29 The most important clinical predictors of ACS and acute MI seem to be the following: chest pain that radiates (especially bilaterally or to the right side), associated diaphoresis, associated vomiting, and pain on exertion. Assess every one of your patients with chest pain for these 4 historical features, and if the answer to any of these is "yes," seriously think twice about sending that patient home

55 Currently, standard of care secondary prevention therapy for patients after ACS is a dual antiplatelet regimen comprising ASA plus clopidogrel, prasugrel (only in patients who have undergone PCI) or ticagrelor. All patients, unless contraindicated, should be discharged from hospital on antiplatelet therapy. Most patients continue taking ASA indefinitely, whereas clopidogrel, prasugrel and ticagrelor are usually given for up to 12 months.

59 AMI and Angiographically normal coronary arteries

60

61 METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 897 coronary angiographies were performed as an emergency procedure in our institution. The majority of patients (n = 821) presented with coronary artery disease and the majority was treated by mechanical revascularization (86.3%). In 76 patients (8.5%), no coronary artery stenosis was documented. However, according to the preangiographic risk stratification, coronary artery disease was expected in these patients. Observations documented angiographically included coronary spasms (6.6%) and muscle bridges (5.3%). During a mean follow-up of /- 6.4 months, one patient developed an acute myocardial infarction requiring coronary intervention. All other patients were free of any cardiac event. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, we have to consider that coronary angiography may not always detect the cause of myocardial ischemia in every patient. There is a small group of patients with normal coronary angiograms during acute coronary syndrome. Additional diagnostic procedures like intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or the assessment of intracoronary physiological parameters may increase the diagnostic value of angiography.

73 PLATO: Study Design N=18,624 Patients with ACS (UA, NSTEMI, or STEMI*) TICAGRELOR (n=9,333) 180-mg loading dose All patients were hospitalised with symptom onset <24 hours Patients could be taking clopidogrel at time of randomisation 300-mg loading dose Clopidogrel (n=9,291) 90 mg bid + ASA maintenance dose 75 mg qd + ASA maintenance dose Primary efficacy endpoint: Composite of CV death, MI (excluding silent MI), or stroke Primary safety endpoint: Total PLATO major bleeding Randomisation Visit 2 Visit 3 Visit 4 Visit 5 Visit 6 Screening <24h Month 1 Month 3 Month 6 Month 9 Month 12 Initial Treatment approaches Medically managed (n=5, %) Invasively managed (n=13, %) Wallentin L, et al. N Engl J Med. 2009;361: James S, et al. Am Heart J. 2009;157: *STEMI patients scheduled for primary PCI were randomised; however, they may not have received PCI. A loading dose of 300-mg clopidogrel was permitted in patients not previously treated with clopidogrel, with an additional 300 mg allowed at the discretion of the investigator. The PLATO study expanded the definition of major bleeding to be more inclusive compared with previous studies in ACS patients. The primary safety endpoint was the first occurrence of any major bleeding event.

74

75 PLATO Study Summary PLATO (N Engl J Med. 2009;361: ) was a pivotal clinical study, comparing BRILIQUE to clopidogrel A total of 18,624 patients with ACS were randomised early after admission to the hospital within 24 hours of symptom onset and generally prior to angiography The study was designed to reflect clinical practice Allowed prior clopidogrel use Included both intent for invasive management (72%) and intent for medical management (28%) PLATO allowed up to 600-mg clopidogrel loading dose pre-pci PLATO enrolled a broad spectrum of patients with ACS (UA, NSTEMI, or STEMI) Wallentin L, et al. N Engl J Med. 2009;361: James S, et al. Am Heart J. 2009;157: Cannon CP, et al. Lancet. 2010;375:

76 PLATO Efficacy Results Summary In PLATO, BRILIQUE significantly reduced the composite of CV death, MI or stroke vs clopidogrel at 1 year (1.9% ARR, 16% RRR, P<0.001, NNT=54) BRILIQUE significantly reduced CV mortality vs clopidogrel (1.1% ARR, 21% RRR, P=0.001) Risk of CV death and MI were both significantly reduced Risk of stroke was not significantly different The absolute risk reduction with BRILIQUE vs clopidogrel starts early and continues to build over the full 1 year treatment period In PLATO, for every 91 ACS patients treated with BRILIQUE for 1 year, instead of clopidogrel, 1 CV death was prevented (NNT=91) The effect of BRILIQUE over clopidogrel appears consistent across many subgroups Wallentin L, et al.
