Dual Antiplatelet Therapy and Clinical Outcomes after Coronary Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation in Patients on Hemodialysis

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the benefits and risks of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after coronary drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS: A nested case-control analysis of patients on hemodialysis after receipt of DES and DAPT treatment was conducted using data from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database for the period 2007-2011. Cases of myocardial infarction or death within 1 year after DES implantation were matched one-to-one with control patients. Odds ratios were calculated to compare DAPT continuation with discontinuation. Additionally, a propensity score-adjusted 6-month landmark cohort analysis was also conducted to evaluate the long-term benefits and risks of prolonged (>6 months) compared with ≤6 months of DAPT use. The primary outcomes were death and myocardial infarction. The secondary outcomes were ischemic stroke, revascularization, and major bleeding.

RESULTS: In the nested case-control analysis, patients who continued DAPT had a lower rate of death or myocardial infarction within 1 year after receipt of a DES (adjusted odds ratio, 0.54; 95% confidence interval, 0.36 to 0.81; P=0.003), whereas this association became statistically nonsignificant when compared with patients who discontinued DAPT for the period between 6 and 12 months after receipt of a DES (adjusted odds ratio, 1.51; 95% confidence interval, 0.75 to 3.04). In the propensity score-adjusted cohort analysis, >6 months of DAPT use was not associated with different primary or secondary outcomes than shorter-term use.

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings support that the clinical effectiveness of extended DAPT in a hemodialysis population may be tempered after 6 months post-DES implantation.
