Keywords: akutes Koronarsyndrom, Cangrelor, kardiogener Schock, P2Y12-Rezeptor-Inhibitor, Stabile Angina pectoris Cangrelor is selective reversible P2Y12-receptor inhibitor with very short plasmatic half-life, administrated as a continuous intravenous infusion. In large randomized clinical trials was shown, that in P2Y12-receptor inhibitor naïve patients cangrelor reduces ischemic events in comparison to clopidogrel. There are no randomized studies comparing cangrelor with new P2Y12-receptor inhibitors (prasugrel and ticagrelor) in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), however pharmacological studies show better platelet inhibition with cangrelor. According to current evidence, cangrelor should be consider ed in the therapy in patients not pretreated with oral P2Y12-receptor inhibitors. In patients with stable angina pectoris, the highest net clinical benefit would have patients undergoing complex highrisk procedures. Patients with ACS, especially ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who have highrisk for recurrent atherothrombotic events, should also profit from cangrelor therapy, especially in cases of difficult administration of oral medication. According to current real-world register studies, most of cangrelor treated patients are presenting with ACS especially STEMI in contrast to randomized studies. Patients in cardiogenic shock with difficult oral administration of drugs due to mechanical ventilation could also profit from cangrelor therapy. Further possible indication of cangrelor is bridging in high-risk patients requiring discontinuation of oral P2Y12-receptor inhibitors due to surgery. The advantage of cangrelor is shorter half-life in comparison to Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa-inhibitors. As off-label therapy, cangrelor can be considered in selected patients with high bleeding risk, to allow postponing of oral platelet inhibition and better guidance of the antiplatelet therapy.
Kurzfassung: Cangrelor ist ein selektiver reversibler
P2Y12-Rezeptor-Inhibitor mit einer sehr
kurzen Halbwertszeit unter kontinuierlicher
intravenöser Applikation. In mehreren großen
randomisierten Studien wurde gezeigt, dass
Cangrelor bei nicht vorbehandelten Patienten
die ischämischen Ereignisse im Vergleich
zur Therapie mit Clopidogrel reduziert. Es gibt
keine randomisierten Studien bei Patienten
mit akutem Koronarsyndrom (ACS) und neuen
P2Y12-Rezeptor-Inhibitoren Prasugrel und
Ticagrelor, die pharmakologischen Studien
zeigen eine bessere Plättcheninhibition unter
Cangrelor. Nach aktueller Studienlage ist es
sinnvoll, Cangrelor bei nicht vorbehandelten
stabilen Patienten, die sich einer Hochrisiko-
PCI unterziehen, anzuwenden. |
