ABSTRACT
Background Current recommendations for antithrombotic therapy after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation includeprolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and clopidogrel ≥12 months. However, the impact of such a regimen for all patients receiving any DES system remains unclear based on scientific evidence available to date. Also, several other shortcomings have been identified with prolonged DAPT, including bleeding complications, compliance, and cost. The second-generation Endeavor zotarolimus-eluting stent (E-ZES) has demonstrated efficacy and safety, despite short durationDAPT (3 months) in the majority of studies. Still, the safety and clinical impact of short-term DAPT with E-ZES in the real world is yet to be determined.Methods The OPTIMIZE trial is a large, prospective, multicenter, randomized (11) non-inferiority clinical evaluation of short-term (3 months) vs long-term (12-months) DAPT in patients undergoing E-ZES implantation in daily clinical practice.Overall, 3,120 patients were enrolled at 33 clinical sites in Brazil. The primary composite endpoint is death (any cause),myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular accident, and major bleeding at 12-month clinical follow-up post-index procedure.Conclusions The OPTIMIZE clinical trial will determine the clinical implications of DAPT duration with the secondgeneration E-ZES in real-world patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
