Summary Slide • APRICOT - 2
APRICOT - 2 • 308 AMI patients with ST-elevation • All received thrombolytic therapy • Angiography post TT and if artery patent repeat at 3 months • Randomized to ASA or ASA and warfarin • Endpoint: Re-occlusion at 3 months. Circulation 2002;106:659-665
APRICOT-2 study Circulation 2002;106:659-665
ASPECT-2 STUDY • Randomized open label study • 999 patients with acute MI or unstable angina • ST-elevation MI 46% • Aspirin 80 mg • Coumadin – INR 3.0-4.0 (Mean 3.2) • Aspirin 80 mg/Coumadin – INR 2.0-2.5 (Mean 2.4) • Mean follow-up 1 year • Myocardial infarction, stroke or death Van es et al, Lancet 2002; 360:109

WARFARIN, ASPIRIN OR BOTH AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (WARIS II) • Randomized multicentre triaql • 3630 patients with acute MI • 60% ST-elevation MI • Warfarin INR 2.8-4.2 • Aspirin 160 mg/day • Aspirin 75 mg/day/Warfarin INR 2.0-2.5 • Mean follow-up four years • Death, non-fatal MI, TE, Stroke Hurlen et al, NEJM 2002; 347:969

Oral Anticoagulants for Local Disease • 831 patients post peripheral bypass surgery • Warfarin INR: 1.4 to 2.8 + 325 mg/day vs Aspirin 325 mg/day • 133 deaths in the WASA group (31.8%) vs 95 deaths in the ASA group (23.0%) • Risk ratio = 1.41; (1.09 to 1.84; P =.0001) • Major bleeding occurred in the WASA group (WASA, n = 35; ASA, n = 15; P =.02). Johnson WB Vascular Sugery 2002
Conclusions • Clear effect of oral anticoagulants (without aspirin) at high intensity in reducing Death, Ischemic Stroke, and MI, with an increase in major bleeds • No apparent effect of oral anticoagulants (with aspirin) at low intensity (INR < 1.5) in reduction of Death, MI and Ischemic Stroke • Promising results of moderate intensity warfarin (with aspirin) – ASPECT-2, APRICOT-2, WARIS-2

CURE Major/Life Threatening BleedDifferent ASA Doses
Optimal Aspirin Dose • Aspirin 81mg – 325mg daily for all patients unless there is a contraindication • Equal Efficacy and Better safety with the lower dose

Rationale to Extend Follow-up in WAVE • Extend follow-up in patients who have reached 2.5 years of follow-up • Events are ACCRUED in a linear fashion there is no plateau Events Time
WAVE Future • Canada must Randomize 1000 patients by June 2003 • Extend Follow-up in some patients from 2.5 to 2.5 years • Encourage Patients to stick with study • Minimize Discontinuations from warfarin and maximize compliance
