Abstract

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of short-term (6 months) and standard period (12 months) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after using a new generation of eluting drug stent (DES) in patients with coronary artery disease. Systematic review and meta-analysis were performed by searching PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library databases for randomized controlled trials reporting on short-term (<6 months) and standard (12 months) DAPT after percutaneous coronary intervention implantation of a new-generation DES from inception to December 2020. The safety and effectiveness of treatment were compared. The primary endpoints were myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, and major bleeding; secondary endpoints were all-cause mortality, cardiogenic death, any bleeding, stroke, target vessel revascularization, and net adverse clinical events. Sixteen studies (total 53,861 patients) were included. The incidence of major bleeding and any bleeding event in the short-term group was lower compared to standard-period group (major bleeding: 0.99% vs. 1.42%, RR = 0.68, 95%CI 0.57–0.82; major bleeding: 2.16% vs 3.19%, RR = 0.68, 95%CI 0.58–0.79; all P < 0.001), while there was no difference in myocardial infarction (2.16% vs 2.06%, RR = 1.04, 95%CI 0.93–1.17, P = 0.46), stent thrombosis (0.48% vs 0.38%, RR = 1.24, 95%CI 0.90–1.70, P = 0.20), all-cause mortality (1.70% vs 1.88%, RR = 0.90, 95%CI 0.80–1.02, P = 0.01), cardiogenic death (1.79% vs 0.97%, RR = 0.81, 95%CI 0.65–1.02, P = 0.08), stroke (0.72% vs 0.74%, RR = 0.96, 95%CI 0.78–1.19, P = 0.72), target vessel revascularization (3.87% vs 4.02%, RR = 0.99, 95%CI 0.87–1.12, P = 0.82), and net adverse clinical events (4.55% vs 5.01%, RR = 0.91, 95%CI 0.81–1.02, P = 0.09). Short-term DAPT significantly reduces the risk of bleeding compared with standard DAPT after percutaneous coronary intervention with a new-generation DES, without increasing the risk of mortality or ischemia.
