This study analyzes the DAPT Study data to develop a decision tool for identifying which patients would benefit or be harmed from continuing dual antiplatelet therapy beyond 1 year after coronary stenting. It accounts for individual patient characteristics, risks of ischemia and bleeding events, and predicts treatment effects.

Kereiakes, Sharon-Lise T. Normand, Anthony H. Gershlick, David J. Cohen, John A. Spertus, P. Gabriel Steg, Donald E. Cutlip, Michael J. Rinaldi, EdoardoCamenzind, William Wijns, Patricia K.

Background Risk Difference (Continued Thienopyridine – Placebo), 12-30M Stent Thrombosis Death, MI, Or Stroke (MACCE) Myocardial Infarction GUSTO Mod/Severe Bleed Death HR 0.47 (0.37–0.61) P<0.001 HR 0.71 (0.59–0.85) P<0.001 Mauri, Kereiakes, Yeh et al. NEJM. 2014 Dec 4:371:2155-66. • In the DAPT Study, continuation of dual antiplatelet therapy beyond 12 months reduced ischemic complications after coronary stenting compared with aspirin alone, yet increased moderate or severe bleeding.
Objective • To develop a decision tool to identify whether an individual patient is more likely to derive benefit or harm from continuation of dual antiplatelet therapy beyond 1 year. • Based on composite of individual patient characteristics • Simultaneously accounting for patient risks of ischemia AND bleeding events with continued therapy.
Design Inclusion: FDA-approved DES or BMS, candidates for thienopyridine Excluded: Oral anticoagulant therapy; life expectancy < 3y Randomized: Free from MI, stroke, repeat revascularization, moderate/severe bleeding, and adherent with therapy at 12 months Mauri, Kereiakes et al. AHJ. 2010;160(6): 1035-41. ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT00977938 4 4
Methods – Models to Predict Ischemic and Bleeding Events Development of 2 Prediction Models within the randomized DAPT Study population (N=11648). • Ischemic Model: Stent thrombosis of myocardial infarction between 12-30 months after index PCI. Includes fatal events. • Bleeding Model: GUSTO moderate or severe bleeding between 12-30 months after index PCI. Includes fatal events. • Cox regression, stepwise selection among 37 candidate variables, including randomized treatment arm. In addition, several interaction terms with treatment arm evaluated. P value of 0.05 for retention. • Validated internally via bootstrap resampling, and externally within the PROTECT trial population (excluding randomized treatment arm).* *Camenzind, Wijns, Mauri et al.

Methods – Predicting Combined Ischemic and Bleeding Treatment Effects Predicted Risk in Ischemic Events Predicted Risk Difference in Bleeding Events Predicted Combined Treatment Effect • Predictors of combined treatment effect with continued thienopyridine determined from linear regression and simplified to an integer point score (DAPT Score) • Kaplan Meier of observed rates of ST, MI, MACCE, mortality, and bleeding by treatment arm, according to DAPT Score strata, with test of interaction across strata. Sensitivity analysis without paclitaxel-eluting stent treated subjects. Lower DAPT Score Greater increase in bleeding Smaller reduction ischemia Higher DAPT Score Greater reduction in ischemia Small increase in bleeding

Model Limitations • Post hoc analysis, not powered to examine differences in outcomes between subgroups for individual outcomes • Limited ability to identify rare but important predictors of benefit or risk • Inability to identify unmeasured but potentially important predictors • Models not evaluated in patients receiving ticagrelor or other antiplatelet combinations
Conclusions Low DAPT Score (< 2) NNT to prevent ischemia = 153 NNH to cause bleeding 64 High DAPT Score ≥ 2 NNT to prevent ischemia = 34 NNH to cause bleeding = 272 • The DAPT Score accurately identifies patients with the greatest anticipated benefit vs. harm from continuing dual antiplatelet therapy beyond 12 months among randomized patients in the DAPT Study
Conclusions • The DAPT Score, when combined with clinical judgment, can be a useful tool to help individualize dual antiplatelet duration in patients who have not had a major ischemic or bleeding event within the first year after PCI.
