Background • Enhanced platelet reactivitymay mainly underlie the risk of adverse cardiovascular disease in the early phase of AMI. • High post-clopidogrel platelet reactivity (HPPR) in patients with AMI has been associated with ischemic clinical events including stent thrombosis.

Purpose of Study • It has not been established whether the benefit of adjunctive cilostazol to dual antiplatelet therapy (“triple antiplatelet therapy”: TAPT) may be related with greater inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation in AMI patients. • We compared the degree of platelet inhibition by adjunctive cilostazol (100mg twice a day)vs.high-MD clopidogrel (150 mg/d) in AMI patients undergoing coronary stenting.
Study Population • Enrollment - ≥ 18 years of age - AMI patients undergoing uneventful coronary stenting • Exclusion criteria - a history of active bleeding and bleeding diatheses - oral anticoagulation therapy with coumadin - contraindication to antiplatelet therapy - LV ejection fraction < 30% - leukocyte < 3,000/mm3 and/or platelet < 100,000/mm3 - AST or ALT level ≥ 3 times upper normal - serum creatinine level ≥ 2.5 mg/dl - non-cardiac disease with a life expectancy < 1 year
Patients undergoing coronary stenting for AMI (n = 120) Clopidogrel 600mg loading 75 mg/d before randomization Exclusion criteria (n = 25)Low LV ejection faction anticoagulation etc. Refusal (n = 5) Randomization after pre-discharge platelet reactivity assessment: 3-5 days after coronary stenting (n = 90) High MD clopidogrel 150 mg/d (n = 30) Standard MD clopidogrel 75 mg/d (n = 30) Adjunctive cilostazol 100 mg twice daily (n = 30) Platelet reactivity at 30-day follow-up (n = 30) Platelet reactivity at 30-day follow-up (n = 30) Platelet reactivity at 30-day follow-up (n = 30)
Study Measurement • Method 1. Conventional aggregometry with 5 and 20 μM ADP- maximal aggregation (Aggmax) and late aggregation at 5 minutes (Agglate)2.

Achieving Balance: efficacy vs. bleeding • Superiority of Ticagrelor to Prasugrel in terms of cardiovascular mortality - ↓ myocardial infarction > ↑ major bleeding - elevated level of adenosine: inhibition of adenosine reuptake by red blood cells • No increase of major bleeding by TAPT 1) Endothelium-targeted antithrombotic therapy: Cilostazol reduces the number of partially activated platelets by interacting with activated endothelial cells. 2) Adjunctive cilostazol to aspirin or clopidogrel does not prolong bleeding time. 3) Cilostazol has the relatively short recovery time of platelet function.
Beneficial role of Cilostazol in AMI patients • Additive platelet inhibition irrespective of CYP2C19 genotyping - Carrier of CYP2C19 mutant allele: East Asian 55-60% vs. Caucasian 25-30% - Hepatic metabolism of Cilostazol: mainly CYP3A system • Elevated level of adenosine • Activation of RISK (PI3/Akt) pathway - Reduction of ischemia-reperfusion injury • Control of diverse pathway of atherothrombosis - oxidative stress - endothelial dysfunction - expression of adhesion molecule - inflammation cascade - cholesterol oxidation
Juggling Antiplatelets • Choice of intensified antiplatelet regimens (TAPT vs. prasugrel vs. ticagrelor)- efficacy - bleeding risk - tolerability - cost - duration - additional pleiotropic effect ex) control of neointimal hyperplasia • “Head to head comparison”is needed.
