PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Summary

• The PEGASUS-TIMI 54 study demonstrated that the addition of ticagrelor 60 mg bid or 90 mg bid to low-dose ASA in patients 1–3 years after a MI significantly reduced the risk of the primary endpoint of CV death, MI or stroke

• A directionally consistent effect was observed on all components of the primary endpoint, including CV death

• The benefit of ticagrelor was consistent among major clinical subgroups and by region and continued to accrue over time with a median of 33 months of follow-up

• The rate of the primary safety endpoint of TIMI major bleeding was higher with both doses of ticagrelor compared with placebo

• The rate of fatal bleeding or non-fatal intracranial haemorrhage was low (<1% at 3 years) and did not differ between treatment arms

• Dyspnoea was more frequent with both doses of ticagrelor; however, the majority of episodes with either dose were characterised as either mild (58.1%) or moderate (36.9%) in severity

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Conclusions

• Patients who have had a MI remain at heightened risk for ischaemic events over the long term1–3

• PEGASUS-TIMI 54 is the first prospective, randomised controlled clinical trial appropriately powered to demonstrate the benefit of long-term DAPT in patients with prior MI4

• Coupled with the established benefit of ticagrelor in the setting of ACS, these data support consideration of long-term antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor plus low-dose ASA, in appropriately selected patients with prior MI4

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Rationale (1)• Patients who have suffered a MI are at heightened risk of recurrent

ischaemic events1–3 – The recent APOLLO-HELICON registry highlighted that 1 in 5 patients who remain

event free 1 year post-MI will go on to suffer another MI, a stroke, or die from CV causes in the subsequent 3 years3

– These data suggest that patients with a history of MI may derive particular benefit from intensive secondary prevention strategies

• The role of P2Y12 receptor antagonists in long-term secondary prevention after MI has not been established

• Both US and European ACS practice guidelines currently recommend treatment with a P2Y12 receptor antagonist for up to 1 year after MI4–7

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Rationale (2)• Ticagrelor is a potent, reversibly binding, direct-acting agent P2Y12 receptor

antagonist that has low inter-individual variability1

• Ticagrelor also increases endogenous adenosine levels via inhibition of the equilibrative nucleoside transporter-12

• When added to ASA for up to 1 year after an ACS event, ticagrelor 90 mg bid reduced the rate of major adverse CV events, including CV death, as compared with clopidogrel 75 mg once daily, with an accrual of benefit over time3

• Building on these observations, the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 trial was designed to test the hypothesis that long-term therapy with ticagrelor added to low-dose ASA will reduce the risk of major adverse CV events in high-risk patients with a history of MI

– Randomisation was performed using a central computerised telephone or web-based system and allocation was double-blinded

• Two doses of ticagrelor were selected to study to the balance between ischaemic and bleeding risk in the chronic setting

– A lower intensity of antiplatelet therapy may be required than in the acute setting – Ticagrelor 90 mg bid

• The dose used in the PLATO study and is indicated for up to 12 months of treatment in ACS patients

– Ticagrelor 60 mg bid • Selected from PK/PD modelling suggesting that this dose will provide a lower level of platelet inhibition

than ticagrelor 90 mg bid, but greater mean platelet inhibition and less variability than clopidogrel 75 mg qd

• No ticagrelor loading dose was administered

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Concomitant Therapies

• All patients were recommended to be on standard secondary prevention therapy, including ASA at a dose of 75–150 mg daily – ASA dose was consistent with recommendations for secondary

prevention and with approved dosing labels for ticagrelor

• Additional antithrombotic therapy was prohibited

– Patients must have stopped study treatment for the duration of treatment with any other antithrombotic therapy

– Exception: Modified study treatment protocol

• A modified study treatment option (blinded double-dummy ticagrelor or clopidogrel) was provided to investigators for use if a patient developed an indication for P2Y12 receptor blockade and the investigator’s treatment choice would have been clopidogrel

– Patients originally randomised to either ticagrelor dose received • Ticagrelor 180 mg loading dose • Ticagrelor 90 mg bid maintenance dose

– Patients originally randomised to placebo received • Clopidogrel loading dose at the discretion of the treating physician • Recommended clopidogrel 75 mg qd maintenance dose

• The modified study treatment was administered for a period determined by the treating physician, after which the patient returned to their original randomised therapy

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Statistical Methodology

• The primary efficacy analysis was conducted on an intention-to-treat basis, with each of the two doses individually compared to placebo, as a time to event analysis from randomisation to the first occurrence of any element of the primary composite endpoint

• Analysis of secondary endpoints proceeded in a hierarchical fashion starting with CV death and then all-cause death; additional endpoints were evaluated on an exploratory basis

• An exploratory analysis of both doses combined compared with placebo was also pre-specified

• Safety analyses included all randomised patients who received at least one dose of study drug and for whom post-dose data were available

• Safety was analysed as on-treatment, including all events occurring after the first dose and within 7 days after the last dose of study drug

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Statistical Considerations

• To control the overall type I error, alpha was apportioned to each ticagrelor dose–placebo comparison and a Haybittle-Peto approach was employed to take into account an interim analysis of efficacy that was performed by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee

• Consequently a significance level of 0.026 was deemed to be indicative of statistical significance for the final analyses

• Event probabilities are expressed as Kaplan-Meier estimates of cumulative incidence at 36 months

– The median duration of follow up was 33 months (IQR 28–37), resulting in 56,004 patient-years of follow-up

• Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals were generated using a Cox proportional hazards model and all reported P values are two-sided

• Patients who had dyspnoea AEs tended to be older and more frequently had dyspnoea, asthma, or COPD at baseline; the characteristics of those patients with dyspnoea AEs were similar between treatment groups1

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Other Safety Endpoints

*The most common renal AEs were; elevations in blood creatinine, acute renal failure, renal failure, renal dysfunction and proteinurea. Event rates were similar across treatment groups **Gout AEs were assessed by the investigator as being predominantly mild to moderate in intensity. The number of gout AEs of severe intensity were balanced across the treatment groups Rates are presented as 3-year Kaplan-Meier estimates n = number of patients with events, not the number of events

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Summary

• The PEGASUS-TIMI 54 study demonstrated that the addition of ticagrelor 60 mg bid or 90 mg bid to low-dose ASA in patients 1–3 years after a MI significantly reduced the risk of the primary endpoint of CV death, MI or stroke

• A directionally consistent effect was observed on all components of the primary endpoint, including CV death

• The benefit of ticagrelor was consistent among major clinical subgroups and by region and continued to accrue over time with a median of 33 months of follow-up

• The rate of the primary safety endpoint of TIMI major bleeding was higher with both doses of ticagrelor compared with placebo

• The rate of fatal bleeding or non-fatal intracranial haemorrhage was low (<1% at 3 years) and did not differ between treatment arms

• Dyspnoea was more frequent with both doses of ticagrelor; however, the majority of episodes with either dose were characterised as either mild (58.1%) or moderate (36.9%) in severity

PEGASUS-TIMI 54: Conclusions

• Patients who have had a MI remain at heightened risk for ischaemic events over the long term1–3

• PEGASUS-TIMI 54 is the first prospective, randomised controlled clinical trial appropriately powered to demonstrate the benefit of long-term DAPT in patients with prior MI4

• Coupled with the established benefit of ticagrelor in the setting of ACS, these data support consideration of long-term antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor plus low-dose ASA, in appropriately selected patients with prior MI4
