Sex Differences in Midterm Prognostic Implications of High Platelet Reactivity After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Drug-Eluting Stents in East Asian Patients: Results From the PTRG-DES (Platelet Function and Genotype-Related Long-Term Prognosis in Drug-Eluting Stent-Treated Patients With Coronary Artery Disease) Consortium

초록

Background Although high platelet reactivity (HPR) on clopidogrel is associated with higher ischemic events and lower bleeding events in patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents, the differential risk of HPR in East Asian women versus men is unknown. Methods and Results We compared 11 714 patients enrolled in the PTRG-DES (Platelet Function and Genotype-Related Long-Term Prognosis in Drug-Eluting Stent-Treated Patients With Coronary Artery Disease) Consortium according to sex and the presence/absence of HPR on clopidogrel (defined as ≥252 P2Y12 reactivity units). The primary study end point was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs; comprising all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, and stent thrombosis). HPR was more common in women (46.7%) than in men (28.1%). In propensity-adjusted models, HPR was an independent predictor of MACCEs (men with HPR: hazard ratio [HR], 1.60 [95% CI, 1.20-2.12]; women with HPR: HR, 0.99 [95% CI, 0.69-1.42]) and all-cause mortality (men with HPR: HR, 1.61 [95% CI, 1.07-2.44]; women with HPR: HR, 0.92 [95% CI, 0.57-1.50]) in men, although those associations were insignificant among women. In addition, a significant interaction between sex was noted in the associations between HPR and MACCE (Pinteraction=0.013) or all-cause mortality (Pinteraction=0.025). Conclusions In this study, HPR was a differential risk factor for 1-year MACCEs and all-cause mortality in women and men. And it was an independent predictor of 1-year MACCEs and all-cause mortality in men but not in women.
