  • Shortening dual antiplatelet therapy duration may reduce bleeding incidence
  • Preference for clopidogrel can maintain effective ischemic protection
  • Pharmacogenomic testing facilitates individualized treatment strategies

Structured PICO

P
Population
High-bleeding risk (HBR) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for an acute coronary syndrome (ACS)
I
Intervention
Individualized antiplatelet therapy including CYP2C19 pharmacogenomic testing, short DAPT duration, and P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy

Pharmacogenomic testing for CYP2C19 and individualized antiplatelet strategies like short DAPT or monotherapy may help balance ischemic and bleeding risks in HBR patients with ACS undergoing PCI.

Limitations

  • Data for HBR patients are limited
  • Understudied HBR patient population
