27 Since the PLATO study design allowed for open-label clopidogrel to be administered before randomization, and 46% of the ticagrelor group received clopidogrel in this way, the PLATO trial was essentially a switch from clopidogrel to ticagrelor for these patients. The switch from clopidogrel to ticagrelor in the PLATO study did not result in any safety concerns.

40 Conclusions HTPR is commonly observed during the first 24 h post 600 mg clopidogrel LD in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI, at the time when platelet inhibition is mostly needed. In case of HTPR, prasugrel 60 mg LD administered on top and subsequent 10 mg MD provide faster and stronger platelet inhibition than a high clopidogrel MD regimen.

48 Switch and non switch in P2Y12 inhibition: the real life use of clopidogrel and prasugrel in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Insights from the FAST MI 2010 registry Schiele F et al ESC 2012 Nationwide French registry 4169 patients with AMI in 213 centres received thienopyridines, 1259 received prasugrel (31%). 391 received de novo prasugrel, 807 (64%) were treated with clopidogrel first and then switched to prasugrel 11% had a 60mg loading dose of prasugrel.

49 FAST MI 2010 registry A high proportion of patients treated with prasugrel were switched from clopidogrel therapy (64%). No evidence of excess risk of bleeding or inhospital complications in the patients who were switched, compared with those who received prasugrel treatment only.

58 TAKE HOME MESSAGES Switching from clopidogrel to prasugrel or ticagrelor may be an alternative for clinical settings (like STEMI) in which these drugs have shown to be more beneficial compared with clopidogrel. Switching from the novel P2Y12 receptor inhibitors to the less potent clopidogrel in patients with ACS should be considered for patients in whom the novel agents are contraindicated

59 When and whether to switch, and whether to administer an LD of prasugrel or ticagrelor at the time of switching, are clinical decisions left to the discretion of the treating clinician. Specifically designed studies evaluating the efficacy and safety related to switching from clopidogrel to either prasugrel or ticagrelor are not available.

60 Data from registries: Switching is the commonest practice. Age, PPCI, FMC at non- PCI hospital, prior clopidogrel, regional differences may influence upgrading
