EValuation of REsidual Platelet REactivity After Acute Coronary Syndrome in HIV-infected Patients. The EVERE2ST-HIV Study.
In Brief
An observational study for Acute Coronary Syndrome and HIV. Completed, enrolled 260 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Elevated on-treatment platelet reactivity is an independent risk factor of major adverse cardiovascular events following percutaneous coronary intervention or ACS. People living with HIV patients have a higher risk of recurrent events after ACS than people without HIV. The investigators hypothesized that this increased risk is driven by higher platelet reactivity. Using a nested case-control study design, HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected patients with a first episode of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention were matched for age, sex, known diabetes mellitus and anti-platelet therapy. The primary end-point was the residual platelet reactivity (RPA) on dual antiplatelet therapy assessed by light transmission aggregometry (LTA, 20µM ADP). The study was conducted in a two large public university hospitals in central Paris, France.
