Question 1: Does a change in biomarker levels over time confer a change in prognosis in patients with ACS?
Initial NT-proBNP and hs-CRP Re-assess NT-proBNP and hs-CRP 6 month-baseline NT-proBNP NT-proBNP NT-proBNP Mortality risk 6 month-baseline hs-CRP MI risk hs-CRP hs-CRP Hospitalization for NSTEACS Escalate or modify management? Re-measure NT-proBNP and hs-CRP? Initial treatment Baseline 6 months 30 months
TRILOGY-ACS Biomarker Substudy Presented at AHA 2014
Changes in NT-proBNP and hs-CRP (delta) from baseline to 6 months
Quantitative changes in risk associated with changes in biomarker levels
Question 2: For expensive prognostic biomarkers like miRNA, what is the best timepoint to measure them
miRNAs measured at baseline and 30 days Presented at AHA 2016
Differential prediction of MI and CV death risk by miRs measured at baseline and 30 days
Conclusions • An increase/decrease of NT-proBNP over time is quantitatively associated with an increase/decrease in risk of CV death • An increase/decrease of hs-CRP over time is quantitatively associated with an increased/decrease in MI risk. • miRs measured at 30-day are far greater prognostic value for recurrent ischemic events than miRs measured at baseline
Prognostic biomarker studies must not only study the association between measurements at individual timepoints and events, they must also investigate the delta between timepoints • For multi-marker platforms, different markers may have differential prognostic value at different phases in the longitudinal evolution of the disease
