Hypothesis
The addition of ticagrelor to standard therapy
(including low-dose aspirin) would reduce the
incidence of major adverse cardiovascular
events during long-term follow-up
in patients with a history of MI
Global enrollment
Methods
Study design and oversight
Study population
Randomization and study treatment
End points
Statistical analysis

Key Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria
Bonaca MP et al. Am Heart J 2014;167:437-44
Endpoints
Efficacy : hierarchical testing
Primary : cardiovascular death , myocardial infarction ,
stroke
Secondary : all cause mortality + non-coronary ischemic
events , individual ischemic eventsSafety :
Primary : TIMI major bleeding
Other : intracranial hemorrhage , fatal bleeding [ death >7d]

Results
Efficacy vs safety
 Ticagrelor at any dose >placebo
 60 mg as good as 90 mg
 ~ 15 %-19% relative risk reduction

 90 mg > 60 mg at MI prevention

Discussion : limitation , comparison
journal club- dual-antiplatelets therapy Post AMI
 All trials agree on the benefits of dual anti- platelet therapy after
MI
 DAPT trial :
1) Randomly assigned pts to continuing vs stopping a P2Y12 receptor
antagonist after 12 moths
2) Included pts who had not had clinically significant bleeding.
3) Included pts who were able to keep taking a P2Y12 receptor
antagonist .
4) All above minimize their bleeding complication
 In PEGASUS-TIMI 54 all Pts began treatment with Brilinta
after they complete the guidelines duration of therapy .They
enrolled close to 2 years after MI
 Considering side effects [ mainly dyspnea] : PLATO trial > PEGASUS-TIM
1. Less stable Pts in PLATO study [ dyspnea is common during 1 year after
2. PEGASUS-TIMI 54 had more stable Pts [ 3 years after MI]
3. PEGASUS-TIMI 54 reflects the real dyspnea ratio as a complication
 PEGASUS-TIMI 54 : safety profile should not be generalized for
all population
1) High risk of bleeding , previous stroke , anticoagulants usage
were among the exclusion criteria
summary
• Adding ticagrelor to low-dose aspirin in stable patients with a history of MI reduced
the risk of CV death, MI or stroke
• The benefit of Ticagrelor was consistent at all major groups and sub groups
• Ticagrelor increased the risk of TIMI major bleeding, but not fatal bleeding or ICH
• The two doses of Ticagrelor had similar overall efficacy, but bleeding and other side
effects tended to be less frequent with 60 mg bid dose
Thanks 
