Brief summary
The goal of this research is to show that a shorter duration of two antiplatelet medications (compared to the standard of care) is safe and effective while reducing the risk of bleeding complications. Bleeding complications can cause significant problems (hospitalizations, need for blood transfusions, and even death) for patients on antiplatelet medications after coronary stents. Researchers hope to show that reducing the time on two antiplatelet agents in patients at high risk for these bleeding complications will reduce the number of bleeding events while not causing any increase in cardiovascular complications (heart attack, stent malfunction, death).

| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| Genotype-Guided Therapy Subjects with high bleeding risk (HBR) on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with clopidogrel and aspirin, that underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were stratified by the CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) allele within one week of DAPT initiation. In this group, subjects identified as CYP2C19\*2 or\*3 LOF allele carrier were given prasugrel or ticagrelor monotherapy.
Prasugrel: 60 mg bolus then 10 mg daily
Tricagrelor: 180 mg bolus then 90 mg twice daily | 29 |
| Conventional Therapy Subjects with high bleeding risk (HBR) on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with clopidogrel and aspirin, that underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were stratified by the CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) allele within one week of DAPT initiation. In this group, subjects identified as CYp2C19\*2 or\*3 LOF allele non-carriers continued with clopidogrel monotherapy.
