Why Platelet Function Monitoring Should be Mandatory? To Improve Patients Outcome!
How platelet testing could improve prognosis?
How platelet testing could improve prognosis? Low Response to Clopidogrel risk of ischemic events Platelet Test for tailored Therapy in non responders

Predictors of low response to clopidogrel Clinical factors Non compliance Underdosing Drug-drug interaction Acute coronary syndrome Diabetes mellitus High BMI Renal failure Elderly patient Genetic factors CYP2C19*2 +++ Low response to clopidogrel Cellular factors High platelet turnover Lower CYP activity Increased ADP exposure

What Did we learn from Platelet Testing? - Variability of clopidogrel Response - Clinical consequences - Optimized therapy needed in High Risk Patients! - Evidence for Tailored therapy?
Repeated Loading doses in Non Responders? Elective PCI or NSTE ACS (50/50) N=162, 600 mg clopidogrel VASP Index HPR defined as PRI VASP>50% Additional 600 mg Loading dose VASP-guided vs. Control Significant benefit of tailored therapy on PR Bonello et al J Am Coll Cardiol 2007
Repeated Loading doses in Non Responders? Significant clinical benefit of tailored therapy Limitations: 8% non responders after 2,400 mg and delayed PCI Bonello et al J Am Coll Cardiol 2007
GPIIbIIIa inhibitors in Non Responders? 600 mg Clopidogrel, elective PCI, n=149 Elective PCI LTA Clopi NR: ADP-Ag>70% Abciximab vs Placebo Composite endpoint: 40 % vs 17 %, p<0.01 Periprocedural MI (Troponin > N): 35 % vs 18 %, p<0.01 Cuisset et al J Am Coll Cardiol Int 2008

However Results from small studies 3 Studies: 3 tests, 3 definitions, 3 strategies No consensual definition: test? Threshold? Timing? Large RCT s needed

Limitations of GRAVITAS Tailoring Based on single measurement Test performed after PCI Very Low Risk Population Adjusted strategy inappropriate (no new P2Y12 blockers)

TRIGGER-PCI : platelet testing Benefit of tailored therapy with prasugrel Trenk et al, J Am Coll Cardiol 2012
TRIGGER-PCI : clinical outcomes No clinical benefit of tailored therapy Trenk et al, J Am Coll Cardiol 2012
Bad news for tailored therapy in the study? Benefit on platelet inhibition without clinical benefit but. 1) Patient selection: Very Low risk population 2) Small sample size / number of events 3) Post PCI platelet testing (peri PCI optimization needed!) No definite conclusion derived from this study
How platelet testing could improve prognosis? Low Response to Clopidogrel risk of ischemic events Platelet Test for tailored Therapy in non responders High Platelet inhibition Higher Bleeding Risk Platelet Test for bleeding risk prevention

Bleeding Events Therapeutic Window? Ischemic Events Major Bleed 2 Optimal Therapeutic Range Stent Thrombosis 3 Higher Platelet Inhibition (HPI) Higher Platelet Reactivity (HPR)
How platelet testing could improve prognosis? 1) Low Response to Clopidogrel risk of ischemic events Platelet Test for tailored Therapy in non responders 2) High Platelet inhibition Higher Bleeding Risk Platelet Test for bleeding risk prevention 3) Lack of Compliance to DAPT Higher Risk of ST Platelet Test for non compliance detection / education
