MIRTOS trial: Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel in patients with STEMI treated with thrombolysis
07 Aug 2020
The MIRTOS trial, which included STEMI patients receiving DAPT and thrombolysis ‘together’, aimed to evaluate whether ticagrelor could improve microvascular perfusion and reduce MACE compared to clopidogrel

Safety of Revascularization Deferral of Left Main Stenosis Based on Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio Evaluation
05 Aug 2020
The main message appears to be that iFR-based deferral of LM revascularization is not linked to an excessive risk of MACE during 30-month median follow-up. Given the historical predominance of angiography-based decision making, this study provides further evidence in support of thinking and acting beyond angiography...

Cangrelor, Tirofiban and Chewed or Standard Prasugrel Regimens in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Primary Results of the FABOLUS FASTER Trial
15 Jul 2020
The results of the FABOLUS FASTER trial clearly highlight that a high residual platelet reactivity persists when targeting platelet activation by inhibition of the P2Y12 receptor either with Prasugrel or Cangrelor, while tackling the mechanism of platelet adhesion thought the inhibition of GPIIB/IIIA might almost completely...
